More importantly than turns, I dont want to play an edit that is totally skewed. CtB is one of the good ones, cit times are down, and ships are awesome.

No way we're gonna play one of the unlim edits you suggested big D


That's fine, I don't necessarily need to play. I've have a good game going at the present time. You're the one looking for a game. Stock games are boring btw.


I've banged low (950), medium (3k) turns and unlims on my server and the low turns games just don't have a lot of players and that is what I've also seen on the majority of the servers around. Part of the problem I think is the lack of dedicated corps that are out and since low turns need a coordinated effort of somewhat skilled, patient players, that leaves the majority of players/corps out. I don't play turn based games below about 20k turns so I may be way off base.


I agree with you. Unlimited games draw the newer players and the players that want the wham bam thank you maam effect, medium turn games (2k to 5k) draw established corps and later veterans, less than 1k seem to draw no one. Stock games especially flop. I've banged stock games with 1k turns or less and advertised it 2 weeks in advance and had maybe 1 player show up. I do the same thing with a medium turn or high turn game with a popular edit, and 10 or 12 players show up.

Good luck with your server.

am i going to need it? i guess its just as well - i don't believe in luck.


Well I know no one is suggesting that any wrong doing has been done on your server in the past. I trust you and RP as sysops to the fullest extent. Sounds to me like more of a disagreement between what the rules were and what they weren't in a past game that should stay in the past...

SG and i are agreeing to disagree about the intentions of RP in BOTE. i don't feel the sting quite as accutely as SG so i understand his perspective. i just hope that in his zeal to keep everyone aware of RP's mistakes he doesn't damage the already fragile state of this game that we all love.

Sorry for hijacking this thread. Count me 'in' on the revstock bang - i think i have fixed a few mistakes in the edits in the recent past so whoever wants to bang it let me know and i'll provide and update - or if its CTB thats cool too - i just rarely get to play revstock hehe.

i don't really want to to turn this thread into smack,,,But i also don't want you,Big D, or anyone for that matter to think im implying any wrong doing at REV's ,,,Nor is this a simple case of a disagreement of the rules...The Sysop in Question Agree's he Broke the Rules and then Kept it a Secret..In order to benfit one team ....This is Fact,,not disputed or even debatable..This didnt happen on REV's TWGS..My problem therefore lie's with the Individual not in any means with the server.
