Help / Why are people ghosting so much on MY server?

« on: August 14, 2012, 03:41:41 PM »

It's not a dedicated.

the comps here has ample cpu and ram for hosting.
got a solid connection on a 12mbps net.

the server is only like 50k bricks, and we dont have lag issues unless i minimize or something.

but like 1/10th of the people who join say they are forever ghosting. and some things just never load.
what is causing this?

General Discussion / Bisjac's Water Park

« on: August 12, 2012, 03:38:29 PM »

Update:

The main park area is up and we have a number of completed rides to enjoy. and more OTW as people join back tomorrow to continue.

- I am going to need a skilled eventer and detail builder to build the park clubhouse in the basic center area of the park. a good 64x sized one.
will include locker rooms, bathrooms, snack shack, an indoor cafe type area.

- and I will be needing an info booth for server rules and theme guidelines.


i may get to the info booth if no one wants it, but im currently working on a massive log ride that will rival real roller coasters. will take some time for me, so i cant touch the clubhouse.

If you want something new and unique to do with your event skills.
If you like to build those slides using ramp bricks.
Or want a chance to try using water bricks in new fun ways that the boat vehicle didn't allow before.

Stop by and try it out.


We got an innertube vehicle that works fantastically with the water.
It also slides around on the BL community's popular styled ramp-slides (as long as you build it wide enough for the inner tube)

a bunch of you join and just idle in the room, or bash his playing or something for a while.

hes some random guy that use to be in a clan i am in, and i dont know why he is streaming, but he seemed impressed that he had 2 whole friends in the room.

so some of you who got time, just spam the chat for a while till he notices and goes "wtf"
he thinks hes hardcore streaming, i just wanna see his embarrassed face when he realizes all his deaths being watched.
(yes you can see his face as well as the game)

Suggestions & Requests / [s]Tech[/s]Block-nic

« on: July 20, 2012, 09:42:29 PM »

lul at strike tag not working in subject box. but im leaving it :p


   I prob suggest this every year or so. so here goes again.
I want "technic" physics and bricks and buildability (its a word) on blockland.

yes i am aware of the issues it will cause to current physics, current maps, current tree.
but that is why its that dream update right? :D

of course at the end of the day, something like this would also mean full on buildable non static vehicles amd other such impossible things. ; ;
but not everything that uses a gear, pulley, winch has to be for a vehicle

Games / FFVII PC re-release

Most of you will not care. but for RPG fans, and classic game lovers; this is a must have. This was the game that made RPGs popular, and sold the ps1.
and pretty much the last good final fantasy there was lol (1997)

This will be nothing like playing the PSX rom version, everything nice and HD compatible (not new graphics, but will work on modern resolutions without giving you eye cancer.) with cloud saving and achievements being added.

Its out today :D
super cited to play

Games / Bisjac's - Open TTD

« on: July 08, 2012, 09:12:30 PM »

Server Status: OFFLINE
Will be up monday the 9th, evening



Game Name: Blockland-Bisjac
Connect to IP: If the game isn't listed, try connecting to "76.113.186.171"
Password: (must forum message or steam message me to get it)

Game Type:
- Players skilled enough to not bankrupt themselves. This isn't a practice game, nor will we teach you to play this game. Dont spam failed companies here. bankrupting = perm ban for all future games.
(if you are actually learning how to play, ask questions in this topic. Do not join this game if you are a noob)
- The goal isnt to compete heavily this round. But instead to all create cool road and rail networks and just be chill.


Enforced Gameplay Rules:
- 10 planes max, per player (very heavily enforced)
- 300 road vehicles per player
- 200 trains per player
- 100 boats per player
- No buying city transport rights
- No terrain spam
- No spamming of any kind actually, we like a clean world.
- No taking of other player's goods and food they produced
- Respect other player's claimed resources (however mail and passengers are free game)
- Do not claim cities or resources you are not instantly developing to use.
- No excessive diagonal tracks, as they hinder city and other players from building nearby.

Map Type:
- Very low cities
- Low industries
- Tropical/Desert map
- Flat land
- Medium sea level

Game settings:
- No 90-degree turns for trains and boats
- Realistic acceleration for road vehicles and trains on startups and hill driving. (dependent on horse power and load they carry)
- Break downs are enabled, your vehicles will need to sometimes revisit depots for upkeep.
- inactive companies without passwords automatically deleted in 3 months.
- inactive companies with passwords automatically deleted in 20 years


Favored city:
We all usually play with the unwritten rule, that we eventually develop heavily around 1 or 2 main cities of our liking. And we pretty much don't want other players to share it. Please respect this, as players put a lot of money and work into making a city like them back. There are few hundred cities, im sure we can all find our own lol.


Noob to the game?

Drama / Off Topic's Spam and Forum-Games

« on: July 02, 2012, 09:08:04 AM »

Clearly you all know what a forum game is.
I also define forum games as the topics that request spam, or any other content to be dumped.

from page 1;


(space)


this is roughly how many topics we get to view in off topic at any given moment of any day.
page 2 and 3 look exactly the same, and so on.

I am formally requesting (not expecting anything) a new sub-Off Topic forum for "Forum Games / Content topics"

Just as the drama section was created solely to filter out junk from the off topic section when it was unbearable and impossible to view, it needs to happen once again.
