Suggestion

Could you add a option to not see the message box that comes up after you have played an unregisterd player on the tracker? It's really annoying so go and buy pop-pop 😛

I don't think the message box is that bad. I mean 1 beep and a message, and press return to get rid of it..

More importantly, improve the tracker to feature a chat lobby and the ability to talk to someone privately. And after that, we need a feature to make it possible to view other people playing. That would be awesome. Pop-TV. Official matches. Pop-Sport. CPL events in Pop-pop.

The answer to the question is, obviously, 42!

The ability to save and see Replay files would be great, but if there were a way to watch the game "live" it might just eat up more bandwidth than it is worth.

Not if the data was uploaded to the tracker and then, from the tracker sent out to people.
In counter strike (halflife mod) thousands of people can watch the big matches with the use of such servers.

Yeah, that would be a great way of doing it.

However, I can't imagine thousands of people wanting to watch a pop-pop game. 😛

I would, I would! When I play people who are really good I'm too busy dying to get any sense of what they're doing; if I could watch a game between masters I'm sure I'd be able improve my game no end. Plus, it'd just be fun!

(me spel good!)

I really want a league type of system.
Say I'm on Tier 5, or whatever. I mainly play other Tier 5 people, for fun and practise. I challenge various Tier 4 people when I think that I can win. Each win ups you averages and score, etc. and when you have what it takes (I suppose this would be like Exp. in an RPG) you move up to be the newest player in Tier 4.

If you feel like beating up someone mercilessly you'll have a bout with a Tier 6, and you'll probably get challenges from the good Tier 6 players who want to move up as well. Regular semi-organised competitions would establish a pecking order withing Tiers.

The main problems? Probably the fact that such an arrangement would require dedicated servers and tracking/scoring software which someone has to pay for.

Heh, the people who say that are the same people who haven't tried sorting through all of the EVN data files over and over (just one more reason I have so much respect for ATMOS). I'll just wait for EVN 1.0.2 to come out before I really start cranking on the actual numbers, because otherwise it would just be wasted time.

Returning to the topic at hand...

moki specifically wanted to avoid chatting in the tracker. Frankly, I'd rather have the tracker as quiet as it is now, thanks.

Spectator sportising of pop-pop, though, would kick arse. Everyone send a cheque for a dollar to popWrangler, entice him to make it worth his while... 🙂
