General Discussion / FFA on Chinese client Netease
« on: July 07, 2016, 12:46:10 am »
A few fun facts on playing FFA on Netease, since I am probably one of the few who played FFA there.

1- FFA is a custom game only, there is no ladder

2- unlike common feeling about it, FFA is not disliked. You can find a game nearly at any hour. But there is no competition, so no hype around it.

3- They play only two maps : Emerald Gardens and Raging Streams. I tried to host Market, nobody joined!

4- There aren't any Garena like noob but I usually can outmicro most of them

5- No hoarders or very little. Some do like to try hoarding with mass towers.

6- Since you cannot communicate you cannot manip, which forces you to fight all the time.

7- Once I crossed an opponent in a 4 ways that I really did not want to fight, and he also avoided me. That was the only time though.

8- On Emerald, everybody fights for shredders early on (only 6/12 position have them). So they understand the concept of ressources management.

9- They dont talk much, until you get to the 3 or 4 ways. There I sensed teaming discussions sometimes, but nothing to be compared with what we do.

10- Overall those games are a fun way to relax

General Discussion / Xsplit delay does not work
« on: December 17, 2014, 08:43:23 pm »
Hi,

Since recently, xsplit delay is not working anymore. It means that streamers using this program (Mage, me among others...) cannot add delay to stream anymore.

Took me so long to configure it so it works with my poor connection, also I purchased a premium licence for it so I am not really up to changing to OBS just for that :(

Question is : are we allowed to stream fml games like that? I would understand if we cannot.

General Discussion / I cannot access playffa.net
« on: December 01, 2014, 08:23:17 am »
Hi,

If you type www.playffa.net and it does not work.
If it does not work with tft.w3arena.net neither or tft.replayers.com.

Please mention it here.

Seems like the server provider is denying a massive amount of connections following the last server attack.

I know a few of you already mentioned it to me directly but I'd like to know how deep is the problem

General Discussion / playffa - I decided to stop - outcomes
« on: November 13, 2014, 08:22:48 pm »
I stop :
I mentionned that already to a couple of you guys. I am too depressed to go on.

Yesterday I learnt a couple of new facts about the shit we felt in this week that I will not all disclose. One of them being that the noob that I am thought we could save all the content of playffa if we moved : well we cannot as any decent webmaster knows.

I am tired of begging Zb headadmin to let me access my work. I do not want to stay there anymore at all but if I go somewhere else I lose everything.

playffa was my baby and I liked to see it grow. We were about to reach 1000 members in about 11 months. We usually had between 30 to 60 people online. The chat was always active. We did events that attracted hundred of viewers. We even invented new games, created ladder seasons and so on.

It is too depressing to see it die and just make a new one seeing a couple of guy registering especially after the success of the last solo event. 5 members, 3 posts, 10 guests online = no thanks.

the bots
Bots are paid up until April 23rd 2015 I think. So they can run. I also have enough money from donations to renew them at least once without anybody donating anything, nearly twice. So of course I will not run with that money and will pay the bills up until money runs out.
Or if you are a recent donator and want your money back, just pm me and we will organize the refund.

playffa management
I can point out the domain to one of you or a group of you that would like to take over. You can just pm to me the new structure you want to organize as a chain of command. My fellow admins have my preference of course but if they are not willing then you can debate here and whoever has the agreement of the rest will be given access to what is needed.

Ugri
I am addicted to stuff organization so I will see what I will do. I can probably be useful later somewhere if my mood gets better. At the moment I will just center my attention onto other things.

Shoutout to hayder
I do not want to take someone out of the great community that you are in particular but one day Hayder if you see this, thanks a tons for your help and thanks a million for the massive amount of fun I had when we used to shoutcast games together. I was always looking forward to it, you were always high on cocaine, I could not say a word but i loved it and I will miss it. For those who never saw, one game chosen randomly where i think hayder slept about 4 hours in two days.

Thanks guys for all the fun I had the last few years doing this.

General Discussion / thanks
« on: November 11, 2014, 06:32:27 pm »
thanks to all of you that posted to show support before zetaboard blocked the thread as they are now communicating with me.

still waiting on what the outcome might be and will keep you posted asap.

I cannot have the bots run unmonitored so thats why they are stopped. Inhouse bot is still there for your entertainment in the meantime if you wanna play anything.

That is why I love this fcking community.

General Discussion / Obs Bug (related to DV's game)
« on: July 20, 2014, 09:44:23 am »
friendly advise for obsbug

it is easy to detect. it does not hit randomly.

start a game with an obs, have the obs leave, see what happens :
1- nothing happens, just play
2- a player disks : this player will disk EVERYTIME that an obs leaves. It means that :

A - dont allow obs then
B - dont finish off some guy building so he obs

News / playFFa.com becomes playFFA.net
« on: January 02, 2014, 10:01:36 am »
Hi guys,

playFFA.com will soon be down and playFFA.net is already up. We changed domain and I assumed that many ffa players woud be confused not to find our site anymore and would come here to ask...

You can already try playFFA.net new main page. It's not completely finished yet but it looks way better than the old one and has a lot more options.


happy new year and...happy gaming, best wishes for S18 to everyone :)

General Discussion / Bots $$$
« on: October 30, 2013, 05:17:19 am »
Hi,

- many of my projects for the bot collaped recently

- I dont want to spend as much time as i did before on the bot from now on (was like average 1 hour a day)

- I invested about 700 $ already

I would like to get some money back so I would be ok to sell the bot for a decent offer. Obviously i wouldnt be head admin after selling and I would transfer all the bot rights to the buyer.

Otherwise I will set up donations and stay head admin just monitoring technical issues and updating map pools. Other topics like fixing games, banning hackers and probably giving admins rights should be taken care off by someone else.

Gz/Meeds/Searcher have done a very good job this past month and would keep doing so if i stay but we could use some more help.

I'm open to any suggestions : as for the forum, it could be moved back since the new site will never be created unfortunately.

I hope not to get flamed here by my usual fan club (shikaka rsm lw) and i would appreciate some strict moderation from the admin team.

Regards,

Ugri

General Discussion / Euros get a game!
« on: September 29, 2013, 10:32:56 pm »
Ok guys, they moved FML-Official on yet another server after working on those winMTR diagnostics you guys gave me yesterday.

So you russians and germans who had massive spikes/lag on the bot, please get a funky game on bot just to see how it goes. I need to try to fix it before going overseas for a month.

- humans7ar
- maga
- yz
- toy0ta/ludix/searcher

I really would like you to try and test the new server on bot#2 and give me feedbacks

FML-Leaguebot : private bot / FML Official bot - be friend
« on: September 16, 2013, 09:53:50 pm »
Hey,

In the next few days the bot #2 will be renamed FML-Official and will stay up and running under that name.

It is only now before I update the config that I can add friends to the bot friend list.

Being in the bot friend list, while you have added the bot to your friends, will allow you to see instantly the game names of official FML games as well as FML members custom games.

Please post here if you want to be on the bot friend list on Northrend and Azeroth. I think the bot is limited to 24 friends on each realms (fml admins will ofc get it by default).

General Discussion / Bot is Down
« on: September 04, 2013, 08:21:49 am »
Hi folks,

Very bad news today.

Yesterday the whole Neo-Geo forum has been hacked by Kenostrikesback, or by someone who would have hacked his account and destroy the forum 5 minutes after he registered.

It affects not only our little forum but also the whole forum who I recall is more than 14 yo. They will back it up but it will take time.

Just after that, related or not I have no clue, after I restarted the bot it started to host in a odd way. Basically it went back to day 1 hosting in april :

- stats not recorded
- custom maps giving the "fail to authorize map"error
- admins having no more rights
- other shits I dont even want to talk about.

It is like all I did for 5 months just disappeared in one day.

The bot is hence shut down until I can have a technician from lunaghost to look into it... if they can do anything. Forum is down until they can back it up.

I dont know for how long.

This upsets me since yesterday after a few more updates, the bot was beating all activity records on that tuesday, hosting even more games than the 2 previous week ends.

I will give news as soon as I have some.
