CANCELLED: Tetrinet. THE BATTLE! Started by: ScipitaRourke on Dec 01, '09 14:23

Tetrinet, the battle.

For some of you old skool people, you know directly what I am on about when I say tetrinet.
For some of you youngsters... be prepared because I am going to introduce you to a whole new addiction!

TETRINET.

Tetrinet is basicly multiplayer tetris, you compete eachother as individuals but you can also work as teams and so on.
Before I explain you how and where to play it, I first like to explain the rules and such of the competition I'm holding.

It is free to sign up as individual or as a team or both.
Each team has to exist out of 3 players from the same home city.
This means I for example could never be in a team with Deimne.

From this moment on unill the 24th of December you've time to form teams and/or decide if you attend as an individual.
The tournament/competition will be held in the first weekend of January 2010. Saturday the 3rd for the individual battles and Sunday the 4th for the city battle.
Both tournaments will start at 15:00 and more information and such will be given once I know how many people decide to enter.

So prize money? Ha not a fucking clue! It all depends on how generous your crewleaders are going to be!
I am hoping they're all going to be generous and donate to this competition, if I can speak my mind freely... 250k-500k from each CL would be fantastic.
We have currently 29 crews, 29 times 250,000 is by Dutch Math 7,250,000... The gods allready informed to double the amount thats donated so if all goes well we're looking at a total prize pool of atleast 15 mil. As Il_Siciliano would say... WAHEY!

So... enough talk... let's get you addicted to tetrinet.

First you go to download this file: http://en.tetrinet.no/downloads.php?cat_id=1&download_id=1
(This version works on windows XP and VISTA, maybe also 7 nfi)
If you use something else have a look in this list: http://en.tetrinet.no/tetrinet-clients-download-1.php
Important thing is it should support TetriNET.

Once you've downloaded the client boot it up and click on "Client Settings"

Write down your IN GAME NAME, server = tetrinet.us and click TetriNET from the drop down menu, press connect and go to Party line.
There you want to type /list and you get to see what rooms there are (much like irc). You want to join a room of the ones below:

(3) #cookies [OPEN-0/6] (0) Classic w/ special [1:1]
(5) #cookiemonster [OPEN-0/6] (0) Classic w/ special [1:1]
(6) #cookiejar [OPEN-0/6] (0) Classic w/ special [1:1]
(7) #cookiecrumb [OPEN-0/6] (0) Classic w/ special [1:1]

Simply type /join #cookiejar and there you go. Click Start Game if you're player 1 or 2 and you're a go.
Best thing to do is talk to friends or irc you're starting up a game because you really need to practice this together.
IRC is your communication!

If you've any trouble configuring the client, joining rooms etc, ask in #divinelunacy or contact me, many people that can help you out.

See you all in #cookiejar!

Oh yes, donations please to QuizCashier :)

Report Post Tip

Have to be $7,000,000.

Grin is poor and BG repayments high.

(Ignoring the obvious fact that I am not very good)

Report Post Tip

Pfft, I would expected you would like this contest as one of those people belonging in the "old skool" category! 250k is peanuts... you don't want to look cheap now do you?

Report Post Tip

Ahhhh, the good old days!

Very enjoyable and addictive i must say.

*Remembers beating Izzy for IRC names* Good times.

Report Post Tip

I am cheap.

Looking cheap is far better than looking dead. Ask BoabyWanKenobi, he's been looking dead for years and what a hideous sight.

Report Post Tip

Shouldn't this be in the OOC forum? It being a out of character contest dealing with game money.

Report Post Tip

Sounds good! I'm go get a big team! :P

I think you should let anyone donate, bring the price up a little more ;)

Report Post Tip

Absolutely brilliant Scipita! Bring on the old rivalries!

Report Post Tip

Oh by all means, everyone is free to donate ofcourse, usually happens with trivia aswell :)
It's something that has to start from the users and if some effort is shown the gods will pick up on it.

So yes everyone feel free to join in the donating.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh PoisonousJelly love.... Should the SLUTS make a return? I'm sure I can find a few of the originals...


Scipita, you are an evil... EVIL woman. You do know this right?

Report Post Tip

The normal tetris is addicting. There is multiplayer now? O.O  Oh goodness I just may have to think about joining this!!

Report Post Tip

DirtyLittleSekrit! BRING BACK THE SLUTS!

Oh god that would be a damned good reunion.

I'll download now DirtyLittleSekrit. We can practice!

Report Post Tip

If any team needs one more member, give a yell, I love tetrinet :)

Report Post Tip

Team sluts for the win \o/

Report Post Tip

Ooooh I definately see some old rivalries popping up around here!

cow will be back on in a bit

Report Post Tip

I'm not sure how reliable this is, but my Norton 360 blocked me from that download twice. Claims it is a trojan horse ;/

~G~rin.

Report Post Tip

grin vs cow commencing in moments

Report Post Tip

It's a false positive Grin. I've checked it with a few different AVs.

Report Post Tip

If Kuro is a player here, he is the most incredible player of all time. Superhuman.
