Lets discuss the new kdice version.
I'll try to get it out for Jan 1 with some changes: - the look will be closer to the current kdice. - the chat box will be put back to normal. I'm hoping to leave the flagging change in since it helps solve the problem with the last player not wanting to flag (this happens because last knows that others can flag for last and waits for that). The flagging is more like the old flagging but without the ninja flag problem. The strategy with the new flagging is that you can flag to single to a stronger player that you're not a threat. You're flagged at your current position, for example 2nd, and you can't place better. You'll be automatically knocked out when in this case there are only 2 players left. This also means the player in 3rd knows that you can't flag for third and will more likely opt to flag. Consequently, the player in first will attack 3rd knowing that 2nd isn't a threat. And since point farming is gone there is no motivation to attack second. Thoughts? |

Next. |

at 3:45 PM, Wednesday December 19, 2007 EST fucking hell man, I'm just giving some open critique of how I see the game. I'm sure you think you're heading in the right direction, and for all intents maybe it'll work out, but I just don't see that happening with the way the majority of the 1ks play. It's still very elitist, which you tried to fix, but haven't.
I distinctly recall saying to you that you need to fix the pga thing, I even gave some ways you could do it. For the record if I was still in pga-mode, I'd be doing a hell of a lot better than I am now, especially considering you haven't fixed the proxy problem. I just play this game for fun now, and comments like that make me honestly wish I didn't donate to this site. |

at 3:55 PM, Wednesday December 19, 2007 EST I don't mean to attack you int, just responding to some of you comments about the flagging you made at the 1k table. I guess you were joking.

at 4:00 PM, Wednesday December 19, 2007 EST That's fine, and yes I did say that about the flagging, but I didn't think you were actually in the room.
and yes, I was joking. I mean clearly if I were pga, my pga would be second. |
