Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
Well first I'll thank the wonderful people who judged the 2010 Mr. Netgamers contest. I was fortunate enough to be selected as one of the winners and it was very nice to be recognized, so again, thank you very much, and I really do appreciate it.

One of the prizes is free hosting and web space. With that in mind, I'd really like to use it for something that could benefit the entire community. Here's what I'd like to see in this thread......

If there is something you thought would be nice to have on a community wide basis, some project, idea, something you scratched out on a pizza box or a napkin... whatever... I'd like to hear your thoughts, ideas, and/or suggestions.

Maybe a basic set of tools for smaller alliances that are just starting out, or something for new players to use, to help them learn the game and have more success.... I'm open to any thoughts... so please post those ideas in this thread.

Please do keep it civil... no idea is a bad one in this matter, and I want this to be fun for everyone.


Thanks

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
why keep them coming?? just get sandmans back ffs!!!

No one wants it wasting on some stupid idea just use the free space to host sandmans and make everyone happy

aNgRyDuCk 13 Oct 2010 22:23

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
well, because I would like to have some options, maybe there's something that's needed more, if not, if this is what we need to use the space for then I'm perfectly fine with that, just want to make sure we make the best possible use of it

also, if Sandman is willing to release the code, I've been made aware of some other hosting options for it.... so we'll try to follow up on that... still, keep the ideas coming

I can't think of anything that would be more useful or more widely used than sandmans 2.0.

hanzi , it was advertised on forums , irc :p

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
Indeed, a Sandmans with maybe also a scanparser for alliance attacks would be awesome.


You can even call it Kargools appriciation tools

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
A public scan database everyone can use!

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
a facebook like site
just for PA players

where people post about their rounds "today i got attacked by x:y:z and he completely crashed, lulz"
it could also behold a database where alliance and planetrank would be safed (donīt think we get our passport system, so why not make one ourselves)

Also Alliances could use it to 1) inform about a new recruit (if he signed up and played before that is) and maybe 2) advertise theirselves with more then just plain text on this forums and even 3) directly contact players to recruit em "hey we like your attitude, ever thought about joining xyz?"

would give an insight about what the single PA player does, what he expects from PA and the community and where his ties are (befriended with xx other pa players)

imo that would be a much more useful thing then sandmans (which will be hosted by someone anyhow, i am sure)

Interesting concept...

Its a terrible idea that nobody would ever use. Facebook is pretty shit already; god help us if somebody created a far more shit clone of it (and who could be bothered doing that?) for the ten odd people still playing this game.

The only useful suggestion that anybody is ever going to come up with is hosting Sandmans. You can't really play the game properly without it, it's already coded, and it needs hosting space. Its a no brainer really.

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
Seems its pretty hard to get any code from sandman, he isnt answering any messages or even returning my love letters...

Elevator 15 Oct 2010 14:28

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
bring back sandmans.
if you want a facebook shit thing to go with it I'm sure there is a way to create a laughing wall where you can redicule ppl who crash. (or just point them to an ascendancy channel and we'll do it for free.

Sandmans, hands down (emo over it's loss)...

On the other hand, *Mister* Netgamers is totally sexist.

Ladies need a chance to win free stuff too! :devil:

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
Iīm pro sandmans, too. It was the very first idea that came to my mind, and I still canīt find anything else really.

Might be a problem though if Sandman is so hard to catch atm.

aNgRyDuCk 16 Oct 2010 22:27

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
LOL BB, it was purely my wife pushing the issue... anyhow, someone needs to get with Sandman and get the code, then I'm happy to work out getting it done as needed

Darothane 16 Oct 2010 23:25

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
I'm sure I saw a post from Sandman saying that he would release the code at some point soon.

ellonweb 17 Oct 2010 00:56

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
1) Sandmans
2) Integrated web/irc scan service, for requesting scans and viewing parsed scans (like #scans but better). This should be linked in to Sandmans and vice-versa.
3) A system whereby an alliance can create an account (subdomain?) and near instantly deploy a toolset (web+irc). Obviously I'm biased and suggesting Merlin here, but any other available toolsets could also be made available as other options.

Really though, all this should be provided by PA/Jagex.

Re: Mr. Netgamers 2010... and A Bold New Project?
 
Sandmans please. PA has become (even more) boring without it! :(

God, I remember the day you all thought Sandmans was a Fury/1up tool to gather information.

No, I refuse to code another set of alliance tools! I like my life of not coding and not having to tell people to piss off over the phone when they call me to recall a fleet whilst I'm in bed severely hungover!
