And as far as breaking the game, Joel. I believe you already have........check all them badges. We all know the top players - and give them a grudging respect - but if ANY vet cant handle competition in any form then take Joels actions as an example and shoot me out of the event. I prolly dont stand much of a chance at winning anything, but I'll be damned if I dont try.

But to break the game when a change is made that you dont totally agree with?

Maybe we are still in kindergarten............Wheres my nappy mat?

Way to fan the flames Snipe.

I agree that what happened with Longo was pretty funny (and clever) but Joel brought up a good point about how the DR mafia wouldn't like intentional friendly fire in a PB match. I know you lose points for shooting an ally but PB is different than a normal combat event - one hit and you are out - so maybe Sam needs to increase the point penalty.

Hey, I just call it like I see it.  Apparently forums is the place to find the fire.

Last time I fought in regular ped combats it was one shot and you are out too.

Longos guys just had to wipe paint off their coats, my guys had to grow new heads.

If the DR mafia don't think stabbing people in the back is a legitimate activity then they are like no other mafia i have every heard of.

Longo didn't loose his place because the opponent who stiffed him scored more points. He went down because he didn't score any himself. Even a useless AI team that got one hit would have sent him packing. Increasing the penalty wouldn't change that. If you shhot your own team and as a result the opponents win overall, every gang in that other team gets the points hike. This in addition to your own penalty should be decisive.

Once you have broken the habit of awlays winning, it may be easier to not have to win next year. Longo may eventually see this as a liberating experience. It's somehting all the ususal suspects should experience.

What score in league points or placement would someone get if you gunned down your entire team and then resigned so the opposing team had no points at all?

Just curious.

In a friendly fire situation, IRL (DW anyway) i'd think the team, fearing for its safety would turn on, and gun down the perpetrator. Is this a possible addition/modification/deterant that is easily codable? And if so, can it identify legitimate STT as opposed to accudental LOF incidents. If it cant be diferentiated, then the AI would slaughter eachother because they are always shooting eachother anyway

I doubt the rest of the team would notice or care.

We didn't until Longo got bent out of shape ;)

I broke the game cause I like playing in leagues? (yes I have lost...I do not win every time or throw a fit if I don't - what gives?).

Bah I'm at my limit ,  everyone slander away, I don't give a flying #### any more.  At some point I guess, ya just give up.

I am going to act as bad as people say I am.

Well, jeez....maybe I will just take a break from forums for a while. Seems everyone is just looking for an enemy nowadays. I dont want to have to filter my posts to make sure I dont offend someone enough that they come out to kill me. I will wait till everything gets all settled.

If you want me - you know where to find me.

I don't think there is any evidence of Joel violating any advised game rules.

He has pushed them to the limit (and in so doing has demonstrated clearly where the limits are). This has sometimes resulted in the game rules being more rigourously enforced.

He has argued for agressive PvP (and has shown himself quite willing, even gratified, to accept the consequences when it has worked against him).

He has argued about an overly-protective game environment (carebear) and I agree that much of this is not in the spirit of the harsh genre DW is supposed to engender.

Whilst he has publically stated that he has grudged me, I am happy to confirm that he has taken no action against me that I would consider unreasonable. His no truce policy has been openly stated and trucing is somewhat against the spirit of the game anyway.

I will truce if requested, but I am happy to accept a no truce engagement. I will honour any truce (barring mistakes) and I will make war against the ganger that claims a truce and then breaks the deal and behaves dishonourably but the vendetta will end with the death of the crew responsible (yeah I know it is really the player, but you have to allow an opportunity for reflection and remorse).

I don't doubt that if I find myself in an area fight with him he will do his best to defeat me and I wouldn't expect him to do otherwise. I would hope he would honour resignations but that is his choice, hell the NPCs don't seem to.

We are probably in agreement concerning the spirit of PvP and only differ in a few areas of implementation.

I often disagree with Joels opinions and his way of expressing them, but I don't doubt his passion for the game.

Credit where credit is due.

As you know, I have no problem with your gameplay approach in general, however, publicly stating that you intend to break the game isn't acceptable

You know, i just checked google Joel, and there's some easy tricks you can use to deal with those temper tantrums, but the easiest way is to grow up.

Thats a bit unfair Juan. You are not really one to talk, by that last post alone. You were talking about bullying the other day if I remember?

I like the PvP flag.

Yes I understand the drawbacks you often state, but this being a game that can be played at peoples pleasure and choice, I think the flag is needed.

Provisions to prevent hiding behind the flag, I think, is the next progression.

Has there been much PvP since the change? Anything happening in somerset?

I am going to show how ridiculous the PvP flag is (cause no one will listen to me.. I change it with action)  And then you are going to fix it :)

Most of the PvP has happened in the Forums...  heh...  I do know alot of peop0le who were flagged PvP "on" changed it to "off" for assorted reasons.  Personally I changed mine to "off" because I dont want my SS scouts interupted every time I anger someone in the forum.  Which I tend to do...  Not on purpose most of the time but my opinions tend to make people mad at me.

The "traveling back to town" time delay was what concerned me.  I dont want to get my entire gang tied up returning to town.  Once wouldnt be bad but it wad been mentioned in Lobby on 2 or more occasions that certrain unnamed people would find "every scout" they sent out interceted to cause this effect of not letting them play.  I no longer remember who was saying that but discovered it was more grandiosity then reality since it is appearantly not easy to intercept.

But thats what propted me to go PvP Off.
