What time of the day/night will the server go online?

Hooch has not responded to PM. Rules as on the site. Server will run 4 weeks.

Don't tell me this is the first you've heard of this:

Seen them all, but nowhere there do I see Hooch telling us when he planned to launch his server. Nor did I see anything in the dev forum saying as much.

Quote

The test server has been up for over two weeks. (now down, configured to start...)

House leaders have not yet confirmed their availability - other than Julin (Dizzy and you have been aware(?) but silent and Tracey has not responded to e-mail...)

Aware of what? That Hooch is backing out? That this is to be how the KCW is now run? Am I missing something? Is this just supposed to be a shakeout or is it the real run of KCW? The rules still had some fairly significant issues.

I have only been silent because no one has asked me anything. It was my understanding that this was still Hooch's baby, so I had been waiting like everyone else to hear what's up and when he intended to start.

There was a three way trade on the table awaiting Tracey/ShadowSixs approval, but they both dropped off the face of the earth, so it was never finalized. I figured that once Tracey and Hooch's RL issues got cleared up it would work itself out.

I have no problem starting this as is, but would want to know that Hooch is cool with us just running with his baby first.

Cool man if that's how you feel, then I definitely do not want to step on any toes here. I just want to help out. (got er all tested and ready, can pack to go...) I'll put er on hold till we hear from Hooch. He's had it rough enough lately and I wouldn't want to steal his baby to top it all off... so lets wait so he can have some good KCW fun to cheer him up when he gets back! You're right, we'll wait.

Chuut and Soreyes would love it if someone showed up to oppose their rampage all over the SFB-OP map... lol, we're having fun on there for now anyway, and if something else comes along too, cool!

I'd agree with Kroma
As much as I'd like to see KCW go forward, it was Hooch's idea and I think we should leave it
until he can run it or at least signs off on us running it.

In the mean time, as I think was mentioned- Bonks got a great server up, only thing it's missing is a backgorund story and some people.

Yeah right, Hexx! You're just hoping you or Maverick get traded so you don't get Death by Teammate at every corner!

Hexx · « **Reply #25 on:** October 28, 2004, 08:29:12 pm »

LOL somehow I think I'm getting "Death By T-something" anyway...

Bonk, please don't take my comments above the wrong way, I appreciate all the effort you have put into KCW. You have been the driving factor for sure. And my questions above on rereading them myself, sounded a bit leading, but I didn't mean them to be. I was really wondering, as I thought maybe I missed something, and that maybe you had all been arranging the start without me ;-) I thought I had vaguely recalled Hooch saying he was going to wait until mid late Nov to start due to Tracey's schedule, but that could have been all my imagination.

Has anyone even heard from Hoochimp lately? Hope everything is alright with him, and his family.

Bonk · « **Reply #27 on:** October 28, 2004, 09:14:34 pm »

No worries Kroma, your post just made it crystallise for me... we really should wait to hear from Hooch before we go ahead, or just save it for when he gets back and work on it some more in the meantime.

Julin Eurthyr · « **Reply #28 on:** October 28, 2004, 09:20:44 pm »

I'm still poking around, for the record...

If we were to hear from our 3rd house leader, we could start resolving open issues and finally getting this thing ready for prime-time...

Wasn't she supposed to be done with exams by now???

FPF-DieHard · « **Reply #29 on:** October 28, 2004, 09:25:52 pm »

Um, WTF is goin on?

I spend one day away from a PC and all hell breaks loose. I should have known better than attempt to pretend to have a life.

Capt_Bearslayer_XC · « **Reply #30 on:** October 28, 2004, 09:36:03 pm »

WHEW!!!! I am NOT on Hexx's team.

Tracey, if you trade me to his team... I will challenge you every day until I die here in mundania!!!!

Everythin's fine. Infact he's gotten into the EVE groove with the rest of the fleet and has been there quite a bit.

Bonk,

I think you could call it a "KCW Test Server" until the real server happens and no one would complain ...

Could be fun ...

Gee Wiz you mentioned this and the Roms Show up with there DNs and CVs

I belive it would be only right to get with Hooch before you take his work from him and do as you wish with it.
This is not right not right at all. It's like what happen over the OP list.
It is time to do the right thing and get with Hooch.
If you need to talk to him you can find him on the Teamspeak server at times.
Or you can find myshelf or Lister as well and we can get with him.

Definitely, I already decided to put it off till we hear from the ol Hoochster. (see above) Let me know if you'd like me to put the test server up for more work/play...

Also, please note that I am not trying "take his work from him and do as you wish with it", if you really feel that way, I'll have nothing to do with it anymore. I'll only do the installer as requested (if still desired) and will stop missions testing and server configurations and map edits. I consulted the community at every step. What you suggest is the furthest from the truth. I put up SFB-OP on 12 hours notice just to prove that, and a number of people love it!

P.S. PM'd Hooch about this (as noted above) and have been posting on the KCWDev for weeks now...

The more I think about these comments, the more pissed I get... I'm definitely done with KCW. I'll stop using your teamspeak server as of now.

Is the right thing taking up a leadership role that had been abandoned and put in a lot of harwork like Bonk has done?

There has been NOTHING posted in the KCW forums for weeks. This server was dead before Bonk brought it back to life.

Inertia not in motion dies.

KBF-Kurok · « **Reply #38 on:** October 29, 2004, 09:38:51 am »

he obviously didnt read the other posts Bonk.KCW I think is as ready as it will ever be except for the house leaders. As far as any thing else go with it or not.I honestly am tired of waiting for it and am losing intrest in it.
just my $.02.

This is blanently incorrect. There is only 1 house leader not ready due to RL. The main issue has been no Hooch.

And Day take a breathe and read the whole thread before spouting off next time. While the server was Hooch's baby and I have stated that we should wait for word from him first myself, a lot of other people put time into it, and Bonk is without a doubt the one that did the most. So I can hardly fault him for stepping up and trying to keep it from dying for lack of leadership.
