Team 2, Listen up! I dunno if the Lazytown folks are even in the competition anymore, as they still haven't played the turtles, and they wont respond to my match sanctions. We have a default time of

Apparently, I stole Brushfire's DJ status for one night yesterday as people continuously requested micspam songs for about 2 hours straight.

Courtesies of Chili for starting it. I may be back for it in a week.

There seemed to have been results submitted for their Turtles match, but it hadn't been updated on the main scoreboard. I think it might have had something to do with the high number of people listed that weren't actually playing on the server that are still listed in the results.

Do we even know if we're still in the comp? I read the rules on the site and they seemed to suggest that we were supposed to do a tie breaker versus that other team, which we didn't do. So now it's just...limbo..

We tied our match, which happens. There is no tie breaker unless it is for the ladder advancement.

If the results are correct that means that mathmatically, the Lazytown regs are in the lead of our division with 12 - 0, we are second with 9 - 3, BG is 3 - 9, and Turtles are last with 0 - 12.

The only way we can advance is to roll the Lazytown folks, but they still haven't confirmed a time yet. With this development, they may be kicked out.

Though those look like all BG folks, and they may be kicked out. Who knows. The rules are all screwy.

Hey, hey, hey! I was the one who started it! (Also the StarFox quotes.) I stopped after Jaswald politely asked me to not play music anymore and I complied. Chili started up his after me. :P

And there was that one guy who ignored me when I said to watch the language and asked why he should listen to me.

"Player has been banned by ParanoidDrone (Reason: Because I'm an admin.)"

(It was only for a half hour, calm down.)

I asked several times for you guys to cut back on the music :P

I don't mind it but the entire match for several maps gets really tiring, especially if you want to listen to your own music while playing.

Kinda miss the days when music was limited to setup.

It's annoying when loud, but otherwise I don't have a problem with music ingame. If last night was any indication, it also does a great job of loosening everyone up socially, which I see as a plus.

if anyone tells you your music is too loud

make it quieter

don't bitch about people hating fun - chances are they like music but they just hate how loud it is

That's another thing, even those of you who try to limit the volume it still ends up too loud. All I'm asking is that you turn it off if someone requests it, which our players seem to have a problem with.

I follow that rule as best I can when I'm mike spaming. So far I've only really seen maybe one person who wouldn't stop playing stuff when people asked him but that's all.

I agree that this would be annoying in this case (or if you're trying to hear game sounds or something), but at the same time, I have to ask, why not just mute the music-spammer, if the rest of the group (or most of them anyway) are enjoying it?

I can't mute anyone client side as an admin, if they were doing anything bannable I need to be able to hear them. Besides, server rule isn't "mute them and deal with it", it's "politely ask them to stop and they should comply".

do you think that personally muting somebody is going to magically make everyone else on the server incapable of saying anything about it

because that's seriously the only possible reason that idea is justifiable

No, but I don't mute people anyway and it's good to know what's actually being said. If I'm going to mute someone, it's gonna be server side and it's going to have a reason.

I don't think it's fair for everyone else to have a little less fun because 'an admin has deemed it necessary'

I mean tomorrow I will hop on the server when you are there and play a song - if you think my music is too loud, it is likely a problem with your volume :/

Posted

Like it or not it's still a server rule that if you're asked to stop playing music you stop. As to my receive volume I keep it really low.

Not sure why you're bothered that not everyone has to sit and listen to the same thing you want to, it's not like I demand it to stop the moment it starts instead of after several maps and a couple hours.

Thank you, that's the reason I was looking for. Makes more sense now.

Guys, if an admin asks you to turn off your music, turn it off.

I'm not questioning the rule. Vimk's responses were coming off as "grrr hate music do not want screw the rest of you". Which is why I asked about the client-side muting.

In other news, thanks to Bardic for that suggestion of poking the irc channel(s) about a versus game of l4d2. It seems to work, and I got a few new people on my list I can poke about playing if me and my friends need some people to fill out slots. :nicework:
