  1. Which, in turn, is wrong. Why? Because staff in HS has this sexy rule that basically says "Whenever staff wants to ban or silence or otherwise use their powers on someone (in a negative way), they're allowed to do that no matter what others think".
  2. Amen. Going from 1920*1200 to 16somethingxsomething is rather painful. Not nice to have a choice between two black bars blocking 1/4th of your screen, or stretched out graphics.
  3. Psh. I don't have logs of the chat, but when Cerium asked you in team chat about the alias sharing, you evaded the question for about half an hour, and I never saw you answer (afterwards). It might just be me, but that's about as suspicious as running out of a car you "did not steal" and climbing over the nearest fence to escape when you when cops approach you.
  4. Is it just me or are "they" not very good at deciding a time before the end of the week is reached?
  5. A player thought to be Unix could be a referee for DDL, while not actually being Unix, for example. Unix was given referee powers for the DDL, however that other player wasn't given them, but can access them indirectly. = bad.

    Ban 3m 'techs?

    So you're telling me sharppinger and Mass are balanced? 1) Try going back to primary school to learn how to read. That's not what it says. It says they're designed to be balanced. 2) They're quite a bit more balanced than Alien Tech 3m's.

    Ban 3m 'techs?

    You're missing a very important difference between 3m's in leagues and other items in leagues. 3m's are designed not to be balanced. Saying you can beat them (ofcourse you can) doesn't make them any more balanced. All other items are designed to be balanced. And no, I'm not claiming all items are equally useful. Saying anyone can get them also isn't a reason for them to be allowed in the league. Anyone can get them, yes, but do we want this league to give a large advantage to those who have played actively for about 6 months (Disclaimer: I consider actively to be several hours a week, not 12 hours a day, people)? Now, silly people are going to try to counter this by saying "Omg but u n33d liek almost half the exp needed 4 3m's 2 buy other itemz 2!!!". However, that argument fails by itself, as getting half the experience needed is about 1/4th, 1/5th, maybe 1/6th as time-consuming as getting 25k exp is.
  8. fixed.

    Probably not all of the reason, but it was possible to crash the zone with them iirc.
  10. I'd like you to prove that I'm bad, cheers. I couldn't care less about temporal core if it wasn't for the league. At the moment it's basically so that a 4xtemp core vs 0xtemp core is comparable to a TW league of 4 v 4 warbirds, with one side's warbirds capable of taking a hit and surviving, while also being able to rapidly fire twice. Of course, the non-boosted warbirds can win, but it's not exactly fair is it?
  11. Nerf (or removal): -Temporal Core: Makes guns such as phaser almost as spammable as sharppinger, which is a signature. Also gives major bonuses other than spammability of guns. Needs a nerf to make it unique rather than overall whoop-ass stats. Or remove it and refund everyone for all I care.
  12. Fixed.

    PD Weasel, Lanc, probably tweaking around with WB/Jav.
  14. Not like it's difficult to make. [On Kill with PD] - [Check what freq that PD is on (keeping in mind it can't TK so it's always on the non-dying-person's freq in case there are two] - [Add kill to player whose freq the pd is on]. 'Bout 5 minutes of work. Also, there are fools who challenge people like me to a wzl duel for 10k. My wzl happens to have PD.
  15. Neat indeed.
  16. 1) Why does the bot take a 2.5% money share? It's about as risky to use a player's bot as it is to just bet manually. 2) How long does one have to wait until money is returned if the player asked doesn't accept/decline? 3) What happens if, on returning money, the player is not in the duel arena at that time (E.g. disconnected, ?go due to frustration, whatever)? 4) Make the bot accept PD's kills as the player's, please. 5) What happens if a losing player (or winning player for all I care, but losing makes it look more dramatic) goes semi-afk on purpose and flies around in safety for a couple hours, causing the other player to leave? A good bot-writer obviously takes this into consideration and only allows for 5/10 (?) minutes of safety-hugging.

    "is anyone willing to everyone else what you bought"? I'm very sorry, but that makes no sense to me at all. Disclaimer: Spidernl's first language is not English.
  18. Why do a "best lanc" at all if you're going to use kill:death ratio for it. Best Lanc in my opinion would be very complex to do properly, so it's better to just leave that alone.
  19. What's wrong with adding a small 1-2 hour timeframe earlier on the day. That should be doable on saturdays, and if it's not nobody is gonna notice anyway. Edit: Wait, I know the answer: Unix> If the timeframe is bigger, I have to try harder to hide my attempts at winning the league through annoying match-times.
  20. 6pm EST to 10pm EST for PST is 3pm to 7pm 3/4pm EST for California for example would be 12pm/1pm. Which are times far more doable than 1-5 am. Case closed.
  21. Can we please try to avoid things Unix seems to be planning right here in this thread: Not accepting "early" times for the simple reason of preventing the enemy team from getting the players they want in a game? I'd like to just have a nice league full of sportsmanship, that I can play. As in, that I can play before 3 am in the morning. Edit: Also, in my opinion times should simply be "unlocked", as in that any time both teams and a referee can make it should be acceptable. Edit2: Another thing: I think 3-4 pm is quite a bit less harsh for "you guys" than 1 am - 4 am is for those who don't live on that big continent in the west. Edit3: Random question, but who exactly are the "league staff"? Of course including captains in that staff would make the times decided by them very biased. Uhoh.

    Spidernl approves.
  23. ^Open mind
  24. Username: Spidernl Captain: No Referee: No
  25. I can assure you that someone with 30k experience is not as valuable to a team as 3 with 10k experience. Honest.
