Madness (Our House) [Quenched]

[cairnswk]

I do have another question though...are Dim and Wicked still appropriate for this map?
I'd like to replace the roses and Telvannia on the fountain.
The butterfly needs a revamp
and overall colours need one also
...in my eyes anyway

A small note if you're going to replace some names.
Remember to keep the territory list consistent with the current version, I mean everything has to be in the same order so if Wicked is the 10th territory in the list in the old xml and you will rename it "Joe",then Joe has to be the 10th territory also in the new version.

thanks tnb80 for that...still trying this out, but will keep that in mind
i won't do a revamp unless it can be done successfully.

[DoomYoshi]

I would agree with an update in the names. However, I like the doghouse bonus. Please keep it as is.

Thanks DoomYoshi. I think that will be kept.

Decisions:
1. flat map - not perspective
2. re-do the graphics
3. discuss the doghouse bonus more
4. update two names

Anyways...some progress while i have time...

[Ickyketseddie]

Be nice to see this revamped. I love the gameplay just how it is though i wouldn't change a thing. Doghouse imo works fine the way it is.

Could run some sort of comp/tourney for the neighbours names?

Dog House

[knowman]

First time I've played on this map. I'd like to add my vote to making the DogHouse Neutral to begin with, if there's an update. And if there's voting.

[greenoaks]

could the 4 names at the bottom be updated to reflect our house now ?

Agreed.

Nothing wrong with the doghouse.

I don't know why some people get so excited about someone dropping a +1 bonus. Yeah, maybe this time it was your opponent. Maybe next time it will be you. It's nice to drop a bonus every now and then, and +1 is hardly overwhelming. It's much better than another damn neutral that nobody will ever take except in 6-player flat rate.

[koontz1973]

Yep. leave the dog house in the mix. As for names, I would say to leave them as they are.

[chapcrap]

I agree with greenoaks about the names. It would be a fun update to the maps like this and Clandemonium, to have updated territory names with the changing CC community.

I talked to Kabanellas not too long ago, and he said at the moment Clandemonium won't be updated (I even offered to change the XML!)

i am quite willing to update the names, that's why i ask for suggestions folks.

Probably won't fit but bigWham for Lack or just Wham, BMO for Andy, Nobodies for DIM, Blake for wicked.

Two of those people don't have avatars to use!

Can we create the avatars? Suggestions?

I feel like the avatars on the map should be somewhat nostalgic to the person that it is portraying (ie, lack ALWAYS used the turtle, andy ALWAYS used Curious George)

Just slapping a picture to represent a person I think is a bit silly because no one will understand the references.

What about asking the people concerned what they would like to have themsleves represented by?

If it's used as their avatar, sure. Personally, that's what made Lack, Andy, Wicked and DiM really pop on that map because it's also what I saw in the forums whenever they posted.

[koontz1973]

An idea for you over this. How about letting the entertainment team run a competition with the winner going on for wicked.

As for ideas on names, here are two for you.
nobodies - always a gheko
gilligan - always seen him as a pirate.

BMO would be an easy add, but not sure about bigwham.

[cairnswk]

i'd started a revamp of the graphics some time ago...
so if we go down this road, i think it would be an idea to revamp this also.

That would be totally up to you. It would have to go through the graphics stage again. If you do this, start a new thread and we can get it bumped up to the Main Foundry so you can get the graphic revamp done. Then once everything is good to go and it passes, then we'll merged the two threads.

[Gilligan]

I'm totally for a graphic revamp. While I like it the way it is, it has great potential. Especially now cause you've done 100 maps since this one.
