Title: If I build it, will you come?
Post by: Jack1 on December 20, 2013, 12:09:02 am

I'm contemplating wether or not I should get my own server that the community can do events in. The question is, if I build it will you come?

A major issue that would have to be resolved is the xp distribution or lack thereof to the participants. If you can get a good deal on that then it could work out.

Best of luck

There won't be any new server connections for now!

Alright, it's time to get some more c-RPG servers connected to optimize the gaming experience for everyone.
This time we use the Shotgun method and connect every server that fulfills the basic requirements.

Your server will be a one month test phase to see how it works out, we might reconsider this in 30 days if it horribly fails.

I will be your main contact for everything related to this, you can reach me on IRC (http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=mount%26blade-crpg) or PM me on the forums.
If you use IRC (http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=mount%26blade-crpg) please make sure you don't ask if i am there but just state your whole question so i can answer it when i read it.
Also always add your forum name so i can PM you if you leave IRC (http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=mount%26blade-crpg) before i answer.

We reserve the right to terminate your server's database connection at any time without giving a reason.

Basic Requirements:
MUST BE RUNNING WSE.
Static IP as well as a stable connection.
No home-hosted servers.
Server name must include it's location in some way i.e. city name or country or region.
At least 20 slots and we won't allow alot of servers that small.
No Password - Servers have to be public at all times - auto passwording when the server is full is allowed.
Admin Team ready to go, aware of the rules and willing to enforce those (feel free to contact our current admins if you want them to have an eye on your server).
Being aware that every clan/individual only gets one shot at running your own server - if you screw up your server will get disconnected from the DB - no chance to get reconnected.
Common sense - if it feels like you are doing something wrong - ask if it is ok or don't do it.
Use IRC (http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=mount%26blade-crpg) if in doubt.
Everyone will have the freedom to set their own rules on their server except for some basic core rules we will globally apply for ALL servers that are connected to the database.

To get started you send me a PM with the following information for every server you want to connect.
Before you do so you have to start up your server with it's intended name and have it running until the connection process is finished.
If the Server is already running please make sure you restart it twice before you contact me.

The PM Subject must be "[Server] YourServerName" and include the following information (you can just copy paste the list below):

Server name:
Static IP of the server:
Size (player slots):
Name of the person running the server (ingame&forum):
Name of the clan running the server (if you are in a clan):
Names of all admins (ingame&forum):
Your own rules in addition to ours:
Reason why you want your own server:
It will most likely take a few days before you get an answer to your PM, this will happen after the server got connected and will ask you to restart the server once to finish the connection process.

Core Rules
These apply to every connected server and will lead to a disconnection from the database if they are not enforced or are broken by the admins themselves.

Common Sense
No exploiting of any kind
NOT OK: Bypassing the autobalance
NOT OK: Using a bug to gain undeserved benefits
No intentional teamwounding/teamkilling
No malicious griefing of teammates (kickspamming, blocking, etc.)
No leeching
OK: Being a bad player and getting no kills
NOT OK: Standing around away from keyboard. If you're away, switch to spectator mode
NOT OK: Running around naked without weapon. Not contributing is leeching, naked runners don't contribute.
NOT OK: Autorunning your char to enemy to die

If we find your server to not be administrated properly and people exploiting/leeching/griefing on it for a considerable time or admins breaking these core rules we will contact you and reconsider the database connection.

Please only contact me if the server is already running in the way it will be after the connection.
If you need help setting up a Warband server running c-RPG - there is a guide here (http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,5960.0.html) and another one here (http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?topic=113653.0) on the Taleworlds forum.
Maybe someone feels like writing a complete guide on setting up a server on our guides forum.

Yep, no xp/gold on private server, never again.

the point of the server would not be another way for people to get xp/gold. the point of the server would be to have a place were people could have organized events. you can have that still.

I will come

XP and gold are not needed. We should do this so we can have events like the GOBBLIN kings failed tournament

I think it'd be cool but honestly, this game doesn't have enough events (what, one a year?) to justify it. It would be cool though if you could have it set up as like a deathmatch or team deathmatch server or something (with xp!) while theres not an event going on, and then can set it up for events whenever one happens. Otherwise I don't think it'd get hardly any use.

NA server
Try to find the same provider as the other NA servers
40 ish slots?

Not really being utilised in EU right now and not quite finished (cosmetic stuff mainly) but if you provide a longterm server then NA clans are welcome to register in the clan League Tenne set up - http://46.32.229.176/Chris_Project/Tournament_Website/index.php.

Since it is an ELO style system with no set fixture list then NA clans would not have to fight EU clans and could have their own prizes. Once Tenne gets some time we'll be able to split the table properly between NA and EU as well.

Fundamental rules would have to be the same as EU (A match is 8 rounds on one of the official native maps with a spawn switch half way through) but the other restrictions we use are negotiable since they are really just a default set of rules that clan captains can use if they can't agree on their own rules for a specific match.

Let me know if you are interested because I'd rather this get used by NA, than it continue to be ignored by lazy EU folk (myself included)

Yes, Jack. Do it for California because best coast is on the west coast.

30 was a good number and 10 dollars cheaper. Was only a few people who donated outside of Raven back when we were running it. If you can get a some solid contributors it'd be awesome but good luck with that.
