Zounds and wave 15

Post by Venger » Tue Sep 30, 2008 11:46 am

There has been questions about whether or not is an actual rule about not playing Zounds after wave 15.

http://monstermadness.iforumer.com/view ... termadness

It clearly says on rule number 10 about this.

The reason I post this is because a webadmin was not even sure if it was a rule or not and wanted to know where it was stated.

Hope this helps.

There is an actual rule for this. Only it's for and after 16, not 15.

it actually says:


10).DO NOT PLAY MUSICAL ZOUNDS AFTER WAVE 15-
Playing musical zounds (ie: ppk, rnot, gsong....) after
wave 15 causes lag on the server. Please do not play
musical zounds after wave 15.



paints post also says:


**IMPORTANT NOTICE** The above rules may change without notice, so check back frequently.
the problem is: we may have more than 400 registered users, but it
seems like only those 20 constant players come here into forum more
frequently and those who play only once a week only register in forum,
make 1-2 posts in 2 months and thats it.
thats why with most noobies we have that problem and even admins didnt look here all the time! and the bullsh!t answer from the noobs "i dont look at forum, i have no time to read!" or "no i hate forums, i want
get my own experiences" and so on p!$$ me off sometimes...

why you think im sure "noone" is lookin at forum?
thats why:

"how do i unload weps?"
..(sigh...again a noob)
10 seconds later
"how do i unload weps?"
..(sigh... please, why again...)
5 seconds later
"how do i unload weps?"
...(ok. stop playing...)
we are friendly and answer
1 minute later:
"how do i unload weps?"
"how do i unload weps?"
"how do i unload weps?"
we are still "friendly" and answer again and tell to stop spamming...
30 secs later:
"how do i unload weps?"
kickvotes starting
"why you start to kickvote?" (why is he reading that but not our answers?)
"how do i unload weps?"
we are pissed and tell more or less friendly "please" paying attention
because we told it many times now.
"what did you told, i readed nothing?"
"how do i unload weps?"
more kickvotes...
"please dont vote me off, what have i done?" (why is he still reading hes
beeing kickvoted but still not reading the answers?)

anyone know that?

2minutes quiet because player dead

new wave starting
"how do i toss pus?"
we are still "friendly", answering pissed "please" go to forum
or read the "first aid"-INV-related HELP-Hints, when pressing ESC,
there are some implemented...

"i dont understand"...
"how do i toss pus?"
"how do i toss pus?"
"how do i toss a wep?"
more, but not enough kickvotes...
beeing pissed about beeing killed all the time starting zoundspam...
we are not friendly anymore and react pissed and cant do anything because no way to get more kickvoters..

everyday....sux....


for "lagging the server" i remember what joey said long time ago, it was
something like: "zounds are on your pc, if someone <say> a zound, then
on your pc (and all others who are playing/speccin) the zound-mutator
automatically plays the zound, NOT THE SERVER! so lag comes clientsided,
depending on soundcard and what crappy pc you have!"

doesnt matter if its lagging or not, its distructing sometimes, esp. when
playing "ppk" in "wand-waves" and not beeing able to hear them (good
enough) cause of that zound!

The 51% kick vote doesn't seem to work very much. Even when someone is being a total richardhead there isn't enough people that vote a kick.

We lowered it to 31% on one of our severs and it worked out really well.

Just a thought.

Amy.........This is why I have a "Key-Bind" that I spam when I see questions like that.......

"Go to http://monstermadness.iforumer.com/view ... termadness to learn how to play on server."


I spam it 10-15 times sometimes depending on how many noob questions I see during game play.
