<s>Go forth and word-procreate upon this ‘forum’ upon which men from the ‘internet’ may ‘talk’ to one another.</s>

I'll be making the Bash packs this year, and I need suggestions for levels I can put in. There are not enough new levels for a Battle and a CTF pack.

[Grytolle]

let's make a fofel's levels only bash this year (y)

[Eigus]

levels with boem (y)

[Lithium]

let's make a fofel's levels only bash this year (y)

let's not

[Eigus]

you don't even get the jokes :@

[Ragnarok!]

Uhh, DS, put a load of old levels like last year. Just don't overdo it xP.

[snzspeed]

Uhh, DS, put a load of old levels like last year. Just don't overdo it xP.

Well, if I have counted correctly, there are not enough new levels anyway, so putting old levels is kind of a must..

[cooba]

Not that you're actually restricted to using exactly 20 levels per gamemode. I suppose you can as well get away with less, like 15. Less filler levels that way, and bigger probability of cool levels getting played.

[Ragnarok!]

I like the above post. I still like the idea of old classics thrown into the mix though. =P

[Superjazz]

-ONE MONTH LATER-

"Sigh...a whole month gone, and still no lists..."

Sorry, I couldn't resist. By the way, I suggest that you put in this (http://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/6068/the-invertor/), which is a very creative experiment. Actually, you might wanna wait a moment in case Fofel is going to remake it with a more practical set.

I totally and completely forgot about this

Might show up if I remember how to play

[snzspeed]

I suggest adding a slogan to the bash from now on..

[Grytolle]

Well if we go with my fofel idea we could have the slogan "fofel ofel" (fawful awful)

Hmm..

[DarkSonic]

Well, I started making some lists but only with new levels. I still have to look for some old levels but I will need some help with that.

Anyway, here are the levels I have so far (once again, so far I only searched for NEW levels). Some of these levels have a very big chance of being in the final packs.

Deinspirated Mayhem – Eigus - Eigus' best level (in my opinion)
Underworld - Eigus - it's quite small, but if there's nothing else that can replace it it can probably be in
Triton Armory - PurpleJazz - also small, but we've had more small levels in the Bash
4th Reich - SuperJazz - a level that won a contest, but it was the only entry. :D
The Curse - Snooze - a level that became quite popular when it was released
Starlit Basin - Ragnarok - one of the best Battle levels from last year
Rainforest Revelry – cooba and Ragnarok - it won the award for best Battle level in the JCS Awards
room of the snooze - DarkSonic - a lot of people don't know this. This is from my still upcoming pack. I try not to be biased but I think some people know why I put this in this list ;)
Peaceful Fortification – DarkSonic - see room of the snooze
Lut Gholein – Snooze - one of the best Battle levels from last year that got played a few times in JDC events
Another Untitled Level – Jake - some Bashes have had not-so-serious levels so this could be in for lols
The Inventor - FawFul - very weird, but with a great concept and there have been more weird levels in previous Bashes

CTF:
Voltage Cable Malfunction - FawFul - this level shows that Faw became better after Planetary (;S)
The Canyon - Dodges - it was a bit overrated on J2O but could still be fun
Chemical Gases - FawFul - see Voltage Cable Malfunction
Server Room - Ktos - a really big level that could be good enough
Xyzzy - SuperJazz - despite the weird level name and layout this level could still be fun
Golem Landscapes - FireSworD - easily one of the best levels from 2009 and a must for the Bash. It won the Best CTF Award for a reason
Steam Machine + Landscape - Snooze - New Ages IV had some good levels, and out of the CTF ones I think this fits the Bash the best
Old Jungle - tropiCCo - not sure if this will make it, according to the reviews there are some people that don't like it that much (;S)
Fort Medina – Napoleon - another level that became quite popular in JDC events

There are some levels that didn't make this list:

Hard Cheese - FawFul - in my opinion this is the best CTF from Planetary, but Faw already has 2 CTF levels in the list that I (and there will be other people) like more
This level is.. gold! GOLD! - DarkSonic - a level that I already finished last year, but it didn't get in there. I don't think people know this anyway

Then there were some other levels from Planetary and New Ages IV, but both authors have a few levels in already. Snooze said he will make a new CTF for the Bash. About other people that will make new levels.. well, I don't really know. I asked Quickz if he wanted to make a level for the Bash but he didn't know yet (he basically quit JJ2)

Now, if there are suggestions for levels (new or old levels) then feel free to suggest them.

[CrimiClown]

I know Dubbed Marine is small but cut me some slack. D:

[cooba]

TITLED QUATTRO<!--caps-->

[EvilMike]

If you want some suggestions for 2009 stuff, you might want to look at the nominees lists for the 2009 JCS awards. I remember quite a few battle and CTF levels being listed there, although maybe not all of them are really bash material. (This includes level packs)

[FireSworD]

Add Myopia or Technologized Sonicwaves and some more snz levels. Also, top it off with some good nostalgic classic levels.

[Vegito]

<s>and lets not add semi when it comes to good nostalgic levels, damn it</s>

[snzspeed]

<s>and lets not add semi when it comes to good nostalgic levels, damn it</s>

i couldnt agree more.. it pisses me off how everyone knows only that one level. semi, semi, semi, and even after that more semi.. I think the semi could be shoved up to their where the light doesnt shine, honestly :D

[Grytolle]

epitome

[CrimiClown]

TITLED QUATTRO<!--caps-->

... got cancelled due to DS and me not meeting up on regular basis anymore. Living 2 hours apart can kill teamwork. We WERE busy on it, however, and it promised to be a good, large level... But I doubt either of us is going to finish it any time soon.

[Raven aka StL]

I might be late with this, but you should put 10 old (great) levels and 10 new ones in each pack. Then everyone should be happy. If there wouldn't be enough new levels for some pack, you can add fillers or more old ones.

[Eigus]

Deinspirated Mayhem – Eigus - Eigus' best level (in my opinion)
Underworld - Eigus - it's quite small, but if there's nothing else that can replace it it can probably be in

(y) (y) (y) [/shamelessselfaproval]

[DarkSonic]

I added some new (and old) levels to the lists.

Battle:
Deinspirated Mayhem – Eigus
Underworld - Eigus
Triton Armory - PurpleJazz
4th Reich - SuperJazz
The Curse - Snooze
Starlit Basin - Ragnarok
Rainforest Revelry – cooba and Ragnarok
room of the snooze – DarkSonic
Vanilla Shores- FawFul
Peaceful Fortification – DarkSonic
Lut Gholein – Snooze
Forest of Frozen Time/Dream Stage – Snooze (if snz finishes Dream Stage I will put that in, otherwise I will put Forest of Frozen Time)
Another Untitled Level – Jake
The Inventor - FawFuL

CTF:
Voltage Cable Malfunction - FawFul
The Canyon - Dodges
Chemical Gases - FawFul
Server Room - Ktos
Xyzzy - SuperJazz
Golem Landscapes - FireSworD
Steam Machine + Landscape - Snooze
Old Jungle - tropiCCo
Fort Medina – Napoleon
Rinoa (when finished)- Snooze
TITLED Quatro – CrimiClown & DarkSonic (if we manage to finish it)
The Melting Point (classic) – FireSworD

[cooba]

The Inventor - FawFuLInventor<img src="http://chaos.foxmage.com/cooba/1268329791179.jpg" />

[DarkSonic]

woeps.

I thought I had changed that. Oh well. I was thinking of putting some good old classics in like Crimson Diamond (which is not good quality-wise but fun to play in)

[Vegito]

DarkSonics signature reminds me of oman727. Just saying.

[Ragnarok!]

^ ROFL

[DarkSonic]

That's because the 'o man' actually comes from his name. When a lot of people tagged the file I copy pasted it and made this signature. :D

Anyway, I have added some more levels to the Bash. PJ suggested Termite Haven because it's sort of 'forgotten' and I added Crimson Diamond because it's old but still fun (it was in the Bash10 classic pack too but I think it's underplayed)

[blurredd]

How about including Clan Wars: SE (http://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/89/clan-wars-special-edition/), Clan Wars: SE II, and/or the peak (http://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/207/newage/) as classics?

[DarkSonic]

Battle:
Deinspirated Mayhem – Eigus
Triton Armory - PurpleJazz
4th Reich - SuperJazz
The Curse - Snooze
Starlit Basin - Ragnarok
Rainforest Revelry – cooba and Ragnarok
room of the snooze – DarkSonic
Vanilla Shores- FawFul
Peaceful Fortification – DarkSonic
Lut Gholein – Snooze
Forest of Frozen Time/Dream Stage – Snooze
Clan Wars: SE II - Shadow
The Invertor – FawFul
Garden Brawl (with a new palette and music) – FireSworD
Rinoa - Snooze (if he finishes it, he will have 4 Battle levels)

CTF:
Voltage Cable Malfunction - FawFul
The Canyon - Dodges
Chemical Gases - FawFul
Server Room - Ktos
Xyzzy - SuperJazz
Golem Landscapes - FireSworD
Steam Machine + Landscape - Snooze
Old Jungle - tropiCCo
Fort Medina – Napoleon
The Melting Point – FireSworD
Epitome – Merlyn
Crimson Diamond – martin
Space Station – Alita 7 - Shadow

Some of these levels probably won't make it at the end. I already removed a few levels like Another Untitled Level and Underworld (Another Untitled Level was added for lols and Underworld was a bit too small) I'm curious to what people think of levels like Alita 7 which is sort of a "forgotten" level. Future Evolution had some good levels but ShockWave is probably the most well-known one.

[DarkSonic]

Sorry for the double post, but I'd like to announce that the Bash lists are almost done. The CTF list is done and for the Battle list I need one more level. The lists will be posted when I've compiled both the Battle and CTF packs (I already compiled the CTF pack)

[Stijn]

Nice! Could you contact me once you're done, so I can properly put everything on J2O?

[DarkSonic]

The Bash lists are done! I've compiled the CTF pack and I will compile the Battle pack soon. The problem in the Battle list is that it contains a level that's not finished yet. Some people might make new levels to replace their old levels. After all that is done it can finally be uploaded on J2O.

But now, the lists!

[ShadowGPW]

I'm honored! Thank you!

Didn't expect ClanWars : SE2 to be in it at all and very happy to see Space Station Alita 7 in the pack :)

Anyway, might release a new level this week. If it's good enough in my eyes atleast.

~Later

[snzspeed]

great lists :)

[stripe]

Is there a date set?

[FQuist]

No-one from J2O (that I know of) is organizing the bash server this year. I hope the community will take up the effort. A logical timespan would be friday 09 april (3 pm GMT?) to monday 12 april.

So.... 1, 2, 3.... go!

P.S. OMG STRIPE HELLO!!

[FireSworD]

I already talked with DanZeal about the hosting and he agreed. I also discussed the starting date with some others and friday 09 is about the time we suggested.

[Bobby aka Dizzy]

Hey stripe! Where are you living these days?

[Slaz]

Hey there Stripe! And I'll be there when the bash starts. ;)

[DarkSonic]

Some changes in the final lists:

-PurpleJazz couldn't finish Cerulean Comet in time, this level has been replaced by Electric Canyon by Olsen.
-Cold Cavern replaced by Scrap Brain by me. At first it was Underground Hunting but I wanted Scrap Brain instead. This version has the Sonic 1 music.
-I thought I put Clan Wars: SE II in the Bash but it was Clan Wars: SE (the castle one)

I'm almost done with compiling the packs, so if you want to replace one of your own levels you have to be REALLY QUICK (Faw ;S)

[FQuist]

I already talked with DanZeal about the hosting and he agreed. I also discussed the starting date with some others and friday 09 is about the time we suggested.

Do you have any specifics?

[snzspeed]

only about two days. its the first time i am somehow excited that a bash is happening.. besides ab6 and 7 :)

[FireSworD]

Do you have any specifics?

A server starting with battle bash then ctf bash, so no double servers as that seemed to be problematic in the past. I don't have the exact times for when bash starts, alternates or ends. I'll be sure to talk with DanZeal about the times.

Also, would appriciate it if more people would have a say in this. :rolleyes:

[Stijn]

People might have had a say in this if they had known about the server arrangement :rolleyes:

Anyway, let me know the time once it's decided (or post it here), and I'll put up a countdown timer on the J2O frontpage.

[Stijn]

Level pack up: http://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/6107/anniversary-bash-12-files/

Please download before playing, so not to put too much pressure on the server.

[DanZeal]

The bash server will be started 00:00 GDT+1 tonight!

[FQuist]

If there's no information on what has and has not been decided, it's hard to provide feedback. Provide discussion points if you need any.

[snzspeed]

What version of plus is the bash server using?

Also which gamemode comes first?

[DanZeal]

Seems like we will be using the old version.

And battle will be the first gamemode hosted.

[FSHero]

Excuse my ignorance, but does old version mean "1.23"? And can 1.24 clients connect to 1.23?

Myself and my brother Mik look forward to seeing everyone at AB12 -- thanks for organising this!

[DanZeal]

It means that it will be hosted with an old version of JJ2+.
You will still be able to join with either 1.23 or 1.24 with or without plus.
Even if it´s recommended to use plus.

[Pako]

Oh man can't wait to join the bash this year

And completely fail at simple tasks because I've played too much Team Fortress 2

And constantly complain about the lack of "item drops"

[FireSworD]

The update was updated so now bash can use new +?

[EvilMike]

The update was updated so now bash can use new +?

As long as the host runs it, yeah.

Also note, if the server sticks with the old version, users who update might see the "your version is incompatable warning" but that's not going to cause any problems.

[FQuist]

So, is Danzeal still going to host the bash? It's been started.

(We're running on an alternative server now)

[DanZeal]

Seems like there was a missunderstanding with one admin of mine.
Thanks Sfaizst for saving the day.

[ShadowGPW]

releasing ML Pipedown right now! :-)

[Crazy Rabbit]

FAWFUL RULEZ!!! ;)

Happy Birthday JJ

[FireSworD]

Seeing as how there's a demand for an encore for the bash battle pack, I've thought that we should have a bash afterparty. Should we host all the obtainable bash packs in order from earliest to most recent?

Ofcourse, the server would have to alternate the packs a lot faster. This isn't the only idea, as some people brought up using special levels for the afterparty with or without the bash packs.

Thoughts?

[Ragnarok!]

We could do the best 2 levels from each year or something similar?

[FawFul]

good idea, but note that it takes time to find out which are the 'two best ones'. maybe not even possible, the whole bash is stuffed with quality.
