Title: OFPEC Staff match
Post by: max_killer_payne on 26 Jul 2003, 12:05:56
One thing I think, not only would b entertaining but also funny.  ;D

All of the OFPEC staff have a HUGE multiplayer match. Have teams like:

The Ed Depot Team
Global Moderator Team
Forum administrator team, etc

OR

Get a team of willing forum regulars and make them fight the moderators in an MP Team Death Match or CTF

lol I don't do much MP but I'm up for it.  8)

Since we're a global site somebody - either the europeans, the americans or the asia/pacificians - is going to have to get up early.     If it's, say, 5am in San Francisco its 8am in NY, 1pm in London and midnight in Wellington.

So, it'll be on the weekend then.  ::)

I like the idea a lot and it actually has been discussed before, back in the Wolfsbane days. At that time there were some games where some of the staff participated, but not as a tournament or anything like that.

the weekend starting on 8/8 is not good for me (you'll get the reasons later  ;)) but if someone actually takes up the challenge and tries to organize this I'll be sure to teamkill some of these OFPEC staff pussies  ;D

Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: macguba on 29 Jul 2003, 11:26:31
OK, the match is gonna be this weekend 3/4 August.

I suggest a time of 15:00 (3pm) London time.      Given that we have folk from all over the world it's going to be late/early for somebody.

Which suits better, Saturday or Sunday?

I dont' know anything about MP so somebody else will have to organise the map we use, server, password etc etc.

I don't think it really matters which type of map we use as long as it lends itself to two teams.     We should use the opportunity either to test an advanced beta or review a MP map which is pending in the missions depot.    Kuro, Cap'n Winters and Artak are reviewers so they could decide which map and one or all of them could write the review afterwards.

All members of OFPEC are welcome to join in but you must express an interest in this thread first.   The password will be posted here.

Depending on who's playing we'll work out the teams on Friday.    It's all just a bit of fun so it doesn't really matter. Possibilites include:

Members v Staff
Addon makers v Mission makers
Noobs v Old timers
LCD v The rest of the world


At the moment we virtually have

Mission Reviewers* v Intelligence Depot^

max_killer_payne
Captain Winters*
Kuro*
Artak*

macguba^
Asmodeus^
LCD
Iwesshome^

Post by: Artak on 29 Jul 2003, 13:06:13
Nice to see you summing it up again macguba. What would we do without you  :-* ;)

Finland (where I am) is at GMT+2. which would make it 17:00. which is good.  :D

Saturdays, Sundays, they're all the same to me, but I have a feeling that Syndays are always the 'boring' days with nothing else to do than edit your maps  :-X

The map thing is difficult, sense we want to get the map reviewed at the same time it should be something from the pendings list. However, the map should also be of some entertainment (i.e. not a crappy one) and if you take a look at the ones I've reviewed lately you propably won't find anything over the score of 4. In addition to this there's always the addons problem. So the mission should be

pending
entertaining
with less addons the better

I wud definetely b interested in playin if it wasnt 4 my crappy dial up connection internet.  >:(

Post by: macguba on 29 Jul 2003, 13:35:49
Artak, I suspect you're right, I don't know what you'd do without me Sunday is likely to be better.

I agree about the map.


Bad luck Gooner.   I know how you feel.
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: max_killer_payne on 29 Jul 2003, 13:53:44
Well, I'll create the map custom, for a good fite. Any ideas?
TDM? LMS?
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: Iwesshome on 29 Jul 2003, 15:57:49
LMS?

Well so far it is 4 on 4 so I would say we use either a CTF or TDM map... We could also try out a Coop map?
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match

Post by: max_killer_payne on 29 Jul 2003, 18:23:19
Okay i'll email every1 on the list the password later, the match will be called:

OFPEC STAFF MATCH

And after that we can do another one so the other members and moderators can play
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: Iwesshome on 29 Jul 2003, 18:30:03
Can we confirm what maps we will play and what add-ons might be needed for them?

I currently have dial-up so I don't want any last minute surprises that could prevent me from participating this weekend.

STOP THE PRESS

I just found out that cable just came into my area... so as soon as I can pick myself off the floor I will get me arss moving to get in my house  ;D
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: max_killer_payne on 29 Jul 2003, 21:03:30
No addons will b required we will use one of the mp templates that came with the game. Unless anyone has an amazing TDM map? Oh yeah we have 2 do Coop cos it roks!!

Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: macguba on 29 Jul 2003, 22:58:20
If EST = Eastern Standard Time = the time in New York it's usually five hours behind London ... so 3pm in London is 10am in New York.

 My school money for this semester is coming very very soon...  and so I'm going to have to get myself a cable connection for uhhh  school... yeah thats it ;)

 So after the 10th or so....

if I'm not in class or working on some add-on,  I'll be online and willing to play

And all of you guys that want to coordinate things a little easier..

all OFPEC staff have ICQ  
 
even though most of us are hardly ever on it  :P

and some of us like Macguba take forever to allow you to add them to your list  ::)   *still waitin buddy*  ;D

Actually I'd forgotten icq existed ... logging on now, chaps.

The problem, Captain W, is that 10am your time is around 11pm for people in the Far East like Kuro.   If we make it any later he will turn back into a pumpkin.   Depending on whose playing and what their views are we can maybe make it an hour later, but no more.    If some of the Kiwis want to play we'll be making it earlier.  ;D

Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: max_killer_payne on 30 Jul 2003, 10:10:51
Not as of yet. So these are the ppl involved for the first match. I got a great BAS map that we cud use. 6 West and 6 East.

This isn't final, as i think everyone shud have a go who is intrested. Oh yeah to the other moderators, will Noon and Sefe wanna play??

Okay here are the teams: (If you disagree with anything just say  ;) )    I did do this at random, yes I am a sad person

I also think that these teams should think up names for themselves, so i duno team were gonna kick the other teams ass.

BAS:
Cap'n Winters
Kaligyua
Myself
Timothy Pink
Artak
KTotte (If he is intrested)

East:
Asmodeus
Macguba
Iwesshome
Noon or Sefe which ever one of them is intrested
Tigershark
LCD ?? (I dunno whether he can play) if not you guys may choose anyone else from the forum


Remember then of this is final. Just my view of it.
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: Tim Pink on 30 Jul 2003, 12:19:28
sounds very good

when will a desicion be made if its final because i kinda need to know soon

Thanks

and from now on refer to me no longer as Timothy Pink but as the Tigershark Annihilator  :D

thanks

I leave anything out?  :joystick:
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: macguba on 30 Jul 2003, 14:33:01
OK, time for some more executive decisions.

The match will be at 3pm London time on Saturday 2 Aug.   (This may change to Sunday if there is massive demand, but at the moment it's Saturday.)    To figure out what time that is where you live here's a timezone calculator. (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/)   I suggest you get there half an hour early if you can to sort out login problems and so on.     Particularly if, like me, you're not too hot on MP.

At 2.30 log on to OFPEC chat so that we can talk to each other as we're getting started.

max_killer_payne is in charge of the map, passwords, setting up the game etc.   The game will be co-op, two sides fighting to the death.    The more we chat and cooperate within each team the more fun it will be

max, we need detailed information on what to do.   We also need to know the map and any addons that are required.    I suggest that everybody checks the have Kegety's editor addon and the BAS Delta/Rangers, just in case.

The teams at the moment are:-


Mission markers  (playing West or BAS units if that's the map we use)
-------------------
Cap'n Winters
Kaliyuga
max_killer_payne
Timothy Pink
Artak
Kuro
(+ possibly Noon's missus)



Green slime     (playing East)
--------------
Asmodeus
Macguba
Iwesshome
Tigershark
LCD      (who is away this week but said he'd be back on the 2nd)
messiah
Jahve


If you don't like the team you're in then arrange to swap with somebody in the other team.      Green slime has a core of Intel Depot staff and Mission Markers has a core of Mission reviewers.       Team names will obviously change if you come up with a better one.  ;D     We have 13 people at present so we need a map big enough to cope.

If your name is not on the list and you would like to play please post asap.[/color]    If you have already posted in this thread and I've missed you off by mistake please accept my apologies and make a post.      If you've changed your mind or can't make that date/time please let us know.

Having done this once, we'll be in a much better position to organise it again in the future.   We can adjust the time, day, etc, but at the moment we just want to get one game to happen then we can fiddle with the details for the next time.

OK max, it's over to you.

Questions?   Comments?

well auz is like 10 hours ahead of uk.... so 3pm will mean 11pm in auz on saturday the 2nd of august...

or maybe u are 9 hours ahead - damn british summer time daylight saving hour change thingy... whatever... its either 10pm or 11pm
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: KTottE on 31 Jul 2003, 00:29:00
New Zeeland is + 12 hours from GMT, the east coast of Aus (Sydney, Canberra etc.) is +10 hours, dunno for Darwin etc. as they are much further west. But if you know the time difference from say Sydney -> Darwin you can just calculate it.

But, now, during Daylight Savings, the UK is not on GMT, they are GMT + 1, Sweden (Central European Time) is GMT + 2 so it's a bit hard.

But let's say 1500 hours Saturday in London, that makes it 1600 hours CET (Me!), and 0300 hours Sunday in New Zeeland. If you're in Aus (Sydney-ish) it would be 0100 hours Sunday.

As far as what maps I want to play, I don't know!  I've only played MP a few times, so it's all good!

If anyone has ICQ I will log on under:

302256999

Or for MSN messenger:

asmodeus213@hotmail.com

@ LCD

You're back!   ;D  Good to see you man!  Let me know how things are going with your Dad!  (I can't believe that happened, what a crazy thing!)

@ Everyone

Whoever's on LCD's team will win, this guy is a killing machine!   :gunman:

(I wanna be on your team LCD, you can watch my back while I'm alll tired)   ;)   8)

lol

This'll be fun!  (If my connection allows me to play without too much lag)  ::)

 8)

Sorry for not knowing crap about MP playing but how do u log on :-[:

Select Mp\remote\

and just type:

80.78.226.47:2300

in the address section and:

17478

in the port section...

 ::)Was I right? :-[ ;D
And will I be needing any addons ???

Is it too late ? Can I take part in this landmark match ? I know it starts in a few hours but...  Geeeeeee ! This will be fun.
(Hadn't seen that thread before  :-\)

@ bizon

select 'multiplayer' and from there 'remote'
type in the 'ip field':  80.78.226.47
type in the 'port field': 2300

The rest of the info in Tigersharks post is for the backup server if the main server for some reason flips over (I assume that's what Sharkie aimed for when posting the backup info).
IF we have to use the backup server
select 'multiplayer' and from there 'remote'
type in the 'ip field': tjp-ofp.kicks-ass.org
type in the 'port field': 17478


@ Igor
If my calculations are correct the match will start in 2 hours from the minute I've posted this. I would imagine if there's room you will get a spot. However the teams seem already chosen, so we'll just have to see how it goes  :-\

[EDIT]
Except that the OFPEC Forums clock is 20 minutes ahead  ::)
[/EDIT]
[EDIT]
A slight correction, the OFPEC Forums clock seems to be 40 minutes late
[/EDIT]
[EDIT]
I'm confused  :D (a forum admin wise and old, could check it out and then after that check me out)

Well that's fine by me, I'll just show up and if there's room and it's cool for all of you, then I'll play. If not, then I'll be in for the next one  ;) :D !

We're chatting in OFPEC chat.

Click on "CHAT" at top right of the screen, then just come on in.   Once you're there type

so that we don't have lots of ofpec_users

Post by: Messiah on 02 Aug 2003, 18:57:24
well... i started late and played 2 games... and boy were they fun  ;D

delta attack - we had to protect VIP against delta first time round - me, Tigershark, Artak, TJ and Rom protecting.. (sorry if i forgot u)

quite tense in the factory.... then we take out one on a kaz.... while a sniper picks off Tigershark - good shot - then in my sighst i spot killswitch - booom - he's gone... we take out a few sneaky boys trying to crawl into our compound and we win...

so on to us being delta, and they protect the vip.... TJ takes chopper pilot while TS, myself and Rom board with out M4's... we fly low and fast to the compound - reaching the roof of the factory - we lose Rom and TS on the way due to enemy gunfire... i drop onto the roof and take out one single sniper... run into the building and pump the VIP full of lead with my beretta

now THATS a delta insertion (minus losing the 2men on the insertion)

thanx for a great MP lads - we must do that again -0 was a great laugh :thumbsup:
Title: Re:OFPEC Staff match
Post by: Tim Pink on 02 Aug 2003, 18:59:13
well that was really enjoyable

we should organize more of these more often and maybe get a timezone sheet going so its not as hard to find out when the matches start.

thanks everyone, it was nice to see so many ppl get together and have fun without ne fights or crap like that
and thank you to every one for being patient while my slow internet draged along

Cheers
Have a good nite, morning, miday

Post by: Tim Pink on 03 Aug 2003, 06:18:26
well id like to get this going once a week mayb

it would be good if there was an mp depot, it would take the strain of the mission depot because a mp depot could recruit mp testers only and also organize a tournament based system

plus a timezone sheet for differnt countries so there is no stuff up in what time it starts.

What do u guys think?

and also organize a tournament based system

I have answered this question here (http://www.ofpec.com/yabbse/index.php?board=4;action=display;threadid=11613) only a few days ago.

plus a timezone sheet for differnt countries so there is no stuff up in what time it starts.

Dude, check this (http://www.worldtimezone.com) out. I found this in less than a minute on Google and so I don't see a reason why there should be 'stuff up in what time an MP game starts', whether we have a timezone map or not. Why should we re-invent the wheel?

As for the MP depot, we're currently looking for a way to get more multiplayer missions reviewed than we do at the moment. But I'm not sure if an MP depot is the right solution for that. You'll currently find all MP missions in MP section of the missions depot. And I think that's exactly where they belong.

Thanks for the aftermatch write up messy.....it was very cool playing with all these guys.

I'd love to keep a weekly game regular.....I'm sure TJ is up for it too.

Unfortunately I'm in Shanghai this weekend...so I wont be able to make another game this weekend....but talk to TJ and he may be to hook up the server again for all to play.

Peace. Out.

I would love to have some Cuban cirgars but the way the USA is right now I would more than likely be thrown in jail because they would think that it was a WMD
