Although it sounds as if it didnt go down too well, so they're going to get
changed!  I'm glad I bothered!  I'll submit me phone bill this week!

Yeah, leave them as voted for. if ppl didn't like it, they should have
voted.

Thanks Aard,

I know there are a couple of problems that were discovered with the system,
like as we have to pick 8 maps what happens if a few all have the same
amount of votes!  I thought of a revote for just those, but that would have
delayed the rotation changes.

Then I thought we could use a randomize type thing, so the ones with all the
same votes get picked at random, but that idea wasnt liked.

So, it ended up being just the top 8 maps in the lists.  So, as it
alphabetical, a map beginning with C and has 2 votes is going to get picked
more likely than a map beginning with S and having 2 votes etc etc etc

This means that unless people look more carefully at whats already been
voted for, a lot of maps may never get on the system.

If anyone has any ideas of getting around this problem, I'd like to hear
from you.  It was only the first time we've tried this, and we had some
problems, but it seemed to work in the end (kind of!).

One other thing.  Towards the end of the voting session people were voting
for maps that either hadnt been voted for at all, or had only one vote and
were at the bottom of the list.  Now whilst its completely up to you guys
what you vote for, it seems a little daft voting for a map you really really
like which has no chance of getting on, instead perhaps of a map near the
top with a few votes all ready to make sure it gets on (if you like that one
a bit).

Does that make any sense?  I dont know, its still to early, and I'm still
wallowing in self pitty!

Carnt you just base it on the time the vote was cast?

as in the maps with 2 votes each - first voted wins?

I could do that but it would make things even more complicated.  It would
then rely on the time I receive the votes in my mail, plausable, I will look
at it.  And thanks for the suggestion.  Thing is theres not really anyway of
me keeping that info unless I started writing it all down, and then that
takes more time.

How about an extra option, which allows people to pick 'one' map as
their most favourite out of all the maps.
This would give the map a kind of double vote, this way you'd have a
sure fire way of knowing which map out of the list people 'really'
liked.

*Me runs off to rename all my future maps to begin with the letter A :D*

I think we'll be lucky to see more than 10 people voting in a month
anyway, people are moving on to new mods, by the look of things.
No game lasts for ever, eh?  
AQ2 has lasted me a good year, which no other game ever has.

Hope so.

TragedyTrousers.
God, I must be in a mood or something.

Heh heh, so only maps beginning with A thro to D eh Bobbins!!  Good idea!
Wonder if it'll catch on?  Seems that most people like C's and S's and a few
T's and U's!! lol

Good idea about the favourite map thingy, I'll look at this too.  Both me
and TT liked what Girri had said about the maps that come in first etc, but
this would only give an advantage I guess at the end of the voting period,
and would mean one hell of a lot more work.

Both your idea and Girri's will be looked at, its nice to be getting some
feedback from all you guys now.

Perhaps the Niche is here to stay!

Thanks for your support

Exactly! I tried AHL, but it's sooo slllllowwwwwww in comparison to Action
Quake2... I've heard that there are other mods out there, but maybe it's
just a rumour.

Aw, you guys.  :)

I'm not deliberately quitting AQ2 or anything, but I do have to admit
that it doesn't hold the same attraction for me it once did.

Maybe I'm getting a bit bored of the same maps, or the same arguments
over them, or summat.  Something's gone a bit stale for me though (it
might be my socks, admittedly).

Er, steady on there!  AQ2 won't last forever, and thats a fact.  
Look forward to AQ3 and AQ4,  I know I am.

(Good luck, by the way ;)

There just seems to be a malaise about the scene for me at the moment,
with many old AQ2 buddies not playing anymore, the continual
postponement of the Super League, the A-Team being a shadow of its
former self, etc.

Maybe it'll perk up again in a while, I dunno.

Hmm...I dunno, I think it's the sudden influx of phone bills I know theres a
lot of us that used to play nearly every day that doesn't any more.....maybe
we should have an AQ2 reunion this weekend?

And as for the bloody SuperLeague, god I'm getting pissed off with
that.....FSB have signed up for the new Wireplay Action league (you don't
need Wireplay to play on it), so we'll be fielding two teams in that, but
the SL is just crap atm...


>Maybe it'll perk up again in a while, I dunno.

You wait.....soon as we get mid-week 0800 we'll be back in force :-)

These are the leagues as they stand

Div A            Div B            Div  C            Div D

FOD             RSRT            AAA               CCS
DCA             FF                FSB                DP
GYG            FEAR            GP                 BST
JB                MrE              PIE                GTT
RoAr            LCA              DOGS            DI
KoQ             KFC              RAP3             GBH
QoA             LSoG            kor                 WNB
SWS            DR                CHAOS         RAF

Pity that FSB ain't in Div B with LSoG, we'd give you a damn good hiding
then :-)

Also, it's a shame about the current state of the rules.....

1. Proxies (such as RW and BW Proxy) are allowed
        Bugger, cos this helps cheating, as ppl using RW can chase cam the
enemy and inform on player positions etc...not nice...

2. No LPB limit
        So we're gonna have at least 2 - 3 clans that are made up entirely
of LPB's ( this is no overstatement either, there are that many lpb's in
some clans...)

3. No Grenades
        I mean I wouldn't mind about the LPB's if we had grenades to help
flush all the sniper bastards out....i mean you ever faced a good LPB sniper
or two? Imagine a whole fucking side of the buggers, the only way I've ever
been able to combat them is a grenade, they soon move and it's on level
terms then... :-(

4. FSB aren't allowed to field two teams
        Even though we were told before that we were allowed (but then the
management of the league changed and everything gets thrown out the window)

Oh well, I'm ranting ain't I? :-)

I think you can just take it that I'm not happy about this league :-(

Eh?  I'm lost, what did you suggest then?

Sure you suggested something?  God I dont want to have to read all these
threads again!  Some kind sole let me know, and I'll correct and appologise
etc.

Funny how more ppl voted for grens than against, its just that the ppl voted
for different numbers of grenades to be allowed. So if votes were taken just
as for/against grens, grens would be in.

On the bright side - you're not in Div B with FEAR. And they're the 
scariest bunch of mf'ers I've ever seen on an AQ server. HolyGoat wipes 
the floor with anyone/everyone on a good day.

I almost wish I was clanned now :)

Too fekkin right it will!
Tradge, I offer an apology on behalf of LSoG, the clan was kickin'
before you joined but lately there's been a *lot* of major upheaval,
(hehe nothing to do with you, just bad timing), Eusa has made the move
to the Republic of Yorkshire, I've been pissed off with my connection
(which I hope is stable enough to play on now), and Hesitator has had a
major change which I hope he will soon announce, and generally a lot of
us have been busy with RL issues that have kept us away from the scene.
But Tradge m8, "Lavaseals are not allowed to quit without permission!!"

It is about to pick up, hopefully the imminent AQ2SL will give you a new
reason to live, after all, we're drawn against MrE.... would it not be
nice to rumble with the likes of Robbie Boy in an official match? even
though I may feel a bit guilty about popping a sniper round in his
helpful head :)

<rallying speech mode>
We're about to witness the dawn of action in this NG, and not one of you
will be allowed to escape the fever that will be generated, when the
world cup was on would you dare say "football, pah! bored of it" ? no,
and when this league kicks off I'm relying on you to be there kicking
the ass of these so called clans. We need you Tradgedy Trousers!"
</rallying speech mode>

Phew, can you tell I've been drinking?

Got it in writing now, so I can tell you about the LSoG plan to take over POL.

Now, including me, there'll be 4 (count 'em - 4) members of LSoG working for
Planet.

Heh. Domination of the Planet. Cool huh?

Hes.
