Pathetic.

SgtFury · April 14, 2005, 04:00:59 PM

wow that was quick work that only just happened :blink:

we did have a lot of aliens quit before that happened in all fairness.

I wouldn't say typical, more like occasional

pardzh · April 14, 2005, 05:34:09 PM

Sorry I couldn't be there to help them stack even more.

Goldy · April 14, 2005, 06:38:11 PM

Hey now, the marines winning is hardly typical. :p

Stacking ISN'T a good thing....

I don't think he meant it was a good thing, or maybe he was joking.

Either way, that kind of sucks. Unfortunately, it happens.

EmperorPenguin · April 14, 2005, 10:08:36 PM

People were behaving earlier today, but I know it happens more often than we'd like. I personally don't feel I have the skill to balance a team out one way or the other, but I often try to help the unstacked team. I guess I am better than when I started playing here, but I'm no Holy Devil.

But even I, benevolent as I am, sometimes get tired of anti-stacking and losing. Times like that I join the stacked team and enjoy an easy win.

But nothing is definite. I've seen some hard-fought games against stacked games, and plenty of non-stacked ones too.

I must admit to stacking, but of a different kind. I rarely stack with those who are skilled; as in, I join Marines because Person A is amazingly skilled. I'd usually go to a team with people whom I like - not necessarily skilled; but just those whom I enjoy playing with. Even if the other side is stronger, I'll join the one on which the players are nicer

I think.

Iconoclast · April 14, 2005, 11:54:44 PM

what?

suX.evan is decent - and rad is no slouch, hellbilly was comm.

maybe its me tho

Man that is bad, 4 minutes in and you dont even have a built chamber.

SgtFury · April 15, 2005, 01:48:27 AM

We did but they were knifed down

That is after the gorge (me) had to regorge a 2nd time as my first egg was killed by a marine in our own hive and the skulk nearby couldn`t kill him.

This picture was taken as they were taking the hive down with lmg and 1 shotgun.

To say we were boned was an understatement.

Plus evans lerked and died in first battle to ebnar, and rad only joined 1 min before the picture.

Welcome to lunixmonster. The server where everyone is either too nub to know how to build or too good to want to build. Which reminds me, I need to go nominate a certian regular who has a wonderful habit of dropping all three chambers as soon as the game starts every time he goes alein.

And to he rest of you. When I yell, "who has chambers?" over the voicecom, that is not an oppertunity to ignore me, that is an oppertunity to delegate! If you really don't want to drop upgrades you better have a reason. Silence is NOT FRIGGING GOLDEN!

About the stack, it doesn't LOOK that bad from the playernames, but evidently a few skilled players shouldn't have overestimated some of the names on the alien team and not rushed ebnar.

and 1/4, is THAT why you always join my team if you come halfway into a game? <3

I guess that explains why you're always on the other team from me. o_O

I try to avoid you, but most of the time I end up missing your name on the team, joining it by accident

keke.

Eeeexactly.

Malevolent · April 15, 2005, 10:31:21 AM

The stacking seems pretty bad to me. If I am correct, 2 people (including the admin) have an RS on the aliens. Four people have one on the marines. Plus the marines have an extra player. Somone said that Rad had just joined. The teams don't look even to me.

Necrosis · April 15, 2005, 01:12:47 PM

Got Stack?™

Yeah I thought everyone would get that. My bad...

UKchaos · April 15, 2005, 03:20:47 PM

I'd love to see autoassign only enabled on the server. So F1/F2 or alien/marine portals all act as random team.

Ignore any whiners, its for the best :p

Not only that, but marines have ebnar... and vortex seems to be holding his own pretty well two, although I can't say I have ever played with him.
