Setting up IP Games XLIII

rah · February 5, 2003, 10:07

Well the other one is over 200, so I guess it's time for the next one. Ming please close the other one.

I've forgotten what we were discussing in the other one. But I expect to see War4 soon.

right on schedual, on topic, i am around fri and i think sat this week...continuation anyone ?

Ming · February 6, 2003, 19:11

As you can see Rah... I closed the other thread.

I hope you guys do get a multi day game going, that would be different. If you do, I'll just have to look for somebody to duel late night saturday. Maybe somebody will be eliminated from your game by then

rah · February 6, 2003, 19:17

I'm avail for both nights so If we can get others to commit, I'm in. Is FF still playing soldier

Berz? Barono?

RAH
Took you long enough to close the other one.

Flatlander Fox · February 6, 2003, 21:27

Still playing soldier...

Today, 55 people from my unit were called up for active duty. The rest of us are just waiting for our number to be called. (unfortunately)

And to think, I thought I was done being a weekday warrior!

War4ever · February 6, 2003, 23:06

sigh....we will never get one going

Baron O · February 7, 2003, 00:23

rah

count me out this weekend except maybe sat late ( i could duel with ming)

rah · February 7, 2003, 12:00

*sigh*, maybe hawkhunter and/or berz will be around.

I'll may get to ming's a few minutes early.

War4, maybe we can test the surprise bonus if we have time before we start.

ok rah, i need to run 10k before we play.....b/c it will be too late after the fact, and i am never in any shaped to do

i should be ready to go by 6pm my time

Ming · February 7, 2003, 12:47

Well Rah... should I order the pizza sooner. Let me know when you want to eat, and I will order based on that.

And JRabbit... Barry may or may not make it tonight. He's going to CapriCon... but he's still thinking of coming over... just not sure. And I haven't heard anything from either Mark yet. You are always welcome to come over anyway, but just warning you in advance.
Give me a call when you get home if you want an update.

rah · February 7, 2003, 13:08

Well since war won't be there early, there's no rush for me to get their early, (except for starting the weekend as soon as fricking possible). I'll be there for sure by 6:35 so you can plan on that.

Rich

War4ever · February 7, 2003, 14:55

yeah sorry, i should be ready to go by 730 your time, but that depends if the run goes well..if not like i said, by 8pm for sure, this will give me 5 min to shower too

rah · February 7, 2003, 15:38

We're playing over the internet, not face-to-face. So you can skip the shower.

War4ever · February 7, 2003, 17:10

yeah, but i sweat like a b!!!!!!!!!!tch after a 40 min run like that...i go hard when i run and the xtra 5 min to rinse off goes miles, especially when there will be two girls hanging out later in the evening

-Jrabbit · February 7, 2003, 19:07

MING -- I'll definitely be there tonight.

Rough week at the salt mine. Yesterday, 25 ppl lost their gigs -- including one of my guys.

Plus I've spent all week crafting the CEO's State of the Company speech explaining why it's all good.

Sometimes, the PR gig is not so fun.
(sigh)

So I need the R&R. See you at the usual time.

Ming · February 7, 2003, 19:11

Thanks JR... now if Barry does call, I can tell him that at least you are going to be here.

See you at the normal time.

Flatlander Fox · February 7, 2003, 19:17

Saturday might be possible, but I could be cruising for the Ming game if I run late.

Tonight is definitely out.

HawkHunter · February 8, 2003, 12:41

i should be around for anything sat. night

Ming · February 8, 2003, 14:56

If I'm around, it may not be till very late. It depends how good the party we are going to is

War4ever · February 8, 2003, 17:03

*sigh* i need a new Service Provider.......

rah · February 8, 2003, 17:41

The wife and kid just left to go shopping.

So I should be able to start whenever.

War4ever · February 8, 2003, 20:06

i am around

rah · February 8, 2003, 21:24

So you say. Get your connection fixed, I want to play.

Ming · February 9, 2003, 11:58

I noticed in the other thread that you tested the surprise attack bonus against another human.

Congratulations to you and Barano for doing the work, and proving what all MP players knew all along.

I can't wait to see your results.

rah · February 9, 2003, 13:29

Yep warrior on warrior surprise 30 wins ZERO loses.
quite conclusive.

See the thread for details.

RAH

War4ever · February 9, 2003, 13:35

hehe well done, its not like we didnt know this already

now the other question, for those of us who make peace after using this bonus and then sneak attack, is it there again ?

rah · February 9, 2003, 15:03

Yes, half of the 30 attacks of warrior on warrior were after making peace and sneaking again. No difference, win every time. Read the thread for specifics.

Ming · February 9, 2003, 15:49

War4ever · February 9, 2003, 16:27

yes i read it in the other forum, well done, see MPers can prove things

rah · February 9, 2003, 17:00

This one was easy. All of us already knew it. It's just the SP boys that had always tested it against the AI, didn't believe us. Now they have to.
