Multiplayer league

[Modjo]

Hi all,

I am working on a ranking system for Warlock and I will get into more details further in this post. More generally I am trying to get things a bit more organized than what they are at the moment with the multiplayer lobby.

Features:
- report games that you have played and their outcome.
- see other players game history and ranking.
- consult the global ranking ladder.

Objective:
- centralized player database
- find other players with similar level
- online stats
- a bit of competition (== fun)
- get a feeling of community

If this system picks up I will move on to organize mini-tournaments and/or anything you feel like suggesting.

This is still work in progress but you can start posting your matches result right now and I will include them in the database later when everything is ready. Please follow that template to report games, this will make my life easier. See example game below:

number of players: 2 (if more than 2 players, please explain the setup if there are teams or ffa etc...)
Modjo
Korog
winner: Modjo (for a change )
end date: 27-08-2012 (when the game is over, not when it started)

optional

map size: small
map type: supercontinent
ai players: 0
comments: fit here anything that you like. You could for example describe what happened during the game, what house rules you used or what starting perks you had.

Thats a great idea Modjo.
I will not be able to play this week, but after that I will start to report my results.

Waiting for next patch. Some important multiplayer fix should be included (i hope) in the next one.

I haven't seen you playing since you reported the fog of war bug ShiftZ. Waiting for that particular fix?

Hoping for the addition of more options as well. Things like turn off spawn Events. There is a topic on how it makes things "too hard" or "too annoying" but my friends and I found it unbalances the game as it provides huge influxes of mana and gold. Few games now I have been casting high level spells costing over 100 mana every turn despite having only 1 city devoted to mana production and negative mana income. I could afford to thanks to 3 events in a row, each about 10 turns apart, in which the main reward on every nest was a few hundred mana. I topped over 5K mana at one point.

Good idea. Maybe it could be a better communication platform than this forum is, too.

Ok good folks,
You can start posting your ranked games here:

https://docs.google.com/a/swrve.com...mkey=dGRnNnhZNEdjVkhNNGwtVzNKZkdiQmc6MQ#gid=0

for the moment, only 1v1 duels are supported.

This is a great idea. I have to admit I've already played over 20 1v1 games and I can't remember the names of all my opponents, but I've won 15 and only lost 5.

Sincerely,
The Vault Dweller

so have we all
