I know some of you have some input on the next game bangs for my server so I would appreciate replies to this topic so I can get something going that can get a few more players in and have the games maybe last more then a week.

I heard a few requests for turn based games, what specific edit would you guys prefer for a turn based game?

Obviously I will be keeping the SubZeros, the Star Trek edit seems to entice a few but not many. Should I keep that one too, or swap in something else like Battlestar Galactica or Star Wars. Just let me know what you would like to see. Or let me know what your corps like to play.

Externs will run at 10 PM Central Standard time. Rebangs will always be on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. The times will vary depending on my work schedule, but will always happen one of those days between the hours of 1pm CST and 9PM CST. The bang times will be posted at least 2-3 days in advance with the exact time the game will come online. Please give suggestions to game edits and variants ONLY. Thanks

You need to fix a few other things with your server or you will have more and more who decide to play elsewhere.

For example, for some reason you still have not given us a way to contact you. Posting here takes a week for you to respond. Other may disagree, but, that probably wont fly for most TW players. Question's and situations arise that people would like to have an answer for... waiting a week will not work. Yes, it's your server and you can run it how you see fit. If we don't like it, then we can shut up and go play somewhere else.

You have a few complaints on rules, Truces, etc.. There is a 3 day Truce.. when does it end?? I would guess when V=3 (cause that's how it is 95% of the time). Some, like the guy would went ballistic cause he got killed on V=3, thought that truce was over then V=4. Point being, it varies server to server.
-- Honor system? as HotBlack stated.. that doesn't work very often in TW.

As posted previously:
Some (Quaser posted) would like to play more than 1 game on your server at a time. Having your server only accept the same IP once disallows that. But... it's your server and you can run it how you see fit. If we don't like it, then we can shut up and go play somewhere else.

Did you fix the difference between extern and midnight?? You can have extern run at 10pm central, just make your server time 12am = 10pm central. Easy.. lots less confusion. This difference will drive away players. But..it's your server and you can run it how you see fit. If we don't like it, then we can shut up and go play somewhere else.

(I hope you got this part ((This Time)) so you dont get all defensive like you did previously)

The first 5 times I was just giving suggestions for a new server to help YOU make it better.. also to make it easier for yourself. And.. thats what I'm still doing. But if you don't pay attention to what "everyone" is telling you, your server will not last. It will just be the next one in the count that becomes a ghost.
But, again, its your sever. If you only want 2 players, that fine. Its up to you.

Asking for suggestions for "edits ONLY" (and ignoring the rest) will only make you end up wasting your time.

How about a 1.5k turn Pirates Edit?

I would just say that legion is definitely not steering you wrong.

Also, I would like to see a turn based game of anywhere from 1500 turns per day to 3000 turns per day with a 3-day turn bank. 2 or 3 man teams.
Stock or slightly modified stock with photons on for 2 sec delay.

Keep at it man - don't let attendance get you down, if you keep posting here and keep refining your edits/settings and keep caring that your server is a good one - then people will start to gravitate to it.

In the interest of coming to a consensus - I second space ghost's suggestion as well with mine a close second.

Alienbase Call to Battle edit was like that, plus ISS at 220 holds, CFS 150, Havoc 80, and I think Colt X range was 10. T/L 5 or so. Made for a fun game, Cowboy Adomma and I played it for years. Silence, Traitor, Rider, Maggie, The_Brain, Speedy and a few others used play it a lot also. Medusa for a while, back in the day.

If I could get that edit, I'd bang it.

Legion I will take your suggestions under consideration. Thank you for putting so much time and effort into it. I wish I had the time to spend on such things as you do. I'm not saying that your suggestions come without merit and I will be adjusting settings to accomodate most of your suggestions. I will setup an email account that I will have linked to my phone so I can respond more promptly. Please don't take my earlier disregard for your suggestions personally. The last few weeks have not been ideal for me to be here and cater to the needs of the server or the players due to my real life obligations.

Just keep in mind I am still making adjustments to settings as I have time to accomodate the needs and wants of the players. I am merely testing the waters so to speak to see what the majority prefers. I don't really intend on banging any serious games until I get the minor settings adjusted to everyone's liking. Obviously the past the few weeks have been to adjust some of the bigger issues. Patience is appreciated as much as the input.

I think Sage got it from River Rat. It had a turn bank if memory serves, might have been 3 days. Met Traitor there for the first time around the turn of the century, that was a great game.

thanks GeeDawg for your time.

I'd be in for a low turn (1500 or less) stock, or slightly modified stock, game... 2 day turn bank or so is ok with me

Check out game A - he just banged it this weekend and I am currently the only player - I just ran ztm and looked around a bit so far - so you will not be starting at a disadvantage.
