Subj : Re: Re:Some of you will hate me but oh well ;p To : All From : Dr. Bad Date : Fri Jan 03 2003 09:02 pm Actually, the last 2 years running the gameop copped significant flack because the advertised edits on the web page didn't match those in the game. Figuring out what the gameop s up is not fun. Its just plain frustrating. With the .twa file there can be no ups. Dr. Bad >From a message by Vader about Re: Re:Some of you will hate me but oh well ;p: > I agree. Part of the fun is figuring it out as you go.

HHT,USO,WTC and Bote were all played and dominated by players that didn't have the .TWA file. Everytime a .TWA file is released...add 3 months to the game. Not offense, they go defensive after the first 3 weeks. USO lasts 2 months. Play it out, and see who adapts the best. > > > > I for one congratulate Silver for not releasing the .TWA file.
