People Eaters forming

Post by Lucifer »

Ok, I thought we'd see what neato things we could do with the new team stuff joda's got going. So I'm forming a team for casual play and competition play, called People Eaters.

To join the team:

1. I have to like you. You don't have to be good, you just have to be someone I like having on my team in general. I'll be pretty choosy here, but it's probably not a big deal since I like msot of the people playing right now anyway.

2. You have to be willing to be purple. In fact, the more effiminate the purple you choose, the better. Clearly I won't be accepting anybody who's homophobic, but you already knew that if you're still reading.

3. You have to run 0.3.0 or higher, otherwise you can't use the new team stuff anyway.

You don't have to always be purple, but when you're the head of the team (so it's named after you) on a server that's configured to use the team stuff, you need to change to a purple color. It's the team's color! :) Of course, if you're the head of the team and you don't want to be purple, you should change your team name to something else and play as that.

Finally, whenever there are 2 or more of us on a team server, we should join the same team. It would be nice if the server took team name into account when it assigned people to teams, I don't know if it does. Does it? Anybody know?

As a result of picking a color nobody else has when playing on Sumo, I'm purple right now :) I won't be using 0.3.0 until polishing 0.2.8 is finished, though, and on most days, my play sucks.

There is /teamname, so I think 0.3.0 shouldn't be a requirement anyway :) I'd join if you let me in.

No, I don't think players with the same teamname are put together right now. This would have to be optional, as it messes with the team balancing; you either have to accept unbalanced teams, or some players with a different/no team name set have to be forced to switch teams.
