trige... who at SD said that? We have a patch that was expected to be deployed this week, but I doubt it will appear at this point.

Mils... that is lousy. From the perspective of everyone else in the game, you disconnected and our game persisted. Throughout the game I saw your ping spike up to 1900 at various points and we all experienced some lag. The last time it occurred, you were dropped from the game. Shortly after you dropped, Windvar dropped, presumably conceding, and legion70 played the game out. Actually, from looking at the stats and Windvar having 0 favor, I'd think that he was som
[quote who="Milskidasith" reply="4" id="2287449"]Bug: In a game, suddenly it says all my enemies DC'd and that I won. I check stats; a loss with no favor. Bug: In a game, I win. It counts as a loss. General point: Stats are worthless; right now I've got an under 50% win ratio, but I've also had about a 70% "my team has a horrible feeder" ratio. I still play well... just not well enough to counter my teammates stupidity. [/quote] I can easily agree that stats

[quote who="DoKTa_T" reply="2" id="2286942"] Quoting InfiniteVengeance, reply 1 There's so many disclaimers I'm not sure what the point of this post is. In summary, stats are still broken. That was my impression, too. Way too many words to arrive at: "Let's come together as a community to track the bugs/exploits and help out." [/quote] Can't say I disagree. Will update the post with either a 1 liner as mentioned or condense it. </

This post is not, in any way, an attempt to draw flames directed at individuals, SD, or GPG. After 1.1, it is crystal clear that stat exploits/bugs still exist. SD staffers have clearly indicated this here: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/357971/page/2/#replies (reply 30) and other places. This post is not an argument about premade teams having an advantage and so statistics don't matter or any argument you can think of and stats d
Bara, Can something be done for stat tracking regarding the host disconnect exploit (I documented this in detail here http://forums.demigodthegame.com/357971 ). Is it possible in the web coding to exclude games from the stats where there is only 1 winner (excluding 1v1 games of course)? That wouldn't do much to help everyone playing with someone using the exploit (as they'd all still get losses), but at least t
I now have read the apology. Accepted. Thanks! And thanks Jafo... checking that out now.
ElementalAoE - as indicated above, laptops often as lousy for their graphics support, even on good builds. I was lucky enough to get demigod to work on an integrated intel chipset, but could not get one of my friends Toshibas to work (similar specs to you). Integrated chipsets appear to be locked down by the manufacturer as they like to customize their drivers. That means, if the company you bought from doesn't want to update those drivers, you are screwed unless
For those of us following this, anyone have a post to a killer minion build? I have a very solid Erebus build, but haven't taken the time to write it up yet.
less time between tournaments would be cool, but at least for me, it encourages me to try other MP components of the game (which might be the purpose). I'll gladly play with you in the future Myachi if you like during pantheon downtime... Off topic - can anyone else create a new post on the forums? I'm unable to do so after yesterday's maintenance. PM me or make a quick post here if you any of you can. Thanks!
Holy crap... GPG just posted here on their game. Woot! I know it sounds like I'm bitchin, but thanks for the post!

Sir-Astal... apologies if you've already posted, but is there a specific SSD you'd recommend?
I actually got asked if I was using some sort of Erebus exploit due to my heavy minion build from a fairly seasoned player (and the hero kills I was getting w/ minions alone)... if you don't know how to combat minion builds, at least at the early/mid levels, you'll probably be feeling some pain. I personally thinks its very smart balancing. A general shouldn't be the worlds greatest tank as they get minions... I don't see any reason why I shouldn't be able to be a medium strength
Cool, Sylis. Sorry to have caused a bit of pain for you, but thanks for providing feedback and explanations. Hopefully some info here will be useful to SD in tracking down the problem. End of thread I hope. :)
I'm glad people are having success. So long as it works is an ok motto from time to time! I decided to play a game and do a test using Netmeter. No other network activity and a 4v4 game where I wasn't the host. My max upload during the game peaked at 50.2Kib/s . I'm a little more attentitive to this stat because 1 of my buddies for some reason can't play 4v4 or 5v5 anymore due to low upload speed after 1.1 (eg, he starts a 3v3 or > game and then gets disconnec
Here's just a final summary regarding this with the extra info you added Sylis... You host games and get briefly disconnected from the internet when you have a loss of power or a short to your modem. This causes all players to disconnect from you, the host. They see you as having left the game and are still connected to each other, but are now unable to report their stats as they are apparently routed through the host (you). You see an auto-win screen as you are
nice tip dash... didn't know that one!
Frogboy made a post a while back about speed tests - http://forums.demigodthegame.com/352954 . I point this out as you have a low upload speed. When you have 2 connections going out, you'd logically be utilizing double the bandwidth. So, I'd wager that is causing your problem. I'm not sure if the utilzation has been improved since that post, but my guess would be that you could probably pull off a 2v2 on a small map
I'm not aware of any other thread... Thanks for all the extra details. So, here's the full problem then. You host games and get briefly disconnected from the internet when you have a loss of power or a short to your modem. This causes all players to disconnect from you, the host. They see you as having left the game, but are still connected to each other, but are now unable to report their stats as they are apparently routed through the host (you). Some t
Glad to hear about those items getting expedited AND that the update is due out this week. Great news!
Double Post - SORRY!
Sylis - Hey, after hearing your friends chime in on your behalf and seeing the picture you posted, I really don't think you are intentionally trying to cheat. Thanks for taking the time to clarify that. So, apparently loss of power or a short to your modem causes a temporary disconnect for everyone in the game. After the short disconnect and your modem cycles, you still find yourself in the game and you appear to be able to post stats. Ple
