 Re: B.O.T.E. 2008 In PlanningRunaway Proton wrote: I've had it in my mind to host another BOTE game in August or September and figured I'd better start getting signups for it and see if there's any interest. There will be a few rules this game. First and formost is there will be no scripts allowed like buyouts or any other scripts that peg my cpu when in use. Any node I find (and I can view by node) that is running way beyond normal use will be disconnected when I find it, and that user will be given 1 warning not to use it again. If it's in play by that player, or another member of that players team, then the player running it will be disqualified. FInd it in use again, and the team will be disqualified. There will be no player subs once game starts, no exceptions unless the team captain of each team agrees. I will collect the IP of each player when we start. I will terminate any node I find with a different IP once game has started. I know some of you might have dynamic IP's and I can work that out with you. Looking for players and team captains both. If nobody signs up for captain, teams will be randomly assigned. If team captains sign up, I'll allow them to pick from the pool in a fair manor. I'm advertising on other boards to attract attention, but honestly don't troll the sites like I used to, so I might not see your signup if you signup elsewhere. My bandwidth is not as good as I had last game, and there might be a few lag issues once in a while as I have one connection and do have to download large files time to time. I'm hoping I've learned from my mistakes last game, and we can have a fun game this year. If there's anything positive about any of the above feel free to clarify. |

Man, after that he said he would keep BOTE in the original format, then announced he would not host it. What's the point of coming in after the fact and kicking him when he is down? _________________ If you have a building game, they will come...

Re: B.O.T.E. 2008 In Planning Gotta love the spirit cooperation we've got here... lol.
Tell you what guys, all of ya'll that have been retired for the last several years and felt like coming back just to make a dick statement w/o even bothering to play a game: just go back into retirement, k? We've gotten along just fine w/o you and don't need the attitude. This whole stupid argument just goes back to the whole SG versus RP feud, why get stuck in the middle of all that? _________________ May the unholy fires of corbomite ignite deep within the depths of your soul... 1.

A sysOp that went through the grinder is wanting to try and do a better job of hosting a game, and in turn try and generate some interest in the game is the primary positive. The Op is also providing some guidelines for the game. Trash talk can and will be made about my statements, but as some like to say, the statements are fact based on the Op's post. _________________ / Promethius / Enigma / Wolfen / "A man who has no skills can be taught, a man who has no honor has nothing."

Had you posted this weeks ago, I might have tried to argue my point, but not in the forum, in Private. However I said I'm done, and I'm done. As far as I'm concered, many thanks to the players that have recognized my efforts. I wish we could have done this.
