shodan

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

> Campaign Features:NO, Fascist double beams: yes,
> Super Spy Advanced:yes, Starbase Fighter Transfer:yes

I do not know much about the balance of the game mechanics, so why do some races get some of their campaign features and others get nothing.
E.g. in my short experience, Fascists are quite annoying with their cloaking and poping ability as it is, why do they get fast beams and therefore rendering my small colonial carriers useless early on?
I personally do not see them as that weak. So why they need that extra boost? (I am not trolling, I am interested in learning the ropes of the game.)

1439 days, 5 hours, 42 minutes ago

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

Shodan. Actually there have been many players that thought Fascists actually did not need so big advantage as double beams. (I am one of them). While weakest EE & Birds definitely needed their upgrades. (that are not so powerful).

1439 days, 5 hours, 18 minutes ago

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

The Superspy, fighter xfer, and double beams are no longer Campaign settings, they are standard racial settings designed to balance the races.

These changes weren't "off the cuff".

I trust the decision making process of the Admin- as they are the ones that see the actual numbers.

Watch @Joshua's presentation from this years Planets Con for more explanation. (Last years presentation for double beam).

1439 days, 1 hours, 50 minutes ago

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

Yes, they have become standard.

mule

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

RE: How does the race selection process take place in this game?

I am waiting anxiously because this is a very important question. I have been assuming each team could pick whatever races they like, maybe submit them to the host to prevent changes after seeing what other teams have chosen, and then joining in those same race positions once the game is posted.

Correct? Or some other plan? Any restrictions? Maybe like having to pick 3 different races? Inquiring minds and all that. :)

1433 days, 16 hours, 31 minutes ago

thejungle

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

I think everyone picks their race and submit it to crystalct. He then forwards the chosen races to Bilbo without letting him know who chose them. Then Bilbo assigns those races to whoever he feels fit.

I could be wrong but thats my understanding.

1433 days, 16 hours, 13 minutes ago

mule

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

@thejungle: Fascinating! It would make absolutely no sense, but it's fascinating.

If we are to be assigned races in such a random manner, why would we bother picking them in the first place? AND, if they are going to be handed out, I would prefer it to be by someone we all know and trust and is not playing in said game. Maybe someone like Big Beefer.

But, before I get all bent out of shape, I'll wait for confirmation on your understanding.

I'm with Mule. The possibility raised would be about as useful as the Chinese Communist Party who give the people of Hong Kong the right to vote freely - for any of the 3 candidates which the Communist Party puts up as candidates.

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

I'm interested in join the italian team assuming the game will not start immediately.
So spend some more time to recruit other players ;-)

About race selection i think every player choose the one he/she prefers.
The submission should be done to someone which is not involved in the game at all.

Every team can choose freely their races even wait the choice of the other team if you think it is a vantage for you (but proving your insecurity). The selection will take place upon entry into your slot without having to declare it previously.
The start will be approximately in the 3rd week of October.
To start we need at least 5 complete teams.

I don't know about anyone else, but I don't like stellar cartography "features" all that much. Mainly because they will effect some races more than others, by luck of position if nothing else. But, I am going into this in the full knowledge that they are there and so will not complain about them past this one mention.

Of course Thejungle has a good idea - it could be changed to the 'Axis' and 'Allies',for Europe but of course, being from Switzerland, unless someone from Luxemborg wants to play - you will still be by yourself :)

If I were the German or Italian team needing another player (depending on what language mkkangas is more comfortable with) there is an opportunity to full a team here. Or maybe an EU team with the single EU players from different countries. Just saying...

Have been following this thread a while and this game sounds very interesting. I expect most of my current games to finish within a few weeks, so if the Nuniverse Cup doesn't start too soon (3rd week of October could be tricky) I'd be interested in joining the Dutch team.

I'm not a very experienced player though. Played back in the 90's with friends and just discoverd NU a few months ago.

I'm a Canadian and would love to play. But I see that our team is already full. I'm also not sure how many teams of 3 are in one "Echo Cluster". By the looks of it you have too many teams for one game.

Either way, I'm interested in either representing a 2nd Canadian team, or perhaps a mixed US/CDN team. Whatever works best for the format.

Let me know.

RE: Nuniverse's Cup 2015 Call to recruit crews!!!! The winner...

@social+assassin: brings up a good point. What is the max (or optimum) number of teams? I assume there should be a cutoff for new players based on that alone.

As far as he being on a team other than Canadian, I know we have a American #4 (Dotman). Perhaps a NA combined team if they can pick up a third? Or if they pick up someone from somewhere else, a UN team? Heck... they could be the PWB (Players Without Borders) team. :)

It's getting crowded :) I already count something like 11 or 12 teams. Wow!

@Crystalct: Just an idea that came to my mind when @Mule asked about the max number of teams: If 12 teams is too much to fit in one game, maybe you could arrange the Cup to have 2 rounds of shorter games (60-80 turns each): a first round of 2 simultaneous games with 6 teams each, and a second round where the best 3 teams from both games make out who wins the Nuniverse's Cup 2015.
If no-one likes this idea, just forget I've ever mentioned it ;)

One other question: will this be a 'public game' so we earn campaign-resources?

I'm happy to play on an North American team, but since 2/3 of the team is US, let's just call it a US team. I just want to chant to Chant USA! USA! USA! during the 5 turn countdown.....

As for the structure, I'd prefer to not see an over crowded cluster, which allows for proper race development. So 5-6 teams max. It would seem two semi's and then a final will likely be necessary. This will likely mean this cup may not be awarded for some time. I love the idea where the top 3 teams from each side advance, although I'd lean to Min 80 turns over under 80.

My two cents.

RE: "So, it's no my fault... only 33 players (11 Teams) can be possible."

OK. What does that mean to us? Do we have 11 full teams? Are there still openings on any specific teams? Perhaps if we got a report by exception it might help us firm this thing up.
---
Something like:

9 full teams are confirmed.

team 10 needs 1 more.
team 11 needs 2 more.

That will make 11 teams and no additional teams can be allowed...
---

That said, if we actually had 11 (or more) teams, that seems pretty crowded to me. My preference would be two games (of 6-ish teams) and a playoff game to follow. But, I'll play it any way the host decides.

For last Team i will give precedence to South America Team with players
1) @Sudakan, 2) @H_ender, 3) @Zenpablo, 4) @Kraken and 5) @Ferscia, exactly in that order. They must reply positively to enter into South America Team. I will wait a bit them.
If there will not be 3 replies then we will check North America Team in a similar way.

i wouldnt mind hosting it, but im not sure i can host a game like that, still id like to play in a teams of 3, big universe against other players.. any ideas? help? support? interest? it may not be as prestigiuos as the cup, but it could be almost as much fun.. any takers? i know team uruguay is ready to go...

More thoughts on a role playing Planets game. Warning: Possible extreme idea.

In many games (most?) we wouldn't know if anyone was playing a role or not. Why not? Because they seldom talk publicly within the game.

What to do? Require all communications be public. Then we can all unleash our inner beasts. We threaten and demand publicly. We announce exactly what(and who's) ships and planets we destroy or liberate. Sure, this would have to be voluntary. But, if you knew sending a private message could brand you a cheater, who would you dare sending such a message to?

Extreme? Maybe. But, it would certainly be more fun. :)

@Iso--T, however, you should have joined yourself if you had wanted to ensure victory for Finland. I’ll try to use this game to teach myself a little less involved (and thus less time-consuming) way to play the game.

4) Enter password (hereiamx).
5) Select Race.

Just a heads up guys... We just put in a change so that games in the interest state will go ahead and start once they fill up (instead of everyone having to also go click interest).

The first (deleted) version of this cup now isn't visible anymore in my games-list, history and officer-page. Thanks to whoever fixed this!

Hello,

Since when is Catalonia a country ?. Catalonia now is an integral part of Spain , without having made a declaration of independence recognized by any country or international organization ( UN, EU, NOA , etc )

For this reason I can not understand here is treated as a country , I think it should be removed or not from here playing my request made official as the new country Carabanchel ( a district of Madrid).

Regards.

I would grant anyone the dignity of choosing their own allegiance, especially to one with such a storied culture and rich history.

But there is no need to incite conflict over this. We are not an international political organization, and our courtesy should offend no one -- no one who does not opt to take offense of their own free will.

(I do, of course, respect the right of anyone who wants to be offended to do so.)

Hello Haldirista.

Catalonia Team is just a team to play VGAP, maybe players are interested in discuss this, but this isn't the place.

Have fun.

Exactly as the last few notes say. We also have a Team Oceania and I can't seem to find that on the map either.

Let's TRY to keep our taunts lighthearted. Most of us come here for entertainment. The post that started this sub-thread isn't entertaining.

I'd be interested in participating if there is room left and a team will have me. I'm in Louisiana in the USA.
