I have an idea. What if the Battle Server would be hosted as multi-version server? Noobs from 1.24 could come and fight with people on 1.23. No more boredom to them, and people on 1.23 would benefit too because they would have more people to shoot at. I know this is already possible.

When you make a multi-version server, do the sprites get converted when you use Carrotade so that both 1.23 version and 1.24 version players can see right ones? Probably not. I suggest to make a program for hosting multi-version servers that would do that and make it easy to host them.

I don't really see how this will improve them. The battle server is full of 1.23 noobs anyway.

"someone please host a hotel or test"

Why can't I use caps?

If noobs will play against noobs they will get better with time.

On a serious note, I wish you good luck with this. Don't get your hopes up though. The type of audience you're dealing with isn't exactly the type that strives to improve their playing skill.

And in case you didn't know that, a server utility is already being made. Starting another project to make such a tool is just pointless. Just wait for Neobeo to finish his Azure Moon server (if that is still its working title).

They're playing for fun, right? They don't have to work on improving their skills, they may just do it while they have fun playing.

most tsf players just want to play tests and hotels , when im bored and whant to play a test or hotel i can always count on tsf :P.

we have noobs on 1.23 anyway you know who they are il list them

noob 1.23 list:

fdviiofdijofij
fgiufgiufg
gokghoi
bolnlknmk
erurutu
ohojojo
j09kjoku0

seriosly we have noobs useing them names now.

so just let tsf carry on playing hotels and tests thats what they like best...

We've already got noobs on 1.23 who use names like geiorgbh2g5, as jamster said. Anyways, I'm pretty sure they enjoy playing against each other as the majority of players on TSF are around the average noob's skill level.

An extreme measure must be taken then. I need to create the "Super Battle Hotel". It will be a multiversion server (1.23+).

I suggested this to Mono as soon as I made the hack... unfortunately, he didn't like the idea

TSF people are never bored, because they have much more hosters and players in public servers than 1.23.

I normally play on 1.23 since TSF players are hosting even more boring servers. Better play on an inactive battle than on an active test! ;p

... Why? I'm pretty sure it's more fun to talk to people during a test than to silently seek down The Server ad nauseum.

yeah, 1.23 has lots of newbies these days. I've recently played (private server) against some people from my own country, who thought they were 1337 jj2 players. It didn't surprise me when they went on using shields in B1 and said that was the whole point. As expected, I've beaten them by far in all three battle levels.

Thats why we got to improve the quality of all players now :/
