10/22/10
BLR-IIC had just typed -surveyor when about 1.5 minutes later the server rebooted for some reason. It was gonna be a doozy of a Salvage with 6 players eligible to be destroyed with an average of about 80 tons. Unless I get objections I'm gonna award a 1-time total of all the available tonnage to both BLR and Donnerkrieg (same team as BLR) of 500.
----
Grey area - sometimes the rules aren't clear in which case, if I remember, I will post in the Log Notes asking for objections. If you have objections send me a PM here to stay anonymous with your reasons. If I get 4 or more objections I will eliminate whatever I proposed.
----
Going forward no more Speaker -mystats after a map ends. Of course it will show zero deaths cause ur in the lobby. 2 players and 3 times it happened.

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY!! TAKE NOTE CHAOTICS! You must now type -end after either you or HUNTED are destroyed!! It is taking too long to search for whom destroyed whom since there is no time limit. Also, I only looked in log for about 2 minutes after you typed -vendetta and if I didn't see anything I ignored. THIS IS GOING FORWARD...
----
If players tie in Lotto, Jackpot is split. Jackpot now starts at 500 and everyday not won increases 500.
----
I change small rules here and there on website and not always posted here in forums. Would be a good idea to consult the website first if you have a question...the main locations for changes are the Occupations themselves and About Rankings...also the new box at bottom of Rankings Page has useful information but changes daily. If you just check those 3 locations you should be good to go. Also, if you play Solaris or Planetary I would check those pages often.
----
going forward you cannot receive credit for Salvage/-surveyor if you swap out mechs in the middle of the map. Giving credit to Wyrmsfire this once for 200 Rank Points of -surveyor (also Ded-1 and Kobol cause on same team).
----
U can use the BA Bonus for -planetary but only if you meet the criteria (20 tons or below)
----
Going forward Knights can bet normally...

You penalized Metatron-X 2000 points for betting as a Knight yesterday.
I know...that was for the previous day because he was betting as a Knight. I was penalizing him for that.

*don't use -vendetta against bots
*no Solaris 
*lotto goes in the following format: -lotto 45
*MUST type -end when Chaotic or Hunted is destroyed
*if your not sure when to type -level ask me
Spread the word that those with Occupations MUST be reading the forums daily. |

If a player gets a kill from a Suicide, but the Suicide message shows first in log (which it usually does), any Occupational dependencies on that kill will be null....About Occupations updated.
----
If a player has the same name as a Bot, they will be immune to the Ranking System. Unfortunately, this has to be the case as I cannot distinguish it in the log. I think this happened yesterday with Loki. About Rankings updated...
----
Very important if you play Planetary. -factory has been changed to -manufacture. -factory is conflicting with the same command that displays the map info for Factory. Planetary and in-game messages have been changed.
----
Pilot upgraded...max level changed to 20 and Pilots can now type -level upon any ranking kill/streakkill message whether or not you get a crit or not.

-end isn't working for -vendetta. -end is also used for -duel and for any mini-games. When you are successful in a vendetta type -won, otherwise type nothing.

This is the first time I used the new Text Parser made by Bob Ross. The uploaded log file to the website is the output of the text parser and made my job a little easier. Thx Bob
----
Don't forget for -vendetta use -won if you win not -end as its used for other things.
----
watch the overuse of -vendetta

AnTi90d, you have to be careful not to delete your own -centurion. Yesterday, you halted rank points for 30 seconds, but you typed -centurion within those 30 seconds twice. I caught it, but keep it in mind...
----
Going forward, you can kill Wraith as many times as you can as long as another player in the game. Its actually faster for me to just write "10" for each time it is killed rather than keep looking at the time stamp to see if the 6th one is another game or not.
----
wow, only 1 marked player the entire day yesterday...
----
not sure Wyrm why you typed -politician like 6 times...
----
lotto bestows 1000 for a correct guess, 200 for closest non-correct...still progressive if no one guesses during the day
----
Planetary is NOT over...it continues until someone takes all 4 planets...its just begun and is meant to take a long time. Kobol, you received a couple of ranking +10 messages but didnt put toward planetary, was surprised.
----
Once you reach Max Level please don't type -level anymore

Oh, I didn't know it worked that way. Hah.. I was trying to get a little crumb of points in the 5x multiplier time period with the d6 thing.

I just noticed (while I was trying to decide on which occupation to try for Season 4) that under the Chaotic occupation description, it still says to type -end instead of -won.

Diplomats, please read up on when you should type level. Only type -level when a player above you (or yourself) receives a negative message and you type diplomat (within 30 seconds). You can type -level once to remind me to tally up the number of players with Occupations for your inherent bonus, but only once.
----
Raiders, make sure you type -raider within the 1st 60 seconds. Someone yesterday typed it near the last 2 minutes of a game.
----
From now on I'm rounding regarding 1's. For example, yesterday someone got a Salvage for 619...I rounded to 620.
----
No Solaris matches I revamped Solaris so go try it out! -solaris now displays C-bill mech value rather than a d12 roll. Special Solaris command will be 1d6, 1d10 or 1d10 bonus so now, even if someone has purchased the maximum bonus, it is still possible to be defeated. I envision, that if someone really wants to win Solaris Season they will jump in the Mechlab and research which weapons cost the most and outfit their mech for the best chance at winning. Thank you Kobol for trying 1 Solaris yesterday. If players don't start playing, I'm gonna reward those who do try and play and start penalizing those that do not.
----
no Planetary yesterday I forgot to mention that during the intercession I was not looking at the log at all so I didn't update Planetary; too late now. But, Planetary is back in action so if you get a +10/+100 kill/streakkill message consider doing -planetary. Only 2 players are participating so far and it has been 2 weeks (minus the 3 day intercession). We had our first Planetary combat. Kobol attacked Omnicide. Results updated.

BIG change on Raider. Its too difficult to look through all the -raider/-scans now. I sometimes have multiple -raiders and twice as many -scans. Throw is whether some of the scans succeed or fail. Rather than wade through it to see what matches what, 1 successful -scan halts ALL raids.
----
Good job on playing Solaris yesterday. I am changing the rule that only 2 can play at once. There is now an unlimited # that can play in a match (there were 3 playing at once yesterday).
----
7 missed opportunities for rolling crit yesterday. Those opportunities could really pay off because no one owns the Critical category yet.
----
Not sure why I have to keep reminding to use -won instead of -end for vendetta. This goes back into last season. Stop using -end! -end is used for duels, and card games/mini-games (yes they provide points too but no one ever does them).
----
Added -way to list of commands

Hi Coolant:
I tried the Duelist occupation yesterday and didn't notice anywhere in the occupation description where is says to type -end after a conflict resolution. I went ahead and typed -end anyway (at least when I remembered to), either after I destroyed my opponent or after 1 minute had passed. Is this correct? Also, does my opponent lose any points after they have lost to a -onevone like they would in a standard -duel?
