Anniversary Bash VI

Any volunteers who'd like to put together the level packs for Jazz2's sixth birthday? Or people who'd like to host the servers? Please apply here and we'll contact you.

I'd like to help in some way. I could host servers, but I ping about 2/5 of the time. The other 3/5, I can host pretty fast 512K servers. Or I could help gather levels. Either way.

I can make some battle levels. Just be warned that i'm new around here, but I had Jazz2 for 5 years.I don't feel like hosting, since I can't. (Stup listserver error.)

If you want some battle levels, just contact me. I'll make 2 or 3.

Battle and CTF levels will probably be gathered from the J2O downloads, and the picks will be the best of 2003-2004. At least, that is what I would expect.

Therefore if you think levels worthy (and trust me, worthyness to be in an ABash is tough), I would upload them to j2o first.

If I may be so bold, I think this year's ABash celebration should be themed, at least in portion, around Jazz1. This is, after all, Jazz1's 10th anniversary. So some battle levels based on Jazz1 tilesets would be good, in my opinion, which indeed is all that was.

My two cents.

Maybe Epic is planning something, like Sega when Sonic had his 10th anniversary? Surely not.

I'd be willing to do something again.

I selfishly nominate Bob to host. His ISP is among the fastest in the world and I am fully jealous of him.

Well, I have a lot of Violet conversions. I'll do a few.

My idea was that the levels I made would be exclusively for the ABash. I've made some levels before, and people said they were very good, ableit small. So i'll work on larger levels. (Like 110 x 110.)

If you want me to make some battle levels, i'll make a few. If not, i'll be depressed, but i'll make the levels anyway.

If you do make levels, we can not guarantee they will be in the pack. The person who will make the level packs will have too choose as many levels as possible, with tilesets pretty much everybody has. So we can make sure there will be no download lag.

I've been working on on a little CTF level here and there, but if anyone likes I'll actually work on it and it'll be done by AB6.

It may be just me, but there seems to be a huge shortage of
new, A-Bash quality battle levels.


So for anyone who says they want to try and make
CTF levels for the event, I strongly suggest focusing on battle.

I can make some battle levels (with jj1 sets if requested) although I cannot assure acceptable quality and completion on time, since rushing levels = not good. I'll make some anyways, heck with it. Other than that, I can contribute to help compile the AB pack, but I doubt I'll have time to do it alone. Just contact me via PM (if my JCF inbox is full use j2o), MSN, mIRC or just jj2.

And I don't really have anything else to add, having not made any levels in the past year... ;___; But I'll be there!

There are many new good levels like Waterfall Caves, Galactic Warfare, The Zerox Factory, Medieval Skyscrapers, Distopia (never seen it in any AB), Heavenly Havoc, Another Kind of CTF, All Your Base CTF, Moree Mines, Jungle's Edge, and many other levels I don't remember.

Mike doesn't like Distopia, and Mike's word is gold. I personally think I've seen Distopia enough times for the next few years, so I vote that it isn't included in the next Anniversary Bash pack. Same with Diamondus Warzone.

Distopia has been in nearly a thousand AB's. Or at least it seems like that. I know at least that it was included last year, and probably the year before. DW is a perrenial, but not one which I'd keep in water.

Maybe a DW modification at best, like Mini DW or enozraW sudnomiaD (mirrored DW), just to confuse everyone.

JJ2's Birthday is April 9th. This year the 9th falls on a Friday, so that looks like good timing for the weekend.

I'm not sure if this has been done or not, but if it hasn't, how about an upside down DW?

Not from what I can tell. I was planning on making it, but I didn't feel like doing all of the work. If you're going to make it, don't bother using the textured background with the upside-down Diamondus set.

I wasn't aware there was an upside down Diamondous set.
How about DW converted to the JJ1 Diamondous set? Just throwing ideas around...

I'd like to point out that using custom tilesets for the bash (-)sn't a good idea because the players who don't have them already will have to download them from the servers. Causing download lag or possibly a server crash.

I tried making an up-side down Diam set once but it was pretty mighty hard.

So, any people with real fast connections that want to host?

I volunteer to host.

I just got cable (3 mbit), probably the first one in my area to,
so it should be pretty fast.
