Decline 12 - Like Lambs to the slaughter *purr* [ We need more catnip! ]

[KoolNoodles]

Game's open: http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo.cgi?game=Decline12

Pls. check settings. 4x1 throne for each team + 1x3 in the middle (hopefully), 5 victory points to win (so either middle + your throne + enemy throne or pwn all enemies)

It's random if that Lvl3 throne is in the middle, could be a lvl 1 and lvl3 right next to a team. Unless you edit the map.

Yeah, that has occured to me aswell. How about just lvl1 thrones but double the amount of teams?

 

[KoolNoodles]

Whatever works out to be fair. I wouldn't mind teams of two, that could be interesting. Could also do something like 6x1 thrones, 3 points to win. We'd have to change up our Pretender etc.

 

[Grimwulf]

That's right, men - fuck the draft. Make more teams, less players, and start all over. I was almost afraid that this game will start soon, breaking all RAW TRADITIONS.

but muh dream team, just edit the map you lazy kraut

6x1, 4 to win?

Yeah why not, it will extend the game a bit, but principle is the same.

I loaded the map up a couple of times and it looks like the game places the thrones inside the castles everytime. Johannes

Yes, the castle sites are tagged "throne site". Adding one more throne just tosses a level 1 throne in some random other spot. One team will have that slight "advantage" but that's the best we can do I think without trying to edit in more.

Why not just go with 5x1 lvl 1 then and 3 to win?

Whatever helps you sleep at night raw, I am fine with that.

We could say screw thrones and go team-ffa ...

Ok with me.

Where are your pretenders?!

 

[coldcrow]

Is this going to happen?

 

[Matalarata]

Of course it is, silly you! It's been less than 3 weeks since first post...
According to previous games experience, haruspex (cannot foretell without dead creatures) and raw timing we should be ready before spring. I think.

 

[Dreaad]

Just get people in your team to submit their pretenders/disciples. Harass them endlessly.

Easy for you to say, nobody listens to me.

 

[Grimwulf]

Try death threats. Show them your .txt's. Mention names of their wives and gf's.

Works for me.

Edit: if everything else fails, hire a Maori to stalk them irl.

Guys, guys... guys. You know what's the worst thing about Decline 12? It holds Decline 13 hostage. Due to grorious tradition and international numeric conventions, we can't just skip this and be done. We must take action now, or suffer the consequences...
For this reason and because I feel my lifetime in Decline 10 has been noticeably shortened, I ask you. How do we proceed? We scrap idea, map and Dayyālu-themed teams or should we wait just a little bit longer ?

 

[Dayyālu]

Johannes , I am truly sorry to bother you, but I'm nothing and I understand nothing. Can we have a map with this

4x1 throne for each team + 1x3 in the middle (hopefully), 5 victory points to win (so either middle + your throne + enemy throne or pwn all enemies)

implemented? For the map creator it will be a simple thing to do, and I guess it's always nice to see someone use your work.

Thanks in advance.

I have no idea what happened to my hoverdog's team. hoverdog last posted July 25th, Harpsichord last posted July 21st. I asked them what they thought of a different Pretender last week.

Not possible to do a map where you determine which throne site gets the 3-point throne. IIRC if you'd predetermine a 3-pointer in a spot via normal site scripting it wouldn't count as a throne for VP purposes.

You could put 3 1-pointers in the middle though.

team

You must be doing something right... My team briefly discussed this on day one, two and three. Then total radio silence, which is quite strange since I talk with Lizzurd and sqeecoo regularly in Decline 10. Bros?

 

[mondblut]

I believe team BLAA Dayyālu's Forsaken Beta is entitled to technical victory, being the only one that did show up at the field. Now give us the prize and let's move on to Decline 13.

This will be even a better solution, to grant a nice tactical nightmare for would-be conquerors. If you can spare the time.....

Thanks again
