I'm going to have to go with veg on this. Yes.. cord is alive and decided to read ssforum. Anyway, even when me and emb were running the zone, we would get 30+ at times, but we had to go through chats, talk to people we knew in other zones, and contacting vets, saying "we are gonna have an event tonight and a public game". People don't just "show up" randomly anymore like they used to when there was events going on daily and there were people to host them. While players did come and play public some when we were at the helm, it was mainly people who were either ad'd to, or people who were hoping to play one of our nightly events like sblball or javwar. I wish we could get those events going again, because after they occur, people play pub for at least half an hour or so and you can take screenshots (I know I, and probably most of you, have several of different pubs and events that have anywhere from 25-38 people)

!@#$%^&*o. I cannot even get the continuum .40 setup to run. I click on it and it just sits there. I have tried to do run as, but get an access denied error 5 message. Any suggestions?

Hurray for random people coming back and reading ssforums. Haven't seen these since last year sometime, but I just enjoy the fact that everyone is still whining to mike that the zone is failing.. We know this.. Vile, Telson, Vegita, Emblazon, anyone who has sysop'd in the zone realizes how much work goes into getting just 10 new people to play the zone. I know delic thought he was gonna dominate and continually bugged those of us who ran the zone that we weren't doing our jobs, but I hope he is finding out that even having a consistent population at nights is a wild success for this obsolete game. Cheers

Wtf.. my post was the same for years! Hey look! The sexy guy.. he's here... Wait for it.. NOW. Cord has entered That is all

It's true. We worked on and completed a ton of new events for the zone to play, and since vile tried a bunch of new ideas (and people begged for the old pub) and nex did nothing, we put the old public back and tried not to change it since people wouldn't stop saying they wanted it (when obviously we know that they didn't). But anyway, it was about keeping the zone fun and giving the people what they want, and we tried that. If Delic wants to give it a whirl, we are definitely for it, either way, the upper staff will be resigning whether the zone dies or not, let's all laugh at delic and talk trash at how he killed the zone now! Cheers

Sure why not, we have all (upper staff) basically agreed that we are too busy and the zone is way too long gone to try to revive, let's give delic a shot at it, since he has given every staff member crap for the past 5 years about how he would do it better. Delic, revive the zone. Laff.

After being advertised widely by a couple people, and me getting some friends in Metal Gear, Hockey zone, and Trench Wars to post periodics and allowing me to post in their forums, we are in the top 10!!! We are currently sitting at #9, with about 5 days left before the end of the month. Make sure you are voting every day if you can, I believe top 5 is out of reach this month, but we can get to the #7 or #6 position if you keep voting!

Make sure that you turn sound on, it's definitely worth it. Emb did a great job on these gfx so hopefully we can get some good organized events going, possibly with help from some other zones as a Halloween treat (and if they try to trick us, I'll kick their !@#$%^&*). Au revoir

Definitely not a horrible idea, the problem would be making sure we had updated email addresses and that players would actually be involved or interested enough in upper staff emailing them when we had event news. Quite possible to work though..

We are rising through the ranks of the voters!! I also posted in the RSHL forums and my team forum for HZ (where just a FEW more people see the information than we do currently ), and we started out at about 38th place early this morning. We are now closing in on 31st, with only about 8 more votes to get into the top 30 after that. Vote people, VOTE! That is all.

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!

^^^ Basically agree with all of what emblazon said. However, we do have another way of advertising and that's through your personal aim and msn accounts. I personally have like 25 continuum people in a section of mine and out of those, probably 15-20 would play 17th if asked. So if you have friends on there, let them know about the event as well. Like Snoo said, we would be glad to organize a meeting with fruity, and allow him to run this set event. Just let us know. Additionally, we may not want to say it will ONLY be jwl and then you can leave, we could possibly throw in a premier of a much anticipated other event that a few of us have been working on for a while. More info later..

Dark Nexus for life. Are you still working on that pub bot with the purpose of opening the doors to score when 2 of the 3 flags were picked up by one team? I'm still waiting for this bot.. Let me know.

By the way, how many people were in game when you scored your 74 goals. Because it requires there to be at least 3 or 4 playing in a certain time period to give out credits. This protects players from coming in at 5am and just scoring and scoring to get hundreds of credits. Just fyi luco

While I agree with some of the arguments for north, that it is part of at least this generation of 17th's tradition, I still think that it just provides more of a distraction to the balling game. Yes this has been said already, and rightly so. The only problem with removing the north is that 17th starts to mold into something that looks like powerball zone with different settings. Either way, I still voted aye on proposition 121 - Removal of north base.
