There seems to be a certain amount of whining over pings on the US servers by a few EU teams. Let me take a moment to clear this issue up.
* 150 ping isn't that bad
* ETL has no EU servers & our server sponsor is NA only
* I probably sent emails to 15 different EU server providers trying to find a EU server sponsor for this & got no response from most.The few that had the decency to respond respectfully declined.
* If you check the Team sign up form there is a field to submit your server for approval to be used. The only requirements were that it stream to PBBans & running the correct ETL config. Of all the EU teams that submitted servers for use, only one (Titanz) was streaming to PBBans. We had a team the other day whining about server ping & when asked if they had their own server they said yes, we have 8. I was dumbfounded. If you have 8 servers surely you can set one up to be used for an hour or so once or twice a week rather than whine. This cup was planned out over a month in advance & why teams wait till it comes time to play & then complain is beyond me.
I apologize for the sw_goldrush_te_2 download link being dead yesterday. Big thanks to eZe for getting the map to those who needed it. The link is now fixed. I've been extremely busy & I apolgize for my absence during the past weeks matches. I help an elderly couple with their farm as they cannot maintain it alone any longer & have no kids to help them. With winter coming they've had alot they've needed to get done.
For those questioning the difference in sw_goldrush_te_2, there is none. It's nothing more than the version the Americans use which has some updated sounds. All I did was rename it & all the files within to ensure that there was no conflict with players having the 2 diff versions with the same name. Also when the map came up a few weeks back in the ETL 6v6 finals, it caused the ETTV's that were connected to disconnected due to incompatible version. This will also remedy that problem.
Finally, concerning the Oasis time limit...Oasis was not in our regular season schedule this season & therefore the time limit wasn't set in the config. I overlooked this when I scheduled it into the cup.
This can be easily fixed by call vote>set time limit 20 min
dfiance matches are officially on hold & if I don't receive the donation by Saturday I will offer the spot to re-play (3rd place team).
I don't have time to be hounding people for money nor do I like to. Between myself & my wife we already have $75 invested trying to help teams out. When you signed up for the qualifier it was with the understanding that if you placed 2nd you would be required to make half the entrance fee & I would appreciate if you honored that commitment.
izi 4 us :)
about the sw_grush_te version i really don't know why pushing out a new version that isn't needed at all. since we have this file: http://kai.eyeshoot.de/~kai-duisenberg/ftp/stuff/sw_goldrush_te.35346c4f.pk3 which fixes the issues with the us/eu version of goldrush. just put it into the etmain folder of your ettv server and you can connect to a server with the us version running without any problems.
Regardless, that wont fix player incompatibility issues & download loops & most player aren't aware of the fixes, hell most players weren't even aware there were 2 diff versions of the same map.
This map removes all those issues & people act as though you trying to change the world. Why try to apply several different fixes for different aspects when 1 map fix takes care of it all. Really I could care less if they played Super Goldrush so long as everybody had the same version.
As for the servers from gamesTV, thats up to the teams to pursue. I'm already providing servers.
tho there should be some playable US servers aswell located on the east cost (around 120 ping)
no guids needed for them?
and get shave
2nd, you have no way of proving your brighter than me (as vice versa) so i guess well just have to agree to disagree. If you really are that intelligent, go do something useful rather than acting like a cock :(
SO STFU OR POST A PIC OF URSELF
UNDERSTAND ENGRISH?
sorry for explaining myself, people paid $$ to participate. Felt I owed an explaination
:>
And agree about the ping issue, 150 ain't hard at all. 90% of the time you don't experience problems anyway.
150 ping while the opponent has an average of 60, 30 mins timelimit (normal oasis), yes that's what I call a succes.
It's easy to whine after instead of before, but in this case it's a bit too fucked up so the whine is not so random after all :-)
And not all in your team had 150, for example you had 130 :D
et antilag is so bugged that it affects a lot more than you think
If you signed up for this, quit whining or you shouldn't have signed up in the first place. None of this is unexpected.
And when all 6 guys have got 150 ?
One mate died :
him <-> server = 150 ms
server <-> me = 150 ms
300 ms to see he's dead \o/
Oponent has got 50 ms -> He already pwned me xD
I think we could play first map in US and second in EU.
If I joined a euro tourny and suggested that, they would just laugh their asses off.
In this cup there is 8 euro teams with a total of 12.
Let's count how many US teams there is
Problem is,out of all the EU teams, one submitted a server that streams to PBBans out of 3 that did submit.
PBBans streaming is mandatory for a variety of reasons.
HAHAHAHAH ALL MY MONEY ON BIITTI!!!!
