Member Retired Gumby Posts: 964 | I think Tuss had a good idea when he said we (the forum members) could compete in a simple game like Generally and start a tournament here on this board. We'd just have to choose a game we all can agree with. Someone interested? |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11098 | Sure, I'm always interested - even if it's Gene Rally or chess ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Member Retired Gumby Posts: 964 | Fastest reply ever... Of course, we also need proposals what game to play. |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11098 | Well, there's Tetrinet if you want something really simple ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11098 | If a game has a network play option in which you're stated for the other player's IP, would it be playable over Internet then? That's the same protocoll, isn't it? ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11098 | Tapuak and I just tested some: -Blobby Volleyball (available from The Good Old Days) -> working after some tries; everybody should use the same version (the one from TGOD is the most stable one) -ZSNES (SNES emulator) with the example WWF Raw -> working; everybody must use the same emulator version (newest ZSNES for Windows) With basically every SNES game being available, we shouldn't have much problems finding something I'm open to both 'fun' games (i.e. playing against / with someone just for the sake of it) as well as an organized 'tournament' Edited by Mr Creosote at 23:02 on October, 27th 2002 ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Member Retired Gumby Posts: 936 | Tetrinet sounds good, but so does a lot of stuff, but I've played that before. Whenever we do this and I'm around, I can host, I have T4 with a 1.6 GHz. Sometimes tution's worth it, eh Tuss ----- Keep your stick on the ice |

Member Prof Gumby Posts: 560 | I'm up to play any game you propose... Just don't have any ideas right now... ----- "In theory, if people bred as fast as ants, and with an equal indifference for it's surrounding species, earth would have 5 million human inhabitants at the turn of the century.

Member Retired Gumby Posts: 964 | We could also take a simple racing game like Micro Machines and compete in breaking each other's records. That way we wouldn't have to be online at the same time. For a "real time" tournament, I'd agree with everything mentioned here plus some simple SNES games: Bomberman (up to four players), Street Fighter, WWF Raw... |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11098 | Well, since nobody really seems to propose something definite (of course I do agree with all proposals, yes), I'll vote for Micro Machines 2. Not necessarily in the way Tapuak proposed, but as a series of Head to Head challenges. Edited by Mr Creosote at 20:32 on October, 29th 2002 ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Member Retired Gumby Posts: 964 | Does Micro Machines 2 have a network option? |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11098 | Not 'by default', but we could use the SNES version ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Member Retired Gumby Posts: 964 | Yes, but does that work with more than two players as well? |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11098 | I don't know, but does it have to? We could play against each other in pairs until everyone has competed against all the others. One point for each win and so on. ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Member Retired Gumby Posts: 964 | Okay, in my opinion we can make a start with that game. (of course that doesn't mean the other proposals will be ignored) For all members who don't have Micro Machines 2: Download With this post, I sign up for the MM2 tournament. |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11098 | I think it's a good idea to start with a game like Micro Machines because there isn't that much training needed. Take Street Fighter 2 for example - I wouldn't have the slightest idea which fighter to choose, how to activate the special moves and so on I think it said all players have to have identical ROMs for Internet play, everybody should download the one Tapuak put up. Also keep the filename of the ROM, because it has to be identical, too. I'm in ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |
