Title: Jk2 and MoH ladders
Post by: Jackal.aHa! on February 24, 2003, 02:18:09 am
Now that *DAMN has a GhR ladder, what about Jedi Knight 2 and Medal of Honor battle leagues.  Both games have clans forming and are growing popular.  It was just a thought, because i know it would make extra work for the admins.

Another major thing I've been working on...

I've been on this since these games came out jackal, so I wouldn't lose any time. I've asked Mauti about this for a while and he said that *DAMN is for strategy games and that "those games are more like quake". So, for the benefit of the mac community I decided to make ladders for these games. However, it's taking me a long time because Mauti and Ellandrion refuse to give me the php of *DAMN to use as a base, so I'm developing it from scratch. I can host it from my house but if anyone knows PHP very well (please dont contact me if you "sorta know PHP") I would be interested in working with them because I "sorta know PHP" which really means im having a hell of a time and I feel like a complete noob.

Or, you guys could just go to www.magleague.com where they have ladders for those games already set up.

It's pretty rediculous to have a JK2 and MoH ladder on a website that is hosted by www.planetrainbowsix.com, isn't it?

Two responses

Buccaneer ? we need GR/Mac only ladders.

Kami ??since *DAMN refuses to host them (for good reason), I would likely host them myself, or if that sux, find somewhere else to host them.

Ross, magleague.com is the Macintosh Gaming League.  So it is for macs.  As for being GR only.  Why?  The DAMN BL isn't for GR only (or some of the people in CB's couldn't be there.)

The reason we didn't host ladders at MacClans was because to be good, ladders need lots of participation.  And splintering the already small Mac community doesn't make sense.  So it seemed like a better idea that we work together.

And MaG lets you set up CB's on GR if you want, or on MagNet.  You could probably even run the JK2 ladder, since it still needs help last time I checked.

Well Buccaneer, that's good to know that not only GR people can benefit from being in clans but other services for MAC computers as well like Maggaming League.  Far out. I am glad that is the case.

Anyone that Can find me a good place to host one then i'll do it. :)

Casper, that's my whole point.  You want to concentrate the players in one spot, not dilute them into many.  If you guys just pushed everyone that clans in those games towards one spot, it would work out fine.  It's a hella lot easier just getting people to the right spot if all the ladders and everything are made, then making all of them and getting people to the new spot.

Oh the ownage Bondo, Brain and I would have in an MoH ladder.  ***Calls Bondo out of retirement and tells him to install MoH again.  We'll be ready for it Bull.  ;D

Casper, what they need is someone that wants to push it.  You have a couple guys here pushing for it, saying they will work on a ladder, but they wont just go into MaG and push it from that end.  I don't get that.  MaG isn't a clan like DAMN is.  You, or Saberian, or Ross or Bronto could go in there at work it.  Nothing stopping you at all.

Anyone that has said they'd be all for it, or that they'd help out should  be helping out there, and pulling the players over there for it.  If you are waiting for an invite, consider yourselves invited.  Jump right in.
