Ok sine, I started this thread about The Server Pharm BACK TO THE ORIGINAL TOPIC (Armagetron is just a game I love to play) I will be starting a new thread in this forum about The Server Pharm. Initial testing of the VPS that I have purchased from Luke-Jr. have been very encouraging! He was offering...

Sorry for the double post but I realized I should probably say more. First to answer sine...I think she was referring to posting in the wiki...not here. When I say "its up to me" I am merely saying that I am the one that is willingly taking on the responsibility to post...by the way not he...

THE SERVER PHARM IS BACK! I still want to do more testing before the ladle server gets used in the next ladle, but here are some details. Luke-Jr. like many others had just started to offer a vps offering based in Georgia, US. This is really less than ideal to serve gamers in Europe and the United S...

I'll put my two cents in. I like random. Everyone is just as likely to have an easy or hard match the first round. I like the fact that when ur done with the ladle ur done. It is a monthly tourney, and a big one. When it gets bigger, it might become a necessity to do seeding, to give newer teams a c...

Just to give the community at large a little bit more of an explanation of how this got of track. Destiny, who hosts these tournaments, explained to me in our private clan forums what happened originally. Apparently, when she started to do these tourneys, she did post about them. However, some folks...

no, read the wiki, it refers to two styles of sweeping. I have seen both used, especially by crazy tronners. Style #1 sweeper goes all the way to back wall and seals with a triple bind back Style #2 Sweepers encircle the def while def sets up one from the front, one from the back Not xenophobia. BTW...

Thanks for sharing the script ed...I have filed it away for future use.
I am learning PHP. P4 has sent me some examples from the CT servers, and I have been taking tutorials online.

Thanks sine, as I am writing and teaching tactics, i.e. the basics, I am trying to create a full basic set to post on the wiki. I really think its sad that there are no basic team tactics posted on the wiki. Its not like the basic tactics are some secret or something, I think nobody has taken the ti...

The Server Pharm

Testing in my ladle server and my Wild West Practice server have revealed a flaw in either the setup of my VPS or the setup of my binary or config files. So, for the sake of stable ladle servers, I have removed my server from the list on the Wiki and taken it down for now. Once I have a good stable ...

unique freeze up observed in wild west ctf server

on several occasions i have seen players cycles become frozen after they had executed a very long series of very tight double binds. Finally the other night I was playing with ~R~ Hype. He has a def where he forms a very small box around the flag that is built entirely of extremely tight double bind...

Yes you can use my server...but not the one that you have seen. I decided to setup my own vps, since i am tired of paying $22 per month for one server. It is the same vps provider that Durka is using. I will have a server up within 24 hours of this post. Look for The Server Pharm:Ladle Fortress Serv...
