Test a Cram Reset in ?go base

[Claushouse]

Yes, a 3 minute cram reset would be based on a 15 minute game.

I'm not sure it is necessary to change it for a 10 minute ?go base game. You're getting 3 game segments instead of 5 if the cram reset triggers often. You still want newer players...

[Claushouse]

That's a good idea in principle, Rodney.

I really hate that when your team gets Tek'd, the enemy sharks and spiders warp into spawn, then they rep you 3x delaying you in spawn for 10 seconds, it's cheese as hell. Spiders in a good spawn position...

Anyway, I'm going to stick to the topic at hand from now on, and I'm not responding to anything unrelated.

Whitelisting captains does not ruin base. It helps it. You learn more in close games than blowouts. Good captains mean more balanced...

[Claushouse]

Qan,
A lot of the changes have been implemented and coded in already (very nice job, btw, thanks again for the work), and the results have been mostly positive. Returning greens, removing the terrier effects, and the set greening of terrs has worked...

Hey Rab,
As long as you know your team's time is always on the left or right, that should be fine for colorblind persons, no?

If it's consistent it shouldn't be an issue.



Awesome, I look forward to seeing it in...

[Claushouse]

You're a liar. You ran and hid from everyone. It was so bad the entire arena was coording us where you were. We all made it a priority to knock you out for refusing to fight, running, and hiding the entire game in the corners.

Your excuse for...

[Claushouse]

Yeah I think finding 8 captains of that caliber would be been impossible in the time given, and it was surprising so many people signed up late.

Ageed on the 6-Stars. This was my feeling on 5-Stars way back... it's essentially the same pool of...

[Claushouse]

You're a troll, you add horrid go base lines, and hide and refuse to fight in elim. You're a detriment to the game.

I've trained dozens of players over the years and helped improve their play, and run multiple seasons of multiple leagues, and...

[Claushouse]

Since staff won't input a whitelist in ?go base for captaincy and I just played another 0-10 game sitting in mid with our team not able to break cram once, let's test a cram reset in ?go base for 2 weeks.

If either team holds the flag for 3 consecutive...

[Claushouse]

a 2:00 is full information. I only need to look up and i get the full information of what I'm getting.

If it's 1:02, I'm getting a burst in 2 seconds.

If its 0:07 I'm getting a port and burst.

A 1:00...

[Claushouse]

There's a super simple solution to cram ruining games where good sharks maintain their edge:

If any team holds the flag for [decide on a time here] minutes straight, warp everyone back to their respective ears with full energy and prizes and reset...

[Claushouse]

A 2:00 minute timer is 100x better, because the port is the one that is irregular. I don't want to look up at 0:42 and wonder if I'm getting a port of not... a 1:00 minute timer is bad, because you only get a port half the time.

A 2:00 timer...

[Claushouse]

This is roughly how the game should look while basing:



A) The current game clocks on the right are HORRIBLE. The text is insanely tiny, the font is awful, AND you need to read the names of the squad above the timers to know which...

[Claushouse]

Good idea Qan, thanks.

I can't speak for others, but in talking to people, it seems most players opinions are similar to mine. Not a lot of terrs to talk shop with, but Mikkiz felt the exact same way I did about the terrier changes.

Good work Major, thanks.

Stats were helpful in writing my Semi-Finals preview.

The TWDT 2019 Semi-Finals take place Sunday, February 24th. Remember, the playoffs start one hour early. Plan accordingly.

In TWDT-D, warbirding powerhouse Terrorist will take on a struggling

Thanks for the write-up, Holy Ship.

The Gladiator-Power match was straight fire. I caught the last 10 minutes of it and it was amazing. Some nice terring in that match, I thought Heaven and SpookedOne played well....

[Claushouse]

I think this would be my biggest issue with this season.

6-Stars in previous seasons were inflated to 7-Stars. The 5-Stars are NOT worth 5-Stars... way back, there was a 5-Star slot, and I removed it, because it was unbearable. Every team's 5-Star...

Key Changes:

-No more interaction with greens
-Port granted every 2 minutes
-Burst granted every 1 minute

Only played one game, but my initial impression is that I liked it. I felt like it makes terrier...

Congrats to Legio XI, Terrorist, Thunder, and Gladiator on making the playoffs!
