That must be awesome. I get the mental image of you waving your arms around wildly and jumping up and down as you play. :lol-old: At least you must be getting a workout when playing. How much would you guys know about connecting a non-conventional controller to the computer to play BZ? I'm an RC air...

1. Not too big and complex, easy to navigate - Badgerking's 2. Enough obstacles to make shootouts interesting, but not so crowded as to make it hard to drive. - Spiralzone 3. Well balanced design for the super-flags, teams and combat. - I need to think on this one... 4. Novel, creative design - Loum...

I really liked Spiralzone when I was younger because there were so many nice players who helped me out when I was a noob. Nowadays, I love badgerking's for its intense close-combat and hidey-hole environment.

Awesome presentation. So you've probably been at it for 500 hours?

or is that just me - I usually have to remind myself 30 seconds after looking at a wall that there is nobody there to id so stop clicking!

Does having it glued down count?

I'm practically pegging the ID button as much as the fire button. Usually if I don't I find myself dead by an unforeseen SW, G, SR, GM, L, you name it.

Onto my third year.

A follow on to the post, "How Long Does It Take To Get Good?": http://my.bzflag.org/bb/viewtopic.php?t=9589 I mostly did all of the above; I'd observe how people played/behaved in the game and would pick up techniques from them or develop moves to counter what they did. I would practice th...

For the sake of the noobs who feel it's a long way to the top... It took me about 150 hours of play for me to stop getting a negative score. Then to start being among the top three or within 10 kills of the leader, about 300 hours more after the first 150. Even now, I still see I have lots of room f...

That 'language' joke reminds me of an old pilots' joke: From: http://www.f-16.net/humor_article10.html Bull *Many* commercial aircraft are stacked up waiting for approach toO'Hare Int'l, ATC has inflicted numerous delays, and some planes are already 1-2 hours late. The WX is good, it's just that the...

I seem to a master at pwning myself spectacularly.

You and I are alike, I am my own worse enemy most of the time.
Where can I find all my shot statistics? I want to see if my hunch is correct that I have shot myself more times than anyone has shot me.

I will play so long that when I am dead and buried, I want it so that I am with a high-end gaming computer with BZFlag on it and a high speed internet connection. I also want the computer's controls to be rigged with one of those EVP-sensitive devices so I can control and play the game from the othe...

Sometimes, I go online with a nametag as a counter to someone's name: The Vet -> High Karate Kitty Lowdown Tae Kwon Do Dog -> High Karate Kitty Eff De Eh Eejinto (Japanese, FDA Agent) -> Bad Sushi Medicus Beastia (Latin for 'Animal Doctor' = The Vet) -> High Karate Kitty And then I do nothing but sp...

In order of ability, I speak English, French, German, Latin, Japanese and Spanish. I have used all of them at one point while playing or another.

- Eff De A Eejinto

I sometimes play it because my computer can handle the simpler graphics better; hence I get improved game performance. Also, there are no wingers

Welcome to BZFlag v3.0, "Thompson's Terror"!

I remember the old school BZFlag, after you shot your opponent, his tank would bust into flame and a man would come out and surrender, and you could shoot this man. >)

Someday, we can make a super-violent DOOM patch for BZ just to drive people crazy. Sigh, I'm seriously nuts.

BZFlag is just a game. People failing to tell the difference between facts and fictions is not the victim of computergames. They should get help, which isnt to blame the games but determining why they cant tell what is acceptable in real life and was is fiction. (removed alot of mumbling) Right on....

Today, someone decided to post the same thing from a few days back, so I called them an attention hog. IT WAS COOL!!!

Last night, I was listening to a radio interview of Attorney Jack Thompson by Chatterbox Radio (See end of post). As a member of a gaming community, I had to raise an eyebrow to some of Thompson's claims. Thompson has been well-known for is campaign against obscenity and violence in popular media. A...

Me and some other guy were in an intense shootout on secretplace last week. And in the intensity, we shot ourselves. AT THE SAME TIME.

What you need to do is make a Halloween Exclusive Special map for October 31st. It could be made to look like a haunted house, complete with all the traps and pitfalls (much like MadCity's sewers that will rust your tank). That way not only will the teams have to fight each other, but they will have...

Man, some of the bad flags and weapons you guys are proposing are really trippy and cool. I wanna see them. And get that trippy feeling. Hmm. Bad Flag - Trippy Makes the field look like a trippy Pink Floyd music vid. E.g. Illusionary tanks, shots, flying moving buildings, objects and flags, etc. As ...

That was great, Gerbil.

But what does Neo's lightsaber do?
