Hey. Asked Blitz is he able to play 2 days ago, but he couldn't. And then last night realised I destroyed my display port cable, by moving the case around. Tomorrow I'll be back on that pc and will try to find blitz for our game. Walrus, please let us know when can you play with possible winner. Since there's only 2 days left.

Didn't turn on pc for weeks, so i am sorry cause didn't reach out earlier. Although, no one reached out to me as well. So I guess we're all inactive.

Runaway contacted me, but I've been moving around a lot lately. Barely played any WA last few weeks. Will try to catch him in next 3 days, since I'm gonna be unavailable 5-6 days after this period

Well, sorry guys. Didn't mean to sound rude and surely didn't mean to troll anyone about their will to work/ability to earn money. Mea culpa! Really was unaware of situation in Brazil being that bad. Will not comment on this anymore.

But If you are serious I bet you had a boner indirectly calling others poor saying that you make enough money to equate such a purchase with buying 2 beers, rofl.

It's not about being poor or rich. It's about sacrificing a portion of a 1 day salary to buy a decent monitor for a game you poured thousands of hours into. I just find it silly that healthy grown up "can't" afford something like this. Second hand full hd monitor.. Yeah, I'm not exaggerating. There's probably people getting rid of them for free on some facebook market place in your area.

Anyway, aside the whole buying/not buying better monitor thing - it's like I make a post about banning Inter scheme because some people will surely have advantage playing it on 1024x768, while I'm using 1920x1080. Wouldn't you find that laughable?

Quote from: Mablak on July 27, 2024, 10:35 PMI have tried playing at 1080p and get constant screenlag, my computer is also pretty decent, i7 processor and a GEForce graphics card. Probably not many people have this problem, but yeah it's there.

Hmm, check your advanced settings. First thing I did when installing a game was to disable both vsyncs.
That was to get rid of an input lag while roping, jetting etc. Played with screen tearings for a long time, because of a 60hz refresh rate on my monitor (and the fact it was 20" monitor with a resolution of 1366x768, which I changed in nvidia control panel to get forced 1920x1080 in W:A)
It was afwul in so many ways, but didn't complain too much since I wanted to get used to Full HD resolution.

Few years back bought a 24", full hd, 144 hz monitor and it was a game changer. Couldn't believe 60 vs 144 is that much of a difference. We talked about this recently, you should get yourself one.

They're going quite cheap nowadays, compared to before. Probably can get one for 100$ and with a better IPS panel (mine is TN). Will never go back to 60hz again. Can't stand even moving mouse cursor on it, let alone play anything fast-paced.

You guys being serious now? It's not really advantage. Like everything, it takes time to get used to 1920x1080. Lot of people here tried and gave up. I can assure you. Took me few weeks, if not months as well.. Because everything feels slower and you're really at disadvantage in most of the other schemes, because someone on lower resolution will see pixels on the map lot easier than us who play at full hd. Only "advantage" of this resolution is that you'll see more of the map when flying down with worm in a big rr labyrinth. And you seriously proposing to remove this scheme because you don't wanna try bigger resolution? Or even worse reason - you don't wanna buy a monitor?

Even if you're that cheap that you won't buy a full hd monitor in 2024. (pretty sure you can get one for the price of 2 beers), you can get 1920x1080 resolution even on the smaller res monitors. With nvidia control panel or, probably, lot more free programs.

Can't believe these posts even exists.

Didn't even play it yet, but just gonna leave a comment apriori - thank you and keep them coming! All your maps are awesome.

EDIT: did it... Took me 614 seconds haha. Did more sightseeing than roping. "Runaway, just collect samples" and that Komo part made me laugh! Really cool map.

Knew this thread seemed familiar. Just realised I made it. Thanks for reviving Skunk3. It's hard to find a game that will suit our needs and timezones. That's why I still think us few,from community, should find a poker game that's available for Europe and US. As of recently, pretty sure croatian government decided to ban PokerStars.. If any of you have a good poker site where private rooms are an option, let's do a few!?

Awesome! What a way to start the day. MI, you're a maniac!

Hohoo first game reported! Peasants!!! <3

This is just a funner for me and mostly to stream it.

Are you making excuses for possible losses before cup even started? Haha
At least you sound more like yourself than few weeks ago. I hope hospital is helping, get well man.

I couldn't get Great Snooper fixed at all. Just couldn't. Ever since 2.0 version there were only problems. 2.2 wouldn't work at all.

Friend then sent me 1.5 (or something like that) and it works flawlessly. So if you don't fix it, give me a ring. I'll zip it and send your way

You guys should download the right scheme. This one still have random mines, no sudden death etc..

I'll teach you how to achieve that the same way I do

Thank you very much Komo, but I'll be refusing your offer and continue doing things my way. Though, I'm sure plenty of community members will be thrilled to learn from the master himself.

IF we did change anything, and when we do merge and make 1 ladder for 1 scheme - can we recalculate all the ratings and add in all the historical games to the new system?

Should we really touch history? Isn't it better to keep those history as an "era" and reset everything with the new system? Some players really worked for their statistic in the past, I don't think it would be fair to recalculate.

Agree. I personally decided to grind few schemes over the years and it would feel quite pointless to see all of that league work gone. Statistics are part of this site, part of the W:A history and this really shouldn't be touched. Lot more ppl accomplished lot more stuff, no reason to take this work away from anyone.

Match Making
I haven't done it because I was busy with the initial part of the update. So it can go however we want. My idea is to keep it simple like modern games: only one click to start searching for opponent. So the base search will look for opponents who are looking for default settings which is preset/main schemes. For players who insist of playing specific schemes, we could add some options. I'd like to encourage players to let the system pick the scheme/map for them so probably the system will reward more points if players let it to decide scheme/map for them.

Sounds great, sounds modern... Do it MI!


Thank you for keeping everything alive and all of us still interested! <3

Less than 2 days back and reporting free wins already. Haha.. Notching warrior Ren!!

Pretty sure MI and TUS aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
