What was so hard about 0 pills is X times 1?

If I put 0 pills into a guy with 6 power, he still has 6 attack. X times 1. You learn this day 1 by using none on your first guy to figure the game out, or shortly after using all 12. You continue to reinforce this concept when you begin to use DR characters and character that have Attack Manipulation equal to or lower than their Power such as Brittany. Every time you play the game, you see X ATTACK. When you put none in, you see (Power) ATTACK. All putting in the +1 pills per round does is make my GUI lie to me, because now I think I have 13 pills that will create Power*14 Attack when I actually don't because that 13th pill is a phantom.

And it doesn't actually change offensive math any. If I look at a guy and think "incoming 6 pills", that doesn't change the math behind the formula. He's still coming with (6+1)*Power attack. Except- now it looks like he has more to work with, which wrongly influences the reaction of the player.

Once you learn you can't actually 0 a character and learn "oh the minimum is times 1" the rest gets easy. All you have to think now is "If he puts 5 pills in, that's X times 6." It's always times +1, because you start at times 1 not times 0.

That's not a hard concept to pick up.]]>Thu, 07 Jul 2011 11:02:35 GMT anyone can help me

The deathmatch is over, and people who are still in matches get to finish their's up. You, on the other hand, have completed your matches. You have to wait for them to complete theres.]]>Fri, 07 Jan 2011 11:46:26 GMT]]>Fri, 07 Jan 2011 11:14:34 GMT This is the error i get no matter what i do:

I can play the game normally with the old version

Regarding 2:
I get the "cannot contact server please check you connection" message from time to time even though my connection is fine. If i press the OK button on the message the game resumes normally.
I guess that you have a listener function in Flash that checks if the communication between a computer and the server is working. If it doesn't work you get the error message and when you click OK it attempts to reestablish the connection. I got this message a lot of times today and after i clicked OK the game resumed normally. What i was trying to say is that it would be better if the game tried to auto-reconnect a few times before giving the error message.

I am using MAC OSX 10.6.5, Firefox 3.6]]>Fri, 07 Jan 2011 09:18:22 GMTFri, 07 Jan 2011 09:16:57 GMT And in DM when the 20 minutes and the extra time finished,it shows the final results but the results arent disapearing]]>Fri, 07 Jan 2011 08:49:36 GMTFri, 07 Jan 2011 08:11:10 GMT
However there are a few downsides:
1. the new engine is unstable - i had to switch to the previous version because i kept getting a "fatal error must reload" message
2. connection checker is too sensitive. any small lag triggers it
3. hiding the forfeit button has caused more timeouts. forfeit is a concept that has existed in sports for ages and it means you admit defeat. i see it as a fast and clean way to move on to the next game. i know others are bothered by it but i think even them prefer a forfeit to a timeout.
4. the free pill system - this is a subjective matter but it does not simplify anything. Since 1 pill is added each turn it can get really confusing to calculate the remaining pillz when using +/- pillz abilities. I hate it on the iPhone and i hate it now

I am sure that after some more tweaks the new AS3 interface will be preferred by most players. Until then i am forced to use the old one (because of reason 1)]]>Fri, 07 Jan 2011 03:57:10 GMTDon...]]>Fri, 07 Jan 2011 01:50:16 GMTThu, 06 Jan 2011 22:34:54 GMT
this is truly eyecandy now , which i can , by my own choice of sweetness put together and take it all in

THanks UR for all the hard work and getting us the state of the art gameplay ]]>Thu, 06 Jan 2011 21:39:12 GMTThu, 06 Jan 2011 20:30:39 GMT so , another thing that still isn't quite right - in deathmatch rooms , the box that appears with the final results still isn't big enough / does not display all the players / cannot be scrolled up or down . kind of a non-issue , but aesthetics are important too !]]>Thu, 06 Jan 2011 17:13:59 GMT Details coming soon but should be much faster, especially during players list loading.]]>
