Title: Melee Meet-Up [March 2010] Post by: Gekko on March 03, 2010, 11:35:46 am [Date]
Saturday 13th, March, 2010. [Time] The whole day is open for games. Here (http://gekko.frud.biz/stash/players.txt) is a small active player chart to find your best opponent (please give me more info if you want your name to it) [Place] #UQM-Arena on irc://chat.freenode.net. If you don't know how any of this stuff works, this (http://www.gekko.frud.biz/uqmtutorial/) may be of use to you. Note that the link has also information about router configuration! [Guidelines] Play how you want to! If someone else in the chat room will agree to play by your lunatic rule set then it's legitimate. Virtually everyone you meet will use the #uqm-arena standard stalemate breaker rule (that's "the faster ship is on offense" in case you aren't aware) but someone can play without that too if they find a willing opponent. Game mods, different fleet sizes, Hierarchy vs. Old Alliance, duplicate ships and bizarre rulesets (http://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/Super_Melee_rulesets) are all on the table. Some players most likely will want to play a game or two with Balance Mod (http://forum.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?topic=4457.0) There will be a 200 point, no duplis, no Thraddash tournament if enough people show up on good hours. There have been some interesting players as of late...

Title: Re: Melee Meet-Up [March 2010] Post by: Gekko on March 14, 2010, 01:58:00 am In the end the turn out was rather good, but the amount of actual games played was small. The Australians were on the channel earlier and were playing quite a bit with the Russian(s) and Europeans. As the American continent woke up and the players started wandering to the channel we had 12 players around. Mysteriously the channel seemed to be more interested in talking than playing and the evening ended with around 3 games played. There was no interest for a tournament, so it was skipped. I don't know if it was for this forum thread or something else, but the activity in the arena was very high during this week.
