Title: More guest trouble
Post by: wilbur on January 12, 2006, 04:27:06 AM
so tonight, i wanted to play some cyber battles, me and slump and some other people were tryin to play....

but this guest had like 10 games open .... and i guess he had the maximum amount that u could have, so no one could make up a game.

the guests (im sure they were all the same person) was doing this for at least an hour, probably even more.

sooo yea... like i said- more guest trouble

I think someone is doing that because they want matlu to take guest away.

Gut was doing it the other night, and gut dont try denying it either cuz i know it was you..lol. But I agree the guest feature gets annoying from time to time..but why are you complaining about guests when thats how you got half your points wilbur? lol kind of a contradiction dontcha think..

It is not guest trouble. It can be (and should be) avoided by limiting maximum number of games, that a person from single computer (IP address) can create.

It is part of "tuning" the game and adapting it to "real life". Programmer simply cannot predict all such problems during development. Programmer has to wait till some demented idiot comes and discovers them.

I will fix it when I find a little time for it.

I didn't know either :) I introduced this constraint looong time ago, and so far there was no reason to extend it.

Well whoever was doing it while I was gone had a damn good idea. I wouldnt mind the guest feature being removed.

or me...

We could play the blame game forever, but it's not gonna help. Matlu can find out who it is anyway, from all Silencer's /reports.

what can i say, i'm curious as to who is lifeless enough to jump on 20 or so different guest accounts and block numerous games for 3+ hours. Oh by the way, we may never know who did it, most people have more than 1 computer in there house yah know.

Maybe, we shall see.

They would have had to stay active, so that they didn't get booted. I think it was probably more than one person.
