Topic: House Information

[Hexx]

This will be a point thread for info on the houses for KCW

UI's are as follows- As there are (imo) too many issues with the map
for using the pirate interface (namely repawn & resupply points)
we'll be going with Racial UI's for the moment.
These were chosen based off of random ('cept for the lyran one)
selection & your picks.
It should be noted that the further down the picks list that your UI was,
the more favourable your map setup will be.
In no way will it be dominate, but your resources will not be *quite*
as far apart.

(pvp)House of wIysuhl -Klingon
(ter)House of K'hnshy'a -ISC
(ter)House of HutDIch - Gorn
(pvp)House of D'emons -Lyran

(ter)House of S'uh'nih -Federation
(pvp)House of Hy'kull - Romulan
(pvp)House of K'hunt- Hydran
(pvp)House of Korgath -Kzin

Bounties

Every House may place one bounty on any pilot from another house
-the pilot having the bounty placed on him has the option to decline
 if he declines, the pilot no longer may challenge any other player (see: challenges)
 if he accepts he is bound by all the challenge and disengagement rules that his house is

If the House placing the bounty claims it by having one of their pilots be the first to defeat
the player all is good.
If another House kills the player first , the House placing the bounty gets no points, the hoiuse
doing the killing gets a bonus point, The original bounty is now transferred to the pilot who killed the
original bounty

ex- The KBF puts it's bounty on DH, unsurprisingly I kill him first.
      My House receives one bonus point, the KBF receives nothing, but the KBF
      now have a bounty on me.
      If the KBF kill me they recieve the bounty, if Dizzy kills me first <snicker> then the KBF now have a bounty on
      Dizzy

A player may have multiple bounties on themselves.
Any house that has players with unclaimed bounties on them at the end of the server
receives bonus points.

Bounties are awarded for kills in either PVP or Challenge matches.

Hexx, please make that more complicated. There is still a remote chance someone might actually understand it.

Bounties

Oh Dear God there's gonna be some bounties biatches.

Every House may nominate one (1) player to have a bounty on them.
This player may NOT be a member of the house placing the bounty.
(so no friendly fire points)
In the event that the bounty player is killed by another before your house can claim
him, the bounty (for a few less points) will be transferred to the
warrior who robbed you of your bounty.
Same thing happens if two houses have the same player nomianted for bounty

ie
DH is nominated by KBF & House 2
If he's killed by Sax , KBF gets X points, House 2
now has a bounty on Sax for X-1 points.
If he's killed by Dfly, Dfly's house gets nothing
And the KBF and House 2 both have a bounty on Dfly for
X-1 pts.

1) Bounties are claimed  for any kill, PVP or challenge
2) The Player nominated for a bounty may decline
   - A player who declines a bounty from one hosue may
   not accept a bounty from another house.
3) A Player who declines a bounty may not issue formal challenges.
    (though they may still accept)
4) A Player who accepts a bounty is still under the appropriate
    challenge/disengagement rules for their house.

Je ne comprends pas. Que dites-vous ?

[Braxton_RIP]

Hexx, please make that more complicated. There is still a remote chance someone might actually understand it.

Agreed.  I mean, I almost came close to actually figuring out to how to put a bounty on you, Hexx.

[Hexx]

Sorry all- my bad

Sometimes I forget when I post in this forum rather than the one about painting the little
plastic figures I have to dumb it way down..

I'll fix it up and repost later.

[Julin Eurthyr]

Am I seeing this right...

For example, House Kinshaya puts a bounty on Dizzy.
If a Kinshaya pilot killz Dizzy, we get all the points, and Dizzy's house now has a smaller bounty on his killer?
If anyone else kills Dizzy, they get a lesser amount of points, but Dizzy's house gets the free bounty against his killer?

And that bounties can be scored anytime, like challenges etc?

[762_XC]

Remember Hexx we are all flying Klingon. Big rule make brain hurt.

Besides I couldn't even understand that sober. What the hell am I going to do the other 90% of the time?

90% ? You're getting soft old man...



 

[Dfly]

Hey Hexx

Any chance of getting house of D'Emon to fly the Lyran interface and the house of Korgath(unused?) to fly Mirak?  Figure if the Hit and Run part is broken, shouldnt the AI get it?

[Riskyllama]

the AI wouldn't be affected by the interface would it?


....assuming korgath stays AI that is

Relive the glorious battle with Hexx's commando ship.

[Hexx]

First off- this is a mini rant
Second-it's not actually aimed at anyone specifically, it's aimed at everyone who
has sent me the PM's/emails belabouring points you don't seem to understand.
The best notes include the line (paraphrasing) that

"It's unfair for anyone to have to use a ship that can not H&R on a Klink server"

If you're one of the lucky people that sent me this
Congrats!
You're an <expletive deleted> idiot

The Mirak H&R isn't broken, you can't pause raids, that's it that's all, you can still launch them, you can still
launch mutilpe raids.
Oddly enough I'm willing to bet that 90% of the people who have complained about it in hte PM's I've
received don't even know HOW to pause H&R raids.
 

I'm also terribly amused by the notes who have said there's no way they could possibly use the Gorn interface, especailly
the PM's received from those people who I have game film of using Gorn BCS's + CV's.
I guess all of you manage to put up with it if it's possible to use insanely cheesy PF's and fighters, but otherwise
you simply can't stand it. (please note- I don't think I've had a single complaint from HutDIch )

In any event- to shut everyone up- I'll use the Mirak interface
Problem solved.

Everyone can now happily go back to being able to pause all those hundreds of H&R raids you use.

No more PM's or emails about them please.

Find something else to cry about.


Happy ?

Boy I wish there was some way I could actually statistically check to see how many of you use the pause button.

Find something ELSE to cry about?  OMFG!!!!  Hexx running around in My interface bringing utter disgrace upon the Holy Cyan!!!!!

Give me back my Kzinti colors you BASTARD!

P.S.  Lessons on being a Bastard Admin are over as I think you just graduated, you Bastich!!!!

BTW  For your statistical study, I don't use the pause button nor do any other of the KAT or KOTHi pilots when we are flying Kzin (except of course Green who was always a bit slow anyhow  ).

[Dizzy]

Have I sent you a PM about this? No. Why? Because I know you know that you know that I know I'm smart enough to know you are too. I dont put up with PM lobbyists. They can all go rot in hell afaic. Say it out in the open or hold you tongue, worm! Next time someone PM's me about a special interest back door deal and they dont offer money, I'll figure out a way to make their life miserable on my server. Bet your booties.

[Dizzy]

Hehe, well... even tho you may KNOW how, doesnt mean you will... Ask Dr. Azteca. Dont remember which server, but I was flying with the KBF as Klink vs him as a fed (MB SG4?) and for several missions back to back he kept pwning me. I couldnt beat him. Turns out after watching the films I noticed my marines were always beaming on his ship dropping my shields down and he just simply waited for those special shots I gave him. I think its the 1st time my ship was ever destroyed w/o ever losing a shield... Apparently I got the shade mixed up on ht e pause button... haha. Hasnt happened since.

[Braxton_RIP]

I still dont understand what the big deal about interfaces is...... all the buttons that do the same thing are located in the same place.... I mean, the Fed speed slider isnt in a different place from the Gorn one and the Rommy probe launch button is in the same place as the Klingon one.  Hell... most people probably use hotkeys anyway.

[FPF-DieHard]

House is K'hunt is happy with purple, as long as we are pink on the inside . . .

I want to use the Lyran interface - can you set me up?

Oh Dear God there's gonna be some bounties biatches.

Is there a revamped rules out yet?

[Dfly]

Just for everyone's info, since Hexx did not state it,  he did not receive a single PM from me about the interface.  My request was posted here and here only.

[FPF-SCM_TraceyG_XC]

My issue with the Kzin interface is the colours, has nothing to do with the H&R issue (didn't even know there was one until it was mentioned here).

And yes, I did PM Hexx about this, and got no reply other than what was stated here, which I will add was written in very poor taste. Nice going Hexx

Although not one of the people I was ranting about (see? all better now) I'd ask why you thought it necessary
to send me a PM concerning the Mirak UI "colors"
If you weren't going to be using them

MB let other people decide if they like the colors?
You know,like the House they were assigned to?

And BTW- before anyone gets the absolute wrong idea, I love PM's I do
_Any questions you have about the server, or any suggestions on how to improve something are welcome.

What's not really wanted are (as mentioned)
-PM's dealing with an issue that you don't understand (ie H&R issues)
-PM's on why C7's should be allowed for everyone
-PM's dealing with ANYTHING mentioned about Klingons from TNG/DS9/Whatver
(yes I've had two)
-PM's Dealing with why you dislike the colour of something

And as I think I'm done ranting for a bit , Tracey is forgiven( She's doing new missions, I'd forgive her pretty much anything),
 and Dfly did NOT send me a PM.-other than to say that whatver interface they were given was fine, and please don't give him the Lyran one.
Oh Yes, I'll be looking for someone's C7 on the server....

[Hexx]

I want to use the Lyran interface - can you set me up?

You have to go join those other Lyran Wannabe's
(so you should fit right in... )

....
ex- The KBF puts it's bounty on DH, unsurprisingly I kill him first.
      My House receives one bonus point, the KBF receives nothing, but the KBF
      now have a bounty on me.
      If the KBF kill me they recieve the bounty, if Dizzy kills me first <snicker> then the KBF now have a bounty on
      Dizzy
.....
Bounties are awarded for kills in either PVP or Challenge matches.

so bounties would or wouldn't be awarded if both me and TT winging each other beat you to DH?
or if I die and TT take's out DH's ship?

[Hexx]

I really need to start a thread entitled 'Why I hate all of you oh so much"

If you & TT were in the same house ,and that house had placed the bounty on DH
you'd get the points
If You & TT were in diffferent houses, whomever fires the killing shot gets the claim

So- if TT's house placed the bounty and he made the killing shot,all is good
     if you made the shot, your house scores a bonus point and TT's house
     now has a bounty on you.

I was just trying to make sure bounties won't expand exponentially if wings take down other ships. TT and I are in the same house btw. Although this does mean that kill cams might just come in handy.

[CaptJosh]

Assuming it's not beyond the realm of possibility, would someone please just figure out a way to let eveyone just use the Klingon Interface instead of complaining about all this, sniping back and forth, and otherwise bitching and moaning?

[KBF-Crim]

Unfortunatly Josh.....the game wont allow mutlple UI usage amongst the races...

And this is nothing compared to some of the more ...eh...livley...conversations we've had...

Besides....it's all hexx's fault...

[Hexx]

Bump

fraggin hosers

[TheJudge]

Um, so like if I run around the map and snipe everyone's bounty's away from them, is it possible to have like four other houses with bounties against me and what happens when one of them finally gets luck and kills me?


<Sorry Hexx, just had to do it!>

[Hexx]

I'm not really sure "gets lucky" is the right reference.. maybe
"goes to red alert" might be what you're looking for..

Bounties are being "simplified" and will be posted with most of the other rules later

I really just bumped this because I forgot what houses had been given what interfaces.
I really need a system tha can have like 6 screens at one time..

[Green]

I like these posts.
