Mume.net - LOG: Fingeror is linklesskiller!

Jocke

2000-09-11 15:13:42

NOT LINKLESS. learn english, christ.
Try to separate LINKLESS and LAG. Also you failed a bob at slow so not likely you
would have survived even if you didn't lag. But then again, if you lag you
can't blame anyone for killing you. I think you are spoiled with a too good link.
Thst might be how some americans have it at prime time.

Jocke's right.

Nerak

2000-09-11 15:21:50

Got to agree with Jocke here. You definitely had a shitty link, but you were clearly not linkless. And yes, Jocke, you are indeed correct. This is how MUME looks to me 90% of the time. Thus my penchance for avoiding darkies :-)

Drax

2000-09-11 15:25:43

whats the big difference between FREEZEKILLED or LINKLESSKILLED? I didnt have
link (didnt see whats happenening nor my commands went through at right time),
period = linklesskilled.
(I didnt say any bad words to you, Jocke, so why you use rude words? (saying
'christ' is even worse than saying 'arsefaced_cocksucking_fatherfucker' or
something similiar.))

No clap to Fingeror here, but this was not a linklesskill :(
Linkless kill is where you lose the link, freezekill OH YES!

Stormblast

Aye, bolted from wounded to dying...

Lochdale

2000-09-11 15:43:25

Technically Jocke is right, was not linkless kill but that sure does look like a familiar link. Its a shame that true parity can never be achieved in mume so that only the more skillful ppl would win but then thats the nature of the net and links will be links.

Reivax

2000-09-11 15:51:32

You're saying Fingeror has no skill?

MIlliardo

2000-09-11 15:57:12

Well, its looks to me that you were in pretty bad shape at slow etc..
As saying goes, at least for me...if i Lag, I'm going out at my own
risk cause I never can tell when a freeze will come unfortunately :<
No linkless kill here i'm afraid

Welcome to my world, Drax ;)

Adds to exitement, doesn't it ?

Zorgoth

No fucking .se ever gonna spare u linkless or freezing anyway. Since theyre not afraid of becoming victims of such thing themselves they really dont care.

Axel

2000-09-11 16:32:08

the problem is that lotsa ppl drop link on purpose when they see they loose - I
am sure Drax isnt one of those, but it is hard to draw the line - same happened
to my fullsetted bn - link was perfect - i enter room with snick and major freeze
- I recon hurt lost arm and was dead pretty quick ... well, eventhough I was
pretty pissed there isnt anyone to blame really

Glader

2000-09-11 16:39:21

Nothing to do about it, lagkill isnt as lame as linklesskilling. By far.

Nazgum

2000-09-11 16:40:07

There is no difference between being frozen or being linkless,
either way the player has lost control of his character in
the game. I let anyone go if they lag or lose link, most
people only let those survive if they have flag, but most
people are losers.

Relim

2000-09-11 16:41:30

Shrug, you wouldn't've survived anyway with failed bob, while yelling bad link shows you still HAVE link, hence by pure default it ain't a linkless kill. Freezekills, as someone else above said, is something that many of us have to live with; whining like a spoilt 6 year old doesn't impress. And 'christ' ain't a bad word (unless you some sorta freak) - yet did you not use 'bad language' in your descrip (albeit *'d out?)
And didn't hypocrisy used to be a big word to you? ;) Doesn't seem to mean anything to you now...
Andandand...

Duvel

2000-09-11 16:52:41

Fuck you all, only the people with insta 10ms link kill linkless, or people who are killed linkless to often. It is hard to recognize a frozen player, if he is still spamming commands. You cannot blame Fingeror i think.

I know how it is to die linkless.

nushenak

2000-09-11 16:54:11

i totally agree with nazgum here!
i cant say people should do this and shoudl do that but i can say what i think is right and wrong, and killing some1 that is lagged/linkless is in my point of view kinda lame

Focus

2000-09-11 16:59:54

*Comfs*

I played from freezing link last month or so, caused me 10 deaths I think. (+ 5, where I was killed with skill/luck). Dont take it so hard, come back, and BN's will roam Arda again.

Cant applaud to what Fingeror did, but must agree, that some people play from shitty links and therefor it IS hard to draw the line. So, it is a matter of concience.

And join RealBNs (tm): take risks, enjoy game, avoid looser-pukes & never kill any1 with linktrouble i.e do what you wish others did to you.

c u, the great one.

Unknown

2000-09-11 17:15:34

well, he IS linklesskiller. Just NO flag means NO linkless for him. Thats all.

Galdor

2000-09-11 17:24:23

Why do you even have a discussion about this? A linkless/lagging person is a freebie. If you let him live its up to you.

Alcion

2000-09-11 17:46:38

Jocke du är en taskmört och det vi alla! Du vet nog allt vad jag menar.

Lochdale

2000-09-11 17:54:46

Was not commenting on Fingeror's skill. He is a very good player and a decent chap. But I prefare playing at night U.S. time because I usually play against players with the same link and its more fun. (Also not because I dislike Europeans, which I don't as I am one...just living in Chicago). If the difference between links is so vast, well then it really isn't much fun imo.

Stormblast

2000-09-11 18:42:55

Spared Fingeror's ass today when he yelled that he was freezing after global linkloss. I guess time will tell if he is able to pay it back some day to someone. To Drax: this is how these guys pk, they outlink ppl. They kill ppl
that cannot walk fast enuf out of their spells. So when they see you cannot
escape their spam, they get this message lit up in their head: "strategy successful!"

Rogon

2000-09-11 18:45:01

I never kill anyone without them confirming that they have a link below 100ms first, i mean, otherwise it's so unfair.

Dorak

2000-09-11 18:56:45

Someone yelling 'freezing' is enough of a reason for me to at least STOP my killing attempt and inquire wtf is wrong, since that might be the only cmd he got in and after that is linkless. Happened to me lots of times, died of it lots of times too.

Nazgum

2000-09-11 19:11:43

btw cute of Jocke to tell someone they are too spoiled link
and should learn to deal with freeze. This from jerk with
swede lab link. very cute.

wish more players were more fair about mume's current link issue,
not everyone has a stable link and the game is fun, so people
wish to play it, even if perhaps they might freeze during pk.
People fighting them should understand this and try to help
them out, it is a game. I follow this policy and i also lag
a lot, perhaps that's why, and why swedes will never do so :(

nushenak

2000-09-11 19:55:38

you are not fair when you say that swedes never save people when lagged linkless cause i know many that do (me for xample) =)

Nazgum

2000-09-11 20:13:30

I'd like to hear name of a swede who doesn't linkless
kill, even just one, because i know of none.

And i choose sweden to pick on cause they have in general
best link in the game so they should be kinder to those
who don't, yet they don't do so, they are assholes to them.

Lochdale

2000-09-11 20:19:29

Not sure I would pick out Swedes as a group who are particularly bad. If the Americans had the best link then I am sure that they would abuse the hell out of it to and would do all of the same things. If I had such a fast link that I could insta track it would rock and I would probably not give a shit and kill all a la Rogon. Therefore, as I stated earlier, I try to play at night to avoid such link disparity. It isn't fair to single out Swedes because they are no better, or worse, then anyone else.

Tror

2000-09-11 20:46:42

Vanimelde saves linkless/linkfrozen, has heppened to me lots anyway.

Uldrak

2000-09-11 21:10:05

laff, pathetic log can't see why u bothered posting it. Not like fingeror
did anything wrong your the one who did something wrong by playing in lag.

Mouser

2000-09-11 22:03:49

Oh boy here we go again ... things getting pretty ridiculous....... but
not surprising. Used to be people bitched about true linkless flagged kills
then about linkless kills not flagged ..... now we whine when you die with
a touch of lag *ack* You didnt even freeze.
Yes it sucks when lag hits but its part of the game. Galdor nailed it though
'A linkless/lagging person is a freebie. If you let him live its up to you.'
I certainly never expect to be spared but if I am I am thankful.
Golden Rule: Link is everything!

I am curious about Rogon's lag macro that measure his opponents lag. I hope my
200 ms link bn runs into you :)

I personally never kill anyone with faster than 300 ms link...
...mostly because I can't ;) (not much better against those with slower links either)

nushenak

2000-09-11 23:12:01

nazgum, please say 1 single moment when i killed a linkless/lagged please do it!
i dont knwo hwo many i saved cause they linkless/lagging etc i wish those who i saved remember it and save others in the same situation
and for fucks sake i am a swede nazgum =)

Daevia

2000-09-11 23:16:21

And Mume has changed how in the past 7 years?
When I lose link I expect to die (with or without flag).
Why is this? Because after playing my early years on a 14.4 dialup
that disconnected regularly every hour or so, I learned that nobody
gives a shit if they linkless kill you. And I got used to it after
about the 400th linkless death. Oh, you still whine and bitch, but
you care less every time.
Nobody ever spared me linkless, so stop bitching.

Btw whoever died up in log, it isn't that hard to miss a single yell
in the spam of a battle. I don't know most people that can read fast
enough to keep up with the massive amount of spam generated by a lot
of fights.

So stop bitching.

Slidar

2000-09-11 23:17:51

I have a rocking 340ms US link. Does that entitle me to yell LAGGING when I encounter the enemy to see if they are nice? Probably means I shouldn't PK, but I do anyway and enjoy the victories and shrug off the defeats.

Pampalini

2000-09-11 23:19:27

When your link is fucked, u have to trap trap trap ... Ohh and comforts - it was same as if u were linkless - watching how you die and can do nothing sucks.

Hail Butrus he saved me when i was having some serious link problmes. Hug Butrus :)

Spellbinder

2000-09-11 23:46:01

whenever i get a freeze i don't link drop right away, hoping that it's
a minor freeze especially in a pk situation, for fear that if i droplink
it gives the linkless killers additional time to whack me, while I kill
the current link and bring tintin up again and reconnect, ie type tt++,
then binding for mume server,then char name,then account pword, then pword...
then again my link i constantly get minor 5 sec freezes, and only rarely that
big 30 sec or more freeze. 5 secs still plenty of time to kill ya though.

Antar

2000-09-12 04:55:24

Hmm... I got a 600ms link... Doesn't stop people from killin' me. =)
It must be embarassing to die to me if you're solo. =X
Well, shit happens is all I can say. Being an AOL-user, my link's never stable, and lag visits often. But I don't believe I've ever been killed linkless, except maybe once, one another char. But other than that, it's never happened, and I don't believe i know what it feels like. Now if it was a freeze into sunrip for Troll, any level, then I'd be upset. No offense, but I dunno how to react to this sorta thing.

Ethar

2000-09-12 05:48:07

he didnt kill you linkless, sure you were lagged, i mean, but you cant really blame jocke. If you want to be nice like stormblast, go ahead, i applaud you, but you cant expect people to spare you just cause you lagged. *comf*

Reef

2000-09-12 06:58:23

Lalala, silly log but interesting to read all the comments. As an Australian I feel that I have a legitimate gripe when it comes to link and the repurcussions of said link. Firstly, you were going to die anyway, no two ways about it, you failed BOB and you had Fingeror and Grunganator on you...goodnight. Secondly, I dont understand why you would label Fingeror a linkless killer on this evidence, lets see you spam fled a bit, he chased and did a pretty good job and after your yell (which he may well have missed) it took one bolt from wounded to dead. If thats linkless killing then bloody hell, I have never been killed with a link! Anyone who has ever killed me is a linklesskiller!! ARGH!! You take the chance of playing when your link is bad and you pay for the consequences, whether that be dying to pukes before you even see the pukes, or sundying your troll because you cant log back on and you are standing ford. Shit happens, get over it and quit bitching. If you want to keep complaining when you have small freezes, I will gladly have you come play from my place and you can see what a bad link is really all about. Ohh btw, as my link is never under 600ms I expect all of you to take it easy on me...*nod self*.

Skojardu

Sheesh im a swede with bad link and got linkless killed
So did khwaj so shut the fuck upthat all the swedes got good link
Get a clue before accusing people

Moonshade

2000-09-12 10:45:56

That reminds me what happened with my fullsetted orc.
I lost link near NOC fine, reconnect after 1 min awful _unengaged_, Fingeror
fast sprays me dead... It wasnt linkless kill, right?

Rumburak

2000-09-12 22:59:58

If I know my victim is experienced player and he is not leaving from my bolts I kinda
figure that he has link problems and then I try to check how is his link before I continue.
Sad is if he dies to 1 spell, but I guess nothing can be done about that.

But I guess you can't expect it from Fingeror, since he thinks he has so rocking link and
fast spells that not even experienced player can leave from his spells, or maybe he just
thought you are some clueless bn. Maybe if you dropped link he would spare you, but
probably not since he thinks he is so rocking that you would not flee from him even
with link.

Unknown

2000-09-13 00:32:59

Remeber, Fingeror is the ppl who had his bn demoted for cheating so do not expect any mercy from a person like him.

Jocke

2000-09-13 08:47:30

Reef really hit the spot here. Drax was apamming and hence fled all over and
i was on him with pierce, quick bolts. There was no way i could tell if he had 20,
200 or 10000 ms link, they all act the same. I also missed the yell made by Drax
in the spam. I might have a fast link, but i'm still just human. I can't make
every desicion right and i'm not allways able to read every single line on my
screen.

Do ppl excpect others to reason: Hmm what kind of link do this guy have? Oh shit,
i have 100 ms better link then this guy, i must spare his life..? Where do i draw
the line? when is it ok to kill, when is it not? It is all a sujective desicion
made in splits of seconds. sometimes you let them live, sometimes they die.

I have been linkless killed by all kind of nationalities. Swedes, americans,
finns, estonians, you name it. Blaming swedes like Nazgum does just shows a
very immature way of resoning. I thought this guy had a higher intellect.

I have killed linkless ppl but 99% of the time it was accidental, not noticiing
he was linkless, not beeing able to cancel a spell that was stored etc. It is
very hard to tell if somone is linkless or not in a spam. Especially if your mind
is 100% set on killing. We have all killed linkless and we will all kill linkless
again. If not intentional, by accident. I'm sertain nazgum has done too. (anyone?)
I don't see why Drax here is any special from the rest of us.

If i however notice somone is linkless he will not die. I think, just as you,
that linkless killing, is a sad aspect of the game. I will also save ppl yelling
they are freezing or laging badly. This i have allways done, and this i will
continue to do. Everyone who knows me also knows this.

Rumburak, do you have any clue how fast a quick bolt is with staff? I would say
about as fast as a burn from a bn. And yes, Drax might aswell be a cluless player
to me, i have no idea what so ever who he is. also, he WAS leaving from my spells
as you might notice, if you read the log.

Rumburak

2000-09-13 13:59:32

Of course I know how fast your bolts are. Combined with your link its truely hard to leave from them
since often they get in before the victim gets message about you starting to cast. :-)

I didnt accuse you of intentional linkless killing or anything similar.
But if you wanted to care about your victims' link you would notice their yells
containing word "linkless".

Hint: #mark linkless=white on red

Once 1 of my chars (orc shaman) and another shaman died from full hps to you and Galdor
above hatch linkless (without flag of course, was no linkdrop implemented yet).
So its just not first time I see someone died lagged to you, can't say how much obvious
was it, but killing 2 idle orcs above hatch surely gives time to figure.

If you have such link don't play.. or if you do play
just drop link and die really linkless so you can save us from the spam 8P
*comfs* anyways! bad link hurts.. thats true
