There's another piece of the tools that isn't in place yet: figuring out who's the underdog in a more sophisticated way than simply looking at the winner rankings from the last server victory.

While we work on that, we're going to be tuning down the impact of the rewards.

ooooh, tempting. Sadly for you, I have my own bacon.

Only if you don't supply bottles of bleach for our eyes next time.

Well, I suppose I won't share then.

Uh. I'd never do such a thing. Really.

Mead > Rum

There's a bug in the invite queue that we fixed (forget if it's 1.3 or 1.4). I'm not sure how wide-reaching the implications of that bug are, but it'll impact who gets invited.

I agree w/ you guys. I'm going to talk to Design about it. I'd like better control over how I apply those bonuses.

Textures should be better in today's build. Not all better but some better.

Hello all,

I just temporarily closed this until I could finish moderating it so it didn't go more off-topic and out of hand. I know it has been difficult adjusting on this server with all the changes. A lot of different personalities clashing does make it difficult.

I'd like to recommend you all step back and remember the Community Guidelines. If you're unclear, I'll post the things that come up here the most:

-No Flaming
While debate and discussion are encouraged, we will not tolerate rude or insulting posts, personal attacks or inflammatory posts of any kind.

-No Trolling
Posting in a thread for the sole purpose of harassing a user or derailing / hijacking a thread topic is not allowed.

When a thread has more flaming/trolling on it than content, we may decide to lock it down or simply remove it. It depends on a lot of factors. You can be assured that when there are so many insults, inappropriate pictures, videos, links and foul language, it isn't going to stick around long.

Really, we don't mind if you guys are debating. You're doing it quite well and in a very civil manner on this thread. So, let's keep it on topic and hopefully you guys can work it all out.

If you're in-game and you see violations such as I've listed above, you should file a support ticket. Please don't bring it here to the forums. Let the GMs take a look at it and take appropriate action. That is one of the reasons for having them there in the first place.

We (our team, not just me) would like to keep this open so y'all can work it out. Please don't let yet another thread spiral down to the Bad Place(TM).
