Suggestion - Das Schloss Active games

Postby AlbroShlo on Wed Aug 27, 2008 10:05 am

I am currently playing in one of the 20 remaining Das Schloss games. It is clear that if anyone is going to win it will not be any time soon. I assume the other games are in the same spot after this much time. My suggestion is that we all agree to delete the games so that we, and others can start games with all the changes made.

It doesn't work like that, you can't just 'abort' a game (lack may delete them, as the map wasn't up for long)

no, I just hang out in suggs/bugs anyway, that wasn't the point, lack doesn't delete games bacause the community votes to, (although in this case he probabally should delete the games if most players agree)

Yes, if "abort" = "deletion by lack".

The new version doesn't seem to have addressed some of the key issues yet though.

I've having fun in mine. Cashes around 600, so every three rounds I get to blast into someone who irked me. Or someone with an ugly colour. And it never matters who I hit, because they can't be killed.

I am invincible! Can't be killed? This map sounds broken...sounds like the games being played are broken...and I usually either fix broken things...or just throw it in the trash. Sounds to me like the games should be trashed....

CANCEL / DELETE/ ABORT this stupid game!!!!! No one is ever going to win!! Seems like the only way out is to miss turns and get kicked out.

Bald adonis have i irked you? haha.. i just wanted some place other than AB, plus i have an ugly color so i guess im in for it double huh?. But anyways with cash sets nearing 700 in a map where no one gets killed there are really no mistakes tthat can be made.. benjikat has already won the game just how long does he have to wait tojust reduce everyone to nothing? Probably like another year. Personally, ill vote to delete the game.

Absolutely. The novelty of kicking someone's ass so hard that you "send them back to their room" (i.e. their initial starting position) is starting to wear off. The only way the game I'm in will ever end is through active collusion between players.

Yeah, there's that too... To be honest, when I saw the new map 'n gameplay, and the fact that people still can't be killed, I kinda gave up on the whole concept.

That was part of the point of the Map, maybe there should be a warning before players create the game for the first time On this map it impossible for players to be eliminated

you can't eliminate everyone, you have to hold the four objective territories (unless someone is extremely unlucky)

I'm still in an active game from the second round of the Map Blaster II tourney (the final round didn't include this map, and is already over), and from what I've seen in chat, most people seem to agree with what I said:

"I don't think this is going to end unless 7 of us deadbeat, or something."

Let's have lack delete the games, since that would clearly be "or something." :D

I knew that perfectly well before entering the game, but the thing is that everyone miscalculated the gameplay on that map. There's a reason why it was pulled for retooling.

Yeah, that was you for the ugly colour; I was thinking of blue when he took my K-territories.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm guessing there would have to be a high percentage of people that want to delete the games before it would be done. Maybe after a couple more days I'll ask Lack about the best way to deal with the situation.

Eliminate the map, game, the creator of said game and the IDIOTS who approved this map.

Escalating cards on this map, interesting. I'm plodding along in a flat rate version. I think I have the high ground, earning more troops per turn, - now I just need to spend about 120 rounds building up troops and I will have a big enough advantage to win :shock: =P~

Happy to delete. The only thing preventing me from deadbeating to exit this hell is my stubornness to see a game through to the end.

Agreed. I'm still in two of these games (also from the Map Blaster II tournament that Geigerm referenced earlier) and would be happy to have them end...

Current pole result: 38 in favor, 1 opposed...

That's pretty much the very definition of a popular mandate.
