Code of Honor

[Wishazu]

i think a tag is a good idea, it will help code signees identify each other more easily :)

[Lord Preston]

but how would you stop people just using them without signing up?

[Wishazu]

to be fair allmost nobody is gonna know what it means and probably wont bother about it. how many times have you seen peoples wierd tags in their nicks and not given them a second glance, i allmost never remember the names of people ive just played against, unless it was a particularly glorius battle :) the like the one we just played where i saved your ass ;)

Greetings my friends
Strength & Honour to you all.
I think the Code of Honour is a great idea

i only have reservations about this talk of balanced armies & limiting choices. Are we not better & more honourable to learn how to defeat those which we find most threatening?
and thus increase our skill & enjoyment of the game without putting restrictions on the enjoyment of others.

If you are interested in more detail on my views on this see
http://p219.ezboard.com/fclanwars354...picID=15.topic

I seem to be somewhat of a lone voice for tolerance on this matter but none of these so-called spam armies are unbeatable, think outside the square, find enjoyment from finding ways to defeat these armies

I remain, as always, your humble servant

hello mate, welcome to the .Org your point about the armies is fair but we are not really afraid of facing these armies, we just want to be able to play decent games, its so much more fun playing a thinking opponent rather than 1 who puts all his eggs in 1 basket and just rushes at you.

Getting closer?

Greetings All
I had not read page 2 of this thread when I posted, i think the idea of giving your opponent some idea of the army you intend to bring while discussing rules & reaching agreement regarding this & all other rules for that particular game cover it nicely

I will be honoured to Sign up to The Code :)

Getting closer?

Very nice :)

[COR BIRD EMII]

i think this is a great idea. but as noticed by other players. peope will notice the tag and make their own tag with their name.
like a new clan came out already with the same tag as the COR except theirs is all lower case.. our clan is thinking about taking them over having a battle to overrun that clan and either they join us or they leave or more than likely a new clan will start after that.
buit this identifying well behaved players i think is a good idea. if it ever happens please let us at COR know about it

Getting very much closer, Tomi, very nice !!!

To base my tactics and strategies on applied skill, never taking advantage of weakness in game's programming or design.

I think that statement really should cover spamming, imbalancies and other exploits without going into all the detail of what is and what is not a "conventional" army.

I wonder if the site could be made so that the individual statements are links - or perhaps show a hint if you hover the mouse over them. Then we could have some additional text explaing the idea behind the particular statement. Somethiing like : "the idea is to avoid exploits like the cav spam in RTW or the sideswipe in MTW or... also encourages to bring a variety of different units rather than relying on the overpowered ones".

Not sure if this can be done, but may be a possibility.


Ohh, and one typo, last statement:

...consists of a wide diversity of people

[Tomisama]

Agreed Nigel,

The “conventional” phrase is has been eliminated. And thanks for the “of”

As far as putting a CoH on the end of your player name, I would say is totally optional. I think that it is a good idea, but that’s up to you. The names will be on the page for all to see, in any case.

When we actually get together for a Rally or a Contest event that is named for The Code, dawning you Code colors would probably the thing to do for sure.

A Rally? Yes, we could have Code Sunday (or whatever) Rally at some point soon, where we could all get together for an afternoon of Honorable fun, to kick things off?

We'll see.

The latest revision has a new address.

http://www.clanwarscomp.org/codeofhonor

Will get an email specificly for Code mail soon also.

Will be going public in a few days, not long now!

Keep the names coming, will try to keep the updates daily

[AquaLurker]

Please include me in the Code of Honor, my online gaming name is 'WinkyWars', it would be great to join you guys in a regular Sunday game.

[Agravain of Orkney]

I think you have nailed it Tomi. Excellent work!

Plz add me to your list of signees.

[Lord Preston]

ok add me to it: MarcusP

any chance of list being alphabetical? sorry if this means more work for you but it will be easier to search for someone on the list.

i propose that to find other players in game who are part of the code of honor to simply ask "any COH members here?" most will think its a clan.

and the list will be simple to check if alphabetical.

[Nigel]

That looks great, Tomi.

I will be honoured to place the CoH blazon upon my shield and stand up for the values of the Code with my good name.

Nigel

[Wishazu]

dont make it alphabetical!!!! i`ll be right at the bottom!!!! :(

[AquaLurker]

lol so will I

[Lord Preston]

damn, you realised my master plan!

[Tomisama]

Aqua and Lord P, I have put your player names up, but still will need your email addresses. If you can just shoot me a quick email, I will be able to add your addy to the CoH mailing list. The list will be the primary means of alerting Code members to future Code events.

Have decided to keep the email roninwarlords@hotmail.com for the time being, as a convenience to me. It is an account that has grandfathered extra stuff, that would have to be paid for on a new account.

Remember the web page has changed if referring folks to it.

Thanks

[Tomisama]

Have you signed The Code?



Come, stand with us!

[Wishazu]

so are we going to be using a tag or not? if so hows about something like *CoH* or >CoH< or {CoH} ???

[Tomisama]

I just added a _CoH to my player name.

I think it would go best at the end of a moniker, as not to interfere any Clan identification which is usually on the front end. Harder to find but still there

And here is another trinket, if anyone who has signed would care to use it.
Going to add it to my signature soon, but haven't got there yet.

[Wishazu]

will add it to my sig as soon as my photobucket account is working again.

[CMDR Coconut]

I like the idea too. I'm in for a try.

I can't stand cheaters and those that take advantage of flaws in software to make themselves as "gods".

The more realistic the better and that takes nobles.

[AquaLurker]

Are we becoming nobles??? I am afraid the peasanst might revolt lol

[Lord Preston]

i already am a noble

but im willing to let you rabble join me

[The_Mark]

Sign me in; I'm just too lazy to send an email ;)
My email for your database: markku_alho@hotmail.com

[Wishazu]

well now, seeing as the code is finalised and we allready have about 20 signees, maybe now we can talk properly about a little tourney. it should be fun

[Tomisama]

24 as of this Monday morning (not all on the page yet).

With 2 more posting here, but who have not sent their player names in yet.

codemember@hotmail.com

That would give us 26.

But the announcement (sent in) has not hit the front page of the Org yet!

We’re really just getting started in getting the word out

[The_Mark]

Ah, sorry. My player name is The_Mark. Still too lazy to email :)
