@YT99 @Dizaka @faction02 @Feldfeld @ffffffff @badosu TG on next Saturday, 20 CET with SVN version with latest update from Friday ?

How about Sunday, 20pm CET ? Should be possible for Europe and America where most of us are from

Eae manos, While the SVN version is already playable, there have been little to no opportuninities to play a TG. This is due to players not having installed the version, but also to a lack of coordination, which is the issue this thread aims to solve. So please state here if you are intrested to play a SVN TG and also mention when you might find time to do so. Get SVN Version: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/BuildInstructionsGettingTheCode svn co https://svn.wildfiregames.com/public/ps/trunk/ 0ad Or check on Saturday a few hours ahead , if installer provided for this event is available for a simplified installation process of the correct version. Update: Should be ready, here Stans Post: , thanks a lot @Stan` 0 A.D.

If you want to help more you can also perform those steps Launch a random game Test your language's translations and fix them on Transifex. Launch a normal skirmish. Connect to the lobby Play on the lobby with someone Launch Atlas See if everything works there. Open Unit tests demo (To see if there any breakage in displaying entity's) Try mods If you need any help ping me Enable feedback and see if it works (Main menu) Connect to and use mod.io Test replaying new games Test Saving and loading a game. @Issh @Lorenz11 @Dakara @Dizaka @yilmazgng @randomid @SaidRdz @kristian @Boudica @carthage @ValihrAnt @Feldfeld @borg_ @Stockfish @ffffffff @Pudim @JC (naval supremacist) @PhyZik @Talenters @nani @badosu @YT99 @aixo @BoredRusher @chrstgtr

I am sure we all agree that a tournament with less then 50% of games played makes little sense. Also it is unfair for teams that make time, just to see that enemy team did not appear, without even leaving a note in advance. Therefore i open this thread to discussing possibilities for improvement, especially concerning the following topics. If you find yourself unable to formulate constructive criticism that makes at least some amount of sense this is not the thread to do it. Team making: Next time first collect all players and then make balanced teams More fun to play balanced matches -> higher motivation We can make bigger teams so it is more likely at least 2 players have time Disadvantages Complicates process as ppl might not agree with teammates Lower motivation by beeing forced in team with social nub teammates More flexible schedules higher motivation for both teams to find date to play Disadvantages more self organization necessary which did for the most not happen in first tournament Banning Teams that didnt play for some games at all Banning Toxic Players Using Challonge Having Resposible Team Captains (mandatory from beginning)

challonge is definitly a op discovery, it would also be less work to costumize all things

yeah, but we need to analyze well what went wrong, normally would be one more week May Gods havent played Centurios yet for example

Unfortunately we got 3 zombie teams right now. Who wants to continue and who wants restart with other system ?

Animal Farm had 4 players available, accordingly they get full points for win according to rules

First of all raising awareness. The police cant afford to cover racists practice by police anymore if there is public pressure on the responsible executives. Also it is about fighting for cultural hegemony in that area, which is of major importance to make sure there will be no dominating "white supremacist" culture amongst younger generations and elsewhere in society

Eae em fak, i didnt even realize, didnt pay attention when game was setup and then just played. You are rightfully confused as it should have been Lake map. Luckily it was the mistake of enemy team i think eae, otherwise repeat game in case of demand by the losing if it was the fault of the winning team for future incidents.

I think it would be a really helpful feature if scroll speed of map ingame would be costumizable in options/game settings and saved. fpre told me to ping @Stan`

You forgot randomid rating 41 Also you should enter some team eae

Teams are not out of the tournament. Matches can still be played. Although only if the teams that were here today agree which they dont have too as no other time has been agreed upon. If they will not get played until next Sunday i will rate them as defeat. I will add players to graphic.

In some 1v1 tournament i played ValihrAnt and i would bet 1000£ that i am going to lose 10 out of 10. Still i enjoyed the experience. I understand that some player who are above the team average strength might feel like they have been held back and more competition means more fun to some extend. but still each team has the potential to win some games. I would suggest we play for now while we continue to develope more advanced mechanisms for the next season that allow to improve balance

As now we have 7 teams we can still only make 3 pairs/matches so one team has to pause

Is there any team that wants to have a bye week on Sunday ? I

it is only wrong if you count it that way. Answers 2+3 can be counted together for ppl that want change. So if 10 vote 1 8 vote 2 and 7 vote 3 we can still use option 2

http://www.strawpoll.me/20185437 i made strawpoll

Back then people involved in the discussion argued against more strict balancing rules. As i see it we have three options: 1: keep the rules as they are ( and maybe expand the tier list and people can change voluntarily) 2: Enact a maxmimum points per team system as suggested by @badosu, based on @go2die new rating list 3: Expand the tier system to with additional ranks based on the @go2die rating list

At first the main focus was on getting any teams in general to play, and many players had very specific ideas who they want to play with. During the course there have been several ideas added to the discussion, i havent noticed though that there was a consesus of the majority to one of the different ideas, so there was no point in changing it. Me or @go2die will therefore make a poll to see if a consensus can be reached among the participants. Otherwise further balancing will have to be reached by appealing to the sportsmanship of people to form op teams, or alternatively on the tier list expansion.

Wendy and aow have teams as far as i know. I offered LeGendz to join my team. The others have not reacted to possible team suggestions, so i am not sure they are still intrested in participating. Also i want to add the existence of many of the current teams depend on the fact that they were allowed to choose their team partners to a large extend. For better balancing it would have for example been helpful to get involved in making tier list from the beginning.

If you want to propose a rebalancing method and you can convince all teams to change players, you are welcome to propose your method. Although i think for now we should be happy about having 6 complete teams willing to participate and just see how it works out, and just get it started instead of discussing changes for the next 5 years. Even if there are favorites in this tournmanet, doesnt mean there cant be any surprises, as this is the first opportunity to apply advanced team tactics and communication, which might or not have significant impact. Also every league has its favorites. After that is done i suggest we discuss how the system can be improved in the future

Please also note that May Gods Team hymne is to be sung by all players life on discord, with recording before the game

It also will cause great drama and protest if someone wins the game for doing dancing tricks if we remove the rule, they are not " op unit control " as wild clicking around is pretty simple a task. In order to avoid big drama while reviewing potential incididents we will apply the principle of german criminal law: " in dubio pro reo" ( in case of doubt decide in favor of the accused). I guarantee you, in case a player tries to play " honourable " he will not run any risk.
