I was laughing my head off when it happened.
I love how joe immediately starts to blame someone for calling teams.

Re: Fix the scoring?
Yes, we need a list like that and I don't want to do the math lol. We have all the code for the balancer ready to modify. Currently each player has an internal score used for balancing. I wanted to add a scaling factor for known players. For the average player this is 1.0 but for better players it ...

Re: Fix the scoring?
All this talking about stats made me want to do some analysis on the UTstatsDB. I chose the top 135 players ranked by play time, which turned out to be everyone above ~12 hours on Omni 2.0. % Wins average: 45%, Standard Error: 11% Effectiveness average: 43%, Standard Error: 9% % Wins looked gaussian...

Re: Fix the scoring?
Disagree on balancing by win ratio or percentage, it's too simplistic of a metric. There are some good players that get shafted with crap teams more than others, so their win % is going to be lower. Example, pooty and McLovin both have a 44% win rate... but, no offense to McLovin, pooty is a strong...

Re: Fix the scoring?
It's not only important to charge a node, it's vital to charge the node while fighting off attackers until the node builds, even if you die in the process. Such sacrifice is a good measure of a real team player. Somewhere deep inside many players, I think, is a fear of their avatar dying, a remnant...

Re: How many maps/how long should the Map Rotation be?
Thanks, I think I just overestimate the fragility of the community, which probably would be the case if everyone played as sporadically as me.

Re: How many maps/how long should the Map Rotation be?
I may be counterproductive, but I stopped voting a few months ago. I felt really bad if I won the vote, but half the players leave since they hate that map. I justify it by utilizing the wisdom of the crowd. That being said that wisdom only works if people vote. I think a tiered/ranked voting (i.e. ...

Re: Who were your most loved/hated Omni players?
Hyden is probably the most prolific game chat spammer in the history of UT, while doubling as his team's official boat anchor. CEONSS can have him. Looking back, this is the reason I got to talking with him. I had to chat due to a combination of idiocy (tried plugging in my mic setup wrong, couldn'...

Re: Are you a rage-quitter?
I've meant to "sandbag" before (if you'd call it sandbagging when team has no nodes and low core), but I can't manage even when loss is inevitable (or do you think it's never inevitable? i.e. name it and claim it). It's Pavlovian, if I've joined I have to shoot stuff. Although I do screw a...

Re: Who were your most loved/hated Omni players?
Ah yes I remember Pastor and there was also JimmyTheDentist (who I believe wasn't really a dentist). They were on DW all the time back in the day. Ah yes JimmyTheDentist too, I remember. I started on DW, I liked the hitsounds since my ping was crap and it was the only way I could find the lead for ...
