What is it with jerks who advertise what a great board they have and how they need some new players,then you show up and they blast you outta the water like so much fodder?20 mins into a bang and all 3 ships destroyed by the same guy camping out at SD.2 guys there had high exp 10 mins into the game and everyone elses ship was destroyed.Why didn't they just advertise their need for fresh meat? Oh,..that's right,..NO ONE WOULD SHOW UP!Maybe it's not their fault after all,..I probably deserve to get screwed by a sysop running a script on his own board while he's gagging his lolly in the other room.Oh well,..be running my own board soon so until then,...who's got fair game? :]

Zipscrew-

   If you're still interested, the Deep South has a few games going.  Some are underway, but most have limited players.  Come on over and join up.  Look for a new game called 'Turns Matter', I've got allot of suggestions, and I hope this one will be worth everyone's time.

   Also, if you have any suggestions, I'm more then willing to listen.

   If you have any questions, please ICQ# 89002101, AIM CptnKnox or email me at mangol@thedeepsouth.org

   I look forward to seeing you at theDeepSouth.

Doesn't the Deep South belong to Stonewall?

I've been playing at thedeepsouth for 3 days now and I must say,...It's enjoyable! Last night I completely destroyed someone and it was fun!poor bastard probably didnt have any turns left and thanks to some luck I stumbled on his home sector...He's in for a surprise!His entire existence reduced to so much navhaz.. :]

thnx for the tip mangol...you and stonewall got a great board there!check it out ppl!

Unfortunately Zipscrew not much I can do to stop people from attacking people in a game of twars besides putting up a day or two restriction on fighting, I do not play my system anymore I have to much **** to do with fixing up webpage and school etc, I currently play one game on a different system.... I cannot control the actions of people who play on my site, I have posted fair rules and enforce them when possible, maybe next time I bang I'll have to put up a 2 day build up rule so people dont get driven away by a couple of losers.. Anyway from what I can see Game isnt locked down in any means by anyone and could easily be won by anyone, its a shame to see people quit a game after getting blown up once, I have put alot of work into my system and it would be nice to see people stick it out for more than one death....

Well I suppose I was just going off because I lost 3 ships 20 min into the bang, but It's obvious what was going on,...by destroying everyone as they came into the game,..(whoever) was insuring they would be dominant(kill=exp+$ - death=no turns)...let's just say that I realize what truces are for now and leave it at that. After all,..as I've stated before,...I'm new(REAL new!)but no hard feelings Thug...I'll be back with more exp and have some fun... :]

Eheheh no hard feelings, I have a feeling Every game banged from now on will have at least a 2 day truce, I wasnt very pleased to see two people destroying everyone either, i rather see a game with 20 people playing than 2 people kiling anyone who enters the game.. Like I said though Game is not locked up and if more people started playing I think could be fun for all... Worse case scenario Game B is banging sometime soon and can play that till game a is banged with Truce... Sorry to all who got cheesed, learn something new every day

I only killed one person and it was not a script. When he hit my fig I warped in and attacked with 500 figs. Afterwards I realized that was not enough and chased him into the next sector. My corp mate did most of it. (I can't speak for him) I am sorry that you were not pleased. I got offered an invite to the corp so I took it.

One way to stay ahead is to not let the people build. In doing so you also waste a lot fighters. It is a trade off. If you play any BOTE or other tourney's its the name of the game. A lot of games I play that is not the name of the game. On Cyber's server It was 4 days before I blew anyone up. It can be very frustrating I know. I am sorry that it happened to you Zip.

Also, most of the time it only happens on the first day. After that it is a liability to sit in Fed Sector when your not fedsafe. Another way to keep this from happening Thugarl is to make the starting ship come with 5000 fighters. It doesn't stop it but makes it much more difficult to do. You can only get around 10000 fighters in a limited turn game right off the bat (more if your lucky and they ship setup is in your favor). So Max will selling the ship you can have 15000 figs after your turns. Thus you can only pop a few people and its not worth it.

The way you have it you start with 30 figs. It is easy to pop someone when you have 10k figs and they have 30. I think you have done a great job on the ship and planet mods. It doesn't seem to move the balance of power into the red or the blue. I managed to make it through into the Stardock twice at the beginning of the game. My helper pops figs and keeps moving automatically. I think thats why I was offered the corp.

Again, sorry zip. If you try back again you will probably find the game a little more hospitable.

OVID, Tsk tsk I thought you were better than that lol

Hehehe,

Dont start with me Zepher

Admittedly,I have a better understanding of what happened to me than I did,why only last nite,at the Boneyard(fresh bang),I was AFK during one of my own scripts(like 60 sec) when what should I discover upon my return,..Oh..i'm dead now...thank you very much.

| Again, sorry zip. If you try back again you will probably find the game a little more hospitable.|

I'm sure it would be alot more hospitable...if I were in your corp!haha
since our encounter,I have attained my first kill plus a dozen...there is still alot I don't know about or understand in this game...but I'm learning fast. Just this week I learned a new word...can you say TACTICS?...I knew you could!..

Sounds like you have moved on. That is good. Hope to play against you in the future.
