Is it just me? Why doesn't anyone want to play a LIVE game?

Postby sxWolf on Tue Jan 30, 2007 2:19 pm

Just curious :?: (as HELL :evil: )
Why on earth does nobody (which is more like everybody here) want to actually playing out a game "live"; as opposed to a move a day or every 6 days for #6 players?
I would have thought a "prefer live play" discussion thread would exist,
or a "prefer live play" mod from creators would exist, or a
"prefer live play" game type/option would exist, or something....
Out of hundreds of players and countless hours of effort by coders and admin's - there seem's to be NO interest in playing out a game all at ONCE???
Not bitch'n, just darn curious :roll: HOW can so many people actually LIKE taking days and weeks to play a simple game??
All sincere (non-flamming responses) appreciated in advance!

I enjoy not having to take all my turns at once.

But there are many that do. Most of them set up games in our Live Chat section of the site.

And in the future speed games will be added to the site. Check out the suggestions forum To-Do list for other things in the works.

As stated, check the live chat as that seems to be where the majority are played. I play live a lot I have quite a few games under me most of them live or real time as they are commonly called.

Depends how much time is on your hands, I run around 20 games at a time so generally in an evening i'm looking at around 10 turns - more than enough to keep me occupied. I want to see the realtime developed more - but its no where near a priority for me.

Tals

p.s and as with most polls yours is skewed to your way of thinking which makes it pretty pointless :roll:

I agree with you, Tals...

And sxWolf, you really DIDN'T do a lot of research before posting this in RED, ITALICIZED letters...

moz976 - thanks for suggestion re: adding to the to-do list... I had tried live chat but there was such great clamour & no real response to that form of asking; nor did anyone else ask about RT publicly. The one player who did respond proceeded to take one turn and leave; hence the thought that an actual game format that would "boot" inactive players would help differentiate each players interest. Was new so thought to ask around rather than presume I was worthy of using the to-do list but shall.

Neophilum- asking isn't a pronouncement...Try just giving your opinion rather than saying "us" to back yourself up (speaking of pronuncements!)

Koku - Yep, tired chat, didn't work for me, might be time of day thingy.. I hope you voted in poll to reflect your interest

wicked - ya got the bomb hair & stuff, not sure bout the mustache though. While sarcasm is appreciated "hun" - I HAD tired live chat. Re: your helpful callout suggestion. Most are indeed for non-RT; hence my continued perplexedness (and stuff).
What few RT callouts were there are largly unresponded too or cancelled such as : http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11478

tals - I believe 10 turns in a day is your personal max, hence the poll. The only thing skewed is your thinking. "most polls"??? Why do I doubt you even responded to it? Perhaps if all four answers were "What, I don't get it", or "Bush lied" you'd be okie-dokie..

anarch - Does the color red offend you honey? Does italicized scare ya? Should I have researched the answer "before" I asked? Hmmm I think the sheep are rubbing off on ya at home. But thanks for sharing that you "share" someone ELSES opinion and that you think I should conform even in terms of font selection and that I should get the answer before asking. {I take it having just one more game option might blow thou mind} Please vote accordingly; that is if tals says its okay, okay?

Thanks too all who can understand this is a public forum for all kinds of people with different knowledge levels, wants and interest to converse as they each choose - thus allowing others to read and learn. (thus far and yet too come). 8)

Speed games are coming. Also you should have looked at some other posts/ threads before you post rude things and make biased polls.

...and then there is Hawkeye who "feels";

A) It is rude to ask "Is it just me" as a subject heading
and,
B) It is biased to ask "Who would rather play a game all at once?"
with both a positive , a negative and a neutral coice.

Now making a poll asking "Why you are such an idiot" - yeah, that might just be.... but this was about the game format. Write a new thread if you don't want to contribute a relevant opinion or suggestion why the majority clearly prefer a non-RT setting.

Hawkeye..... hawkeye. You need NO HELP seeming to be "what you are" . It's all too painfully clear. LOL!! Don't fault the poll cause it doesnt have an answer tailored to your INSANE P.C. issues, please!

pardon me, but the questions you "asked" were clearly rhetorical and meant at pronouncing on the subject of realtime games on CC, a subject you were obviously quite ignorant about. you weren't actually asking "how can there be so many people here who don't want to play fast?" that's obvious. you were expressing disapproval about slow gameplay. we're all trying to tell you that being a precocious punk isn't a good thing, and that you should open your eyes before your mouth.

cheers, fuckface

Oh me oh my, i just thought everyone should know that this was just pm'ed to me by the venerable sxWolf:

Little bitches like you don't even rate a reply. You must get irate over nothing because you are as retarded as your inbred mother and family.
You can't help it can you little biatch?

I won't bother to reply to your childish, hostile forum remarks because you make a perfect example of yourself as a ignorant, stupid, filthy and not least of all little pussy that your are in real life. run little bitch run

I love stomping closet pedo's like you that dare to come out in the light, dixieboy. Of course your to chicken for real life. BEST you stay scared!

Cry from a distance, yell at strangers anonymously. What a joke your are!
Are you scared of talking to men in public places?

Speaking of f*ck face... or rather your uncle's - have you inbred a little boy you can lick ass with? Now that is YOUR speed ain't it punk!

Ha ha ha ha .

Eat shit retard. You will never be literate enough to make a point using the written word.

The forum, nor the rest of the world is about you and that must hurt.
Waaaaaaaa
Shut the f*ck up cry baby before you make yourself sound even more faggy! Embarassed too late


Hmm, seem to have touched a nerve. I guess i just have to say:
1) If i don't rate a reply, then what was that?
2) It seems a bit hypocritical to say that i got irate in the middle of a rant like that
3) It's hard to believe that my literacy is being questioned by someone who uses fag, retard, pussy, biatch, troll, and inbred as insults
4) insert mom joke here

cheers again, fuckface

FYI I responded to the one I felt you didn't want chosen - that's how a cr** poll works. If it helps that I think it would be a good feature but as indicated before I have quite a few more items i'd prefer above that - stopping new players joining team games, showing the time left on game turns, allowing a private game to be made public, stats and more stats (or allowing the stats data to be interogated are some at the top of my own list.

By most polls - I should have clarified by "most polls in this forum".

A more neutral poll -

Yes
No
I don't care

Expand as you feel free - neutral polls arn't difficult.

Alternatively you could just have read the suggestions forum (where this should be) and realised the option had already been requested and was in the todo list :).

Thanks too all who can understand this is a public forum for all kinds of people with different knowledge levels, wants and interest to converse as they each choose - thus allowing others to read and learn. (thus far and yet too come). Cool


Nicely said - it does of course go both ways, you have to take the rough with the smooth and accept not everyone may think your suggestion is the best thing since sliced bread :) Take a look at the todo list - loads of good stuff in it.

p.s what's with Bush? He isn't my president.

the PC stuff and the "Bush is a liar" comment make sxWolf sound like your typical right-winger American--anyone who disagrees with him is automatically a liberal, which is of course automatically bad. oh, and also a liberal who is not concerned with "truth" but only political correctness......

I would have voted in your poll if there were an option that says I play many of those. As I said, the majority of my games are rt. Most of us were trying to be helpful but your just an ass. And, like many have said you should have searched through the site looking for an answer before coming and asking cause, well no way will you be getting anymore help from anyone who sees this.

Come on now could we not lump him in with me, he is psychotic and needs help. None of the right-wingers I hang out with are like this at all and I know a shitload. BTW, by saying it the way you did you sound just like him but on the opposite side of the spectrum but with an air of superiority.

word, i can respect that. i guess i shouldn't have used the word "typical," as if there is a universal concept of a right-winger. there are plenty of righties who aren't as paranoid as i stated, it's true.....i guess i should have said that sxWolf sounds like a rush limbaugh/bill o'reilly, i.e. just dismiss those who disagree by saying they hate bush or are PC-liberals....

and i don't think i really took a position on the political spectrum, just critiqued the kind of rightyspeak going around these days....or i could be wrong there....peace
