Hey - turns out IRC is out and something a little more modern has taken it's place... A little thing called Discord!

yay i'm already busy recruiting New Zealand players
I just had an idea.
Is it possible to multiply all players ping and divide them to make an average so all plays with same f6 ping on a server etc?
Would save alot of endless discussions about fairness?
Couse we all are fair right?
Multiply and make an average?
You mean like the 56k players gets a lower ping, because the average from the dsl/cable players lowers their pings?
nah they won't because only a few people will have shit pings, majority will have low pings meaning the average will still be pretty low. There are two problems though ... the people with constant 30 pings atm aka Riv, TB, PR, Rookie are gonna get fooked on their f6 and also the practical problem of how the hell you give a 56k player a better ping.
all that idea would do is increase low ping players pings a fraction, which is a bit useless cos they're still gonna minirape you anyway.
