I think he mixed up KoC and Toc ( times of conquest )

[god]

I don't think it was ever open source.

KoC is the first game of "this" style that originally evolved from just the recruit link. Every game of this style since is a clone, although many have evolved much further than KoC.

I would venture to guess that massing was around long before SGW.

edit: and KoC is not owned by forum.

It was probably someone from First Realm, Taure.

[EliteAceMan]

I invented massing, DUH

[~Phoenix~]

Libra gave us 1turn massing

This question is really for the veterans of SGW, the ones who go so far back they can remember the time when a UP of 100 would be the best in the game...

My question is this:

Who invented massing?

That is, who was it that, rather than just using attacking to steal people's stuff, came up with the idea that you could take someone out by repeatedly attacking them?

Well, Your God (ME) created massing

[Zeratul]

it is obvious that we did it!!!

only a few weeks after we joined, we were massed, so obviously we invented it...

[Nox]

yeah, it was ste the first one, at the time, sabbing was a lot more efective, but elusive had a really good credit card and the mass's were with 1 turn only at that time

13. You may not advertise ANY game that is not a Kingdom Game Productions game.


These say they are (owned by) Kingdom Games:

Universe Quest: http://www.universequest.com/
UniverseWars: http://universewars.com/
Dragon War: http://www.dragonwar.net/
WormholeWars: http://www.wormholewars.com
Times of Conquest: http://world.timesofconquest.com/

And a few other games.




On-topic: Here, the3rdlibra defines 'mass strikes', Wednesday March 16, 2005:

When i co-ordinate "mass" strikes i always order "rush tactics" basically small 1 turn attacks, again and again to weaken a player's defence. Of course it does not always work you have to take into consideration alot of (sort of) "real life" factors, like how far away is your enemy to you, what type of defences does he have? Does he have a lot of untrained military? (this tends to have an effect on death toll, but it's pure conjecture, i have no proof). Basically, i believe that you have experienced a good tactic for crippling your enemy, one i take great advantage of myself. It's no use if you are simply after Naquada, but if you wish to take someone's defense down from 1 million to 500k with 15 turns, this is the way to do it

[Taure]

That wormhole wars link...that looks exactly like SGW...

Main the Second?

[Juliette]

More like SGW "the Non-functional" Main. Tried it beyond looking at the page?

There's certain clues to suggest that several other games, other than these listed, have a link to SGW. However, these games do not claim affiliation with Kingdom Games Ltd. and are as such not 'advertisable' on these forums. I don't think it's prudent to even mention them more precise than this.



On-topic: Maybe "Main the Second" doesn't have massing? (lame abridgeing)

Anyone planned a mass strike in the Purgatory Realm yet? It is, as the3rdlibra says, 'very' much more challenging. I just *love* how basically he describes massing.

KoC was a game that the admin used the scripts for originally. the game was open source.

lol..... no.

I don't think it was ever open source.

KoC is the first game of "this" style that originally evolved from just the recruit link. Every game of this style since is a clone, although many have evolved much further than KoC.

Thank you..... although if I'm right with who you are i never thought i would say that :s

I believe the KoC "clone" came about when someone basicly copy+pasted the Html from the front end of a old version of KoC, and then put (bad) php code to it.

And when i say bad... i mean in need of a rewrite bad.
