1.0 Succession Game Discussion Thread

[Bootsiuv]

We won't be using the program. It isn't free, so unfortunately, it isn't for us.

We're checking into alternatives.

[PershsNhpios]

No Senator Leao, it is not.
This, I have told you all, that it was not a definite change.
However, for the amount of players we will be hosting within our meetings,
X-Fire will simply be impossible to apply to our wishes!
It will not support five people talking in a room, let alone our entire Senate!
mIRC is not going to be made official either, as it is not free.

Therefore, Bootsiuv and I are in a demonic chaos, attempting to decide a platform on which we can debate, the entire constitution of gameplay rules and guidelines, and organising all of our new players and assignments!

Be patient, and be sure, that nothing is certain until we have here said so.
And therefore, nothing is certain as we have not yet ever said so!

The only things I can reassure you of are these; that we are soon to be beginning our succession game; that the constitution will be finished today; that we will very shortly apprise you of the chatroom program we will use; and that we are doing all these things most expediently, that you may all soon enjoy the idea created by Bootsiuv.

[Bootsiuv]

We will be using MSN as our platform, as I and Glenn have been talking, and he has informed me of free chatrooms.

Bootsiuv

[PershsNhpios]

Yes, MSN Messenger is our new candidate.
However, Bootsiuv is yet to download this device and test it for himself.
Therefore, those of you who do not have MSN Messenger, do not yet download it and create an account.
This may change, Bootsiuv may discover something within the program that he does not agree with the same as I.
Wait until it has been tested.

[Spoofa]

X-fire works... everybody I've talked to (Ive used xfire for at least 3 years) says this is some bug, not a permanent error.

dont discard this amazing messenger system so easily glenn, I've easily had 100+ people in one chatroom before, Why you may ask? well some people like to try and invite as many people as they can into a chatroom, pointless, maybe, fun, you tell me.

[Bootsiuv]

Well, perhaps I spoke in haste!

We'll get it figured out by game-time regardless.

Why not use Skype?You can open chats and add with any amount of people.

[Sassem]

So fellow family members what do you think of the building browser i'm creating for this game this can be found here it' still very Beta

I just like to have some feedback about this concerning

--do you like it?
--does the page load quick enough for you?
--is it helpful for the game?
--do you think the building pictures are to big?

you have to see it like this every settlement we are going to own (a a lot hopefully) will be represented in there so image your self a browser with 50+ settlements

If anyone of you have some tips about it just let me know

I'm using

Adobe indesign cs3--->templates for the sig's
Adobe photoshop cs3--->for copy/paste stuff a 1000 times
microsoft office excel 2003--->template for the building browser
and of course photobucket for storage

So please if you have tips or trouble about the building tree please let me know

i need feedback because it's going to be a lot of work to set things up and to maintain
so if you think it isn't going to work (helpful) ok just let me know
so i can start actually playing EB10 instead of cutting it a part

For now i'm going shopping after that i 'm going to play EB i almost forgot how it looks in gaming mode

Noble Sassem, the browser seems exceptional for me and it loaded pretty quick. Never been in a Sucession game before so I do not know if it will be the most useful or not and I liked the initial size of pictures, but it may get a bit too dense with a whole lot more of buildngs perhaps, something 3/4 the present size?

Yes you're right all pictures should be 25%

Hmmm that will be a lot work i will work something out

ps if somebody needs me i'm on X-fire just give a call as it may look i'm online in here i will probably working in the background so i will not respond that much here for a while but i will read your suggestions

Okay gents, this SHOULD be the LAST version I have to make enless there are other things reported that might screw over our game, this fixes the client ruler's movement penalties so we can sally with client rulers.

[Bootsiuv]

Great work Spoofa.

I must apologize to Glenn, for not returning online last nite, as I was held up.

I would like to finalize the rules today.

I have gleamed several good ideas from Glenn and Boru, and I would like to thank them for their help in this matter.

Bootsiuv

[Malik of Sindh]

So when will we start?In a day?Or two?Spoofa,ill test your mod later since im simply too lazy now.

[Bootsiuv]

The answer to that question is....as soon as everything is ready. Check back daily if possible. I'll keep you updated.

Bootsiuv

[Malik of Sindh]

OMG Spoofa I'm sorry,but this is really starting to piss me off.

I cannot enable script again.I get the same error when i exit the game.
"Cannot recognize token end_script"
What causes this?Ill fix it myself if you tell me how.

[Spoofa]

GAH!

here, Ive fixed it I hope, Im sorry about all the many versions, I think i got some of the files mixed up because I have about 3 places where I have the files at so i must have archived the wrong one's.

http://files.filefront.com/City+Mod+.../fileinfo.html

[Leão magno]

Beginning to download now, seems to be working. All in all it includes City mod, Darths formations, what else?

[Malik of Sindh]

I get the same error.Maybe its just me,but I really didin't mod any of my files,i don't see what could be wrong.

[Spoofa]

well, I dont personally get the error with the script, and I copied my script file into the mod so I dunno what could be wrong.

[Malik of Sindh]

It works perfectly.

[NightStar]

That´s good....then I can download it, as the testers have proven it stable

[Malik of Sindh]

I only played for six turns so don't hope too much.
J/k its really stable im already 10 years into my Ptolie campaing.
BTW why doesn't anyone ask how the heck im online day and night?If youre interested i sleep like 5 hours from 7 till 13.

7 to 13 is more like 6 hours.

[Boru]

@ Sassem

I think this will be a wonderful tool and make it a lot easier for everyone to see what is going on in each province. It makes sense to me what you have set up and i love it. Obviously you will still be fine tuning it, but its a great start. As for technical help i have no experience with those programs. Keep up the great work

Did you knew that there are 14.826 pictures in the eb folder with the .tga behind it

and there not sorted or named in a logical way for me

[Boru]

WOW thats an insane number and if there is any way i can possibly help i would love to. Thats one big project you have going.

[pezhetairoi]

Well, when's this whole thing going to be starting? I'm chafing at the bit and raring to go and add my discordant voice to senatorial debates. XD And this will then become the OOC thread while an official thread is begun, right?

[Bootsiuv]

That is correct, Pezhetairoi. This will remain our OOC thread during the game, as creating an actual OOC thread would be redundant IMO, and this way we'll keep all OOC discussion in one place for easy reference.

We'll also be beginning as soon as possible, as there is still a few minor things that I must do. The constitution is all but completed, and several members have been very helpful regarding this area of our game, most notably Glenn and Boru. I thank them for their input, but have completed our in-game constitution, and now plan on moving forward.

That being said, check back as often as possible. I may put the council thread up as early as tomorrow evening, but I require Sassem online before I do. I will post our official nominations for Shophet in the announcement post (post #2) of the council thread, with voting to be held over the next 24 hours. The usual time for the first Shophet's term may be reduced so we can make our scheduled live meeting next Saturday.

I ask that all members now PM their X-Fire addresses (or a mssg saying you won't be participating in live debates), and the time you'll most likely be available every Saturday, so that I may compile them and give them to Sassem who will have them input into a spreadsheet for quick and easy reference. This will also give me an official tally of our player list, so no-shows and inactive players will be done away with/demoted.

Think of this as the official roll call. If you do not PM me, then I will place you on an inactive list. You will not be taken off of this inactive list until you PM me here. This is a way to keep tabs on who is in, and who may need to be done away with (no-shows), or demoted (inactive governors). Thank you for your cooperation.

I also personally apologize for any problems our members have had with the SSbQ Succession Game Mini-Mod, as it were. Spoofa has changed several aspects of our game and working out all of the bugs does take some time. I do STRONGLY encourage that you make certain to create a back-up of the original files that are overwritten (although I may provide a link to a fresh unaltered set of files as a back up before we begin the game).
