just seen this thread
umm...randy and I were playing speed metal and had been playing for ~30 minutes and was sending wave after wave of tanks into my heavy turret positions (they all had ~5exp and 10k or so of health), after a cpl of nukes i desynced and the rest of the nukes took out around half the turret positions- i dont know if he should get the title, personally i think a rematch is fair.
i dont fancy watching the replay though, its too god damn laggy.

I apologize for not having desync rules committed to the title. I don't think a king title has come up with this issue before...

We've agreed to a rematch.

Wait a second.
You were playing EE on Speedmetal?
I take back everything I've said or thought, neither of you deserve the title.

for the love of all that is holy.. don't play EE on speedmetal.. it is SO pointless...
Since energy is so easily created in EE all speedmetal is, is a spamfest... (more so than AA/XTA...)
*sigh* its not like anyone of us can stop you though.

I hereby move for KoEE matches to henceforth be required to take place on non-metal maps.
Or at least non-Speemetalesque maps.

It was only my seconds game of ee (my first lasted 8 minutes or so =[), forgive me for not knowing what it's like.

indeed, any map with more then 4 metal per mex should be banned from koee.

Look, I generated the title where any challenger could pick their map, and I stand by that idea. I personally have no fondness for metal maps, but the right of choice is the challenger's and any restriction there just isn't on.
Also, if you must blame somebody for the map, blame the challenger. They pick, they run with it. I gave BoredJoe the title after designing it because he demonstrated qualities I would expect in a potential KoEE, mainly flexibility and tenacity, and was not a member of [EE].

Well, get me some proof, and we will see. I know you took it as [Tired] once. Anyway, as he lost the title and then picked it back up... you are free to challenge.

It's more about the design and balance of EE than it is about like or dislike of metal maps; it's a simple fact that EE does not play as it was intended, heck it doesn't play well at all, on metal maps.
One could argue the same thing about any mod but IMO EE is above and beyond other mods in this respect.

I know that, but I feel bad restricting map run types. Unless, of course, more people think I should remove metal maps from the choices.

You should, cause EE plays Very Very badly on them by design. In fact at one point there was an effort to make it so that if you played EE on speedmetal anything you built would cause you to drain -999999999 metal constant.
Regardless of that, EE is just no good and no fun on metal maps. TA was made with metal maps in mind, EE was made with Metal Maps being nonexistant.
A better discription. On metal maps EE turns into nothing more than a Nanoblobs Click-spam fest.

See, I stopped playing metal maps before I started playing E&E. Otherwise, I might have known this!
An edict from above! After testing, I have decided to restrict the map list, removing all metal maps and all maps without any metal. To the Wiki!
