Now, what really would be a hoot is if you, KB and myself all ended up on the same team in this lottery game. LOL

I would also suggest that two things be avoided if this is to be held on a v2 server. Do NOT use the "time limit" restriction and use the "non-MBBS" setting or turn off mega-rob. There are two major bugs in those areas that I know of.

Would you care to elaborate?

I elaborated when JP was talking about fizing bugs on v1. That was before v1 became v2. That didn't really help our cause. So no, I won't elaborate again.

Now back to the original subject.

Hmm, I draw the line at 5K sectors, thats all TWASSIST can handle - why 3K?

Well, 5k sectors, 3k turns. With a 5 man corp I'll have every dead end and 2 way explored in 2 days or less, so if I were you I wouldn't be planning on building any planets in a game like that. Also CIM hunter is a very powerfull tool, so gridding out a new cashing area might be a bit dangerous and could severely hinder your cashing ability. It would be the same danger for everyone, but not many players with the exception of Sing or Parrothead are as good at datamining as I am.

Edit: I see what you were pointing at now. What I meant was I draw the line at 3k turns in a tournament. Not sectors.
The original post was fixed.

Except that I no longer play the game as I pretty much quit with V2 coming out. COD BOPs 2 on the PS3 is about all I do now, and even it is getting boring. I wish TW had 1/10th (or even 1/100th) of the players as COD.

I agree with you that in teaching a lower turn game makes a person pay attention to what they are doing and what they are trying to accomplish a lot more. High turn/unlims are weekend (sometimes a few hours) games, and best as private server games setup for safety to learn commands. If you learn efficiency in low-turn, it will translate (most of the time) into a better high-turn game.

The idea for the game sounds good, and I hope you get some participation - keep the game alive.

Hope everyone is doing well, take care.

Good to see you still around Prom. Yes, the game is pretty much dead now. A lot of players left because of v2. I doubt very much that there are enough players left to have a tournament anymore. Good luck with future endeavors.

There is a requirement to have one or more V2 games under your belt in order to play earlier versions? What planet am I on.

If that were true then both v2 and v1 is dead. They'll never make it past v2 before they get bored and quit. It looks like the idea for this game is quickly going downhill also. Not many takers it seems.

I thought we were done with the v1 vs v2 debates, or those were to be kept in Hyperspace forum. If you'd like to continue discussing that topic with me, give me access again.

Otherwise....

This thread is about a lethal lottery game. Please get back on topic.

I'm answering questions that are directed at me. It seems that you are off topic. After all you haven't even said you were going to play this game yet.

Well I guess the whole point is mute cause it seams to me the only people interested in playing this type of game is you, me and Cruncher. That's kinda sad.

I might be interested in a lotto game. When is it going to be?



Gee whiz, give it a few days at least. Some folk don't check in hourly.
