The Observatory feedback megathread!

Many people feel ya on this topic bahamut. Just no one brings it up and if you do the pitchfork (Admins (-) Mark) crew will be after you. Better just not to play the game than to do deal with it. Probably why most of us pick who we wanted to play on the regular which is what I did for a long while till some of the Admins came back. It's the waiting game now till overload comes out and another ladder opens up.

omg, calling your brother a bitch?? We were playing a game of 4 player UGH and when I got nicely owned I said "BITCH!" I said it the moment it happened....looked up to see who had killed me right after I said it....hoping it was Drakona cuz that would have been akward. It happened to be your brother that got the shot off. Don't spin this to suit witch hunt I wasn't singling your brother out to call him a bitch.

The only insults that happened yesterday were yours. As it pertains to hacking you accused me just last month of hacking. You have cursed at me also.

Interesting that you are blowing up in this fashion after YOU publically declared mega nysa devoid of ANY skill being required and then got embarrassed and had to eat your own words!!! No matter how loudly you scream these words it doesn't change what happened.

All you are doing is bringing up old stuff. Stuff for which I was already disciplined for. You voiced your opinion many times in the forums in relation to these things in the past.

Ask yourself this question....

If I had accused you of cheating (not just saying it in the heat of a loss) cold....calculated...and in multiple ways....express to you that I believe you are cheating (you know....the exact thing you just did to me this past month) ....if the roles were reversed on this one....would you have come to the forums raising hell demanding I be banned and punished??

The answer is clearly yes.

The thing is...you just did this to me....and what did I do about it??? I AM an admin and I chose to come talk to you to find out what could possibly be making you think this way. I made no public spectacle of it nor did I seek you being disciplined on the ladder. So your actions here and now seem like the pot calling the kettle black a bit.

The stuff you have brought up is old as dirt with the exception of having uttered the word BITCH! in the ugh game last night which was not intended to cause emotional harm to your brother. I'm sure that had Drakona thought I was singling your brother out to inform him that he IS A BITCH! then I think something would have come of it. It was just a word....there was no intent to harm.

In fact, if your brother took personal offense to it....then I apologize Birddog. Seems to me to be more of you diggin for the only recent thing you can find to use in your argument. You conveniently leave out all the things you are recently guilty of.

I showed you respect. I came and spoke to you about your accusations and attempted to clear the air. When I informed you of how I took your disrespectful and misguided post about mega nysa and chose to prove it to you in the mines you didn't apologize or admit you were wrong.

This isn't the IDL and I'm not your daddy. If the two of you have a problem, solve it by talking to each other like adults -- which involves listening and understanding, not just accusing and yelling and trying to justify yourselves.

If you want to get me or Drakona or Mark involved, the first words out of your mouth better not be "please punish this pilot", they'd better be "please help the two of us work out our problems".

As fun as this is, I'm going to move on.

The "don't pick a variant of a level" thing is obviously not popular, so I have no reason to keep it in. Consider it tossed.

I'd still like to discuss featuring levels and changing the season scoring. Anyone have any opinions on those suggestions?

Are you still planning to stick to the same schedule? I'm weighing up which weekend to plant March's co-op event on, but so far it doesn't look like it'd make a difference. Unless the event is postponed, in which case before it starts is better...

Yes sir, in fact I'm going to start posting about it today!

Sorry to dredge this up from the past, but I was researching what makes for good level selection across the forum and I hadn't previously read much past early January. I actually think theres some really good posts in here, theres lots of valid points covering many areas to do with levels/participants/viewers and some great contributions by a number of different people (including Big Rat, Birdseye, Cyrus, Drakona, Lothar, melvin and PFunk to name a few). I would definitely recommend it to anyone deciding what home levels to choose for something like the Observatory tournament. Also, I'd like to say a special thanks to Birdseye and Lothar, I very much appreciate what you guys said.
