I'm in for the game...

I want to be assured that the game files are backed up every day tho before extern as to not have a catastrophe like what happened in the USO... Would be nice if the game is put on a separate really good computer if possible. I'd like the whole mega-corping to be explained a little more in depth tho as to clarify the supposively clear rules if you know what i mean... such as can 2 corps work together to turn one corp really red/blue... anyways... looking forward to reading all the edits/rules when they come out.


Grossman, the twgs is on a stand alone computer, it is on an online web server, and is a stand alone program on that server, and it is on a T1 connection, it runs fast and usually with no problems, barring the network problem that the server host downed the server for, but those cases are rare, and I will be backing up the game daily as well as running game cap files from the players game logs within the twgs as well for all to see what happened, and this will also help for any proof of things, I will also have my external sysop logs avialable for all when the game is over, cause it contains info that should not be seen by players till after the game, like ip's and things of that nature, this log is to make sure no one is duping or cheating.

Well I don't wanna call Vulcan the moderator per say, But if anything was to happen I would approve of him being the one to step in and decide the outcome of the issue, But as sing stated and as I have NO ONE will decide who wins but the corps. Last man standing is just that. But if a server error or some sysop controlled issue arises then if Vulcan is okay with it then he can decide the outcome but it's up to him, I was more along the lines of going with his normal server rules and having issues dealt with as if it was one of his normal games, Not a moderator just a sysop if that makes sense



Listen after the last game where people openly complained about being bored and wanting to move on B4 the double exturn i need to know Whose game it is...I heard this "last man standing" BS in the last game....IF Vulcan says he is in charge of the game im IN..otherwise i am NOT...Im not trying to be anything more then i am...At the last game it was posted this..

This is a no holds bar game.. you want to mega corp fine.. most games doing it quietly and then deny it anyways. But only ONE team will win so you will have to kill off your mega corp to win.

BG

For the very next game on the same server i read this posted in these forums

quote:As for the game-end rules... Aren't you sick of all the stalemates? No stalemates allowed. There will be NO adjudicated or sysop-determined wins. Nobody getting together going "Waah I'm bored, let's shut it down." We play till it's over, even if it takes a year. There's a death lim... it's high enough you can moth and have fun but it's low enough you can't just run into planets willy-nilly (yes, I actually said willy-nilly).

anyways Wouldnt mind playing...But im not sure why this time is supposed to be different then last time...



SG, don't worry, I will be in complete control of the game, and if anything comes up I will handle it, and as Sing and Jester said, it will be a last man standing no matter what, and the rules they stated are and will be enforced, if some one overloads and loses things cause they didn't pay attention, then it is their loss, they can either concede to the others and bow out, and the game goes on, ot they can choose to still play and hope luck favors them and they play to the end and possibly win. Their choice there, but will be no ties or stalemates, or any of that, there will be a winner, plain and simple.

I was going to go with the alias of “Pod Boy”… but I figured that would be just a little to obvious… however I am still considering “The Lobotomizer” as an alternative.

Well we HAVEN'T been corped together...least not yet....as i understand it we are in the "playing pool" to fill empty spots??? of other corporations....Im not anywhere near as talented as Jester and i would rather not be on a "mix n match" corp BUT For the record if the hand im dealt means i have to corp with you..I will and i wont complain about it for a second (publicly).I have learned in that just because i agree with you in the forum(or disagree) does NOT mean you will be a Good or a Bad corpmate.....
