Hello, I'm new :happy:

I've joined in the hope of playing Mafia here, as I recently started playing it on TWC and am enjoying this a lot. Unfortunately I can't post in the Tavern yet, and I assume, after reading the FAQs, that this is because I need to be promoted to a regular member first. Besides saying hello in this thread, I'm not sure what I should be doing. On TWC I am active in the Mafia & M2TW forums, but M2TW is somewhat dead here. I don't feel like participating in any other forums than these two here either, so I am asking you what I should be doing to get promoted and have access to the Mafia forums.

Thank you,

[Askthepizzaguy]

Edit your groups to include the gameroom, save changes. Then in a little bit you will have permission to post in the gameroom.

Then contact Generalhankerchief via private message and say hello, and that you've joined to play mafia games. He should be able to answer any other of your questions.

We can have a pleasant chat here if you wish, but you could also browse the Gameroom assembly yard (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/forumdisplay.php?308-Gameroom-Assembly-Yard) after you get permission to post, and you could comment on games that you think would be interesting to join. It's where we plan our takeover of the world game designs, yeah.... that's the ticket.

[Romanic]

Thanks for the timely reply ATPG, I will do as you say.

I'm afraid that's me :laugh4: Should be obvious by my name. I've made it smaller because people often won't write it properly. Romanichine, is odd in english, I wonder how people pronounce it. Anyway, Romanic is shorter and people will usually get it right.

@ATPG: Heh, mini-pizza. I don't know that I deserve that without a single game on the Org.

[Beefy187]

Hey Romanic. Camels or not camels?

[Romanic]

I am trying hard to understand your question Beefy, but I can't figure it out. I'll try a compromise and answer "Marlboro".

[Askthepizzaguy]

I am trying hard to understand your question Beefy, but I can't figure it out. I'll try a compromise and answer "Marlboro".

He wants to know if you worship camels (the animal) as much as half of the orgahs here.

It's an in-joke... there's a social group dedicated to camel worship. With explicit pictures of camels which are probably inappropriate for young eyes. They wouldn't understand the majesty and the grace of the camel, and the sight of such a magnificent creature might turn them into pillars of salt or something.

They are mysterious creatures, and we are unworthy.

[Romanic]

Ha..! I knew something was wrong with this community.

Where do I sign for camel worship? :grin:

[Beefy187]

Oo... Now the anti camel league is on to you..

Hey ATPG! I came for the mafia games, they sound like heaps of fun. Problem is, I have not yet gained access to the Gameroom so I'm pretty useless until my request is granted. Any idea how long that could take?

Am I right in suggesting that you're behind the "Murder Manor" game that's launching? Looks pretty awesome at first glance, I'd have joined if there was space.

Please forgive my form letter response, this is from an earlier post (cut n pasted)

Edit your groups to include the gameroom, save changes. Then in a little bit you will have permission to post in the gameroom. (A moderator has to approve your addition to the gameroom social group, that can take a day or less usually)
Then contact Generalhankerchief via private message and say hello, and that you've joined to play mafia games. He should be able to answer any other of your questions. (He also approves your addition, so that can speed up the process I believe)

Yep, the Murder Manor game is all mine, as is the big Resident Evil (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?123875-Resident-Evil-Dark-Falls-Game-thread&p=2387774&viewfull=1#post2387774) game. :beam: That one is wrapping up, the exciting conclusion comes soon!

[ArpeggiateTHIS]

All is forgiven, and thanks for the advice. I've already requested to join the Gameroom and I'll PM the General now.

A Resi game eh? I'll check that out! Hope you've stuck a good few chainsaw majini in there...

There are several, in fact, but they didn't appear until the basic zombies were eliminated.

That is a LONG read, so fair warning. Also, in true resi style, it's violent, so fair warning there as well. If the prologue captures your interest, be sure to skip down and see the ending even if you don't see all of the middle.

[landlubber]

Hi. I'm landlubber, fan of Total War and Sid Meier's Civilization. I look forward to getting to know all of you.
However, I do have one question: why am I only allowed to post in certain areas? For example, I can post here, but not the gameroom.

[Askthepizzaguy]

However, I do have one question: why am I only allowed to post in certain areas? For example, I can post here, but not the gameroom.

I am sure a mod can answer better than I can, but I'd imagine the reason is because spam-bots and other unwelcome pests, we generally want to keep out of most areas. It makes it easier to spot them, delete their posts, and then ban them from posting. Once again spam ruins everything. I believe I sent you the link at CFC which describes how to get accepted into the gameroom. I think you use the same process to request access to the backroom which is the offtopic place for politics and stuff. Most other places shouldn't require joining, the rest of it mostly talks about total war games.

Contacting generalhankerchief if you haven't already is a great way to introduce yourself to one of the gameroom moderators who likes to greet new members and answer questions you might have. I'm sort of omnipresent, gabby, mildly knowledgeable, and I don't mind answering questions either, so don't be a stranger! :beam: It only takes a few posts and a few days generally to go from junior member to member, but if it hasn't happened by then, let me know and I'll try to see what's up.


Disclaimer: I'm not in charge here. The "Senior member" title just means I have arthritis and memory problems, nothing more... :clown:

[Choxorn]

Although that Senior Memberitis never stops ATPG from getting those mafia youngsters to get off his lawn.

[remake20]

Hi. I yet another one from CFC.

[KukriKhan]

Hello landlubber and remake20, Welcome to the Org! ~:wave:

Askthepizzaguy did a fine job fielding questions. If you fellas post a few more times, we'll move you up to regular Member, and give you the run of the place. I'm sure our Gameroom crowd will be happy to see you. So: once or twice more, so we know you're not a bot or a badguy, please. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Highly recommend Medieval 2.... it contains everything I loved about Rome.

With certain mods it is fantastic. Some people don't like the vanilla as much, and I can see the flaws, but patched and modded it's superb I think.

Only crutch is the AI isn't hard for many players to beat, but then again if you spam cavalry and charge directly forward you win Rome, except against phalanxes, then you can just flank them first. So I think Medieval 2 beats Rome in that regard. Mass cavalry spam is not an auto-win.

I had been in the mood for some Europa Barbarorum (a mod who to this day I still can never spell right the first time around XD) and had been looking around here. I tracked down some old posts of mine and felt nostalgic so I came back ^_^. Also the first time I heard about Shogun Total War 2. Whoo hoo :D....though I still haven't gotten Empire Total war which makes me sad :P. Oh well, Europa Barbarorum and MTW 2 works for me ^_^.

Hi all. I am new here. I am a refugee from the Total War Center.
I play alot of Rome: Total War and am an anvid lover of Rome, her legions as well as her hellenic counter parts. Or should I say, opponents? :laugh4:

Sorry for the double post. I don't think you can get it anywhere else, Spartain. I tried doing a search on google and cam up with nothing but 1 link to the forum at TWC.
I do have SPQR 7.0 plus its patch, not that its helpful anyway. Unless we can arrange to hand it over to you sometime :D

[ELadimari]

Hello Orgers!
Been a fan and playing total war games for a long time. The realistic warfare on the battle field is the most enjoyable part of the games for me. Multiplayer is fun but lacks the depth of the campaigns, however the micro-managment of cities can get a bit tedious at times for me, especially at the end of campaigns.

Recently have found myself playing Shogun again and to my surpise I see Shogun 2 is being made. I'm here browsing the forums and reading about modifying in an attempt to makethe campaigns of Shogun, Medieval, or Rome more challenging.

Hello everyone. Im on CFC, and I decided to make an account here. I have Napoleon and Rome Total War. I will buy Shogun 2 when it comes out,

Well here goes first post!!

Welcome Octavian_of_the_view.

I sincerely hope you enjoy your stay. I am not sure how active the Coliseum is, where they discuss Rome, but then again I haven't checked in a while.

I'm a Medieval II Total War fan myself. :grin: Interested in any of the newer games? If you ever feel like chatting about Rome, I used to play it a lot and I wouldn't mind discussing it!

[Octavian_of_the_view]

I would like to get the newer games I've played a little bit of empire and it looks pretty cool. Unfortunately I have a mac and the only total war out for that is Rome. If Feral ever redoes any of the other games for mac I'll be all over them.

[DaveShack]

Greetings! I don't play any of the total war games, but I heard about this place from some mafia players on Civilization Fanatics Center (CFC).
I know mafia is in the gameroom forum (started out there by following a link) but it appears new members can't post there? :huh:

~:wave: Hi DaveShack!

You need to join a permission group to post in the Gameroom. Follow this link:

https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/profile.php?do=editusergroups

or you can get there through the 'Settings' page I think, it's on the sidebar.

When I joined I was also instructed by ATPG to send a PM to one of the moderators of the Gameroom, GeneralHankerchief I think, just for reassurance that I was not a spambot. That might just have been because of the high volume of new people joining at that time, though (ATPG had a big Resident Evil game taking signups) so that might not be necessary.

Is that all correct? I really don't know what I'm doing here but no-one else was answering! :sweatdrop:

[TosaInu]

Hello DaveShack,

It just requires a membergroup to the gameroom, Amsel explained that well.

[biggieboy]

Hi everyone!

My nick is biggieboy, but my real name is Steven.

I've decided to join your lovely family :-)

I also have an account on twcenter.net, where I usually hang out. The main reason why I came here is because of the lovely work the modders are doing on EB2. I'm a big fan of EB1.2, and maybe I can help out wherever possible. If you have any questions about me or anything, just ask, i won't bite (unless you ask me to :eyebrows: )

[OldMan]

Hey, OldMan, here, stuck on 1980's music and movies, over 40, computer geek. Discovered modding when I scripted characters for Baldhur's Gate: Throne of Bhaal and had it down to the point that I didn't even have to play the game during combat; just sit back and yawn. Since then, I experiment once in a while. I play MTW, hated Shogun (could never win the combat scenarios, no matter what, so I tossed it -- if I can't enjoy it, why bother myself with it), but I love MTW. Have not moved up to later versions of Creative Assembly produces because I like the gameboard style of the strategy map (probably b/c I like Chess). Been working on a mod off and on for 3 years now, and I'm chomping at the bit. Picky, tempermental program this is. I've posted my problems, questions and pleas for help elsewhere, and getting some response. Went to college a few years ago and learned PASCAL and QuickBASIC, only to find out that it's worthless now. But, it gives me some entertainment and a little understanding of what I'm working with when I get behind a computer, so I don't regret it. From Kansas, love MTW, 80's music, computers, Chess, Dungeons & Dragons, snow skiing, airplanes, and camping.

[OldMan]

Oh, BTW, I found another thread where people were posting places to find flags, etc. I can't find that thread now, but I did find this:

[TosaInu]

Hello OldMan,

Didn't you have an account here before? I recall a similar name. What's the mod you're working on?

Though outdated, Pascal is a fair start to learn programming. I was so unlucky to get my first experience with Basic on a PC without harddisk. That meant typing spaghetti code for an hour without knowing or understanding anything, followed by a power failure at the moment the code was ready to be run. Do you intend to continue coding?

[Tempiic]

It is so nice to see so many new faces.

Greetings and salutations from the GTMO refugee.

I began playing STW at a friends house in 2001. He was in the middle of a real-time battle when I got there. I wasn't too attracted to playing that part, but when he got to the strategic board, it peaked my interest. I stayed over and played the campaign mode all night, always using automatic battle resolution. I was enthralled with the Shogunate atmosphere of the campaign and paid meticulous attention to raising a champion general that would lead my daimyo's domination of Japan.

Fast foward nearly a decade later and the rigors of adult life leaving less time for gaming left me looking for a game that didn't require constant attention and could be played casually; however, it would keep me engaged at the same time. A game that I could be totally engrossed in, but could abrubtly walk away from and still have the "chess pieces" in place to pick right back up from where I left off. Shogun: Total War immediately came to mind. I patiently kept my eyes out for the game to purchase for quite a while, finally resorting to buy a reproduction of the game after all the legitimate vendors I attempted to buy from said that the specific title was purposefully depleted without replenishment from their inventory.

Nonetheless I know have the game and the pleasure of finding out that a sequal is in development. I had the foturne of stumbling upon the Org while searching for information on STW in regards to what the highest rank a general could accomplish was while running a single player campaign. What I found was much more than the simple answer I was seeking. I believe this site will futher enhance the experience of playing STW and I look foward to contributing during my campaign.

Hi Everyone,

though i've been registering just now, i can't call myself "fresh meat".

I've been a huge fan of the total war games starting with Medeval. After Medeval I in found Rome + Barbarian invasion a quantum leap forward with respect to Medeval I. Though i liked Rome very much Medeval 2 was a sort of coming home for me, all the technology of Rome plus new landscaping and that nice huge array of units. At the moment i'm still chewing on Kingdoms. I chose for the Apaches as fraction, with the most tough level of difficulty. To my estimation the apaches was the most difficult fraction. And i must say, i've difficulty to keep control, my hardest campain for ages (now are you of course telling me the apaches are the easiest :wink:).

I fear i am a slow player, still having my hands full with Kingdoms right now. I take my time in campaigns and my battles do not have a time limit too. The last 2-3 years I was very busy, i never came to the point starting Empire. To catch up, just before Shogun 2 was announced, i bought Napoleon. So on average i'm running one title behind. In spite of this i'm having a lot of fun and decided to join you all to satisfy some latent questions i have.

I want to close this short message with a wish: lets hope the Total War series will stay among us for a long time.

[Diagoalfil]

Hullo everyone,

I just recicled my Rome: TW, and found myself again. So exited I couldn´t wait to finish the campaign and for the first time I must confess: I cheated in Rome. I am playing as the Egypts..
I checked this forum once and again years ago.. Now, seeing it still alive and fighting I finally decided to be a member. About time..
See ya around then!!

Greetings to the .org!

It's been years since I popped my head in these parts, and so little has changed! Though i didn't have a particularly large presence before, it's nice to see some familiar names are still around. As far my TW history, well i started off playing S:TW and then Medieval. I then turned to heresy (console gaming) and have had a TW itch that's gone unscratched for some time. A new pc and some ridiculous steam deals later and i'm back on the saddle, hoping to get involved in the multiplayer community, as well as the community in general.

Also, excuse the username. I was 14 years old!:laugh4: ~:cheers:

EDIT

Glory be, i can change it!

Dear All:

Greetings from the snowed in spot on the globe known as London, Ontario, Canada!!! I hope this finds you and yours well.

I'm Indy, an addicted gamer who has been playing MTW and Civ for quite a few years now. I've just gotten into playing MTW 2 again big time with all the accompanying mods I can get my hands on. I've also gotten back into playing Empire Total War after I bought the gold edition of the game that couples it with Napoleon. I'm a Canadian who just hates the snow, ergo, that's why you find me here.

I greet all my fellow members and hope my stay is a happy long one!!!

Live long and prosper and take care and thank you kindly!!
