I looked at your signature to see who I missed and saw J-----, I look at the list and J----- is there, I :confused:
A few synapses fire and I realize that is not J-----'s information, avatar, so I :uhoh.
I don't recognise kilo2 as flying in KOTH but I check the list and no kilo2 listed so I :uhoh :uhoh
The flashing avatar actually gets my attention and I see CCCP , I check the list, just kidding :D
I see Sukov and check the list, I see I made a large booboo :headscratch: , I add Sukov to 2012 winners list and :pray that was the issue.
You post and say thanks and are now :banana:

Film for debrody warp:

and it happened again the next round - took my elevator off when he was infront of me, then bails :furious :mad:
-
relogged 3 times, router was reset, still was warping, alt+f4-ed instantly, what else i could do?
I am sorry, i can understand that youre upset and stuff, still, dang it, i have a button on my computer what i push every time youre behind me lol
just to talk about being paranoid.

Just one of those things :aok

Yep had some storms roll thru yesturday. Lightning thunder and some pretty heavy rain and wind. Knocked out power and cable lines up here y :saluteesurday....didn't come on till 3am. It sure did make for a miserable night with no fans cuz it was still hot and humid. My cellphone signal is spotty at my house too so my 3g was 1x and sometimes none existant. I'm just glad I could get a hold of fuzeman. Thanks again bossman!! I owe u once again!!

I thought you lived in Michigan? :lol maybe your on the west side of the state and got the storm we got last night.

I came over and watched Debrody v MickyD fight but got there late once. I did see warps which I did state on 101 and on at least one occasion saw a warp and then Debrody disappeared and was not in arena or online so I do not think he was warp-bailing. Either Alt-F4 as he stated or discoed. It wasn't as bad as other warps I've seen, although any warp is bad really, and it wasn't continual from my view. It did settle down and he flew without warp when I observed him so it was intermittent. It also seems he did everything on his end to help, rebooting router etc, but I believe he stated he uses wireless which might be an issue. HTC, KOTH Team can't regulate what equipment a person uses so that's a dead issue.
"I'm just glad I could get a hold of fuzeman." Well, that makes one of us :)
"i have a button on my computer what i push every time youre behind me" for the next event The KOTH Team requests you disable that button. :D

I am in michigan....northern central part. There was a line that came right over us. I had to close down my yard sale cuz we got dumped on so quickly and hard. We were rushing to get things in the garage. That was about 4:30ish. Then a second one came thru and we heard a loud crack of thunder so I'm suspecting that maybe a tree got hit or something by lightning. They moved in fast and left even more humidity behind then we originally had. Didn't surprise me we lost power though...we loose it if the wind blows cuz there are so many trees and consumers wont trim them away from the power lines.

back to the connection thing using wireless is no excuse for warping, it will never EVER be as solid as an ethernet connection.
Players who do frequently warp to it and then shrug their shoulders is bad form :old:
(not aimed at debrody just any technically challenged person)
-
So in short words get a better system or quit playing altogether? :rolleyes:

No, equipment has limitations and you should be prepared for the effects it has on you and others.
This is a topic with a huge gray zone. It could range from a person who warps once during an event to a person who is playing connect the dots.
Someplace between the two extremes above you have to draw a line and say fly or watch.
-
Adapt and over come.
-
But if someone is warping and you can't get a shot on them it hardly makes the fight fair for both players. I agree with fuzeman. If the fight isn't fair for everyone involved then something should be done. In my event if someone is warping really bad I will be forced to ground them. When they get their net status leveled back out then the can fly the next round but I will assure that my event is ran fairly for all involved.
-
Adapt and over come.
Sorry jo but as someone who does warp quite frequently. How can your opponent set up a move precisely when they lag out of plane then shoot from side on and put you in the tower. Just because they cannot be bothered to plug an ethernet cable in or close programs running in the background that use bandwidth.
This isn,t about pc power bone just internet connection.
-
What about someone like JoeBlack? Im sure he has a ethernet cable, as awell as programs in the back closed, however he is probably the worst 'warper' in the game. You cannot restrict someone from playing because they have internet problems like this, I know because, if netflix is on at my house I see everyone warp like joeblack if I try to fly. So Im quite sure it takes much patients on both ends as JoeBlack must see people warp quie frequently as well :headscratch: (this obviously goes for anyone who waprs not just JB)

This is the only way.

One could say the same about Pervs connection in TOC but nobody took that out of context.
Fuze are you saying that Pervert with his laggy connection shouldnt have flown in TOC?
Not trying to argue only trying to understand what you are getting at. :salute

My connection was fine at TOC I was on a cable connection for the event.
-
My point is if you guys are complaining about PC power and you think its so simple to get such a better connection then why have so many not done this yet?
The internet is not something you can control at all, I could have the best internet connection in the US and bet ya I would still be laggy from time to time.
Almost every fight with you seemed out of place during TOC and you even said you had warped once or twice during the fights with Grizz.
Not here to start any flaming or Trolling Just stating the obvious.

Theres one person you are having this discussion with in this thread bone you brought me into it, now you are trying to use me as a comparison as though I started the subject, me and Bruv are 2 different people.

True I don't think Bruv is disputing that if you re read what he wrote.

Give me some examples you are unhappy with? , yeah Grizz showed me the video and I do not dispute that in the 2nd round? I think? he seen a warp from me, but from my screen everything looked hunky dory to me. I had no problems with gunnery or in tracking anyone.

Quick Deflect from the thread. Very Classy.
This is not about you edit: I used the same type of situation that was played out in this situation if you felt it was directed at you then that is on you.
Back to the topic Fuze, In the end the decision is up to you CMs and anything you guys decide I will abide by as will the rest Im sure.
-
Bone...if someone is having an issue off and on that is on thing. But to have someone that their net status looks like a bad ekg report is another. It doesn't make the fights fair for all players in the event including yourself if your flying at the time. That is all Bruv is saying. We can't contol connections but we need to make sure events like KOTH are equally fair for everyone. I personally have 3 computers in my house. My kids are always on them. Each are plugged in to my cable modem. My son watches videos on netflix. My daughter plays on facebook and I have no lag issues. Again, keeping the event fair is what I strive to do so in my KOTH if someone as fuzeman put it is playing connect the dots then I will ground them until their net status levels out.

So if you don't want me to come in to a conversation just don't put my name up there. Lets not get to dramatic I did simply reply to a post that was about me didn't I?
-
I don't see it? Could you make it a little bigger please, thx
-
everyone at some point will have micro warps and of course you can't control the net but if the CM's and players see one particular player hop, skipping and jumping all over the sky then they need to be taken to task and the event hosts do that to the best of their abilities with everything else going on.
If you know you can't fix it then sit out and watch from the tower is all I'm saying. If I hear "oh storms are coming" how about getting your head down the shelter instead of flying one more round of KOTH and spoiling other peoples experiences.

Only the Strongest of Connections wins. :aok

Like I said Betty I will abide by all decisions you CMs make. :salute
-

no not at all do you actually read posts before replying to them Bone?
All I said in the my first post is that some people will be thinking they can run wireless or run several other bandwidth hogging programs and then wonder why they have a warp problem.
-

Like I said Perv dont be so paranoid to think I intended for you to come in here, I was using the same situation you and Grizz had to this original discussion.
You really shouldn't look to deep into words over the internet. :salute
-

All I said in the my first post is that some people will be thinking they can run wireless or run several other bandwidth hogging programs and then wonder why they have a warp problem.
Or perhaps he was simply saying having a better connection = better chance of winning, which I would agree with! :old:

I do read them and its like I said before not everyone has a great connection.
I am not sure how you would come up with Koth regulars doing this "run several other bandwidth hogging programs"
I understand what you lot are saying about the connection but Its just not something that I agree with but in my previous post as said I will abide by those rules set by the CMs.
Personally I dont like excluding ppl who enjoy the fun parts of AH even if they cant maintain a stable connection. :salute
-
Or perhaps he was simply saying having a better connection = better chance of winning, which I would agree with! :old:
No I actually Meant if you dont have a stable enough connection stay clear of Koth because it would be pointless to try its already been said if they cant maintain a stable connection they will Just have to watch.
Nothing out of the way Just more Blunt from me not the CMs.
-
I can agree with that, if I know netflix got turned on in the middle of a KOTH I will ask everyone/anyone I fight if im lagging/warping at all and bail if I am
-

Fuze are you saying that Pervert with his laggy connection shouldnt have flown in TOC?
Not trying to argue only trying to understand what you are getting at. :salute
No of course not, and to be honest I don't remember warping being an issue at the TOC.
I'm getting at this.
[1] It will be the CM's decision, and their decision alone, on the warpage threshold one has to cross to be grounded in KOTH.
- A grounded warper would be given a chance to improve the connection, relog, reset modem or router, etc, and continue later in the event.
When I hear about a warp, I try to get to the fight in CM Eye mode ASAP. Once there I try to see a warp and who it is. If both and my netstat is erratic, I say so and it usually settlers down soon. I usually hear about warps from room channel in tower or from a person fighting a warper. If they are flying connect the dots and its obvious they of course should end flight and if they don't would probably be grounded. If it's intermittent and not a problem, in the CMs discretion, they would be allowed to fly. It might be suggested to them to relog, etc, after being killed before the next round to see if it helps. The more complaints I hear of a warper the more evidence so to speak they are really doing it.
[2] Wireless products have a greater error rate than a hardwired cable and that can and at one time or another effect your stability. I have no experience but it seems logical there are things you can do to improve a wireless connection but again it will never come close to wire. You would expect a serious gamer would do everything possible to better thier connection. If they don't and they warp, they should expect not to fly. Better to spoil 1 person's fun than everyone else at an event.
[3] Even the best home wired connection has to go over the net and we all know that's 100% perfect and never has a problem loosing things. Right :rolleyes:
[4] Issue was dealt with when it happened and this is when you need the beating a deceased equine picture.
[5] Any problems or issues, PM me :)

Are you 2 that illiterate to not go back and look at the 2 posts by the 2 CMs who run the event.
I think so far me an a few TG members have spotted Coombz leaving out my last comment in that last quote.
Now go back reread and come back when something dont hit you. :aok
-
I only edited for clarity and to leave out the extraneous drivel, not to change the meaning of your posts :aok
Even leaving in the part about abiding by the CMs wishes, you still contradict yourself by first saying you don't like the idea of excluding people if they don't have a stable connection, and then saying that someone without a stable connection should sit out
You might have meant something different, but the way you wrote it is a bit :headscratch:
It's nice that your squad members are willing to try and help you out with difficult things like the English language though, but next time get them to do it before you post a load of nonsense and not afterwards (although if they had to do that i doubt they'd have time to fly any sorties :p )
