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? |

1. " if you think reporting PGAs, point famers, spammers, or cheaters in general is abuse, then may be i should be on that list together with lesplaydices, 119Legend, Dicelord, idice, kdicetool, rnd......and the list goes on and on...... " 2." I really think that we should have a rules page.......take a look at some of the more established forum, they all have rules with something like "personal atacks and abuses are not tolerated....." Are you a joke or are you just making one ? Hypocrit, 1984 fucked up fascist little wormtongue wannabee. You cant play and you are an idiot everybody dislikes you and you talk about ppl you have never played because you either don't dare or just don't get above that magic 1 k line to sit in the really interesting games. You comment on a game and a community that you don't understand. Learn the game and get to know the people. It is always easy to comment on things without getting your feet wet. My advise less bullshit more playing... |

Or, when someone with the peace sign attacks their ally, the sign auto comes down. |

at 2:40 PM, Saturday December 22, 2007 EST Those are some good suggestions. I'm not sure what the motivation would be to make your truce public- strategily the less people that know about your truce the better.
Keep in mind that the changes are really just to improve performance to scale to more people. I haven't been able to work on getting more players since Jan 07 because of this. I also haven't had time to get through the ideas section because this performance thing was more important and I was swamped with the book. (btw, kdice players are in the acknowledgments for the book) So I don't want to introduce many new features with this release since in is a substantial change in technology and may introduce new bugs. Instead, once the new version is stable I'll start tackling the ideas. |
