Shocking leaked image shows spirit of compromise on p99 in A/A's absence!

High end game pixels were never something everyone can get. thats classic. deal with it.

Wrong. Enforced rotations were classic and high end pixels were available to everyone because of that - The classic PnP that was introduced in 2000 ensured sharing and guilds that didn't follow the rules were disbanded. The FTE racing here is the opposite of classic.

I will not alt tab jump race. It's illegal. I've watched videos of my guys with a distinct first off the line advantage, jumping, strafing, catching all the air at the right corners and still somehow this mid air glitchy iksar monk comes soaring overhead while having slight epileptic airborn seizures to get FTEs.

For some reason we only see this on Eashen, Vulak and Dozekar. I don't see it too often on other mob races.

Iksar eh.. Maybe your boys r not using the right items to fte? .. Cause some clicks have different ranges.. I remember a vulak where ghoul got fte over Aikons? All by timing a jump when Aikons was actually ahead of him..
But AM has beat us numerous times to eashan. And you can too. You gotta stop making petty excuses though on why you should actually 'try'.

Gonna have to agree with kagey on this one, gotta at least try, maybe now that the casuals have been showered with pixels they will want more!

I do get and understand your frustration with getting a solid jump and strafe running just to get passed by an alt tabber. but its the world of FTE races. adapt or lose

[Wonkie]

does CSG even keep timers on NTOV mobs?

[Mud]

The raid scene has come a long way, and imo the current rules are pretty generous compared to how things use to be (not saying the current ruleset is ideal, though). Trip down memory lane, anyone?

- 96 hour windows with extended variance.
- No FTE yellow text -- GMs had to announce who had FTE after the mob was dead.
- Tracker, FTE'er, and puller were often the same player.
- The mob had to be pulled straight to your camp once FTE'd -- no one hour grace period. Engages happened in minutes.

Also, shame on those of you in this thread that made Classic and Kunark hell that are trying to paint yourselves in a new light. You know who you are.

Anything that gives someone an advantage in a race is illegal. It's the same reason crown of riles were removed from racing. I just ask Braknar for confirmation and received this information.

This needs to be posted and confirmed by a GM in the Raid Discussion forum for all to see. As I'm sure you remember, rules being created on the fly in Skype and often only being known to the top guilds has historically been a major problem on P99.

Awesome. Lost tons of FTEs to that +50 range on slowstones. Ban this filth.

He just misunderstanding (or misrepresenting, though I honestly don't think so)discussion he dug up from the era.

We just hashed it out here:

Dro had rotations in tov... with 2 guilds only. Hoss & Vindication.

It was releasing of new expansions that allowed lower guilds to enter tov when those 2 guilds left to do luclin.

This was not GM enforced rotations, it was created by the guilds.
