Thanks.]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080712-193957 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080612-205841
Also a minor rule change. For disconnects or lag, it would be undecided if you were leading and left on your own turn else it counts as a loss. Some people report that if a person was scared he would do all he can to kill one piece then leave.

Now, the rule is your score has to be higher than your enemy for 3 turns in a row, in order for you to leave with an undecided. That means you have to keep your score higher than your enemy for 3 turns. Any way let me know how it turns out, thanks!]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080609-074719 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080530-001024 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080527-104217 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080525-002015
I heard one comment about the scores rewarding who plays the most. Well thats probably true for any game I made it even score for a win or loss. Members are are +- 10, and guests are +-5. It didn't affect the rankings much.]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080522-055625
+10 Win against a Gamebrew Member
-5 Loss against a Gamebrew Member
+3 Win against a Guest (tracked by IP)
-1 Loss against a Guest (tracked by IP)

To celebrate I was thinking of holding a mini-tournament with of course mini-prizes for the month of June? Prizes are in USD and PayPal ONLY. If you don't have PayPal and you win, you better find someone.

1st Place - $40
2nd Place - $20
3rd Place - $10

Let me know what you think, thanks!]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080521-180523 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080520-103132 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080519-214928
Side note the single player was broken for a day, its fixed now too.]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080519-170152
Anyway they didn't pay a single dime for all that work, not even in advertising. Plus they used my own server to host the SWF and multiplayer. Then a few months later, when I started to move servers, I checked and they didn't even tell me they stopped using the games. So I wasted hours of work and meetings, hosting of my servers, and I got nothing from it. Rant over, back to Tactics 100!]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080519-115018
IF YOU DON'T REFRESH TO V3.3 YOU WILL GET SYNC ERRORS!!!]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080519-092637
Reload your browser if you don't see version [V3.2].]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080518-105619 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080517-093727
Score = (wins*10) - (loss*5)

1) Everyone gets one world wide ranking #.
2) Gamebrew members can still play against non-members for points.
3) Matches from same IP address don't count (considered practice).
4) Every match is tracked by IP address or Gamebrew member ID.
5) You can rematch anyone, but it will overwrite previous results.
6) No more disconnects, you either win, lose or nothing.
7) The person who disconnects can NEVER win.
8) Private games count now, but rules above still apply.

If the person decides to leave in the middle of the game and they are down by even 1 point, its a loss for them and a win for you. If they leave and they are winning, they DO NOT win, but it's still a loss for you. If the score is exactly even, then nothing happens. If you don't like the results just do a private game and rematch. Hopefully this will make the game easier and more enjoyable. And it'll be fun to see how you rank against the world. We are still working on it so PLEASE let me know if any problems.]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080509-235022
IDEA #1
There will be no points or score awarded in LIVE. This stops the incentive to cheat (or play!?). You will begin the game by picking how good you are NEWBIE, ADVANCED or EXPERT. Whoever picked the same skill level is the one you'll be paired with.

IDEA #2
Along with number #1, players have the option of creating an account which will keep score in a database by matching your account with every single unique IP address you've played against and whether you won or lost. This will stop most cheating.

IDEA #3
Leave things the way they are!]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080118-134430
1) Chat bug fixed, still not 100% sure. When you hit Enter it would hilight the text and mess up. I haven't been able to reproduce this but I made some fixes to prevent something like this.

2) Fixed bug where the ending game screen would appear over the main menu.

3) If it's your turn and the enemy leaves you can finish your turn and take out more pieces and you still might win.

4) Disconnect ban, if it's a public game (not made using private game) and you leave the game before the game ends you will suffer a 3 minute ban from the entire server.]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080118-022907 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry080108-080616 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry071106-110208 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry071106-095215 http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry071004-085439 awards page.

Because of crappy server issues I moved providers and trying a new one, it looks like it's going to work out. Should be fully moved in a few days. Thanks!]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry070914-093706
1) Triple click fast on last unit ends 1P game
2) 1P/CPU tags on board were messed up
3) You can now retry 1P levels without penalty
4) CPU turn sped up by double]]> http://www.gamebrew.com/games/blogs/tactics100/index.php?entry=entry070912-214446
