Re: Interest Check: New SMP Cooperative Server

Post by EpicAaron »

Two other friends of mine and I are always willing to jump into a new survival server. We would most likely spend many hours on it for the first few weeks if the rest of the player base is active enough. The current existing servers are a little stagnant at the moment, so a fresh experience is welcome!

starting on a new server would be cool - espacially since I wasn't able to be active on any servers or the forums for the last 4 months.
I'm really interested and hope you find some cool folks

So there's at least a little interest to get a new server going... Good enough for me.

I'll start a new thread (or repurpose this one) for whitelisting within couple of days once I get everything finalized on my end. I plan on including the latest version of Yhetti's DECO add-on so anyone looking to play here should install that client side. While your there in the add-on sub forum Grab Six's Better Items Frame Maps even if you don't intend to play on this server. It's simple and great.

Heck YEAH!

IGN: HappyDyas

Reason: I love BTW but haven't been able to play on a server as there was a lack of people and therefore it felt like i was playing single player. I look forward to building with people and watching their build styles at it may influence my own.

Time: im hoping to put around 50 hours a month as that should be a good number but with college starting up soon juggling that schedule will be interesting. however, as i love the mod i will be making time for that commitment!

Question, will there possibly be a TS server or a skype call hosted for the people that might want that?

If there's enough interest I'll set-up a TS server. Anyone else joining, please provide your thoughts on this. I hadn't given a Skype call much thought but again: If theres enough interest there, I'm open for it. Communication is a good thing as long as it adds to fun parts of coop but I dont want any of this to feel like a job. There's more than enough of that in my life currently :)

Why do you want to play here?: I enjoy building up civilization from the early game and hope to leave a larger mark with better builds on this server than previous servers.

How many hours a week you think you'll be playing on this lovely server?: Until classes start I'll likely be putting in about 10-15 hours a week into the server. Afterwards, I'll play mostly on the weekends.

Why: I love Better than Wolves, but also suck at it. I decided to try and play in the more forgiving world of MP(also, I suck at making aboveground bases, so you won't even notice I'm there unless you find my caves)

How much: probably not so much these first weeks of setember, but as soon as I get bored of Rogue Legacy I'll be playing almost every evening.

WHY: I had fun playing in other servers before. I've been playing single ATM, which is awesome but there is something missing. Maybe its time to revive the multiplayer experience again.

HOW MUCH TIME: 10 hours a week ( + or -). I might not be one of the most active players LOL (because of work and life with wife XD)

EpicAaron, RalphKastro, OlbaiD

You guys are in.Did any of you have an opinion on TeamSpeak? I've never used it but I'm inclined to set it up.

EDIT: Nevermind. Went ahead and set it up.

Why do you want to play here? - I always wanted to join a fresh world Better than Wolves server, something I never did before. I also enjoy playing with other players and showing them my builds. I also been wanting to join a server anyway, all the others are usually empty.
How many hours a week you think you'll be playing on this lovely server? Depends on how busy I am in the week. It could be 2 to even 20 hours. (More or less) But I doubt it will ever be 2 hours even on the busiest of weeks. (I'll play mostly on the weekends, but may be gone on some weekends.)

How many hours a week you think you'll be playing on this lovely server? hmm not sure, it'll fluctuate a lot depending on work schedule, and I'll be playing archeage when it drops in 2 weeks, but I'll probably pop on for at least an hour a day once the first week or so of archeage is done with :)

Myrkana, Happy to have you! I'll shoot you the details soon.

AddyBaha, I've tried to PM you but it appears to have PM receipt disabled. Give me a shout when you get that sorted and I'll send you all the details.

Everyone,

In the OP I said we would have a tentative start date of today but since I was unable to nail down an exact time I'm going to move that to September 3rd, 6pm US Central Time. With daylight saving in effect , I believe that is 5 hours behind GMT. The server is currently up and running so you can test your connection and speed. We start a fresh world for the grand opening. If the majority of you guys can't make it please let me know via post or PM. I'm on vacation/holiday this week so I can move it around to accommodate.

Hmmmm...
My end said you were booted because you weren't on the whitelist. I hadn't added you yet at that point but I also didn't have whitelisting enabled. Weird.

Give it another go. I'll keep an eye out.

EDIT: For what its worth, I figured out what went funky. Shouldn't be an issue going forward.

Mistery159, I'm going to whitelist you but judging from a recent post (unless you've upgraded/replaced your computer) I suspect you are going to have performance issues. I hope I am wrong. Also, good luck in your studies. I remember how demanding some of that can be.

AddyBaha,
I received your most recent PM. I still can't PM you. I think your inbox might be full. Try deleting some old messages. Once you've done that, let me know.

Sure, I'm fine with handling this over email. Go ahead and PM me and I'll email you what you need.

The PM button under your posts is missing and when I try to reply or add you to a new message I get the following message:
Some users couldn’t be added as they have disabled private message receipt.
I was only guessing when I mentioned that your inbox might be full.
You might want to try the going to clicking "User Control Panel" in the upper right of the forum pages one you are logged on. In the middle right of that page, select "Board preferences" then "» Edit global settings". The third option down is "Allow users to send you private messages:". Make sure that is set to "Yes"
