Topic: When will KCW trading be concluded?

[FPF-Tobin Dax]

I am sure many of us are waiting to hear what glorious house we will have the honor of fighting for.

[Black]

Very good question ...

Now when can we get on with the glorious battles for the honour of our respective houses!

Let the blood begin to flow!!!

... or something like that ...   

Kapla!!

Captain Black
House of ? ? ? Special Forces

[SSCF-LeRoy]

Yeah, the suspense is killin' me here

[Dizzy]

When it's done you will know and not a minute before.

[FPF-Tobin Dax]

pout, pout! 

[Black]

Awwwww C'mon Dizzy! Tell us peleeeeeeze!!!!   

[madelf]

Yeah, the suspense is killin' me here

Suspense won't be the only thing.

[IAF Lyrkiller]

Dizzy, stop making it a big secret and post it...

[Hexx]

Don't worry guys

I got everyone I wanted on my team.

[Julin Eurthyr]

As has been posted prior to this point:

J'inn, and only our esteemed Polar Mirak, shall be the one posting final rosters, at the conclusion of the trade period.

As this is a here-to-now never done thing, certain snafus have been encountered, and are being overcome as we speak.  We expect the trading to continue apace, and be wrapping up within a couple of days or so.  At that point, J'inn will be sent final rosters for him to do his job.

I am checking the trade conversations every chance I get, and am sure my fellow house leaders are doing the same.  Due to scheduling and time-zone concerns, a full round of haggling can take the better part of 24 hours for the recipients to read, reply and counter-reply, and simple confirmations on proposals may take 8-10 hours.

We thank you for your patience, things definitely won't take this long when the server starts...

[SSCF-LeRoy]

I guess that all depends on what houses we end up in now doesn't it?

[[KBF]MuadDib]

looks like some trading has already begun...

and that's supposed to be of comfort?

I know Madelfin guy was very concerned

[madelf]

I was worried I'd have to kill you, and didn't want to have to wait a week to make a challenge.

In hopes of seeing future servers use a draft ... maybe next time the trading part of the idea can be dropped and just a straight draft done.

I guess, but what's the rush? The server ain't starting for a while yet.

I though Kroma was an XO for another team and wasn't available to you Hexx......

I agree with Jaws. Can't say I care for this idea of trading.

[FPF-Tobin Dax]

"I guess, but what's the rush? The server ain't starting for a while yet."

For those not involved making this all happen, finding out which house we are flying for is the only thing going on for us right now KCW-wise.  So the server doesn't start for awhile, if we knew who our "brothers" were, we could be practicing or plotting together if interested to pass the time. Throw us a scrap while we wait, we're hungry for something.

[KAT J'inn]

Hey House Leader type guys. . .  .


1) Please make sure Hooch approves of everything. It's his server.

2)  Just send me your final lists when you are done.  I'll then add on the late comers to each team randomly (seems easy)

3)  Please avoid making me do any work.  I find it distasteful.

Random ain't cool. How about we email you our second draft orders, you allocate per previous formula, and then send back to us, we can finish any additional trading and then post rosters.

Wouldn't time be an issue?  Look how long the first draft is taking from the closing to trade finishing.  Days of playing time lost on what may be crucially needed recruits for a fading house.  (Not predicting anything for House Kromzzy mind you ).

Should go much quiker this time. I have already sent Jinn House Dizaroma's pick order. If Tracey and Julin will do the same pronto, we should be able to have it all rapped up by tomorrow.

I agree with Jaws. Can't say I care for this idea of trading.

I'll second that agreement.  I personally think the drafting idea has been taken too far.  It does not reflect the sensibilities of some players that really don't want to have their team chosen for them.  A primary straight draft of the willing (ie. people that actually don't mind being drafted, NO TRADING PERIOD) and then just have an open server.  People that don't like the draft can then just pick the team line-up they like.

This is a discussion that I was saving for the post-mortem on KCW when we could compare player numbers from KCW with numbers from non-draft dynas like GW series. But, since KCW is slow to start up, I jumped in.

Again, that's just my personal 2 cents on the drafting idea and has no bearing on EEK mission pack involvement on the KCW server and I'll provide any techie support needed for the missions on KCW. You could use EEK missions for a closed to GFL members server and I would not care. 

BTW, did I mention we need more dynas with ISC in it. *snicker*

Ribbit, ribbit Baby.

Gone from dynaverse play and campaign development, for sure, which is what I said in the posts. Aint coding either and feel great about it. No pressure.

Basically, my primary game is SWG and hope to get into a weekly GZLeague match rthym, playing frog for starters.

Gone from OP, lock-stock-and-barrel?  That's pretty much impossible when EEK missions are being used.  There are always questions to answer, issues to explain on why this feature was done that way or not. Sometimes EEK features are over-looked that may help solve a dyna issue that comes up.  Oh yeah, once in a while a serious bug like dbl-fighter comes up that obviously needs repair.

What is this fetish with civil wars anyway?  ISC is more civilized, so there.

We just addict them ISC felines to 'nip and situation is well under control. BTW, Kzin/Lyrans want some free promo ultra-pure ISC brand 'Nip?

ISC is meant to pacify the known SFB universe. ISC, and their 'Nip addicted feline friends, takes over, errr "pacifies", the alpha/beta quadrants.   Has a nice ring to it.

We don't want that weak-arse basil you're passing off as 'nip, frog boy. Two puffs of the good stuff and your average ISC wanna-be is gonna be taking a snooze like the little $%#&* that he/she is.

Next thing you know, you'll be offering Bud Light to the Klinks.

You'll be surprised exactly how potent the ISC stuff is...

And we passed off Oreos to the Klinks, to great results around the CW5 era...

Isn't Lipton the leading brand of ISC nip?

Nothing wrong with Oreos......Now Bud Light, thats a different matter.
