I knew someone would comment on my floor color :). It's not yellow, it's a brownish orange. What I don't understand is how some people play with a black floor, you can't see the blue tails properly ;).

In all seriousness though, I guess the colors look a bit different depending on your screen.
winner of: Spoon, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 11th, 18th, 19th, 33rd, 34th and 48th Ladle.

/me agrees.
Bright floors ftw :)

Although I'd gone mad with that orange :P

I prefer to play with a black floor, no grid, and I don't have trouble seeing the blue tails, etc.

Anyway before we go into a tangent, there was a problem with one of the servers we were playing on: The Server Pharm NY had the habit of kicking a large fraction of the people playing about three times in an hour. Dont know if you already heard about it/take a look at it gene?

i didn't know about it. I did already plan to update the server binary. That might do the trick. Thanks for the report. I will make it my first priority.

My deepest apologies for the problems with my TheServerPharm NY ladle server. I have built a new server binary for it. Also, I have renamed it "Wild West =Fortress Practice Server=" and will be using it to run Wild West Fortress team practices as a way of testing it, so that I can ensure that it functions properly for the next Ladle.
