"how many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop" The world may never know. I dont matter either way, I plan on playing there. I dont care who is running it as long as there is no hankie pankie going on...lol I just dont see the point in all the cloak and dagger. If its someone new, just say so...lol what happened to camping and a tw break? Its tuesday. Was at the cabin weekend b4 last, going this weekend. This past weekend was july 4th celebration with the kids. 24th weekend I will be un the Uintahs from thurs nite to monday nite. (unfortunately, i have to come home durring the week to work. That gives me about 4 good days of TW'ing) Wont commit to a big event since I wont be at keys much from friday to monday, thats all. I wonder if our corp will survive during the tourney on classic

 Re: UTW BACK ONLINE WITH 5 NEW GAMES ON 7/4
I guess it wouldn't be a tourny... A game of 3 major corps competing for a win in the game... What would you call it?

not.. what IS a tourny? cruncher decided to call it a semi kinda replacement for never happened SG Memorial. Its just a 3 corp test out the new $hit game.... Classic game A Personally I wish someone would propose a "script user" vs "non script user" challenge tourney. Hopefully between camping season and hunting season...lol 8-10 man corps, low to mid turns... etc... Prob is, cruncher would only get about 4 peeps on her team...lol

 Re: UTW BACK ONLINE WITH 5 NEW GAMES ON 7/4
Scripting vs non-Scripting challenge? That would work if the Turns per day was <= 100, and the universe was <= 500 Sectors. But who's gonna police the 'non scripters' ...I bet they'd sneak in a script-use here and there when no one was looking.. and probably win too! lol

No the HHT 2010 Replay was the tribute game to SG. My corp won that one in 2 weeks or so. It was me, Xanos and T.R.Edwards.

I think that’s the game we’re playing right now on Classic game A and the last time I looked I have a full corp. So, when are you guys going to play something other than grid wars? LOL

Everyone uses at lease a PPT script.

There's no possible way that a corp playing by hand is going to beat a corp using scripts with normal game settings. In a game where the game prevents scripts from running properly possibly, but that wouldn't be script users vs. non-script users would it? By the way Cruncher, if you decide you want a 1:1 corp war, let me know I'll put one together. However, it has to be real tradewars and not some screwy settings that screw up all our scripts.

The purpose of the game on the beta server is to make sure your scripts work, no delays. The game is mostly stock and oh yeah... 3 corps. Ah.. that's what's throwing you guys for a loop, you're all so used to playing 1:1 tourneys that you can't handle the odd number of teams. I'm sorry, but you're playing against players who are knocking the rust off from a decade ago when we were accoustomed to playing opposite a dozen teams in a 5k universe! LOL Three teams is nothing!!!FYI - we do use scripts to trade, haul and colonize. While I have met a few who are proud to say they play 100% manually, they cannot compete unless the game is very small and low turns.

I will admit, I have tried to pdrop, but natually the public scripts are no match, even with my 156 ping. Corp 3 does successfully pdrop in this game, I think corp 1 has also once or twice. My corp #2 consists of Me, Kavanaugh and 3 old returnings for whom this is one of their first games back.

You guys actually going to have a scripters versus nonscripters game? I for one would be on for a game where the twixie pixie's database does not function; say 5K sectors, 1k turns or so, near stock. No restriction on script usage, no rules but game rules, anything the game permits OK, including menu squatting/duping/megacorping. The latest HVS that Stone banged on the swampbbs.net was almost bug free, the only bugs we found on it were not random, affected all alike, and none of them crashed the game or the BBS. Thing is though (grin) there will be no takers for such a game. TWX doesnt work in the original TW and 95% of the players here cannot play well without twx.

With only 5k sectors, a good scripted corp would win very easily. Kavanagh wrote: Thing is though (grin) there will be no takers for such a game. TWX doesnt work in the original TW and 95% of the players here cannot play well without twx. It actually does work, just needs a few text changes here and there. Having the source to the new release, it wouldn't take much to make it compatible.
