I am speaking up for a DoD event. I would absolutely love to play with you guys, even if it is a one time thing. I know Krayt plays it, or at least he did a few weeks ago. That's four already. I know that Simpson has it because I sent a CD to Norway with most of the good HL mods on it. If he enjoys it, that could be 5.

 

Then at TF.N's Boards I know a few people that would play. DUM4 (Krayt and Simpson know him, he's a good guy), and AlienAcid (Krayt knows him) who is a lunatic but is great once you get to know him.

 

So that's 7, plus any other people who decide to speak up. We might be able to get a decent game going. If not we could keep it without a password and let other people join... whatever.

Ok for DoD our list is:

 

1. Krayt Tion

2. Darth Simpson

3. ZeroXcape

4. Wilhuf

5. OnlyOneCanoli

6. DUM4

7. AlienAcid

 

Anyone else want in?

 

Now for setting a time to play DoD: how about next Tuesday Sept. 4th starting at 6PM EST. Will leave the server up for the night, people can come and go as they wish.

 

BTW can anyone recommend a stat parser that supports DoD? If so, provide a link. Thanks.

6pm EST is too early for me, I sometimes don't return home from work until 6:30. Generally speaking 6pm is probably too early for anyone in a regular-ish east coast work routine, plus some of those West Coast punks might not be off school yet. ;) Any west coast workers are probably out of luck too, and those not in US, well that's a whole seperate mess.

 

I'd much rather join another server we know is going to fill up for sure if we are going to have a handful or two of people. I can recommend a few where the people are less childish and the play is always a challenge. The Killing Grounds main server is good server where people will play it to the bone on a map like dod_omaha.

 

Inteli-Stats work for DoD though there page seems to be down at the moment. I haven't paid much attn to DoD stats as I have for other games, its more of a team effort...

Two issues to resolve for DoD. When? and Where?

 

The 6pm is a recommendation for the benefit of our European gamers who even starting then would still have to wait until midnight their time. There is no way to make a time suitable for the US West coast all the way to Europe, unless it is on a weekend where everyone has time off.

 

At best we can make a suggested range of time at which to meet. Say between 6pm to midnight Tuesday. Come and go as you wish.

 

Or we could go with a weekend time, say the Sunday after next during the day, say from noon to 6 pm EST. This might work better for the European segment.

 

Which do you guys prefer for a time? Speak up.

 

Next question is where. This is the easy part. If we know that Killing Grounds will fill up, will we be able to secure slots to play? I recommend we join in on my server. If we cant get enough players then we can jump to Killing Grounds if given the space.

 

Meanwhile, I found Psychostats. Looks like it could be a good stat parser that supports DoD. Here's a sample.

So it sounds like you are proposing to make a place to play where people can expect (especially given time zone mismatches) to run into two or three of each other during a given evening?

 

Well I would comment then that it really isn't that hard to get into most already established servers including TKG. Sometimes I can join right away, sometimes I might refresh for a few minutes on the server broswer or retry a bit in the console. The most I think I've waited to get in for the last couple months is about 5 minutes...

 

What player number would you be safely able to set your server to anyways with decent pings?

 

Ah, pyscho stats. You might remember I linked to that in your AE stats thread, my comments are there. One of the better ones imo.

Well I'm going in now to play on TKG.

 

The Killing Grounds DoD 1.3b

144.54.222.108:27015

 

You won't see me using this name as it is generally a SW RP name. Look near the top of the scores for a really non sensical, humourous, or offensively zaney name and that will probably be me. I change it often. Just give a shout out to JKii.net and hopefully I won't be too fixated to not notice.

bump

 

I am good for any of the suggestions. At this point I have pretty good flexibility over my schedule, especially on weekdays.

 

How about Wilhuf sets up the server tomorrow and keep it open to the public from about 6-12 or whatever he thinks would be good. If it doesn't work out, we can try it on the TKG server next weekend.
