Title: NA1 Events. Public LB, Canceled Post if you want to continue in the future
Post by: Thunderstormer on April 15, 2016, 05:13:57 am
This thread is for the variety of events NA1 has hosted over the years and will possibly host in the future.  This thread also serves as a way to codify the rules for the public.

I will start with the events we do the most.  The mini events.  The Linebattle stuff will be below the mini events section.   These are events that  normally last a single map and have their own special rules on top of the regular na1 rules.(na1 rules can be found here.  https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/index.php?topic=2746.0 )  Normally they are done on the spot rather than planned ahead.  We can however set a time up ahead of time where people can plan around it.  You can suggest a time for one of the various events and if it works out, we can give it a go on that date.These events are but not limited to partisani only, cav only, and boat battles.

Rules for the partisani event.
Spoiler
  • The server rules are still in effect as always.
  • Everyone will be required to go partisan (no militia) with one exception.
  • 1 general will be allowed per team as what is an angry mob without a leader?
  • Admins will handle non partisans at their own discretion.  This can include slays or possibly having the person put away/drop their infantry musket (bayonet). If you see a bayonet on the ground, do not pick it up.
  • Do not teamwound or teamkill non partisanis.  Notify an admin so we can take care of it.
  • You are allowed to use whatever partisan weapons you spawn with or happen to find on the ground.  Using the general's sword is allowed.  Yes, you are allowed to fire your guns.
     
[close]
Cav only
Spoiler
  • Server rules are still in effect.  I made a map that replaces ambush fog that is cav only.
  • Any class of cav is allowed.
  • Certain classes will have their limit changed to make it more fun: dragoons to 10% and lancers 20%.
  • You are asked to stay on your horse and remount when possible.  If the round is almost over and they are dismounted, you can dismount to finish the round faster.
  • Do not to go camp in the corner or the rocks and play infantry by going dragoon.  You can use them as cover if you are dismounted.
  • While I don't want to remove the various units that provide buffs, people may use them to delay/troll. Do not be surprised if they are turned off for the event.
[close]
Boat battles.
Spoiler
  • Server rules are in effect as always.  I made 2 maps(1 on naval battle and one on minden morning), one with and one without and island.  These maps have the small boats you normally see and not the big one.  The  big one has and causes too many issues to be viable for pub play.
  • Because this is just boat-on-boat fights (unless there is an island) and not a pirate-only event, you can go whatever class you want.  You are encouraged to go pirate.
  • You are not to stay in spawn.  There are plenty of boats to use for both teams.  Camping the spawn ruins the whole point of having a boat battle.  Boats also respawn over time so if you are AFK and the round is still going, use one of them.
  • The person who drives the boat is first come, first served. If sharing is becoming too much of an issue, then it will be like the arty rule.  (You have to give it to someone else the next round should someone want it.)
  • sappers are allowed to try and sink enemy ships.
[close]

There are other possible mini events like pirates only, infantry only line battle, and rockets vs. partisans.  These happen so rarely that they aren't really worth writing out. (If we do a pirate boat battle, you are expected to follow the rules for both.) You can basically guess the rules by reading the rules for the other mini events.  I am also open to hearing new ideas for mini events.  Just keep in mind the NA1 rules and your average pub.  Some events may be too intensive for them to do it.


As for the possible NA1 line battle. (Not a mini event)

NA1 RULES WILL STILL BE IN EFFECT UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE.  THIS IS YOUR WARNING. (na1 rules can be found here.  https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/index.php?topic=2746.0 )



Edit to make it clear.  This event is open to EVERYONE.  You do not need to apply.  I just want to see a certain amount of people committed to going. 
 

GENERAL EVENT RULES
  • All regular NA1 rules will be enforced. Any behaviour that would get you banned any other day of the week on NA1 will still get you banned during the linebattle.
  • All units must maintain some semblance of cohesion.
  • Pistols are considered melee weapons for the purpose of the rules.
  • Lone soldiers may not attack another unit unless continuing a charge.
  • Event admins may order everybody to charge in order to speed up a round. Shooting is not allowed after that point.
  • If fewer than five (5) remain on a team, formation rules will be waived.
  • Scouting is permitted, but do not use this as an excuse to rambo.
  • You do not have to be in a line to fire from a house.  If you are outside shooting in, you must be in a proper line
  • Follow any instruction posted in global admin chat. Admin and event rule complaints go to Thunderstormer on the forums, not in all chat on the server. General NA1 rule complaints go to Vincenzo on the forums, not in all chat on the server. The server is not your soapbox.
  • Regiments that have trouble following the rules or break the rules en masse will be punished.
  • Admins reserve the right to change the event rules at any time.
[close]

INFANTRY RULES
  • This section applies to regular line infantry, foot guard, marines, line militia, partizani and, unless otherwise noted, UK 51st, French 15e and Austrian Grenzers
  • Must be in something resembling a stationary line of three (3) or more to fire
  • Proper spacing for infantry is less than one (1) avatar's width
  • May only crouch if not in combat or in the front rank of a multiple rank line
  • If reduced to less than three soldiers, a unit must either charge or immediately join another line. The remaining soldiers may not ambush another line and may only charge if sighted by the line they intend to charge.
  • A unit may include one (1) officer and a limited assortment of musicians and/or sergeants
  • Grenzers may not spawn with rifles unless otherwise noted
[close]

SKIRMISHER RULES
  • This section applies to riflemen as well as UK 51st, French 15e and Austrian Grenzers who are skirmishers for the event
  • No more than fifteen (15) skirmishers may wield firearms at any given time on a team
  • Must be in a "formation" including three (3) or more to fire
  • Proper spacing for riflemen is five (5) avatars' widths; for musket-wielding skirmishers, it is three (3)
  • May crouch at any time
  • A unit may include one (1) officer and a limited assortment of musicians and/or sergeants.
[close]

CAVALRY RULES
  • This section applies to hussars, lancers, dragoons and heavy cavalry
  • No more than fifteen (15) cavalry may fight for a team at any given time
  • A unit may include two (2) officers. These count toward the maximum limit.
  • A unit may include musicians and flag bearers. These do not count toward the maximum limit until they engage.
  • Dismounted cavalry are considered light infantry
  • Cav does not have to dismount due to low numbers.  Lone cav are allowed to attack on their own
  • Dragoons must be stationary to fire. Proper spacing is three avatars' width
  • Cav are to try and fight as a cohesive unit.  Lone cav running off and fighting from the rest of the pack will be considered ramboing.
[close]

ARTILLERY RULES
  • This section applies to artillery crews and their accompanying foot soldiers
  • No more than ten (10) individual may make up a crew. Includes rankers, trains, officers, sappers and artillery guard. Excess artillery guard must act as line infantry.
  • May spawn two guns (howitzers, cannons, or one of each). May spawn two rockets in place of one gun.
  • May fire within five paces of an active gun or rocket (one that is being loaded, aimed or fired)
  • May crouch
  • Artillery guard not near an active gun are considered line infantry.
[close]

For now, we have no rules regarding generals.  We may not allow them unless stated otherwise at the event.   They may end up being used as some sort of rallying point for the pubs.  Not all of the pubs will have teamspeak.

and a general note i want to make abundantly clear.

Personally, I want this to be as free as possible.  I want to be lenient as possible where possible.  The better everyone cooperates and follow the rules, the smoother it goes.  The pubs will more than likely have trouble at first and need some guidance. With that being said, regiments/players attending agree to follow these rules.  It is your job to let your members know about them and to ensure that you and they follow them.  Ignorance is not an excuse.  The rules are pretty simple.  Follow these and the regular NA1 rules and you will be fine.  Do not teamkill and teamwound, even between and after rounds. Do not use slurs or names with slurs in them.   While many events allow these or do not care, this is NA1.  It has a use outside of the event, unlike other servers.  I will not allow a double standard to develop where breaking X rule was allowed 5 minutes ago and now it's not.  It will cause too much trouble. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them. If you think slurs, teamkilling, whatever should be allowed, talk to Vince.  Do not bother arguing with me or my staff about it.  If you wish to make an admin complaint, send to it to me via PM here on the forums.  Do not argue with the admins in-server.  Suggestions about the event rules are welcome.  Either talk to me about it here or via PM.  Keep it civil.

This event, if it happens, is done by the admins for the community. Do not abuse the admins, as they are volunteering to do this.  The more you cooperate, the better it goes.  It is not easy admining an event, and some of my staff have not admined a linebattle before.  It will be a learning process for quite a few of us.  Depending on the week, I may not be here and other admins will step up and take care of the event.  During the event, it will be best if the Regiment leader or the officer in charge does the talking for the regiment to the admin staff.  I will ignore spam from the rank and file regarding an issue.(and spam is against the rules as well)  Be sure to check your lines for any bush pirates.  We will probably have our share of them or just normal trolls.  They will be banned.

About yourself: My name is Dan as you can see. I prefer long walks on the beach and cuddling with my cat. While my cat is excellent and better than all other cats, I can recognize that some people cannot accept that my cat is excellent.

Why you would be a good admin: I would be a good admin because I am able to have fun but be able to be serious when the situation requires. As a result, hopefully I will be able to nurture and promote a playful and cheerful environment on NA1

Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: Of course, this is like a big reason for me signing up.

Location/Timezone: Utah, United States. Mountain Standard Time (MST).

Applying for (Ts/Na1 or EU1): NA1 (LB)

Regiments: United States Marine Corps (USMC).

About yourself: I am a history fanatic. Varying from the Crusades, to the American Revolution, Napoleonic Wars,  Civil War, WW2, etc. I tend to research about many different subjects, whenever I have questions about them. I also find enjoyment in finding both sides of an argument, tending me to have more fair judgement. I'm a Utah cowboy that loves orange rock, and shooting my revolvers/rifles/shotguns (Just to piss off Obama). I love to slice people with my trusty hussar. I also love to get along with the NW community, and it saddens me how much it has been dying. And if any of you know me, you would know I enjoy American politics very much.

Why you would be a good admin: I have a fair amount of admin experience. I'm not bias, and love to get along with the NW community. I'd be willing to do any tasks you guys throw at me, even if it's sitting out and monitoring for the whole game.  I love to attend these line battles because my regiment doesn't do anything on Thursday, so I've been able to attend almost every single event.

Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: Definitely, I would also be willing to go spectator for a couple rounds to help admin if any of the admins need help monitoring. That, and it's the only reason I applied.

Previous Experience (if any): Owner of BBG_TropicalDeath_NA, admin on  BBG_BotSurvival_NA, BBG_Public_NA2, BBG_Public_NA3, BBG_FullInvasion_NA. I have also hosted my own events before. If you acknowledge experience from other games, I was an admin on 2 Garry's mod servers, and a Just Cause 2: Multiplayer server.

About yourself: I've been playing MnB for years now, I've attended countless events, hardcore and others. I'm pretty well known around the community, some good, others not so much. I was pushing for this event to happen for a while before it got started and was happy to see it up and running. I think it provides a great opportunity for pubs to attend a fun (semi-relaxed) event without the commitment to a regiment.
Why you would be a good admin: This may be biased, but for some reason I feel as if I'm always in a different area or scenario than the others participating in the event. I could be wrong. I know the general rules to be enforced and won't mind enforcing them equally. (yes even on "friends")
Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: I'm only applying for the event, however if chosen I doubt I'd be able to help out in the upcoming week due to exams.
Previous Experience (if any): I ran a server for a month which was quite enjoyable. A funny story to go along with it is that I accidentally banned around 5 people with the ban hammer because I didn't think it actually worked.

Applying for (Ts/Na1 or EU1): NA1 Pub Event

Regiments: Current: The Silahtar Guard. Past regiments in order: 14th West Buckinghamshire, 1a Svea Livgarde, Moskovskii Grenaderskie Polki, and Pontifical Swiss Guard.

About yourself: Fun fact about me is that I am a triplet. First set of triplets to be born at the hospital I was born at, and second set of triplets to have Court of Eagle on the same day in my city. I am a Boy Scout and I am an Eagle Scout. I’m currently in college to be a software programmer. I do play the Trumpet, Trombone, and Keyboard. And I love strategy games like EU4 and Axis & Allies.

Why you would be a good admin: I applied for admin for NA1 over a year ago and from two NA1 admins whom I trust, I knew I was being considered and talked about. Unfortunately, I applied when NA1 just added a bunch of new admins. NA1 is my server to go. I will always join when it has players. I know all the rules from slurs to blocking doorways to glitches to exploits and more. I do know people can use the name LittleGuy, as long as everyone know it’s not the admin [FH]_LittleGuy. And ISIS or terrorist related names are banned because of me. An ISIS regiment with names like suicide bomber was on the server. Messaged my go-to-admin-when-no-admins-are-on about it and he defended it with freedom of speech and told me to take it to LittleGuy. I did and claimed it as hatred speech. I know the NA1 rules better than most.

When it comes to knowing pub event rules, I read the rules to my regiment before every pub event including the specialty rules depending on what we voted for. My regiment has done all infantry, skirms, cav, and arty in this event. I know the rules for all of them. NA1 Pub Event is dedicated for my regiment to play as a specialty role. As a specialty role, you get attention from some pubs. Some pubs are perfectly fine, others do their own thing, and some just troll. As cav I’ve seen pubs teamwound and attack us, and run off into the distance to Rambo whoever. As cav, I’ve seen enemy Rambo cav randomly attack us. Last week as arty, a pub loaded a canister shot and shot at a friendly line killing one teammate. Last week as arty, my regiment spotted the USMC using 3 cannons early on and no admin could see us in chat. As arty 3 weeks ago, another regiment had a sapper building defenses for them and arty couldn’t build anything. How many times have I went to Yooper because of something happening during the event?

One more reason because I feel like I’m writing a book here, is that I understand it is a pub event. I believe this happened during the 2nd pub event ever but while I was in the PSG, we were FOL/FOC so badly during one charge that our leader was upset and ordered to fuck them and FOC back. I yelled don’t and we’re better than that. People need to realize that it’s a pub event. I tell my regiment this from time to time that it is a pub event. We will see some rule breaking; someone might FOL/FOC on you and kill you. Don’t complain about it in chat. Pubs won’t know better. Regiments not active in the forums won’t know better. It’s a pub event  and many people fail to realize that.

Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: More focused on NA1 Pub Event but sure.

In order for the Na1 lb to happen, i need to see a least a decent amount of people commit to going to the first event.  If you are interested, just post here and give a good guess how many people you may end up bringing.(how many people a regiment may being may be altered if the event is not relatively full.  but that is something that will be decided later)

If not that many people are interested, a smaller mini event may happen or the whole idea can be shelved until it is wanted.  The mini events will still continue on nonetheless. 

Edit to make it clear.  This event is open to EVERYONE.  You do not need to apply.  I just want to see a certain amount of people committed to going.

It may be. The longer the event lasts, the better they will be as more people gain experience.   Pubs for the most part will follow the leader.  there will be a few who want to play like its your average pub game.(or trolls)  They will need some guidance. (which is why regiments who attend can help by following the rules and setting an example so the admins can focus on the pubs) I have seen 50+ pubs lines in NA1 before just during regular play over the years.  All you need is something for them to rally around.


and for the most part, the rules are simple for your average ranker.  Just get in line, fire, and charge when told to do so.  most of the other rules can be ignored by your common ranker as they need only concern themselves with following the rules of their respective class.

So, i am trying to get a list to figure out those who are actually attending and what their pop may be.

This is just a guess so let me know if i need correction or you want to be counted.  Like i said before.  This is open to all.  You do not need to be approved to attend, i just want  to know how many we will have roughly to see if it is worth doing.

Rddt, 10-15

Kiri 10

Thundersnow  the universe?

Xethos, his conscripts and maybe mascot.  3-12?

The 1st Battalion, Royal Regiment of Artillery would love to attend  unknown..?

PSG 10-15

7te 5-10?

63e prob 15-25

Other regiments that may come along.  63e, IV, and PLG.   How many they may bring, idk.(IV is an army, so they could bring more)  if the pop isnt too high, the amount allowed per reg will be increased for that event.

Range 53-87

There are a few regiments who have not posted here that have expressed some interest but idk if they will attend.  Same goes for some of you who posted here.   IDK how many you have in your reg or how many you will bring if you do want to come. 

i would not be suprised if quite a few regiments showed up without posting here.  i would also not be suprised if a lot of pubs joined throughout the hour.  odds are some trolls will also joined, they too will be banned. 


I would like to try and do this on this Thurs if possible should we get enough people.(personally i would like to see at least 75 committed people.)


and, if the event is happening this Thurs, I might as well open up sign ups for specialist.  Again there is no guarantee that we will have them or all of them but in case we do, they are now open.    I'll post who gets them in one of the "reserved" posts around the day before or the day of if i can.

I could definitely see at least some 63e members show up for the linebattle. The time is right after our normal event, so I would expect some to be interested. However, I also expect that if we made a regiment-wide announcement of this, over 15 people would attend (might have to bump up the regiment cap).

So the new range i have is roughly 53-87 people.  This is not counting pubs, those who will attend and haven't posted, or those who showed interest here but never gave me a # of possibles attendance. 

I will agree with both what Siwi and Gen said.  I don't want any one regiment or army dominating the event.   I want a regiment/army to bring enough to where the have a good line/whatever but do not make up to much of any one team.  With that said, unless there is a sudden spike in those who will attend, i'll probably let the regiment cap go up to 20-25 people for this thurs.   That way the event has a little higher pop.  If the event is near full, then the cap will be kept as is.

The point of the cap is to keep it fair.  and my view on it unless the event is full/near full, is for it to be somewhat loosely enforced in a sense.  if the cap is at 15, but you have 16, you may be allowed to keep the extra person.  (Admins still reserve the right to remove someone if a group is over their cap.  even if the event is not full )  i think that is fair to everyone involved.   I personally would like to avoid going down each line every round counting people, so the more everyone cooperates, the better.

So it is this thursday, 4/21 at 9pm EST?

If so, PSG will be attending. Not sure of numbers, but 10-15 ish



Yes, this Thurs at 9 est.



I keep harping on this one point but that is to make it clear.  There will probably be a lot of pubs/people, either at the first event or over the weeks should this go on, that may not know what is going on or what to do.  They will need a lot of guidance.  the more people help, the better it will be.   There will probably be a lot of purple text to get the people to the proper place.  We will probably have some trolls, they will be banned.  Regiment leaders, let an admin know if someone is impersonating as a member of your regiment.


I will clarify that recruitment is allowed. 

- A regiment may advertise once per map, regardless of how many rounds are played on it. This applies to advertisements, both general and individual. This also includes messages for an entire group like an Army etc,.

and specialist slots are open should people want them. 

i would recommend getting there 10 min early so the teams can be sorted and the pubs can be drilled.(very very basic drill)  Do not teamkill, teamwound, or troll during this time.   

if you are banned and not one of the very few people that are never to be unbanned, post an unban request in the proper area by tomorrow to have a chance of being unbanned for the event.  If you post it on Thurs, odds are i wont have time to look into it.

I bet you'll have a lot (maybe more than 15? That's a lot these days, right?) of pubs. I posted about it to the Mount & Blade subreddit, so you may get some draw from there!

DK what the pop of the event will be weeks down the road assuming it still continues.   We will have to play it by ear.  If the event is full, i would rather not have one regiment take up such a large amount of the pop compared to everyone else.   Leaving room for other regiments to fill their rosters or for pubs to join is a good thing imo.   

# of pubs?  No clue.  Could be 5-15.  Could be 20-30+ for all i know.(if it is high, we may make 2 pub lines)  Depends on how many are on when it starts+stay and how many join throughout the lb.  if the event is good, more may join over the weeks.     imagine during a steam sale would be the best time.  getting so many new people experienced into what a linebattle is may help keep people interested in the event.   I would imagine there is a good chunk of the NW population who has never played in a linebattle.

Hey Thunder, squirts messaged me about this, no problem, we will only bring whatever max is there, we dont intend on hindering the entire event with 63e.  I think if it does get populated with the regiments, it will def attract around 30-40 pubs

Yea, i want all the regiments that can fit in to have a chance to play and recruit and allow the pubs to experience a lb.  The cap effects all regs who have more than 15(well when that is the cap) which i think is a good # for a cap.

There are still specialist slots open.  If you do not sign up for it, do not assume you will be getting it.   If there are slots open by lb time, ill ask around.  If no one takes it, then a team will be down said specialist role until someone takes it.

arty is filled. 



For future reference.   Normally i would wait till the day before or so before i decide but seeing as slots have been open for several days, it is basically first come first serve.(granted it hasn't been a full week since this was posted)  Specialist roles are listed in the 3rd post. 

If you are a specialist, make sure you know your rules.  If all the regiments attending can do their best to follow them, it makes it easier for the admins to take care of the pubs(they will probably take up the bulk of the attention at first) and trolls.   

about 10-15 min. before i will switch it to TDM.  Do not teamkill, teamwound, troll, etc,. during that time.   use it as a warm up.   eventually during that time i will assign teams.

Regiments are encouraged (but not required) to use the official FSE Teamspeak (ts.22nd.eu) for the purpose of coordination.  It will also be helpful for any curious pubs who may want to join your line.

There will be no PW as the pubs wouldn't have a way to join.   I will be in that ts with the pub line.  We may end up having 2 pub lines should enough pubs join.(how many pubs we will have, idk.  could be 5, could be 30 for all i know.)

In general was good, only minor problems really. Perhaps enforcing a 15% or 10% class limit for the specialists? That could be difficult if pubs are taking specialists slots so regiments cant use them, but yeah, it was fun

I would support a hard limit on the slots instead of trusting pubs and regiments not to go over the limit. Rules for specialities were fine, it's just that getting charged by thirty-five cavalry was not what I had in mind.

2 issues that if solved, would go a long way in helping the event.   Getting the pubs on to the right team/line, and getting the pubs in ts.   I had around 7 people out of all of those pubs in ts.(even with several messages about it)  So, i had to type commands.(not a good thing when you are trying to take the enemy's position.)  Another issue tied in is i am the only one really able to lead the pubs currently.(having the pubs in ts would resolve this, as someone else could communicate and take over or just in general lead)

With the event being open to all, and therefore no pw, anyone will join.  with people constantly leaving and joining, getting them to the proper place isn't easy.(even with constant messages in admin chat)  This is just the nature of the event and server and something we will all have to accept.  We will continue to try and get people to the right place, by message and possibly force.

Anyways, for the first ever NA1 lb and my first time hosting a lb, i think it went alright. It was chaotic.  and while there are some downsides to it being chaotic, i thought it went pretty well.  It has a na1 flavor to it that you don't really see at other lbs imo.  Hopefully as more pubs gain experience with how lbs work, they will become more wieldy.  Hopefully there were a few pubs who wanted to join a regiment.  I know 1 regiment did pick up an app.


I think i will leave class limits on next time.  Leave a few extra slots in case an unknowing pub takes it, that way the regiment that should have it doesn't get screwed over.  If you can, let admins know if someone is not where they should be.

and what are your thoughts on medium maps?   they felt a little small, but at the same time we did manage to get 9 quick rounds in.(even tho we started 5 min later than i wanted)

and what are your thoughts on specialist by themselves.  Ignoring the pubs breaking the specialist limit/rules, how do you think they did and do they need any tweaks? I thought i saw both cav, 63e skirms(didnt see  how good the LIR did and there was the issue of somehow having 2 skirms on the same team.  they also didnt sign up for it but meh), and it seemed like both artys did ok.(this is what i saw. i was fairly busy so perhaps i am off) 


The partisani event after was pretty good.   

again, let me know if your thoughts on this.  constructive posts are welcome.

i guess i should also ask, how many of you would come back next week?  is this something we should do every other week?  is this something we should just do every now and then?

A limit on specialists sounds great and is much appreciated, those cav and skirm swarms were hard to handle.
Medium maps were fine with me personally. I think it made combat happen faster, it prevented trolls from hiding at the corners of large maps and got dead people back in the game quicker since the rounds were fast.
As far as leading a pub line, I think you will have to gather non regimental leaders to join your line as backup officers or else find a reg leader whose reg isnt attending. I would suggest that, but another option to throw out there is having the pubs just join regimental lines altogether.

Post by: Kirigaya on April 23, 2016, 12:54:50 am
I thought the event went REALLY well considering that was its first time and the number of players that were there. So great job on that!

As far as the medium maps I thought they made it much more intense and fast paced, but then again having the enemy cav get to your spawn before you get fully assembled (probably only happened to us tbh) was a little disheartening. Specialist limit defintely needs considered and maybe making a few maps to use, because pubs won't want to hang around if you have to go through four or five maps just find one that isn't completely bad.

Thanks for putting on the event, and I wish you all the luck in the future!

Balances kept going off-tangent for each team, specials need to be at a nice ratio to line; too much cavalry on both sides. Dunno why there were two skirms on one team (63e & LIR, guess one didnt sign up hmmmmm). Arty seemed fine. Also note there is a total number balance and a unit/entity balance; it seemed like we had ok balance at some points; but if you looked closer, one team had 3 crazy-large lines and the other had 2 medium/small lines. At official regiment events, you could see a nice 90 v 90 balance, but one team would have like 6 lines and the other team had 3, gotta try one's best to balance that portion as good as possible.

Yea, balance was back and forth.  part of the problem was the pubs that kept joining kept joining the wrong team.  As an example, Had just say 8 pubs swapped over, then the balance would of been fairly even a few of the rounds.(tho there were rounds where it was fairly even)  You also pointed out one of the issues with balancing the teams(regiment sizes)

Balance is something we will try and work on.   With that being said, we had 2/3 or so fairly nice sized regiments show up late,(after 9 est) making it more difficult to gauge the balance of the teams.   Showing up 10 or so min before will help with this. As will making sure your(as in everyone) regiment doesn't do anything to distract the admins.  meaning, if the admins say stop killing other regiments, that means stop. 

i didn't count the rounds lost or won throughout the event, but i felt it was fairly even trade for the most part.  No one team dominated the entire event which is a plus.

Already talked about the issue with a lot of pubs joining and playing whatever class.(mainly cav)  We are working on trying to find a way to make it easier to get them where the need to be.  one issue tho, is that if you allow pubs to join your line but they dont have tags(which is fine), the admins wont know if they are just a random pub or playing with you.  So sitting there mass swapping pubs is not really viable nor really doable. 

We are working on having more pub leaders and getting them in ts.  should any of you out there that want to help with that, let me know.   i dont like spamming admin chat.  I detest seeing constant purple text.  With this being open to all, it is the only viable way to communicate where it sticks out.  All chat doesn't really do it.  So, hopefully with more pubs being in ts with more pub leaders, i wont have to give commands in admin chat.  It is not fun for me or for anyone else, even if it may be necessary.  There will probably be a lot trial and error over the weeks.  Hopefully the pubs are not in a rambunctious mood at the time of the lb as that will make things difficult.

no idea.  never played on that server.



I do want to ask, does changing the name remove a server from your favorites list? I have heard it go both ways and never really payed attention to when other servers did it.(rather not just test it)  Renaming it to NA_...._Public Linebattle may help people joining know what is going on.   

and i would like to have answers on this if you haven't already.

I am pretty sure it is only removed if you change the server name in the server files and not the admin panel. I could be wrong, though.

Just checked on my servers cause I wasn't sure, changing the name didn't remove it from my favorites list, so I think its good. Most likely saves the IP address of the server
That would make sense, but idk.

I am pretty sure it is only removed if you change the server name in the server files and not the admin panel. I could be wrong, though.
Tho this may be true as well.

I will give it a shot by changing it in server next time.   If it is not on your favorite list, you know why.

and specialist slots are open for 4/28.

Eh, as long people want to do them and there are admins to admin it, i don't see why not.  With that being said, i am not sure if doing it every other week or not is better.  seems more people read this thread than chime in, which is fine, but doesn't always help.


But yea, we will try and do one this Thurs,  No idea how many will be there.  specialist will be lowered or removed depending on the pop.(hopefully it doesn't come to this. we did have 200 last time)

i'll go over who gets specialist by wed night/thurs.  that way everyone can sign up and we go from there.  tho the later you sign up, the less inclined i am to give it to you.  meaning if you sign up a few hours or a half day  before the lb, odds are i will give it to the regiment/group who asked for it days ago.  the exception to this would be if there were slots open and no one signed up for them.

and if you have a good idea to help the event run smoother, let us know.   just try and keep in mind the limitations and realities we face with doing an event like this that is open to all.

I want to bring up the idea of using specialists in a rotation method. That is, no single group or regiment has 'ownership' of a specialist type for the whole life of an organized event. Every week, or two weeks, a specialist slot that was occupied by one group or regiment could be a given opportunity for another group or regiment to try their hand at a particular specialist type. Provided of course, the specialist reservations are not already taken by a different group first already. Light infantry, riflemen (the skirmishers), cavalry, artillery and even the sapper can all be classified as specialists. This may, (but does not always) prevent stagnation of an event feeling like the same-old-same-old every week. The specialist units used by the same groups always can be a major turn off for new players or groups/regiments. Thoughts?

No one regiment will lock up a specialist slot or slots.  i plan on giving a fair shot to everyone who applies for one as much as i can.   if there are a lot of regiments going for the same specialist role, then a rotation may work.  as of right now, only the same 3 from last week have applied.  while i haven't decided who gets what yet, unless more people sign up, i do not see a reason to deny them it.

Fair enough. If no one else desires the specialist slots, then it is logical.

lb is in 45 min or so.  still got one skirm slot open.  we will modify specialist as necessary during the event.

ill be changing the name to nw....na1 public linebattle.  it should be on your favorite list still.  if its not, just look for a server with the appropriate name.

try and get there 10-15 min early so i can assign teams and do basic drill with the pubs.  we will be harsher with getting pubs on the right team and basically making it mandatory for them to be in ts.  they dont have to speak, just hear the commands. 

reg leaders, if you have a pub vol with you but they are not wearing tags, let an admin(mainly me) know so we dont swap them accidentally.

Thanks to everyone who came, on time or late.  by the end the event was pretty full(180?)  even tho we were missing a few lines.  and thanks siwi's face for taking a bullet for me. 

wont be there for the next event(title updated) but it sounds like the staff will be able to cover it.  i'll still handle the stuff here.  specialist are open.


a reminder that you DO NOT have to sign up to attend this event.  It is open to all.  If you show up, you are expected to follow the rules.  if you and 5 friends decide to show up and make your own line, that is fine.   

sign ups are only required for specialist.   if the lb is fairly full and a regiment doesn't show up to take their specialist slot, it can be given to someone else.(like it was today with the 1stRRA)  be there 10-15 minutes early so we can assign teams and start at the top of the hour.

Was about to respond to one of your guys PMs but i can take care of it here.   you don't need to sign up to attend.  This event is open to all.  you only need to sign up for specialist roles.

you are still welcome to post here should you have any ideas, concerns, or just want to post about the events in general.  If you want to post here telling the staff you will be attending(and how many you may bring), that is fine by me. 

with 3 good size lines missing from the last event, we still managed to get 180 or so people.(from what i understand, all 3 still want to attend the event at least every now and then if not weekly.)

just a reminder, try and get there 10 or min early so we can assign teams and make sure everything is ready to go.

Specialist slots are still open.  I'll try and update this sometime tomorrow afternoon. 

Also a reminder, you don't need to sign up to be at this event.   Just show up with your group and follow the rules.   let an admin know your group if it is unusual(as in a mix of random groups or people) so you can be assigned a team.   

try and show up 10-15 min early so the event can start on time.

Thanks to all who came tonight.  Still pretty good attendance overall.  Thanks to rddt for taking the other cav slot.  After the switch of a few regiments, the rounds seemed to been closer.  (Would of been better had 1 reg not backed out at the last moment.)


I'll see if I can post some pics of the pub line later.

Check the 2nd post in this thread.   I put it there just in case we decide to add new LB admins.(not regular admin staff)  It is not a guarantee we will be using them or will be adding new admins.  I would rather have applications on hand in case we do need more admins rather than having to wait when the time comes.

About yourself: My name is Dan as you can see. I prefer long walks on the beach and cuddling with my cat. While my cat is excellent and better than all other cats, I can recognize that some people cannot accept that my cat is excellent.

Why you would be a good admin: I would be a good admin because I am able to have fun but be able to be serious when the situation requires. As a result, hopefully I will be able to nurture and promote a playful and cheerful environment on NA1

Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: Of course, this is like a big reason for me signing up.

Previous Experience (ifany): Multiple Tournaments and events in NW as well as admin on Multiple PW servers

Community name: USMC_Sgt_Ze_Mormon, Ze_Mormon, [BBG]Ze_Mormon

Steam Name: [BBG] Ze_Mormon

Age: 16 (almost 17)

Location/Timezone: Utah, United States. Mountain Standard Time (MST).

Applying for (Ts/Na1 or EU1): NA1 (LB)

Regiments: United States Marine Corps (USMC).

About yourself: I am a history fanatic. Varying from the Crusades, to the American Revolution, Napoleonic Wars,  Civil War, WW2, etc. I tend to research about many different subjects, whenever I have questions about them. I also find enjoyment in finding both sides of an argument, tending me to have more fair judgement. I'm a Utah cowboy that loves orange rock, and shooting my revolvers/rifles/shotguns (Just to piss off Obama). I love to slice people with my trusty hussar. I also love to get along with the NW community, and it saddens me how much it has been dying. And if any of you know me, you would know I enjoy American politics very much.

Why you would be a good admin: I have a fair amount of admin experience. I'm not bias, and love to get along with the NW community. I'd be willing to do any tasks you guys throw at me, even if it's sitting out and monitoring for the whole game.  I love to attend these line battles because my regiment doesn't do anything on Thursday, so I've been able to attend almost every single event.

Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: Definitely, I would also be willing to go spectator for a couple rounds to help admin if any of the admins need help monitoring. That, and it's the only reason I applied.

Previous Experience (if any): Owner of BBG_TropicalDeath_NA, admin on  BBG_BotSurvival_NA, BBG_Public_NA2, BBG_Public_NA3, BBG_FullInvasion_NA. I have also hosted my own events before. If you acknowledge experience from other games, I was an admin on 2 Garry's mod servers, and a Just Cause 2: Multiplayer server.

Thanks for reading,

sounds good.  you can make your own line/go specialist(would have to sign up tho) if you have enough.  just make sure you know the rules.  or you can join the pub line.(or vl with someone else)

not sure what the pop will be tonight as i believe one of the regular regiments disbanded that usually brought 10+.  curious to see when warband will be featured at the top of the steam page as that will be the peak of new players.(and consequently, lots of noobs who don't know what a line or pub is.)

Sounds good.  Even small lines can be the best.( i have lead many over the years)

Depending on when warband is featured, we may have to spend more time explaining some stuff to the new people. 

and yea, no better time to recruit than during a steam sale.  As a reminder to all, you can recruit during the event.(same recruitment rule as always)  unlike other servers, anyone can recruit on na1.

 i would say we had 170+ at one time during the event when i checked.  i seen a few people asked to join regiments, so hopefully some of you got some.    thanks to everyone who came.  we had a lot of new people there and despite that, i think it went alright.  the pubs got better as it went on.

I have decided that we will give medics a try.

You can be a medic by being a sapper and hitting a teammate or their horse with the construction hammer.  You do not need to be a sapper to heal, but you will need to get a hammer and having someone go sapper is the only way.(or steal from someone's dead body)

Each regiment, whether they bring 5 or 25, will be allowed to have 1 medic each(max) should they want one.   These medics will not be allowed to build defences for their line.  Sappers can only build defences for arty.  Sappers may be slayed instantly if they are building defences for their lines and further action may be taken against the line if necessary.(like destroying the defences)  medics will not be allowed to pull a juice kelly and blow up enemy lines.(the sapper with the arty could)  make sure your medics know this. 

do not abuse them or i will have to turn them off.    let me know if you have any questions about this.

well i thought the event went alright.  Could of been better imo granted my PoV is different from others.  There were a lot more pubs than we normally had and i think a fair amount of them were new to the game in general.(probably 30 more pubs than usual compared to the last few weeks)  not sure how many of them have played on na1 or even played on a server with friendly fire. 

i was expecting 150 or maybe 160, not 180-190.  some of the rounds were pretty close.(usually its who has the best meleers still alive)

i'll see if i can make some medium-large maps that are a quick dl to give a little more room to cav and arty to operate while keeping the rounds from lasting too long.(quicker rounds are good imo)

as always, let an admin know if someone is causing trouble.(in game or steam)  admins cant see everything and quite a few of them are busy leading.  i spent a few minutes babysitting arty on the 3rd map to try and cut down on some of the issues they were having.(or their team in general.  hence the god mode and revives)

glad you enjoyed the pubs playing with you.   :)



Pubs are allowed to tag along with any line/group as long as they follow the rules.(which includes the amount you are allowed for a specialist.)

 If you have any pubs playing with you, you can let me know so i don't swap them to the other team to the pub line or slay them.(hopefully i dont forget  :P)  or, if we do swap/slay them, you can let us know so we can undo it.(hopefully)   this is just  a general reminder, not directed at you. 

And we will have medics back next week.

Community name:Kiri
Steam Name:Mediocre Kiri
Age:19
Your In game ID(s):(hint, this the number that comes up every time you join NA1) 795934
Location/Timezone: EST
Applying for (Ts/Na1 or EU1): NA1 Linebattle Event
Regiments: 15e, 33e (briefly), Two_Seasons, 12th?, Leader of 1stSAO, been a merc for ages.
About yourself: I've been playing MnB for years now, I've attended countless events, hardcore and others. I'm pretty well known around the community, some good, others not so much. I was pushing for this event to happen for a while before it got started and was happy to see it up and running. I think it provides a great opportunity for pubs to attend a fun (semi-relaxed) event without the commitment to a regiment.
Why you would be a good admin: This may be biased, but for some reason I feel as if I'm always in a different area or scenario than the others participating in the event. I could be wrong. I know the general rules to be enforced and won't mind enforcing them equally. (yes even on "friends")
Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: I'm only applying for the event, however if chosen I doubt I'd be able to help out in the upcoming week due to exams.
Previous Experience (if any): I ran a server for a month which was quite enjoyable. A funny story to go along with it is that I accidentally banned around 5 people with the ban hammer because I didn't think it actually worked.

because xethos was cav and you were arty last week, i will let xethos be arty and you cav.  if you want to trade slots, talk to them about it and let me know(with the other reg if you want their slot or your group if you want to be a different specialist.)

medics will be on again, same rules as last time.(horses can be healed by medics)

added 4 random type maps to try out.  they will be a little bigger than the medium maps.

I am going to request the ban on godmode for admins or less use of them during the event. My line was behind a hill getting ready to advance forward. A pub in my line FOL’s twice at an enemy line. My line advances to charge until 10 seconds after the last FOL, Getty uses godmode. And we have an enemy charging us at the speed of light. Getty attacks the pub and left my regiment alone, but it stopped everyone in their tracks. Having an enemy charge you at the speed of light is distracting; everyone turns, looks, and stares, and everyone becomes wtf is happening, what is Getty doing, some of my members trying to attack Getty. We eventually got mowed down because everyone was still distracted.

This is my message to Getty and any admins or regiment leaders reading this. This is a pub event. You will see rule breaking from pubs every round. If you expect a pub event to have no rule breaking, you are a fool. Pubs won’t know better. Some regiments won’t know better. There will be rule breaking. Don’t expect the event to be perfect. Just don’t. You will have much more fun during a pub event. Using godmode for one pub who is FOLing your line is not necessary and unprofessional. There are many ways to handle the situation. Either remind them there is no FOL/FOC =Fire out of line/Fire on charge. Who knows, maybe the pub just joined and missed the other 20 times an admin have said it. It’s a possibility. Or use the admin tool. Never used it, never seen it, could be wrong, but apparently you can see their name and it helps you admin. Slay the pub and say no Firing out of line. Getty can’t do that during a 30v30? How can he handle a 100v100? I’m joking, Getty. Just poking at you. The last way to handle it is for the admin can just live with it. It’s a pub event after all. There will be some FOL and FOC. One pub FOLing is harmless compare to what other pubs do. In all seriousness, no Nr9 member died during the FOL and I completely disagree the use of godmode in the situation as my regiment took the blow by being distracted from it.

The IV Linebattle was the first event for me to use trusted regiment leaders to become admins to help moderate the linebattle. Two admins in spec can never see everything, but with the help of a few admins on the ground, everything becomes smoother and easier. However seeing my regiment leader having admin during the IV Linebattle, I can see some setbacks to the technique. They don’t give a shit about someone breaking the rules. They only care when the issue becomes conflict to their regiment. A regiment leader always want their regiment to have fun, always. I know this branches off my previous message and looks like against Getty but it proves how I feel towards regiment leaders having admin. The admins on NA1 Pub Event are separated. Thunderstormer organizing and watching the pubs. Getty watching over the Nr9. Savs would only watch over the 1stRddt if he comes back. RIP Savs. :(  I had Yooper watching for us. Whenever I had an issue, I would go to her on Steam. Unfortunately, she missed the past two events. I feel like every regiment needs a to-go admin because every admin is busy commanding and protecting their own regiment. And I can’t rely on Yooper forever so here is my admin application.

Location/Timezone: Missouri/Central Time (CST)
Applying for (Ts/Na1 or EU1): NA1 Pub Event

Regiments: Current: The Silahtar Guard. Past regiments in order: 14th West Buckinghamshire, 1a Svea Livgarde, Moskovskii Grenaderskie Polki, and Pontifical Swiss Guard.

About yourself: Fun fact about me is that I am a triplet. First set of triplets to be born at the hospital I was born at, and second set of triplets to have Court of Eagle on the same day in my city. I am a Boy Scout and I am an Eagle Scout. I’m currently in college to be a software programmer. I do play the Trumpet, Trombone, and Keyboard. And I love strategy games like EU4 and Axis & Allies.

Why you would be a good admin: I applied for admin for NA1 over a year ago and from two NA1 admins whom I trust, I knew I was being considered and talked about. Unfortunately, I applied when NA1 just added a bunch of new admins. NA1 is my server to go. I will always join when it has players. I know all the rules from slurs to blocking doorways to glitches to exploits and more. I do know people can use the name LittleGuy, as long as everyone know it’s not the admin [FH]_LittleGuy. And ISIS or terrorist related names are banned because of me. An ISIS regiment with names like suicide bomber was on the server. Messaged my go-to-admin-when-no-admins-are-on about it and he defended it with freedom of speech and told me to take it to LittleGuy. I did and claimed it as hatred speech. I know the NA1 rules better than most.

When it comes to knowing pub event rules, I read the rules to my regiment before every pub event including the specialty rules depending on what we voted for. My regiment has done all infantry, skirms, cav, and arty in this event. I know the rules for all of them. NA1 Pub Event is dedicated for my regiment to play as a specialty role. As a specialty role, you get attention from some pubs. Some pubs are perfectly fine, others do their own thing, and some just troll. As cav I’ve seen pubs teamwound and attack us, and run off into the distance to Rambo whoever. As cav, I’ve seen enemy Rambo cav randomly attack us. Last week as arty, a pub loaded a canister shot and shot at a friendly line killing one teammate. Last week as arty, my regiment spotted the USMC using 3 cannons early on and no admin could see us in chat. As arty 3 weeks ago, another regiment had a sapper building defenses for them and arty couldn’t build anything. How many times have I went to Yooper because of something happening during the event?

One more reason because I feel like I’m writing a book here, is that I understand it is a pub event. I believe this happened during the 2nd pub event ever but while I was in the PSG, we were FOL/FOC so badly during one charge that our leader was upset and ordered to fuck them and FOC back. I yelled don’t and we’re better than that. People need to realize that it’s a pub event. I tell my regiment this from time to time that it is a pub event. We will see some rule breaking; someone might FOL/FOC on you and kill you. Don’t complain about it in chat. Pubs won’t know better. Regiments not active in the forums won’t know better. It’s a pub event  and many people fail to realize that.

Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: More focused on NA1 Pub Event but sure.

because of what happened, i will not hold it against the specialist who had them in this week's assignment of them. (this does not apply to the chefs.  they were not there and had i had the chance, i would of given it to someone else.   you can still sign up for them and may even get them again seeing as how people are when it comes to asking for them.)

meaning, i normally give preference in assignment of specialist to those who didnt have them the week before or had a certain role the week before.  that way its fair to all and mixes things up.   i wont do that this week.  if you had it in last night's event, you get dibs on the role you had.  if you want to trade, talk to one of the other specialist slot's leader.  if you don't inform me you still want your role by the time i normally assign roles(wed night or thurs), you will lose your dibs.(that means sign up again)  chefs can sign up for skirms again, but they do not get dibs as they were not at the event.

typing on my phone.

The event will never be perfect.  I fully expect pubs or even regiments to break the rules at one time or another.  I find the regiments that break rules on a consistent basis to be more aggravating than when the pubs do it.  they are 100x more organized than the pub line will ever be.  They have all the benefits of preparing in advance and communicating with each other.(20% of the pub line on average is in ts.  Maybe higher some nights.  We had a very high percent today but those were just the pubs who made it to the back up server)  I don't think anyone thought it would be perfect.  I made several posts to make sure this was known.   it is why i wanted regs to know the rules and follow them as best they can, so all the admins can focus on getting the pubs where they should be. 

As for god mode.  I don't have a problem with my admins mowing down random pubs off in no man's land who aren't following the rules.  If they are near friendly lines, I try and warn them one more time to join, if theu dont, they are slayed. (Manually or admin panel.)

It isn't fair to the 120, 140 or whatever pop to be continually fol on.  I gave my admins permission to go ahead and revive those killed by random pubs who are off doing their own thing.  That way it minimizes the damage done.

If someone is trying to kill an admin in God mode.... Not really much I can say.  They can't die.  no point in wasting your time doing so.  Best to just ignore it.  If an admin is using god mode, it is because they feel it is the best way to handle whatever the situation is aND get back to their lines.  Can't say I am suprised he was manually slayed if he fol twice.  We have reg members who have a hard time firing in line.  No way for the admin to tell when they are on the opposite team. 

Admins cannot see names of players on opposite teams unless they have kannades script.(they also have to be in range)  Problem with that is that not everyone has it and many admins are using my scripts to revive people.  I have heard that the 2 can be merged and made compatible and I have also heard the opposite.  I don't use his scripts and never have so I can't say.


Even with your own team, you have to be close enough to see their names.  And if anyone has ever admins with 100+ people, they can tell you how big of a pain finding that one name can be.

if you want to recommend some guidelines on when it should be used and not used, feel free.  might implement what you or other day depending on what is brought up and the points raised.  currently, i dont have a problem with them killing those who are breaking the rules.(tho generally i would prefer it to be on those not in the middle of a melee or near combat if possible)

yep.  i see this a lot.(bolded)

admins being regiment leaders is more of a bi-product of who they are on na1.  Most of the staff are long time players, many of whom over time made their own reg or moved up and eventually took over.  i dont view rank as  a means to tell whether someone is responsible or not or if they should become an admin.  I think we all know/met some reg leaders who should never have admin powers over the years.

if someone applies and the staff feels they are worthy, and everything else passes my approval,  they will be added.  idc what their rank is.  at the end of the day, the only thing that really matters is if they are worthy and can be helpful to the team.   

having a admin per regiment(roughly) isnt really a bad thing imo.  it means there is a very high chance an admin will be at any given point of the battlefield.  it means they have a better chance at catching any trouble makers or rule breakers.  it also means that they can take care of any trouble they may have. 

i will never ask my admins to just set in spec all game, or even for a while.  at the end of the day, this is a game.  they have every right like everyone else to play the game.  we aren't paid, we are vol.   now if an admin wants to sit in spec, they are more than welcome to do so. 

i was hoping at this point in time that the pub line would be a bit more organized by having the same core of 10-15 people every event.  we probably get the same 5 or so people(usually up to 10), and not all of them want to lead.  my goal was to have the pub line be more self sufficient so i don't always have to be there overlooking them.  sadly, when you get a line of 20,30, 40 people, there are just so many people who dont know what to do and need someone like me to watch over them.(we get a lot of new faces weekly) most of them never been to a lb or have very little experience.       the more self sufficient the pub line is, the more i can focus on the event as a whole.(which is where i would like to focus more on to make it run smoother.)

hopefully i didn't miss anything.  posting on my phone is a pain in the ass.

As for the godmode, we have never seen it, I've never seen it. It's why everyone stopped to stare while the Nr9 gunned us down. I guess we're the good kids on the block.  8)   If we never seen it, there's a possibility another regiment never seen it.

It is a pub event, you will see some rulebreaking. Warn them first. I don't care if it's the 50th time someone saying it. A pub could've just joined and don't know. If a regiment member is just trolling around, delaying, sapper towers, killing an arty horse, you should slay. They know better. I agree, regiments need to be a model for the pubs to look up to. If an enemy is breaking the rules, treat it as a pub. Every regiment should see one pub in their line, or at least we have. Most likely it's the pub. And the use of godmode should be used in the extreme cases. That is vague but I think everyone can agree that a pub who FOL twice, wasn't warned, and didn't kill anyone is not extreme. Godmode is a tool for admins to address something immediately and I don't believe that the case with Getty had to be fixed immediately.

I agree on no need to spec all game. They are just people, it is just a game, they want to have fun too, sitting in spec watching people isn't fun. I've been there. But I disagree with even for a while. Admins aren't players with some powers. Admins are admins. They have that responsibility on them. And everyone who applies to become admin should know this. They aren't applying just for some powers, but also applying for the responsibility on what it takes. If they need to go to spec, they should. You mentioned before about the use of godmode is the best way to handle the situation and get back to their lines. If they are focusing on getting back to their line to continue commanding, they shouldn't be admin. If an admin needs to leave their line, they should. The exception is you with the pubs.

Whenever I've used god mode to kill a rulebreaker, the idea wasn't that the rulebreaker needed to be punished. The idea was that killing him was the fastest way to make him stop breaking the rules.

Maybe third time will be the charm. Cannons again.

And the use of godmode should be used in the extreme cases. That is vague but I think everyone can agree that a pub who FOL twice, wasn't warned, and didn't kill anyone is not extreme. Godmode is a tool for admins to address something immediately and I don't believe that the case with Getty had to be fixed immediately.

Spoiler
i will never ask my admins to just set in spec all game, or even for a while.  at the end of the day, this is a game.  they have every right like everyone else to play the game.  we aren't paid, we are vol.   now if an admin wants to sit in spec, they are more than welcome to do so. 
[close]

I agree on no need to spec all game. They are just people, it is just a game, they want to have fun too, sitting in spec watching people isn't fun. I've been there. But I disagree with even for a while. Admins aren't players with some powers. Admins are admins. They have that responsibility on them. And everyone who applies to become admin should know this. They aren't applying just for some powers, but also applying for the responsibility on what it takes. If they need to go to spec, they should. You mentioned before about the use of godmode is the best way to handle the situation and get back to their lines. If they are focusing on getting back to their line to continue commanding, they shouldn't be admin. If an admin needs to leave their line, they should. The exception is you with the pubs.

it has been used in about all if not every lb for the last month and a half.(when i made it in june.)  i left in the sound effect in for a reason, so it stands out.  a brand new regiment may not know about it, but there are very few of those.  almost all the regiments who attend are regulars to the event and many of them attend one of getty's events where my scripts are also used.(or use to attend)  not counting extreme situations, it is used on one guy generally not near any friendly lines who decided to ignore the various warnings.  it can be used on someone "near" friendly lines

there are times one needs to warn and try to corral people to the right place, and there are times when you just need to kill(slay).  we do a lot of the former, even if you dont see it.  there are a lot of message telling people(mainly pubs) where to go and what to do. these can be in ts, steam, team chat, all chat, or admin chat.  some people, even after all the messages, decide to go off and do their own thing for one reason or another.  some could be ignorant,and some believe they dont have to listen.

 at the end of the day, the admin has to decide if that person can be "saved" or not.   the entire time an admin is taking care of that one guy, they are neglecting everything else.(if you are lucky, you can multi task in said situation but that isnt always possible) they are spending their "resources"(time).  there comes a point where you are wasting your time or you need to take care of something else more pressing.  in the ideal world, there are many things i would like to do.  in the real world, you have to make choices that you may not want to but have to.   if someone is breaking a rule, ignorant or not of its existence, they can be punished.  (we do warn way more often than we punish. we give a lot of breaks to pubs, sometimes more than we should)



and i will also make this one point.  you need not fear an admin running up and mowing your entire line down with god mode.(unless your line is continually and blatantly breaking the rules.  this hasnt happened as of yet)   the staff we have are better than that.  if someone on my staff does that unjustly, then action will be taken against them.  if you seen an admin using it, it is because they feel it is necessary for whatever they are handling.  if someone FOL twice, they can/should  be slayed.     i didn't see the incident first hand so im not going to go into it further. 


admins are players.  simple as that.  They get to play the game just like everyone else should they want to.  If something comes up, i would expect they do what they can to look into and take care of the issue. they are not required to sit in spec.(nor is sitting in spec required to admin properly)  it has been this way since i was made an admin.  if they feel they need to go spectator, they can.  i will leave it open to my admins on how they should handle something.

your last line makes it sound like i should just remove all admins who also lead their lines.  dk if that is your intent or not but the answer to that is no.  never going to happen.  majority of the admin staff are 3 years+ old in their na1 admining career.(i have been a senior admin for over 3 years now)  this event was made by me with the help of some of the staff a few months ago.  no where on the admin app did it say they had to do this event or the mini events i created.  i only recently put a line on there, just to see if any future apps would also be helpful for the event(s).  it is not required.(seeing as its regular na1 6 days and 23 hours of the week)  the only admins i expect at this event are the lb admins, who signed up solely for this event.(they are also vol)

i will not nerf my admins ability to leave their line to handle a situation.  if they feel they need to take care of something, they can.  Part of the reason i made god mode was to allow the admins to go out, take care of something,(admining) then come back and play without being screwed out of their chance to enjoy the game.  i did this the week before when i switched teams to babysit the USMC arty, then back to my team to be with the pubs. 

like i said before, we are a vol staff.  i will leave it to each admin on how they handle a situation.

And because the event went to all line, I will assume every regiment will want the same specialty role. So I will request Cav for the 11th.
they have to sign up to get it again.  if they dont, they dont get it.   you can trade with one of them should they want to.

Whenever I've used god mode to kill a rulebreaker, the idea wasn't that the rulebreaker needed to be punished. The idea was that killing him was the fastest way to make him stop breaking the rules.
and this^^    its more to stop them from causing more trouble than a punishment like say teamkilling.(slaying them is still a punishment for breaking the rules)  if we can get them to stop fol or whatever without slaying, i prefer that route where possible. 

ill do a glance over on wednesday for specialists.   if you had it for the last event, showed up,and signed up for this thurs, you got it.  if there are any open slots, ill assign them them on wed.

I like this. There will be times when you do need to go fast. But I do encourage admins to go down the list of their options before they use godmode. I still believe my line was greatly affected by Getty's use of godmode because we were all too close. 20 paces away and charging with the pub right in the middle behind my line.

On a totally different note, I want to take advantage of recruiting pubs and one way to do that is using NA1's teamspeak. If we use NA1's teamspeak, would I have the power to rename the channel to Silahtars (Cav) or whatever specialty unit we go for that week, have the power to kick trolls, and set priority speaker? Or is using the teamspeak is just getting a channel named after the regiment? And any regiment that uses it, recommends it? Thinking about trying it out.

anyone can go in the fse ts, go into the public channel, right click on the channel, and make a sub channel.  You can choose the name and should you want, you could PW it.  Whoever makes the channel will have channel admin and they should be able to give that to other users in that channel.  the channel is temporary so you will have to remake it if everyone leaves it.  you should be able to use priority speaker and you would be able to kick people out of the channel.  tho, outside of one guy the other day, we haven't had really any problems in the ts since we have been doing events.(knock on wood) 

i was recently given admin in that ts, so there is more flexibility in what we can do there.  if you want a regular channel for your regiment, i could make one but it will be at the bottom part with all the other regiment channels.(but perma)

and a reminder, if you had a specialst role last week and still want that one, you have to sign up for it or you lose your dibs.  i will go over specialist tomorrow night, so sign up before then.  i made this post yesterday but i couldnt post it,  i will go over the specialist roles sometime early tomorrow or late tonight.(after midnight central)

rddt asked for cav, but you get dibs sil if you want it as you had it last week and were there.  if you want skirms, i can grant that and rddt skirms.  that will leave 1 arty slot open.

another possibility is chefs skirms, sil cav, and rddt arty.     or chefs arty, sil skirms, and rddt cav.  or maybe other possibilities. 

i will let you determine what you want.  you can talk to each other.

if i dont hear back by tonight, i will make it rddt cav, sil skirms, and open arty(chefs would get dibs on this)

trying to balance out people's wishes with fairness to those who showed up last week and who had what previously.  please post what you would prefer at the very least.

So pretty much sign up for next week and you might get the spot if someone else doesn't sign up after you just like this week?

you skipped last week, intentionally or not.(you said not, which is fine)  i will and have  given preference to those who show up to the event over those who haven't.  i've been doing it that way since this was started.(tho we rarely had all the slots filled) it is only fair to those who show up rather than someone who didn't. 

 last week, the server for whatever reason died, leaving those who signed up one round max to make use of their specialist roles.  they didn't get a chance to play the event with them.  so, to make it fair, i decided to give them first dibs on their slots to give them the chance to play the role they wanted this week. some came last week(who had a role) wanted a different role, so i granted it.(and even room to move to other slots by negotiating with each other)  others didnt have a role last week but showed up nonetheless.

show up tonight and finish the event, like everyone else normally does, and you will be given the same preference as everyone else for next week.  i prefer not to give them same role to the same group every week(unless they were the only ones to sign up, then there isnt a reason to deny them).  so, there is a good chance you may end up with skirms.  outside of this last week, roles are not guaranteed days or weeks in advance.(this applies to everyone)  i choose them the day before/of based on how many signed up for any given role, what they had(or didnt have) the week before, and other factors necessary,  like people skipping.  The roles were assigned out of what is fair to all, not to just target you.  should someone else skip this event, then it will hurt them next week should they want a role.

I don't have a problem us not getting skrims because we weren't here last week. the problem I have with it is the time which skrims was requested. Like I had a group of guys wanting to play skrims and I can't find a similar group wanting to play arty in 3 hours. I totally understand that you want reliable people. But can't there also be a deadline for registration?

yea, were missing a line or 2.(usmc usually comes with 20 or so at least, if not more)  i was expecting 150 or so.  (pub line was also smaller, but it varies from event to event)

i dont like blow outs in the slightest.   i fiddled with the teams a bit but some groups wanted to play with other regiments they know well, so i didnt want to break them up(PA and nr9+ 87th).  of course, part of the issue with balance was the way the teams played.  the team i was on kept going for the key points in the middle of the map while the other team was content to hold their part of the map.   some of the rounds were close until it came to melee, or some clutch shots. 

hopefully next week people can join on time.

is there a deadline? no.  people can apply right before the event or during if there is an open slot.(apply in server)  tho, i do give preference to those who applied before wed night/thurs morning over those who apply right before the event.  more often than not, we do not fill all the specialist slots, and some people sign up late to even it out(like having 2 cav instead of 1)  and in those cases, they tend to be the one group applying so there is no reason to deny them it.  like you seen today, i dont have a problem with people negotiating for slot changes.(you and nr9 swapping)


now, i wanted to make a post a few days ago regarding specialist, but the forums were down or otherwise having issues.  this hindered my posting and others posting/responding + compounding other issues.

Extremely fun event tonight. Enjoyed every part of it. I told my regiment about the maps. I'm assuming we used Thunder's maps with the custom made ones. We all enjoyed the maps. Well done on the maps.

This is to everyone but send me a friend request on Steam if you want to switch on specialty roles. We are a regiment that does them all and enjoys them all. Thunder might not appreciate last second but even if it's last second, hook me up and we can switch. All week I've been telling my regiment we are cav. They came in teamspeak expecting cav and I told them we are skirms. Everyone was fine with it. Even with all the roles filled, if someone wants our role we are more than happy to switch to line.

Overall a well enjoyable event tonight. Keep it up.  8)

may add a few more objects for cover in a few spots but i thought they were ok.  one team was way more aggressive than the other so they managed to take the key ground almost every round.  and even when the rounds were close, one team managed to do better in melee and win by a decent amount. 

if people want to trade slots, i dont have a problem with it.  just make sure to let me know. 

and the faster people get there, the faster i can assign teams.  if i or my admins have to stop what we are doing to track down regiments, we end up wasting everyone's time.  so please come earlier or if you cant make it or will be late, let us know.

@ everyone     try and be on time and well behaved.  the better people and their regs behave, the better it will be for everyone. players and admins alike.

That could have gone much more smoothly, but given we had three functioning admins and none of us had experience running linebattles, I'll call it reasonable. Hopefully, we'll be back to regularly scheduled decent administrating next week.

Overall, it went well and we had fun. +1

We started 15 minutes late, but you added in 15 more minutes. Didn't cut it short and one full hour of fun. I really like this a lot. And I mean a lot. +3

Every week we have at least multiple incidents with pubs. We had nothing severe today. +2

There is no firing after an all charge, even below 5 on one team. -2

You mentioned everyone in the French Compound, you need to be in a line to fire. We were in the compound but we were in a building. I think you meant the USMC who was outside. -1

The score honestly means nothing, no complaints, no compliments. It was just for fun but the admins get a 3 from me if that means anything. Lol. It's just how I felt on a few things. Your last sentence insults me because the event doesn't need to be perfect. The most important thing is if everyone is having fun and we definitely did. That is good administrating. The last map was awesome but arty trains had no cannons spawned with them. But the map had cannons already placed and we really enjoyed having buildings we can garrison in. So everything worked out. Wink wink map builder, Thunder.  ;) Add some buildings to garrison in for one side but enemy arty can fire at the building, making some holes and killing some enemies for balance. Just an idea.

Here is my thought and opinion on starting on time because we do start late every week. Kinda enforce it but not really. If the regiment is a specialty role and they are late, take note for the future and that's it. Thunder already takes consideration when he accepts specialty roles. NA1 is my favorite server to go on but lately it's lacking population. I don't mind the extra 10-15 minutes of regular NA1 and I don't think anyone else minds either. Just add in an extra round at the end of the event to get us to a full hour. I know that the server is still populated after the event but I much prefer the 100 players with a few regiments in there than 20 or 30 that is mostly pubs. Just my opinion.

I did mean everybody in the compound. At the Tuesday/Friday HCL, which is the only event I go to that frequently features buildings, you do have to be in a line to fire out of a window. Coincidently, the bullet point saying you do not have to be in a line to fire while in a building is one of the three I didn't write.

Fortunately, I can still claim I was invoking the rule that says the admins can change the rules at any time.

under 5 there are no combat rules.(that doesn't mean tk etc,.)  if an all charge is ordered, then there is no reloading. 

admin complaints go to me via pm.  if you want to discuss the lb rules here, go ahead.  just want to make it clear to everyone(not directed at anyone) that this isn't a soap box to go after the admin staff. 

there are a few na1 maps that have buildings i wouldn't mind using.  Problem is that they may not work well if there is say arty on them just because of the map layout.(unless a team just camped a building)  Perhaps we will try one of my maps i made a long time ago that has several buildings and pre spawned in arty.(i think there are 2 prespawned howi.  i could make a change for the lb)  there is a crest in the middle of the map that makes seeing across the map difficult, but it is still possible.  and there are several buildings(small villages) that can be garrisoned and destroyed.   anyways, maybe i will map make this week.  depends if i have time and i want to.

People are suppose to be at the event 15 min early(845 eastern) and teams are suppose to be assigned 5 min before 9 eastern.  problem is half the people who attend(part or entire regiments) show up 5-10 min after 9 eastern.  that means we could start exactly on time, but that would be with 60-100 people who make it on time.  that would mean more than likely no specialist for a few rounds.  that would also mean stopping in the middle of the first map or so to redo both teams to balance it out.  it is possible after a week or 2 people would arrive on time, or people would just stop coming after missing the first map because they feel they wont get a chance to play a full lb.

now, i am not expecting every person in a reg will be there on time.  people are late due to various reasons.  but it is annoying when i have to or have my admins track down regiments because people forgot or just didn't bother to get on to get their people together.(back when i use to be in a regiment, even without an officer on, rankers could still join the lb and organize it.  this is even easier now with the pub event. no pw to retrieve)  we had to do this with several different regiments.  it takes time, and it either means we start without them and reorganize later, or wait till they join.

now when we do start late, i do make us go a little longer.(generally we have a 50-55 min lb when i can)  problem is people think its time to go right at 10 eastern, and the admins get spammed with "is this the last round?"  some people or entire regs leave at that time, so that makes going longer not as practical and less enjoyable.  and yes, i try and keep track of who is late or no shows. 

and i am not sure how you are insulted at xethos's comment.  he was talking about how they could of done better.  which is fine.  no one is perfect, and wanting to be better is natural and good in this case.  I heard the event went pretty well with not too many issues which is great.  if it was good enough for you and your group, fantastic.   :)

as for the rules.  they were written several times.  i made several drafts(including the final) and xethos made one based off of one of my earlier ones with better English, rephrasing, changes after talking to the staff about the rules, or other minor stuff.  i put in the bit about shooting from houses not requiring a line.  i did not feel pub lines could follow rules like being in a line in a house well enough and it would be too hard to keep track of it all from an admins pov.  many of the rules are like that.  but yes, xethos is correct.  they can be changed at any time based on what is going on at the event with a headsup.

think i covered everything in this post.  made this while in a lb.

Why you would be a good admin: I'm more or less doing this because I think I can help organize the Public Regiment (At least more than it already is), but I don't have any real ties to any of the regiments here so I won't play favorites when someone breaks the rules.
Previous Experience (if any): ~5 years of operating a Regiment for M&M and NW, a good portion of that time being spent with 'Public' regiments in one way or another.

Well that was an interesting event.  Started off smaller than i wanted due to at least 2 lines not being there but it picked up.   150 or so by the end i believe.    there were some issues with the pubs but seeing as its a steam sale, i don't think it went too badly.  we were close if we didn't break the all time largest pub line tonight.(for  the events anyways)

Well that was fun.  Plenty of close rounds.  Seems liked everything went fairly well.  Looked like both sides arty got a fair amount of kills via their cannon or in melee after.  I didn't get to see how well cav actually did.(looked like they did good)

I would like to thank USMC Tired for advertising the event on the BBG server. 

1 issue that came up and i thought i would ask what you all thought.(perhaps you didnt think it was an issue)  Rules for being in a house. We really dont have any, part in thanks to the pubs themselves. 

We could make it so we dont play on maps with buildings.  We could make it so there are rules for every line.  We could have rules for every other line and not take the pubs in a building.(this is is meh)   I figured arty would take care of any building campers and they somewhat did.(not as well as i hoped)  granted, the 2fa have played on the 2nd map a few times over the years.  Not sure about the SiL.   So maybe next time it would go a tad better with everyone being more familiar with the map.   anyways let me know your thoughts. 


here are some screenshots.

the pub commander(not in ts) lead us on the 3rd map.  that last round he had us near a building.  The arty shot through the windows and door and slaughtered us.  Not too long after this a pub in ts thought patrick was trying to tk with his hammer.  So he teamkilled him.  Should of heard him after we told him that he was a medic.(took several times)  The ts bursted out in laughter.

RIP to all of the glorious pubs that lost their lives on this day.  :'(

As for the maps, yeah I would try to stick with things strictly with only open ground, it makes it harder for Cavalry and rule following in general when it requires maneuvering around the buildings and having to deal with people who rambo garrison and things of that nature. Would be better I think all around.

Oh. We focused more on setting up trying to see the full map and enemy arty. Focused more on buildings when the rest were in buildings. Next time I'll see if I can set one cannon against buildings and one cannon against open field.

And the one time I forgot to record the battle, and the one time I actually wanted to upload to YouTube. It was great. I knew I was screwed when he started teamwounding me because of the hammer. I knew I was double screwed when I got revived and enemies were near spawn. Tried to tnt the enemy but they wanted a firing squad. We were laughing as well.

Sure.   you dont need 10-15 to have it.  around 5 or so would do(preferably more)

well that was interesting.   I think by the end, half the server were pubs.(120-130 people)  It seemed like quite a few of them ignored warnings until you confronted them personally, and doing that with 60+ people just isn't the most practical.(even with several admins trying to track em all down)  Seemed like overall they weren't as cooperative as last week.  quite a few of them were like moths to a light.  as soon as something shiny popped up, they would just fall apart.

hopefully the regiments that had various pubs tag a long with didn't cause too much trouble.  I know the 63e had a lot of cav with them, but it looked like they were trying to stay with them at all times.

Sorry this is a bit late, but I just had to share these screenshots of the linebattle from last week! Had a crazy amount of pubs come to join my guys in cavalry. Ended up having about 17 guys in total, majority were pub. Was a bit hectic at first due to a lot of ramboing because they got confused where I was, but towards the end it came together nicely.

Here is some screen caps from the night:

you got it. 

to you hayden.    i give specialist roles out the wed night/thurs of the lb.  i try to make sure everyone has a chance to play a specialty role.  it is fair to everyone and keeps the event from being repetitive.   There are no guarantees week to week if you will get a role or the role you wanted.  with that being said, say you dont get cav, you could still sign up for skirms or arty.   and should someone else who has a role you want should want to trade, you could. 

now normally only a few regiments ever sign up for specialty roles so the demand for any one isn't too large.  meaning that there still may be a good chance you will get the role you want.


and the day of the lb, after i approve roles like the above just now, if no one takes a specialty slot, it becomes first come first serve.  the one exception would be when the forums go down for whatever reason like the did a while back and people couldn't post.

read my post above.  You got cav along with the 63e.

I won't be here.  My cable company is currently being run by a bunch of morons.  Odds are I wont be on till fri unless a miracle happens and people get their heads out of their asses at said company. 

If any more last second roles need to be assigned, talk to xethos.  Hopefully things go well.  If the staff is slightly shorthanded while I am not there, feel free to pester the other staff members to get on.  Normally when I can't be here I can set things up ahead of time but this time I cant.  The more people cooperate, the better it will go.

Wonder how many words my phone auto corrected.

It went better than the last time I tried coordinating it. Didn't have anybody tell me that I ought to resign, which is an improvement. Other than some vigilantism and an angry redditor, I don't think there were any serious issues. Could have been better, but it wasn't disastrous.

I know I am not contracted to show up and whatnot but I feel bad when I don't. So just wanted to again apologize for my spotty attendance sometimes. I don't know if I have said this or not but I have recently been attending college again and it eats a lot of time as many of you know. I know that I haven't exactly missed a whole bunch of events but I have and will probably miss one a month or so.

All good.  You aren't the only one busy with school.  It wouldn't suprise me in about a month or so if the pop picks up again as it nears the various holidays.

diadem managed to make it and put on a dance, and i want to say a rddt won a round in a 1v1.

From what i heard and seen, the key server  is down so that didn't help the pop.

with that being said, the pop has been on the lower end since school started.   If you still want to attend, please post how many you think you will bring.   

I want to know how many even still want to go, or if we should stop the event for now and pick it up later when more people want to attend.(like during/after the halloween, thanksgiving, and christmas sales)

i'd like to get at least 60 people or so to go.  under than then it isn't much of an lb, even tho the pubs did have fun today.

Post by: Thunderstormer on October 17, 2016, 07:00:42 pm
Seems attendance has dropped too low for various reasons.(tho many of the people who attend don't check this until the day before)   For now i will cancel the event.   Perhaps after/during the various upcoming sales(Halloween, thanksgiving, and Christmas) when people want an event to recruit pubs with, we can start it back up.  It will be up to the community if they want to start this back up again.(at least 70 people to that will attend before i will consider starting it back up)

Thanks to everyone, both guests and staff for supporting it over the months.  especially the few regs who came every week when they could.(school made some regs drop out)

I don't want to hear people complain about lack of recruits or the ability to get recruits.   The event has consistently had a pub line, averaging 15+.  Recruitment, as it always has been, was and still is open to all.  If you didn't want to make use of the best recruitment tool available(for getting your random pubs) on the NA side, then that is on you.  If the event was still getting 70+, then i wouldn't have canceled it.  I know the key server for taleworlds wasn't working, but the event itself was still suffering from low pop since sept.  The event would still be going on if half the people complaining here on the forums bothered to attend the event.(or continued)


This thread will still remain up as the mini event rules are still there, and should the event want to be restarted, people can post here.
