From October 27th through November 3rd, 17th Parallel will have a special public arena for everyone to enjoy. This include new graphics, sounds, and a new event will be revealed. Pub settings are not going to be changed, nor is the map. After the week is over, pub will go back to they way it was.

Fellow 17ther's, I am sure that most of you received an email from this forum service to go to http://www.mpogd.com/ and vote continuum (once a day if you can!) for the best mmorpg. I know that we have 500-1000 people using subspace (all zones) at any time in the day, if we can get in the top 10 or so of the voting, it may attract players that are playing some of the newer games, or show veterans that we are still around and kicking. When you sign up for that forum, don't forget to mention SSCU 17th Parallel in your voting comments or your signature Thanks for the support, and I will look for your vote!

It has been a fun time, but I've gotten bored of this zone and game, so I'm leaving. There are other things for me to do with my time. I'll probably come on from time to time to see whats goin on, maybe once a mth or somethin like that for a quick jaunt, but thats about all. You all have a fun time, and stay in touch.

Hi, everyone! Tonight me and some friends are going to play Age of Empires 2 The Conquerors. The website is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_Empire...he_Age_of_Kings if you want to look at it. It's a build'em up type game, like a Warcraft of Starcraft. Honestly, it's probably the greatest RTS I've ever played. We'd really like it if you could join us, just let me know later on tonight and I will give you the ip to connect to. 1) http://rapidshare.de/files/34595858/__PC_G..._FULL_.zip.html 2) Unpack it. 3) Use age2_x1.exe as your main loader. That's the expansion.exe. 4) Goto Multiplayer 5) Pick the connection that has the word "Direct" in it. 6) Enter th…

Yes yes.. a very long name for this fun little series. As we have just reorganized staff, and apparently people are interested in the zone and events again, we have decided to put on a weekly duel tournament series. The matches are hosted in ?go DuelT each Sunday (check below for official date and time). We may add more than just one event a week, depending on how things are going in the tournament. --------------------------------- Tournament Results: Week 1 Winner: Cord - Javelin-Only Week 2 Winner: Delic - Javelin-Only Week 3 Winner: Delic - Javelin-Only Week 4 Winner: Delic - Javelin-Only Week 5 Winner: Cord - Multiship Week 6 Winner: Cord - Javelin-Only Week …

I just got done rewriting the !stat command for a new rumble plugin (not up yet). I was thinking of adding a !rank function to the plugin also. My question is, how do the players think the Kill / Deaths and Wins / Losses be weighted to come up with a good rating. Soo add something for each win, subtract for each loss, add for better ratio, and do the same thing with kill/deaths but using different weights for each. What should be added, what should the weights be?

Most of you may have already become aware, but we have a new bot plugin (produced anonymously by NORIAKI) that allows players to be recognized for their hard work and rewarded with credits (that can be used for prizes). I am in the process of adjusting prize costs, point system, and prizes allowed (for each ship), but it is for the most part fully functional, and here is how it basically rolls. There are two ways to get credits from the bot (if you don't count being given them from a moderator): 1) There is a 15 minute cycle in which the bot will count up all your good (and bad) deeds on the field, and then will display who was the top 5 (or 3, depending on the number …

Public Map 1 2
by Emblazon- 28 replies
- 4.2k views
North is rarely used for what it was originally intended for. All-in-all, it adds nothing to the focus of pub, which is the soccer game. Players rarely go north to collect the flags. This part of the map had been removed at one point, and it came back when the zone had to be restored. So, this time around, I thought I'd ask you, the players, how you feel. Do you want it up there or not? If so, it'll stay. If not, it'll get replaced with blank space, and the safe zones will be modified to be in each corner, like the map in ?go publicbeta. Please post your feedback here.

Ok, as you all know the whole zone is dead from around 1am - 6 pm Est, back before the zone went dead we used to have pop certainly from 10am - 6pm when the peakers came on, i propose that we try and bring back the daytime pop so we can play the smaller events and practice the larger ones. The pop was mainly british and you all seemed to have gone into hiding so what would it take for you guys to come on between 10am and 6pm est 4pm and 10pm gmt?

Week 6 has been postponed for the time being. We are trying to decide if we want to end this series and begin with a new type of league. Perhaps you players can help us out and give us some recommendations on what you would like to see be 17th's next league/event. Keep in mind, population still isn't as high as it used to be, so such leagues as JWL and SBL may struggle to get enough participants.

i just want to emphasize that which i said in the latest news.txt. i have uploaded an update for public, but its only a tileset. ive had a lot of ppl request the red&blue version of the tileset be used, and finally found someone willing to retile the map in order to use it without changing ANY of the current map. that person, was Chambahs. Hes been inactive for a while, but hes been staff for several months in 17th, and was staff a very long time ago as well. Hes a very good developer, and very fast. he retiled the entire public map with this tileset in under an hour. some will not understand how big of a feat this is, so just imagine this: right-click left-click..…

Because we have decided to require at least 10 participants for each match of the Duel Tournament Series, and we didn't get enough to show up tonight, this week's match has been rescheduled for 8PM est on Wednesday, August 16. If it turns out well on Wednesday, we may permanently move it to that day. The poll above is just to see what you players think, if it would be better to host it on Wednesdays instead of Sundays.
