Re: People who use other peoples names

I will not make it a public scandal.
There are also people on it that I just don't LIKE, they didn't really do something wrong, they are just a nuisances.

Re: People who use other peoples names

Personally, I would be quite sad if someone used my name. I have never seen it happen, never heard of it happening, but it might have.
Still, I doubt it. It's not even like I play that much.
"Ben" is a really common name, though. I hope no one joins the community who's name is "Ben" and/want to use the name "Ben."

If you think about it, my entire identity to most of you guys is that three letter word (and my avatar, I guess). You see it on the forum, and you get a mental picture of me or recall my personality and that is who I am to you.
If someone else were to use my name, they could bluff you all for a long, long time. It wouldn't be too hard to copy someone else's online personality and get away with it.
But this goes for most anybody, really. I'm still not afraid of it happening to me; though.

Great, I've jinxed myself! :P
Is this really ben?? be careful, guys, it could be an impostor!

You need not worry, nobody would come up with your name, unless they randomly tapped the keyboard.

Grom Hellscream, missspelt Krom is a major character from Warcraft III/World of Warcraft universe and thus millions of kids might easily pick this guy as their KaM name.

he seemed real enough to me.
This caykroyd was me, though... Well, in the end we lost because batoonike tried a new tower making strategy and it didn't work out well (he made no troops, only towers), and because this "sda" was newbie... before he could make ANY troops, he was vanquished :D
then, there was the fact that ATOMIC is a retarded ass. DO NOT PLAY WITH HIM. The game began and he drew his name in "plough fields", then made the schoolhouse+restaurant and quit. Luckily an enemy also quit so it was 3v3. As only I had troops, we didn't survive long until the enemies stormed our towers with militia then came in with a bunch of knights.
So if it wasn't really the batoonike, the real one can come forward and say, but i'm pretty sure it was, as he mentioned some things from the forum :wink:

Re: People who use other peoples names

Lol it's me. I was fooling around with mass towers and it worked horribly on this map, since chokepoint distance was very long and stone very low.

We lost because opponent team had 1 good player, who made lots of militia + crossbow + knights and couldve 3vs1 us easily. If the good player had also believed that archers counter towers, we would have been fine for another 2 hours. And Atomic is suicider.

Re: People who use other peoples names

No, they need the .bas file too.
.bas = A save of the entire game state before play started (includes the terrain, that's the biggest part)
.rpl = The commands players issued during the game such as placing buildings and moving troops.
.sav = The most recent state of the game. Not required for replays.

When you view a replay, the game loads the .bas file and then execute commands from the .rpl file as the game goes.
This format might change later, I think it's a bit confusing to have 3 files.

@Lewin, wouldn't it be nice to have a "fast forward" when viewing replays??

How about using F8? Or F11 and then click 300X?
