This would only lead to people making alliances though IM

I agree with Measure. If I'm going to get allied against, I want to see it transpire in chat, so I can react and or counter-ally.

I whole heartedly disagree.

I feel that diplomacy is part of the game.
Thats one of the aspects that I enjoy.

It seems every sort of play style wants their OWN Tables. Each table with a diffrent set of rules. I'm not for a half dozen tables that are the exact same except If Ryan lets Users create their own tables and set the rules for that particular game.
But as the system stands now I disagree.

As it is it is often difficult to get a 2000 game together, we don't need any further dispersal of players.

No, no, don't, bad, wrong.

I wasn't asking if you weren't interested in the idea. I know many people won't be. But I don't see the big problem with making a table or two for the people who are interested in it.

Personally, I think it's paranoid to worry about IMs. People who would be IMing alliances could make agreements before the game, too. You can't stop that sort of thing. I don't have anyone's IM address here, though.

Meatbomb, OK, suppose it wasn't a 2000 table.

I didn't expect everyone to like the idea, but I don't see why, just because you personally like the chat, you folks are against anyone being able to play without it.

Different tables for different play styles? Well, what's wrong with that?

learn to read dear qrs. meatbomb was obviously referring to the time you _already_ wait for a game to start. every idea that attracts some people will stop them from sitting down at other tables thus alot of unstartet games will be around an dspoil everybodies fast and dirty game fun.

I know how to read. I assumed that people who specifically play only on 2000 tables to begin with would not generally switch to a lower-ranked table to play without chat.

There are chat free ganes here:

I'd like to be able to turn off cuss words in the chat, or be able to filter out certain people in the chat. I got my mom hooked on Dice Wars but I'm afraid to introduce her to kdice for fear of all the flying poop. I'd also like to be able to mute people who are just being annoying or heckling the gameplayers, or begging over and over for second place.

I love the permissive attitude towards cursing. Love, love, love it. It really makes the immature morons who can't think of anything better to say stand out.


Like me. :)
