Same old goddamn story for passworded games

You know, it's times like this that makes me not even want to play Myth anymore. It's bullshit when you wait well in advance for a game, like tonight; waiting in lobby hour/30 mins for everyone to arrive and get something set up.

Then it comes game time, and of course, there's that lovely addition of a password. Been waiting a long time to get in? Sorry, but if you aren't "selected", all you get is the joy of watching everyone else around you going in 1 by 1, waiting for someone to hopefully tell you the password which you've been here the entire time for. Of course, like tonight, that doesn't happen.

If it seems like I'm mad, you're damn right! I'm sick of it. We first only have 11 players with 1 extra spot, but somehow end up with 14 people, and me getting left out. I sit patiently and wait for the game, and then someone just swaggers in and gets premium treatment. I'm not talking about Chris since he made the thing and is important.

Say whatever you want about me. Say I'm a whiner or a crybaby. The fact remains, it's pretty low to leave someone out like that. Goodbye and good riddance.

If it makes you feel any better, I host un-passworded 16-player Mazz games whenever possible.
Look for me whenever you're online.

Uh, Godz, I'm nearly positive I PMed you the password while there was still room. Dunno if you were afk or what, but there were about 20 people clamoring to get into a 14 player game. It gets hard to keep track of who is actually planning to play or not, so eventually enough other people got the password and the game filled up. Trust me, I've always hated passworded games, and the only reason we use them currently is to get friends (like you) in, not to keep anyone out. If co-ops could handle more players, we wouldn't password them.

Sorry you missed the game; it was a good one. But if it's any consolation, we lost again. :P

P.S. Get a headset and join us on Vent. Then there's no chance of accidently getting left out.

1) It's "General Discussion" for a reason
2) There's a beef and people should take all perspectives into account when hosting a coop, which in part should ally players instead of the FFA madness.
3)Have fun playing myth.

I do apologize for my rather emotional nature last night, but there's one thing I need you guys to understand. After this past week of almost turning into a zombie having stayed up and played during the week and only getting 5-6 hours of sleep if I'm lucky before waking up for college, I just can't do that anymore. I actually had to leave a class because I was so disoriented.

Because of that, I realized I can only play now (at least the late games, which is the only time there's a good group), is Friday and Saturday night; that's it. That's why I was so mad yesterday because I had nothing on tap, could sleep well in, and get to play with a good team.

I don't want to burn bridges with anyone, I just hope you guys can understand where I am coming from, and why this upset me so much.

PS- What is the connection information for Ventrillo I need. I can set that up today.

PSS- I will be on tonight (Sat), so hopefully we can get something going.

if it's possible to get the vent info PM'd my way I would love to join in for some maz games if they are still going in a week or two when I'm back up and running. If it has a high quality codec running on it I might not be able to though, my connection at the uni dosn't seem to like it much
