AO Wargame

hey.. why not someone start an AO wargame?

I have to agree with Terr on these topics. Starting war games and such will just bring a bunch of "l33t" wannabes to the site, something JP is trying to get rid of with the recent improvements to the site...


If you want war games I believe cyberarmy run a few competitions....

today a person in irc.antionline.com asked that same question and the great JP spoke :)

he said the war games were going to be brought here networked with computers on its own T1 line to not distrupt AO. He spoke that the wargames would have sumthin to be based on anti-points so if u intend to participate in it i suggest u attempt to bring up ur AO points ;)

thats all that was really said but u should keep ur eyes open for it in the up commin months from what he said

while on the subject , u can get quicker answers to questions by going to irc.antionline.com or usin the java chat client here - > http://services.antionline.com/

Conf1rm3d_K1ll: not when we have rules.. like any wargames. we need rules..

and probably let members with 45 antipoints or higher let have access to the wargames..
so we can be sure that the ones who are in the wargame are da good guys hehe..

we juz need some regulations.. and ermm do post on the site we have a wargame but the details would be e-mailed to the people who are qualified to join the wargame..

Ermm.. I think that the AO members participating in the AO wargames should have more than 45 points. After all, it should be a privlege to participate and encourage members to post better threads and replies. For instance a member with 300 points should have more site privleges than a member with 45. Just my opinion though.

I agree on that...

A wargame eh? If there is ever going to be a wargame I hope it's not one of those simple "hack-the-password-and-debug/dissassemble-VB Programs" hacking challenge. For I hate those (especially when it gets to the VB part, that just ruins my day...). And there should be more than one wargame going. One for Linux, then another for Windows [users]. So both 'worlds' can get the best part.

Also, if JP is going to design his own wargame, he should really put some thought into it and see if he can make it where people actually learn from this experiance rather then just fail over and over again without any knowledge of what their doing wrong (or right, if they just randomly guess the password/username/whatever). But, get ready for a whole new: "AO Wargame" forum, when right now I think the place is a bit 'overcrowded'. I think he should actually wait a bit for this wargame to come up. I mean,...in the past month there have been record changes in AO (at least to me :p). But it's all up to him.

And I agree with Remote_Access_ here, a 300 point user probably is more respected and well known and should have more privledges than the average user. And besides, JP promised: more antipoints more privledges....so, this may be one of them. :p

hey Remote_Access_!! lastnight you only had two green dots!! and now you have five!! haha how did you get so much in such short time?!! lolz

hey Remote_Access_!! lastnight you only had two green dots!!
- yup

and now you have five!! haha how did you get so much in such short time?!! lolz
*shrugs* I dunno.. I racked up alot of points for Human cloning and The Death Penalty threads.. I didn't know everyone would be that interested in those topic but thanks again everyone for your opinions, replies, and points. ;)

:D Remote_Access_ :D

yeah but i think that there should be some subjective reasoning to it too. Not just some shiney magical number that people must hit to be alloud but a shiney magical number that should be alloud before you could apply like a senior member and 200 antipoints then a moderators final say. Definatly a moderators final say.

- There is..

"Not just some shiney magical number that people must hit to be alloud but a shiney magical number that should be alloud before you could apply like a senior member and 200 antipoints then a moderators final say. Definatly a moderators final say."

- Ermm... a shiney magical number, eh?.. Well what ever this 'magical number' is will be up to JP. However, a moderators say isn't as important as JP's, they probably will have some say in this since JP is busy. The only reason you chose 200 antipoints is cause thats what you have.. I say at least 300.. Like [WebCarnage] said:

- Exacally, and a user with 200 points dosent have the privledges as a user with 400+ ;)
This should be one of those privledges. :D

Good idea it will bring a lot of people to this site

i wish i had the log of JP talkin bout war games the other week when i posted above but i dunt :( i dont bother keeping logs cause the end up takin up to much room and may have data i dont want other to see if they find a way to get to them ;)

Maybe u can ask around on AO's irc server for anyone who logged the channel that day and we could see what he exactly said, cause i only summed it up.

\

interesting... i do agree that using anti points is a good way to start and includes ranking with privileges.
