Am I the only one that can't find the leaderboard?
Also, another random question: in the "ActiveGames" menu, does anyone know what "MaxBuy" means? I haven't been able to figure it out...
Yes. Certainly don't want to give the impression that I don't think there are reasons that are above my head as to why things might be the way they are. But I give my criticism like I take it: straight. But it was certainly meant to be constructive! I've clearly been spoiled by the before times.
For the old hands, is it just me, or are the new game mechanics woefully clunky? I wasn't sure I should take the time to play this game assuming the old mechanics, but these new mechanics seem insanely inefficient. No drag-and-drop functionality, no way to undo moves in a territory without undoing all moves, no way to reset the map/undo all moves, and much more. Also, does the map seem very blurry to anyone else?
phantom !!!! Does this game even work anymore? Seems from you that it does. I'll try to come back and look, but if you want to try something up and feel like it, feel free to email me at jojowilhelm@protonmail.com. Hope all is well with you!
Quite a shame really thinking back to the community and games we had all those years ago. Not sure why it ever had to change...
mateusz! Glad to hear you finished graduate and post grad training. Very cool. In what field? If you got post grad training, I'm assuming you have a job, which is more than many grads can say. I finished law school and started a job in "Big Law" a couple of months ago. I'm working in NYC and living just outside, but I hope to get out and start homesteading or something before the collapse.
Alright, guys, I'm sorta thinking about somehow resurrecting or replicating the old site. Of course I would never want to illegally use any intellectual property, but ... just for fun, what were the old stats of the units (attack/defend)?
infantry: .3/.3)
tank: (.5/.3)
jet: (.3/.5)
bomber: (.6/.15)
destroyer: (.75)
sub: (.3)
transport: (.15)
Lots of guesses there. It's been too long. Anyone got any screen shots of the old map set ups by chance? Email me at jojowilhelm@protonmail.com if anyone wants to get in touch just to reminisce or try to figure out some details about the old game.
Two years later (law school intervened) Jojo is checking and agreeing whole heartedly with Phantom. Also, hi SPHINX!
This was such a great game and community, at least at the old website. What a treasure that was lost.
Wow, mateusz and LYR, long time no see! Just thought of this game recently and thought I'd check it out. Before even coming back, I was wondering why on earth the old website isn't still up and why it ever changed. That game was awesome, as was the community (in spite of a little drama here and there that naturally flared up, especially among people like the younger, dumber me). Miss you guys and the old game!
I'm seeing old messages from like 10 months ago. In response to one from LYR, I wrote how sad it is that this game just died. The old website (which to me, at least, was perfectly sufficient and even simpler -- and simple is good!) was alive and well, but this one just never made it off the ground. Pretty sad
Jacob, still here I see! And I remember SPHINX, too. Just logged in to see if this site is still up. Was showing my nephew some super basic risk game and was reminded of this. How is everyone? Where is everyone? Is anyone still here (I haven't looked yet). Merry Christmas!
phantom's still here apparently, and ingoodguys according to him, so I'm gonna start playin again, too. Been way too long!
I'm guessing phantom let GameAdmin know, but he told me he hasn't been able to post on the new system, just chat.
Hey guys, I'm not even sure who's around here anymore. I'd like to get back on and play at some point. No snark here: is this site still alive? Any holdovers from the old site?
Anyway, I came back on to post this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgPoGAOxW3Q. About 1 min 30 sec in...is that OUR mateusz?
