No go on my end, bro.

get timeouts all the time. :(
dont know whats wrong about me.

the 8080 port might now work for some.

make sure you don't have another kdice window open too.

deleted cookies. closed browser. forwarded ports on router. did some vodoo involving virgins still get timouts.
I guess i should work on the voodoo part to be part of the 16max testing crowd.

hard to get a game there, there are only 2 players on this server.

and had serious plobems when i made a new window to old server, trying to invite some people.

got somehow kicked out of both servers...

well after some advertisment, in 8-dice kdice we got to play 2 games on new style.

My review:
* the endgames are actually faster, at the very very end (2 players) you have still a short 16v16 game, but as one player quickly goes under 16 fields he looses fast after that.
* Its faster certain who is going to win the game (maybe a result of the even start distro)
* It hurts a lot, if your big-stack gots lost. e.g. your only 13 dice stack looses against 8. Big ouch!

A yes, comments were i guess positive and negative.

You wont be able to make anything now, without some people complaining that everything was fine the way it was :o)

Overall i think the game is more balanced with 16 dice. Although I'm not going to switch until people become comfortable with it.

If you haven't played try to organize a game by getting 7 people to go over.

So far the feedback is as follows:

Positive:
- powerfully awesome (tech)
- game stays active much longer, (no 8x8 showdown)
- reduced need for alliances, which I think were due to the 8x8 end game.
- its hard to figure out who will win - there is no clear winner until late in the game

Negative:
- longer games, (I don't think this is true, i think it may seem longer since the active part of the game is longer)
- bigger loses, its hard to loose 16 dice in one attack
- new strategy... its hard to change once you've learned to play the game one way.

1 more negative: It's way too random at the higher stages. Probability tells us that the more dice you have, the more random it becomes. I saw a guy lose an 18v11 battle ... bye 3 points. I think at the higher stages, it becomes even MORE luck oriented than 8 dice games.
