Friendly advice...

Jul 01, 2004 05:50 Friendly advice...
Maybe I'll make this a double-edged thread. One one hand, I'd like to have people share their crazy winbolo'ing stories like mine: in an open today, I made 463 kills in one game. (If you have crazy stories like this, feel free to post them. I'm sure that people have much crazier stories than I do.)

Now, the downside to this is that it was on this map: X-man's Thunderdome VII, which can be found here: https://www.winbolo.net/mapcollection/info/4086 Since all the starts are closely packed, I was able to make some easy kills. Other people were getting into that as well... the downside to this is that not everyone is really down with a center deep-sea brawl and would like to play their base war games... so this led me to think that because of this, x-man's server might become a little unpopular because of this map. You might consider taking this off the auto-spawner or even modifying it... perhaps only two or four starts in the center and the rest in more scattered positions.

Like you said, x-man, they're your resources, and you can do what you will with them, as you wish. However, I just posted this on the off chance that you agree that this map might hinder your server's popularity. Or it might not... whatever floats your rocker.

I did enjoy racking up the most kills that I've ever had in one game, though. :-)

Post your own stories... bedazzle us. If you have to invent a little... don't worry, but if you start talking about rescuing damsels in distress we might be a little doubtful. :-)

I see nothing wrong with TD7. The edges allow some awesome pillwars, while the n00bs can sink their fleets until they are 100 tanks-deep on the ocean floor. It's my favourite map and will continue to be!

Actually, probably about 1,000 tanks died in deep water in that game. Not all were n00bs, either. The only issue that I think some people have with this map is that people oftentimes like to get easy kills off of people who just start, therefore you count yourself lucky if you ever get back to the mainland to fight. I do believe that I saw messages from other players indicating their disgust with what was happening.
