Put Premade / Pros only in your room tag.
Weird. I have this consistently. Why does music setting affect the taunts? Even more weird.
I am sorry for a noob question, I have never dropped an item before. How do you do it?
June 25 BST 12:19 Just happened. It happened only once though. 500 error can be seen as a background picture. Pinned topic list and category list (not shown in screenshot) show empty lists. [IMG]http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee209/AnnihilatorX/forum.png[/IMG]
Stop growling whenever I enter patheon and chose you! As far as I can see this is a bug that only apply to UB. Having him selected in patheon, when I enter patheon and join a game, or back out to main menu, UB's growling audio will loop even when I am either loading the game, or at the main menu and even go to custom games. This is extremely annoying. I hate you UB.

[quote who="Melchiz" reply="18" id="2273529"]Terrible idea because the AI will then become a suicide machine. This is a player vs. player game, and bots should not provide any advantage. If someone drops, tough luck, you should lose. Bots should not be altered to allow teams with fewer human players to win.[/quote] No it doesn't provide advantage. Most players play better than the AI.The player who was replaced by the AI would likely to play at equal or
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="7" id="2273519"]I like the idea of AI demigods that replace dropped players not providing gold/XP. Any opinions on that?[/quote] Please check andpancakes's thread over at General, plenty of opinions http://forums.demigodthegame.com/356930 No that's not my thread lol
[quote who="Sakhari" reply="14" id="2273427"] 1. A slider option to control AI exp and gold handicap, and leave default 0. Just so we're clear, are we expecting this slider to affect only AI fill-in's or AI players in general? Be a shame if people got screwed in skirmish games by default. As Sly said, I think the default should be 100% which puts all players, AI or otherwise, on equal footing and, yes, it's what players are already used to.[/quote] AI f
I am going to propose 1. A slider option to control AI exp and gold handicap, and leave default 0. 2. Replace the message "XXX killed YYY" to "XXX killed an AI" when AI replaced dropped player YYY

[quote who="Sly_Squash" reply="7" id="2273192"] How about this: I will acknowledge Annihilator and pancakes as offering the underpinnings of my more refined (direct) solution if they acknowledge the solution is more robust, worthwhile, versatile, consistent, and adds more value than their hack and use this solution as the one to pitch to Stardock. [/quote] So you meant you will acknowledge others when they worship you lol. I actually acknowledged your solution since
[quote who="Sakhari" reply="1" id="2273135"]Here's what I don't like about the idea, at least, as it's been presented so far. Personally, I think that if the online arena is going to be labeled 'competitive', then the AI has no business being there in the first place and I'm with MrBoingy in simply saying "Get it out of there." Now, clearly that idea doesn't fly with everyone. Ok. Fair enough but that suggests to me that there's value in keeping the AI around
The funny thing is the post is 4 pages long and no one from GPG/SD replied.
I persoanally doesn't like a game ruined because some people quit for whatever reason and is satisfied with AI which doesn't give advantages nor disadvantages. If you remove AI, it's giving the team disadvantage of losing at least some harrasement capability. If there's the AI at least if it was a good going game then people can continue.
They should fix this because this is the first time I've seen a BBS that does not handle this properly.
Layered quotation (Quoting posts with quotes within them) doesn't work. Sometime the quoted person's name is not even in the post. Check this post's 2nd page reply #28: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/356930/page/2/#2270642 I certainly didn't say that. But the quotation tag were wrongly put on the the poster didn't correct it.
I can tell you this is ocassional and very likely to do with server load. What happened? Most likely the main Demigod General forum page (Not the sub-foums). Slow loading. When it finishes loading, no topic listing (Recently active posts), just the stickies are visible. Retrying usually doesn't work until 5-10 mintues later or more. When this happened Ocasionally. Once at June 6, 2009 12:57:55 GMT. Once yesterday June 22 at night GMT and sever
It means that the game state information between you and other players are corrupted somehow, so that the game is void. If corruption happens, there's no point to play the game as what you see may not be what your friend or enemy see.
[quote] Sure there is: implementation, testing, and future rebalancing costs time and money that could be better spent on other things... like actually fixing the AI. If you really need your short term fix, implement my slider idea, let the community determine the best percentages for their taste, and thank me for offering the community a solution and not a dirty hack. [/quote] Why do you need implementation, testing and future balacing at all
[quote who="Sly_Squash" reply="5" id="2272541"] Quoting MrBoingy, reply 4rest you have to explain what will happen when a player drops or your proposed solution is incomplete. [/quote] GG.
