And if you have a Firefox release with a nice little memory leak that uses up, say, 1,9GB of your RAM, what do you end up with?

Although, that is unlikely. Dub, please give some specific information about what hardware you use so we can help you.

If you have an nVIDIA graphic driver, try this:


  • 1. Open your nVIDIA Control Panel, you can reach that from your desktop by right clicking on it, or from the tray icons, or from your Windows Control Panel.
  • 2. On the left side, you should see a small menu saying "Select a Task..." at the top. Under "3D Settings", click on "Manage 3D settings".
  • 3. Now on the right side, you should see two tabs, click on "Program Settings".
  • 4. Here, first tick the checkbox that says "Show only programs found on this computer". Then click on the button that says "Add" and browse your wa.exe.
  • 5. Now, if you have selected in the dropdown menu, there should be some options below. Find "Vertical sync" and turn it off.

No guarantee that this works.

I only do that when i'm certain I had the game. This game I controlled the crates zone, I had arrows and holy that easily kill off his two other worms if he tried to face me.. obviously it's T17 and anything is possible, but well I don't think it's fair to just restart
Of course I know that, you should know that I respect you very much, I'm just saying that I think that is the best sportsmanship one could do, although, you can also leave it to the moderators to decide, based on the state of the game at the moment of the crash.

Quote from: Almog on June 02, 2012, 02:53 PMSecondly, why isnt there such a rule for such situations? If it's like that, then next time i'm losing I'll just crash like him and start over, thats what TUS supports?
I know you wouldn't do that. :) And as I mentioned, I think it's just the best sportsmanship one could do. There is no such rule for a reason, because people would take advantage of that like the way you said.

Quote from: Almog on June 02, 2012, 02:53 PMThirdly, few months ago I played him in t17 (I think it was phanton), and he was leading 3v1 etc and reported, I complained and you (I think it was you ray, or monkeyisland, either of you) gave him the win
Yes, because the moderators decide the way I mentioned it above in such situations, simply because there is no better way.

Quote from: Almog on June 02, 2012, 02:53 PMas for the shopper, it's still there..
I guess as soon as MonkeyIsland gets online, it's going to be deleted. ;)

Bare in mind, I am not a moderator, I'm just bouncing ideas off the wall and sharing my opinion either noone cares about or everyone bashes. You know, just having some fun... ;D

(Watch people's reaction, it's going to be funny.)

I don't know if there is a rule like that or not, personally, I think if there is a drop, you should start the game over, without any advantage. Yes, it might not be too good for the player that was leading, but it is just not fair for the other side either, imagine, especially in Team17, you have 2 worms but you have Freeze, Scales of Justice and 3 Patsy's Magic Bullets, let's start over with 2 versus 4? I don't think so. :)

You should have just started this game over...

As for the Shopper, well... reporting that is just silly.

like I said, not my fault...
It's not about whose fault a lagout is, although, tendency is that you lag out more often than other people, so if I were you I wouldn't start chasing scapegoats to blame...

Still, about the Shopper, I don't think you can report a Free Win just like that, your opponent was online, he was right there, but you refused to play with him because you were upset about the Team17.

I would actually declare both games void, ask you to shake hands and play both games from the start, don't think you can do anything better than that. :)

I am sorry Kaleu, but this one actually made me crack up. :D Not that it's true, because I am interested in it, but it was just funny.

First post from Chelsea that didn't actually make me clench my fists. ;D

This tournament was a total mess, I'm seriously considering some consequences to people who did not show up for their games after they signed up.

Also, it is very clearly said in the description that only sign up if you don't abandon the tournament, unless something comes up. But yea, sign up if you know that you are going to have the time, going to be in the mood to play your games.

Banned for the next tournament for not showing up:


  • Mega`Adnan
  • huskov
  • Worm_Gamer

This is only for the next tournament, after that, you can join.

NAiL, I didn't name this topic, I didn't even create it, I was just saying stuff in another topic and it got split with this title.

Ray, imo, whats happening here is a case of "we're getting older". By that I dont mean grumpy (not only grumpy at least :P) but also more mature and intolerant of trolling behaviour.

The reason you see it "getting worse" is because when you started worms and even entered TUS with everyone, you were still years younger than now, and when talking about someone entering their 20's, every year brings huge differences and changes.

Drama is the only means a teenager has in order to solve issues, in the same way that a baby cries, since they have not yet learned other ways of dealing with things (ofc there are those who are simply that stupid but those are mostly exceptions :).

Bottomline, ppl grow up and things change, you'll become more intolerant of this behaviour but you can learn to overlook it knowing that most of the ppl who cause mess now will later grow out of bad habbits.

Then again, I -or anyone for that matter- cannot make you tolerant/understanding, and you dont have to be either, but I think having the things I mentioned in mind helps.
Yes, I think you are absolutely true, I noticed I have a very low tolerance level to stupid shit (George Carlin). :) I can just hope it's going to get better.

Although, I still think that what HHC was talking about in his topic is indeed an issue, that newcomers don't play the classic schemes anymore.

I understand what he says, I don't understand what he means. What have I ever done to weaken the popularity of the classic schemes for example? Or did I ever encourage the kind of talk you are doing?

Well, werent you already warned and accused of being who you are numerous times? That should be obvious by now. I dont want to go into details and judge you in public, if you fail to notice it by yourself then i cant help it but leave it.

QuoteStop with your hostile tone, I really thought you were better than this.

See, you just dug me from under the rock after all that time.

I dont even want to bring yet another elite mapmaking discussion here and how it affects the quality of Worms, for that i kill when i meet real chance, coz its a impossible fight on internets since so many people are brainwashed already.

I know that was harsh.
You don't make any sense and you talk into the air. Say what you want to say instead of acting all mysteriously. I have no freaking idea what you mean by anything you mentioned.

Funny how I lit a flame simply after saying some people are damn stupid and childish. :o This just started from this Chelsea - harpy stuff.


maybe because some people here are mega mature and their knowledge is simply amazing, u know who im talking about...

anyway i understood lacoste`s post in 100 %, it was very clever and well thought, what he said

if u cant understand what he said, maybe thats the problem, try to think more complex, with couple points of view in same moment, its not really that hard (maybe for ropa)

Balance it out and stop going after the good guys.

And yes, WormNET is becoming nastier every day and on some level, I think you might be involved in that, because you allowed everything unprofessional on your site.

Thats more or less a point, but what makes you think that you are an example of a good guy that didnt push anything for worse on today's WA? Im not saying you are the source of all evil, but droplet carves rock.
I don't really understand what you mean by that to be honest. :o

See what I mean? Almost two posts in a row making sense but theredi got one in between.

hahaha u are so pathetic ;D no worries ur lame acting wont provoke me never again, try better little boy

u are actually one of the best example why we have so many problems here,

incredibly stupid hypocrites like u, who know shit but they act like they know everything, thats our problem here.
This is very much needed here, thank you for posting.

I think some of you misunderstood me and/or my intentions, I was thinking more like HHC's topic for example, this degeneration of people around this community, don't tell me you haven't noticed that?

Yes, most of those people are pretty young. But don't tell me either that by showing them what the good ways are, we couldn't balance this out a little bit. I don't have examples at the moment, but... I'd do stuff differently. And no, I wouldn't ban people before you start saying I'm the new Kiros.
