A talk with Hibby may prevent that, but it is indeed my general plan.

So i heard (from powa) powa is head honcho now, or were people taking advantage of poor gullible amz?

KamikOzzy · « **Reply #32 on:** January 12, 2010, 07:47:06 am »

It's a definite possibility. Powa has stepped in to fulfill my role at this point and time. Next month, either hibby will demand the server for himself, which of course he has first choice. If not, Powa may take over, or the server may die if neither of them (nor another candidate steps up and) decides to take over. Bottom line: I'm out. I'd like to see it survive, but the devs I have had the chance to speak with have ruined my love of the game. From here on out I don't care to be involved, so consider this my final protest: I don't see anywhere in your many stats sheets the number of 1.2 players vs the number of 1.1 loyalists, nor do I see any indication that there's been a great rise in new blood, but I believe those should be the biggest indicators of all, especially considering brand new players are apt to download the beta by default.

It's been a good run. Thank you to everyone who made my e-life much more enjoyable by playing on AA, and being a friend and/or associate. I apologize for anyone's experience I have worsened, as I really think that everyone deserves some escape from reality when they need it.

I may still be around the forums from time to time, but I have uninstalled the game, and I plan to have the password to the web server changed whenever it's clear who will be a permanent owner. Sayonara fellas.

Ciao

make sure you come back when 1.2.1 is released. I'd just like to have a minute rant about GPP now aswell. The only thing that i ever thought was a good counter-argument about my dislike of GPP (because everyone can tell whether or not a game is good or not in there opinion yes that was for you apple) Was that i was part of an extreme minority, that i can expect, i dont like call of duty, and i know im part of a minority on that one. However recent events have if anything completely abolished such an argument, the polls, the depreciation if GPP numbers, the fact that so few have taken an active part in the beta (you may disagree with some of those points, but you cannot deny that there are a considerable amount of 1.1 loyalists, i'd wager 50/50, but really anything over 25% is still dubious).

You cant update a game with 50% opposition.

Im not saying 1.1 is perfect. It needed rebalancing, not reinventing.

And even if your for GPP, most of the people ive spoken to would prefer a 1.1 with minute changes to balance it.

bye ozzeh

From my talks with Hibby, he has no problems with me taking over AA.

Just some things to note.

We cleaned up the ban list a lot.

It went from 280 bans to 27 bans. (if a ban wasn't for evasion or aimbotting it got removed)

There was about 50-70 bans with the reason "fuck you"

about 70 bans from pinky that he screwed up and made perm when he meant to make them 10d.(all the way from nov and back lol)

and 100's of bans that just said banned by admin and were between 5-10 days long.

All the bans that weren't perm got set to 2 days(which they all expired yesterday) and all the perms the reason got looked at and most of them got removed.

Other than that, there are and probably wont be any changes made to the server, the idea is to keep it running almost identical to how ozzy had it. If it's not broke don't fix it type deal. Although we're talking about upgrading to rezyn's new tremstats(after hibby figures out whats wrong with the mysql database)

It's been a pleasure Ozzy. Playing with you although we had our differences at the end of the day it is just a fun game to play.

I consider AA like the United States of Tremulous

if it goes than what will we do? Not alot of good servers left that have a reasonable amount of players to chill & play with.

Btw if you people ever need some money I got you covered. I got some money that I just never seem to spend on stuff like hard liquor and parties.

You keep chill Ozzy. Good luck man

maybe you should consider revising your list of admins too, seeing as how pinky managed to fuck up pretty large

Pinky is a VERY good admin. Ozzy just didn't care if those bans were perm or not. I've noticed ,however, that most people just evade bans that are longer than a few days so I see no reason to have a ban list with 300+ bans in it all perm that don't actually stop anyone from connecting. So the new rule is ban lengths 2 days long(in hopes that people don't evade and a shorter cleaner ban list) for deconners/basenaders and 25 days for aimbots. So far I've gone through the banlist everyday and made any adjustments necessary. If I see someone on the list a few times they'll immediately be subnet banned for 90 days for evasion. Past that permanent bans are just stupid. Sure deconning ruins the game, but some people are stupid and just mess up once and then they become bitter over their lack of ability to play at one specific server making that server a target. Plus with revert and how well everyone uses it on AA decons don't do much there.

Also, I have cleaned up the adminlist, but I haven't seen anyone that has caused any serious issues or anyone that is seriously inactive, so it's difficult for me to demote people who haven't given me a reason to demote them. I am rejecting all new admin applications though since we just have too many. (most of our admins are level 1 anyway so that Ozzy could keep track of them)

KamikOzzy · « **Reply #40 on:** January 15, 2010, 01:22:59 am »

Can't catch you on AIM today, just wanted to make sure you know there is a cvar-set limit for the admins ban time without a certain flag. If you dont change that, they'll still only be able to ban 10d. Don't care how you do it, but I never told anyone they could only ban for a certain amount of time, cause well, good luck enforcing that effectively. For now, if you're active, I'd set the ban length to 2d and then manually adjust them longer as you see fit, but don't forget to fix that if you go inactive. Off to a party (no shit, isn't it great that I'm not playing trem for once? =D) so I'll catch ya'll later.

Silver · « **Reply #41 on:** January 15, 2010, 02:18:35 am »

Yeah, right now I'm just testing all this to see if it helps with the decons, which it probably wont.

Have fun at your party <3

amz181 · « **Reply #43 on:** January 15, 2010, 08:07:42 pm »

Pinky is a good admin. Dont lower the amount of admins unless there are actual problems. I still get deconned without revert so if anything i'd say we still dont have enough.

Bye Ozzy! Hope you come back and play 1.2 at least a couple of times. You can never judge a book by its cover if you don't even start to read it.
Anyway, nice having you around on Trem,

Hi all,
I'm Iván García Subero, from TRINIT Computing Asoc. Zaragoza (http://trinit.es), Spain. We love free soft and online games

On the next months I have to manage some LAN parties on Zaragoza, and I have though about using Tremulous as the main game. We can give some credit/donation for the use, it will be a pleasure, and I want to know if there is any merchandising about Tremulous that we can show/sell/use on the party...

You can contact me at: trinit@trinit.es

Thanks a lot!

I personally wont bother with clicking your links to verify their validity. I will tell you, however, that this thread is no where near where you'd want to be posting this. Make a new topic in general discussion or better yet get on IRC and talk to the dev's personally there.

Ozzy, best of luck in real life, and be sure you're in front of a console, not behind a wheel, with the vodka :-)

1.2 may be a different game, but it does have its own charms if you give it a chance. Here's hoping Hibby will bring 1.2 AA back online.

Don't play 1.1 anymore, but long live AA nonetheless!

I hate to post this, because I really don't want to. But my car broke down and I had to buy a new one, so I'm really probably going to need some help paying for AA this month. If anyone is willing/capable of donating a little bit even 2-3 dollars to help out it'd be greatly appreciated. Send me a pm so I can give you a paypal link.

Thank you to one person who has donated 5 dollars a month since I took over, I really appreciate it man! You know who you are.

Jack Bauer · « **Reply #59 on:** June 26, 2010, 07:13:21 am »

I would sure hate to see AA die. Right now its pretty much the only public server I play on. If I wasn't out of a job right now, I would no doubt donate to help, but I have my own servers to pay for..
Oh yeah, and does AA actually have a website? Just curious..obviously www.aatrem.com isn't.
