Title: I think it's pretty funny.
Post by: Oa.shi.n on November 14, 2006, 07:53:42 am
I just thought I'd share something me and my roommate did in an empty server.

It was hilarious watching people spawn.  :D

I have to admit that screenshots like these loose their shine after seeing screenshot n#56 showing the same kind of content. Like this oldie:

I demand more creativity, especially from a girl, since they tend to have different brains than boys.

This redefines spawn camping.

Or should it be auto spawn camping?

I know it's not original. I just thought it was funny and there might be someone out there that thought it would be funny, as well. I'd have made a screen shot of my alien spawn camping, but that wouldn't have been original either, would it have? Well, my bad. Let the thread die then. :)

Aliens can do it with only 20 bp.
1 trapper and 1 hive.

tried that, didn't work
what I did, was that in a map, there are two corners. And in each corners, there's reactor with tenelodes and om with eggs. Each of them has turrets and tubes, trappers, and hives in each opposing sides.

What I learned: Those swarms in the hive is very persistant, they chase you for a long time... In Arachnid, near the alien base with the hallway near, I ran to the tunnel, and when i looked back, the swarms were still chasing me and i died =/

try running away from them in ATCS they chased me from the centre to the human base and killed me 'cause some noob covered the whole entrance with turrets

That is what the trapper is for, silly.

I came into a server where it was the reverse once.. a whole bunch of tubes around a telepad...
Someone come up with a base that makes it impossible for humans to camp :D

Run in small circles. After some time, they get bored and leave. Yes you can do that in the middle of the alien base if needed.

Tip with hive swarms: don't look back.  Run until something else kills you.  Its not impossible to outrun the damn things.

Remember this, NOTHING is impossible.  But it is NOT very likely.  :P

Sorry.. i'm going to call you on that one.. I am betting it is IMPOSSIBLE for you to give me $1,000,000 in the next 10 minutes.

Actually you just did, but I stole it mid transit and erased any log that it had been put into your account in the first place.
Title: I think it's pretty funny.
Post by: PIE on November 15, 2006, 09:18:37 pm
.. if you stole it mid transit, then I didn't get it .. therefore it was impossible for it to make it to me and I shall gloat in my victory..  yes.. i shall gloat that i DID NOT GET $1,000,000...
But if you really want to prove it isn't impossible neo.. please go back in time and not steal the money and that should pretty much prove the point.

it's impossible to find a function f with a finite number of terms such that

Trappers make it hard to run around in circles, don't ya think?

Well duh, of course when I said run in circles, it required not beeing stuck to the ground by a trapper :o

The image you are about to witness occured on a occupied server, with a few real people actually playing.

Caption: I'm an evil builder. The CU guys I was playing with (on their server) made their base next to mine on UTCS, so I returned their favor. This ended up being their only spawn.

They didn't mind the granger next to their node?

Post by: techhead on November 17, 2006, 02:16:13 am
Didn't mind or didn't notice?

Post by: _Equilibrium_ on November 17, 2006, 02:25:48 am
i'm thinking they would have noticed a tube, and especially an OM. so how the heck did you manage to do that?
Title: I think it's pretty funny.
Post by: techhead on November 17, 2006, 02:32:42 am
Moved their base somewhere, left one tele-node behind, aliens moved the OM over there, and then killed the new base.

how many people were playing at this time? i've heard of egg spam, but node spam?

Post by: Undeference on November 17, 2006, 02:40:34 am
Take a granger, sit on the telenode to prevent anyone from spawning, build base.

Bah Kobra.  I haven't seen Royale play in forever.  Especially under the CU tag.  Who where you playing with?  I think we are being hosed and that this was staged.
