My father in law was telling me over Thanksgiving about this amazing bartender at some bar he frequented who could shake a martini and fill it to the rim with no leftovers and he thought it was the coolest thing he'd ever seen. I then proceeded to his home bar and made four martinis in one shaker with unfamiliar glassware and a non standard shaker and did the same thing. From that moment forward I knew he had no compunction about my cock ever being in his daughter's mouth.

Originally posted by Stabwound View PostI'd love to see base partly return to its roots, just to see what happens. Get rid of the zoners, and no longer have it running 24/7. It probably doesn't matter if it's in a private arena or not, but it kinda makes it feel more "special" I guess. Encourage players to go into pubs and invite a couple of people in to play! You'd be amazed at how many basers got their start this way back in the days of the private arenas. HELP new players, and don't yell at them or be a dick. When I first started playing in #myth, someone actually explained to me how to properly time and play in shark (Triceratops... RIP) which is unheard of in this day in age. Automated base was fun for a while, but it sucks for the long term survival of the game. Another important aspect is that because it wasn't run 24/7, it was something to look forward to, which made it a lot more fun.
Wow, even just thinking about this is really cool. DO IT NOW. Down with 24/7 base!!!
Stabwound for Prez
Wark for VP
Great ideas.

New players from public dont go straight to play twd and that's a fact. They need first practise and get better in wb or jav. Ok they can do it in public but it's not the same thing. Elims are more filled with action (or atleast should be) and way more interesting to play because you got a goal, goal to win others.
I think that new player route goes like Pub -> Elim/javduel/wbduel -> Twd.
No squad will get players from pub.

didnt read the larger posts in the thread. But I did not find no bots fun. <ER>'s like wark and spacehiker did a great job with events but with manual hosting there are always gonan be some issues. And the 15v15 basing was a HORRIBLE idea. Not gonna blame wark tho, hes a wb who hosted a basing event while the rest of the baser er's just sat on their fat asses :turned: .
population: this game was at its peak wayy back when people joined this game and the graphics of other games weren't as good as they are today. So people would try it out and play more and get addicted to this game. Now, when people join they see the gameplay and it just doesnt seem appealing for them to stay cuz of the graphics n shit in other games and the few that do try it will stay and play pub for a while but that just doesnt cut it, it gets boring and they leave. They only learn about the pub part of the game and leave. need ppl to learn about other arenas and get offered to join squads.
Most people stay around cuz they got a friend who shows them the stuff or they somehow learn on their own while many who tried it dont learn the stuff and leave. For me i dont think i would've stayed unless grandmastahs showed me around and all1:CrazyKillah> oder if i olny knew u irl u would be dead and i would be in jail

As far as the hosting goes, im not saying that we shouldn't host with bots I do realize it makes things easier, hell even my fingers got tired of spamming commands to people. Im just saying I would like to see more staff/player interaction, that is really a key to fun events. That and making sure there are enough people in each arena so that everyone is having fun.Rabble Rabble Rabble

Now that we have ppl spread out everywhere, we dont have games filled with action, we just got games where are only about 10 old players just playing because there's nothing better to do.

TW isnt suppose to be about TWD or TWL. TWL is just a special thing that we have. TW is suppose to be a zone where ppl can play different kind of games everyday. It's like playing a roleplaying game. You just advance your skills as much as you can. You can't really do that "easy" anymore if you're a new player. All you have is public, it's the biggest arena at the moment and that's just wrong.Devest.proboards.com

i'm glad wark started this thread because he articulated my views a lot better than i would've been able to. we've spread ourselves too thin and without bots we all seemed to come together more than we have in a while
we acted like a community when the bots were down and ultimately that's what made this game as popular as it was. why are all of you twats still playing? the community! maybe it was just my imagination (and that of many other people, apparently) but we seemed to act, fuck, kinder? when the bots were down. i saw more squadless pubbers in go base when it was manually hosted than i have in a long while.
but whatever, i support wark and i hope shit gets done right.Originally posted by turmiojeenyuss seemingly without reason if he didn't have clean flours in his bag.Originally posted by grandI've been afk eating an apple and watching the late night news...

Reduce automated arenas,
Take away ?go afk (Id rather see people afk in go javs or elim for example)
Try to have a basing game hosted again at for example ?go #mythrandir.
I agree on everything stabwound said, The so called "pro and old" people seem to be really against new people, never even think on add them into a base game (javduel/wbduel) to give them a chance, If a new guy wants cap and he asks "how do i add.." People start yelling, "WOW TAKE AWAY CAP TO SOMEONE BETTER , HE CANT EVEN ADD WOW" Why not just help him, he wont get better by reading that. In the end we wont have any new people in basing /javing/wbing for that matter. New blood is the source to success right now, Dont scare em away, help em.
Oh and less bots/arenas, This shit is getting too automated, more Interaction between staffers-players-vets-noobs please.Last edited by Soilderz; 12-20-2008, 08:25 AM.https://soundcloud.com/annux-1/annux-relief
