Re: Name suggestions for the BA remake

If we have to use as an acronym BAR then how about:

Bluestone's aggressive reaction

This deals with the situation where someone behaves like a jerk in the game and Bluestone bans them. :-)

A comment on balance

I have a suggestion about balance. I'm sure it has been mooted before so forgive me in advance if I am repeating something that has already been discussed ad nauseum. One part of balance is ensuring that both teams are relatively even in their overall abilities. Obviously we already have tools that ...

Re: Nuclear explosions need moar realism

Let me understand this: it is suggested that there should be "moar realism" in a game about large intelligent warlike fictional robots who, for reasons unclear, are fighting other large intelligent warlike fictional robots, on fictional planets, as played by grown men, some of whom appear ...

Re: Anti misses

On a similar note, Bluestone, I have ingeniously hidden a nail in a haystack. The haystack is not a proper haystack with the nail in it. Please can you remove the nail? Just to create a harder challenge, I won't tell you where the haystack actually is and I have made the nail out of plastic so that ...

Re: More on awards

More death messages:

Player [ ] didn't want to play this silly game anyway.

Player [ ] blames all his teammates, compendiously, for everything from and including original sin.

Player [ ] should not consider this death but instead a severe test of his bonhomie and lively sense of humour.

T1 gunships ... er ??

So in BA we have T1 gunships. However, I can't think of the last time I actually made any or saw any decent player (by which I define as: a player materially better than me) make any. They are basically otiose. In saying that I also take into account that sometimes - just sometimes - they get deploy...

4. Mental age of a 13 year old boy award For the person who draws the most penises (peni? what is the plural?) on a map. I really think we should have such an award if we are going to have such awards because we do want it recognised that this kind of thing is puerile. 5. World's worst techer award ...

More on awards

I have a few ideas for further BA community specific awards. They are as follows: 1. Bobbel award This award should be given to the player who made the most HLTs in any game. 2. Xanax award This award to be given to any player who killed Xanax. Obviously it is quite difficult to work out who precise...

Is RZBX in fact a very skilfully coded bot?

I've been wondering this question for a few days and I wanted to throw it open to the community for general comments. Why do I think RZBX could be, in fact, a skilfully coded bot? There are a number of reasons. 1. Everytime this entity appears, *exactly* the same thing happens. The entity invariably...

Re: Balanced Annihilation 7.6alpha2

The changes to the Juno look interesting. I've never built one to date as I don't really see what use it has. So I like the suggested changes. One idea that someone suggested during a game the other day, which is kind of a crazy idea but maybe amusing, is that the Juno, wherever it fired, would crea...

Re: Rocko cost 20% more compared to Storm , Why ?

I'm feeling very impish today so I was wondering whether I'd get away with observing that the most unbalanced thing on BA is the egos of some of the players. Some players have ENORMOUS egos. Others, not so large egos. Hence why certain people get very angry very quickly and then rage quit.

How about we indulge in some rudeness for oldtimers.

Re: Rudeness for newcomers

@Epicentre Yes, I was spectating in that game and you may recall I made a couple of consoling remarks to you. My recommendation is to ignore the rudeness. As it happens the other player who was being rude to you wasn't playing much better than you so don't take it to heart. The remarks made reflect ...
