Day after tomorrow, eh? We'll see if I can reach this one. Won't make any promises this time cause my weekends are usually pretty busy with fun stuff at the house. Still, if I find myself with time I'll show up.  :shrug:

Sounds good. Anyway here's some information to make communications a bit better.

Skype chat will be available.

- What is skype?
Skype is an easy to use voice chat software. While it's not as good as a Teamspeak/Ventrilo server, it's still a fair option. This will be a group chat so we can all hear and communicate with each other. Afterall, the SWBF chat box can get hard to read at times.

- How to you get Skype?
Download Skype HERE:http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/get-skype/

- What do I do now?
Add me so I can invite you to the lobby! I am aeriaglorismpc. I will be accepting all friend requests before the match starts. Invitations to the lobby will be before the battle starts. Once it starts, I cannot help you.

- So we can all hear each other regardless of what team we are on?
For the time being, yes. This is meant merely for entertainment and less for "competitive" use. If most people would like separate lobbys, we can discuss about it.

Won't be able to come, sorry, family activity followed by activity with friends.

Seriously, why did we have to start doing this right when I actually started to have a social life?

well i could make it but i lag completely on all those servers. i would maybe play just to lay mines randomnly and try and take cps looking up into the sky so i can move xD  :cheer:

Post by: {Remnant} CT-5108 on November 13, 2010, 10:00:36 AM
Yea I can go.
Again I ask the people on the mpire not to all be jets because
1) it's not as exciting for ya'll, I had some of your own teammates saying it went too fast  >:(
2) it's not as much of a challenge; I mean if you win in 7 minutes because you flew around and got all the cps then it just shortens the game length, and no one gets as much playing time.

again I'm not saying we should make it a rule and I'm NOT complaining, I'm just saying the game could be more fun if we limit jet usage

:moo:
that all I haave to say

Out of common decency, I'll attempt to talk some team members to not be Jet class, I most certainly won't be.
I'm turning up, and will probably be firing up Skype...

Post by: Rhino on November 13, 2010, 06:32:20 PM
I haz question. What happens if I manage to convince MF to come to a DC (with him it's a very spur of the moment thing). Will he be able to play if he 'just shows up', or would he have to sign up?

I don't think MF will sign up because he won't be coming to many if at all, and he doesn't want to promise anything that he won't do. At least, that's what I think his reasoning would be. :P But if he's not doing anything at the allotted times (unlikely, but possible), and I convince him would he be allowed to play, or would he get booted?  8)

If your connected to your router wirelessly, you could try connecting directly to your router with cat 5 ethernet. Also, reset your modem, have no other apps running and no one else in household on network. (i.e. X-box, other computers, iphones, ect.) Call your ISP to ping your home, they can detect if your getting the speed you paid for. GL

kk thnx Shtick
i am using an ethernet yellow cable and only my dad is using internet upstairs but Id be a fool to ask him to stop working so I can play my computer game lol
Title: Re: SWBF War - Week 2 - Battle for Naboo
Post by: Soap Mactavish on November 15, 2010, 04:49:46 PM
Cat 5 is a pretty standard cable so you can make a safe bet the cable you have is cat5 or an equivalent. Also if your close enough to your wireless router i don't think you will find a extremely better latency by using a ethernet cable
