Gobalopper Posted June 26, 2003 Author Share Posted June 26, 2003 The problem with that is people who are losing could just close the proxy program and avoid the loss.There is no WW ladder so I see no reason why you would be playing QM.

Navaros Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 There is no WW ladder so I see no reason why you would be playing QM.i play it for recreational purposes. because it is still the same system i had so much fun with on the real WOL Ladders, only now it is minus the Ladders. still random map, random player (unless only 2 people are in the QM system) and 6k Fog On, Pre On - that can be fun even without the WOL Ladders. Custom Games don't have the same "feel" or exhilaration as this.if you can't force both players to keep the program open, then i request that you make it so my particular WOL nick is never, ever on the fed2k ladder under any circumstances until such time as i consent to your rules, if ever.

zamboe Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Gob,as you asked I got a game made on qm setts did you get the report? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurlyPIG Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 I think going either 1 player or 2 player reports is good too, but we would have to actively monitor the game scores and look for suspicious results, because if only 1 person has the ladder and is going to lose they can disconnect and it looks as if the other one did. It's a shame that we can't just patch repatch where the game sends ladder reports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cybopache Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Hi all u Duners!I`M a semi rookie (played for 8-9 months) so I have not played the old ladder qm/bc games before , but has installed the XCL proxy thing and it did work on the first attempt(thanks to all of ure questions and answers).I have just played 3 games,2 of them too laaggyy,and the other I`M not sure what happend,but suddently the game said that I had quitted,but I did not,me and my partner was on a winning strike.One more thing;-what about spreading the word around to the online players that there are a ladder goin` on.Even if we are rookies, to get better we have to play against better players,right?I have tried to log in to qm but it fails every time,somebody know why?CyboI did get in contact with my partner,he hosted and said he did quit,how comes he win the game ?Cybo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Are only 1vs1 matches counted for the ladder? The 4 player games are in the list of match details, but I don't see the results in the ladder ranking itself... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mendelbop Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Are only 1vs1 matches counted for the ladder? The 4 player games are in the list of match details, but I don't see the results in the ladder ranking itself...only 1on1 games with 6000 money, 5 starting units and prebuilt on are counted.found one bug btw: Sometimes my ip is reported incorrectly as 0.0.xxx.xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted July 3, 2003 Author Share Posted July 3, 2003 That bug comes from WW's ladder too, some games just don't get the IP right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mendelbop Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 You seem to have somewhat recalculated points. care to show us the new formula? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mendelbop Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 See this thread, maybe he could help?http://www.dune2k.com/forum/?board=7;action=display;threadid=11005 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurlyPIG Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 I've noticed that there are many players (the majority actually) that are in negative point values. Is that intentional, or a part not worked out by the new points formula? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted July 8, 2003 Author Share Posted July 8, 2003 I'll be fixing it when I get home, there are still some problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mendelbop Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 Now the fed2k ladder doesn't seem to report any games at all. Triple checked it today. Can anyone confirm this? Xcc ladder seems to work still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gobalopper Posted July 20, 2003 Author Share Posted July 20, 2003 No you must have downloaded the wrong program... Try getting it again. And make sure you are running XCL_Proxy.exe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
