| 04:08.12 | [NP]Tangent | how am I supposed to find a match for OL when the forums are down!! |
| 04:08.16 | brlcad | indeed |

| 04:11.48 | a_meteorite | [NP]Tangent: wow, just looked at OL's contact list |

| 04:12.47 | [NP]Tangent | CBG is one, right? |
| 04:12.48 | [NP]Tangent | :D |

| 04:12.58 | [NP]Tangent | yeah |
| 04:13.00 | a_meteorite | heh, don't see why it needs a server |
| 04:13.06 | [NP]Tangent | some teams have been trying to match |
| 04:13.10 | [NP]Tangent | it just hasn't worked out well |
| 04:13.24 | [NP]Tangent | someone invites us to a match, then they don't respond when I accept |
| 04:13.50 | a_meteorite | hah |
| 04:14.39 | [NP]Tangent | oh, it was lighting |
| 04:14.40 | blast007 | maybe there's just too many leagues? ;) |

| 04:14.58 | a_meteorite | I can guarantee plosileague is way more inactive :) |
| 04:15.37 | [NP]Tangent | or you can join OL! |
| 04:15.37 | [NP]Tangent | :D |
| 04:15.39 | a_meteorite | nah |
| 04:15.42 | [NP]Tangent | and get an active team |
| 04:15.45 | a_meteorite | not nearly as fun :P |
| 04:15.53 | [NP]Tangent | my friends and I have been looking for a match |
| 04:16.11 | a_meteorite | I don't like OL's philosophy |
| 04:16.31 | [NP]Tangent | what's not to like? |
| 04:17.08 | a_meteorite | too many styles, always different match lengths, not keeping their mods open-source (there was a huge issue about that) |
| 04:17.17 | brlcad | ahh, when the system finished updating, it finally got to php and for whatever reason, php's default configuration setting in ports is sans apache module |

| 19:27.40 | blast007 | we could do a karma system for ranks! |
| 19:27.46 | JeffM2501 | actualy what would be nice would be to base it on account lifetime, not posts |
| 19:28.16 | CBG | Yeah, let everyone give a thumbs Up/Down for every post. Base ranks on the accumulated karma. |
| 19:28.23 | JeffM2501 | or break it into 2 groups, and base it on time played in BZ |
| 19:28.44 | JeffM2501 | put everyone in "enlisted" and let them get up to warrant officer based on time played in BZ |
| 19:29.01 | JeffM2501 | then put server ops, mods, admins, etc. into the officers |

| 19:29.26 | CBG | "server ops" |
| 19:29.36 | CBG | would include whom, exactly? |
| 19:29.36 | JeffM2501 | the big server owners that help out a lot |
| 19:29.51 | JeffM2501 | everyone who gives me a dollar |
| 19:29.56 | L4m3r | :) |
| 19:30.09 | CBG | I've donated more than $1. ;) |
| 19:30.13 | JeffM2501 | there ya go then |
| 19:30.25 | CBG | Ranks based on donations would be sweet too. |
| 19:30.31 | JeffM2501 | yeah |
| 19:30.43 | JeffM2501 | or at least move donators to a group that marks them as donators |
| 19:30.59 | L4m3r | yeah, a more equal thing would be better IMO |
| 19:31.16 | CBG | Rich.B*st*rds |
| 19:31.24 | L4m3r | prevent it from becoming competitive or anything |
| 19:31.24 | JeffM2501 | heh |
| 19:31.39 | JeffM2501 | L4m3r, we were talking about changing it to be based on account time, or time played in BZ |
| 19:31.40 | JeffM2501 | not posts |
| 19:31.48 | L4m3r | ah |
| 19:31.57 | CBG | What's wrong with competitive donating? ;) |
| 19:32.23 | CBG | Might motivate the devs a little... |
| 19:32.26 | L4m3r | it's cause problems eventually |
| 19:32.31 | L4m3r | it'd* |
| 19:32.43 | L4m3r | people are stupid, especially with regards to money |
| 19:33.01 | CBG | "omg omg. I got so many donations I cant find my computah!!" |
| 19:33.12 | L4m3r | pretty much |
| 19:33.48 | L4m3r | and what happens when some dumbass kid sends you guys $200 from his parents' paypal? :) |
| 19:34.34 | CBG | what $200 ? |
| 19:34.43 | L4m3r | lol |
| 19:35.13 | L4m3r | methinks it'd be safer (and possibly more effective) to have donation drives once a year or so, rather than basing anything on amount |
| 19:35.59 | L4m3r | and perhaps rank them by how long they've been donating, rather than how much |
| 19:36.18 | CBG | Besides, if someone did that, it'd teach the parent to 1. be more freaking sensible with their goddamn money and 2. to discipline their goddamn kids.. Win-Win. |
| 19:36.33 | brlcad | L4m3r: indeed, many people's brains shut down when it involes a $ |
| 19:37.50 | brlcad | CBG: I, for one, would be entirely uncompelled by donations |
| 19:37.53 | CBG | One of my donations was out of guilt. Someone held a contest - you create a page on his site and he counts the hits to the page between two dates. The owner of the page that had the most hits won $100. I hit that page myself about 100 times a day, won by a massive margin. |
| 19:38.19 | CBG | I felt so bad I donated $10 to the charity closest to my heart: bz. |
| 19:38.26 | L4m3r | lol |
| 19:38.40 | CBG | brlcad: what if, I instead spent the money on hot chicks and had them visit you? |
| 19:38.47 | brlcad | heh |
| 19:38.51 | brlcad | that'd be different |
| 19:39.08 | CBG | Ok, seems like we finally found a motivator for the bz devs...! |
| 19:39.44 | brlcad | i'm motivated by appreciation and seeing progress in the project's code being made |
| 19:40.04 | brlcad | moreso the latter |
| 19:42.16 | brlcad | so even more important than the money would be getting every bug and patch reviewed, getting valid bugs fixed, getting good patches integrated, speeding up development, increasing our average player count, etc |
| 19:42.41 | CBG | stuff like that requires motivation. |
| 19:42.56 | CBG | so we can conclude that motivation depends on motivation. :| |
| 19:42.57 | brlcad | but stuff like that doesn't require a dev |
| 19:43.33 | brlcad | except for the actual integration part |
| 19:43.53 | CBG | bug fixes could. depends on the bug... |
| 19:45.02 | brlcad | isolating exactly what causes a particular bug, finding the circumstances that make them perfectly repeatable .. quite invaluable and time consuming but generally doesn't specifically require looking at source code |

| 20:09.11 | brlcad | even just validating or refuting which of the 200 some odd reported bugs are actually repeatable would be valuable, though isolating the condition helps too, as does fixiing the bug :) |
| 20:09.32 | brlcad | KTL: uml class diagrams would be mildly amusing and potentially interesting |
| 20:09.52 | KTL | mmm, potentially indeed |
| 20:09.54 | brlcad | it's going to be relatively messy, but it might help |
| 20:11.29 | KTL | not that i am an expert in it, but for my studies i got several projects asking uml, my mind does not accept too much handwork, it has too be generated, and ... the last uml got me hacking in all kinds of code, it drove me so crazy i decided to do something about it after the exams |
| 20:11.58 | Erroneous | mm, 'twould be amusing indeed |
| 20:16.04 | brlcad | ever seen a "fully connected" uml relationship graph? :) |

| 21:13.32 | KTL | i am not extremely sure of it, but did something change the last versions about the way a tank can jump the moment he falls back on the ground? |
| 21:13.59 | KTL | i remember that my tank could jump at full speed immediately after touching the ground |
| 21:14.27 | KTL | and now if i fall and jump immediately forward then i just jump on the same spot |

| 21:30.06 | brlcad | blast007: ahh, it's because the latest version of mod_perl is failing to compile cleanly |
| 21:30.10 | ts | KTL: That is an inertia setting which makes only sense on servers that are not allowing jumping |
| 21:30.45 | blast007 | brlcad: k :) |
| 21:31.02 | KTL | ts: is this client side, can i deconfigure that one? |
| 21:31.21 | blast007 | KTL: nope |
| 21:31.27 | ts | KTL: It isn't thought for turning off at client side |
| 21:31.35 | blast007 | the server controls that setting |
| 21:32.17 | KTL | mmm a server that has not been configured well then |
| 21:32.18 | ts | KTL: Its purpose is to slow people driving with fast accelerated mouse cursors down at the ground |
| 21:32.34 | ts | Most of the servers aren't configured well |
| 21:32.36 | KTL | well yes people who put them fast like me for example :D |
| 21:33.19 | KTL | i can not play 6 hours by moving the mouse constantly 10 cm's on my desk :) |
| 21:33.55 | ts | Basically those who use the inertia settings and allow jumping at the same time don't know what they are doing because every tank behaves different to inertia |
| 21:34.35 | ts | KTL: Heh, I move my mouse less than 1cm for a full turn ;) |
| 21:34.36 | KTL | ? what makes the difference between tanks? |
| 21:34.51 | ts | It's depending on framerate |
| 21:35.01 | KTL | aha |
| 21:35.14 | brlcad | ahh, mod_perl2 is doing much better |
| 21:35.20 | KTL | so fast framerate -> less inertia? |
| 21:35.21 | ts | The lower your framerate is the more advantage you have |
| 21:35.53 | KTL | mmm |
| 21:35.56 | ts | Which means playing with crap hardware gives people an advance |
| 21:36.26 | KTL | they can more often jump fast away |
| 21:37.37 | KTL | 15 mm for me to move from the middle to the center, i should not be to low to accurately climb small structures |
