Your kind words have inspired me to take a look tonight. I'll have to load up Demigod, get my head around all the LUA again, remember what on earth I was thinking when I coded it the first time, etc. I will also have to check through all the fix updates etc to try and work out what exactly has changed in the last year or so to try and update everything. If it's just a matter of updating and adding new data it shouldn't be too difficult from memory the system was fairly good for all that, the

No, it was very helpful. I think I will at least renew the domain as it seems the site is still useful in its current form. I may look into how much work it would be to add the new demigods and balances etc before deciding on whether or not to update the site, getting it current shouldn't be too much work if the mechanics of the game remain mostly the same. It seems many of my planned features (I can't even remember what they all were) are probably not worth the time investment involved. Time

Thank you for your kind words, I am not totally proud of the hap-hazard coding behind it, but I am rather happy with the way it functionally came out, I'm happy that you found it useful :) [quote who="GM-NinkiCZ" reply="1" id="2599851"]YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Your website was very helpful when I was just starting out. I personally don't really need it anymore but others might so I'm not gonna delve into that discussion.

Revive DemigodDB? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Hi Everyone, No one probably remembers me or http://www.demigoddb.com anymore, unfortunately shortly after I got it up and running I got a job working fulltime (and then some) as a web developer and quickly lost the free time I had to update the site. Anyway, my question is, as I have fallen out of touch with the Demigod community essentially for the last year, I wanted to know if there was still a need for such a calculator if it was updated and improved (or has someone else

Reply to Demigod's Current Biggest Problem: Heart of Life in Demigod Demigod Forums

HoL makes potions completely pointless imo. I don't buy them ever except maybe at the very start, but even then it's often more cost effective to run back to the crystal than spend money on potions. HoL is annoying because it means unless you kill someone outright, they never have to leave the lane, it completely takes the harassing strategy from the game. There is no more "hmm I should hang back a bit, I'm only half health" or anything, it's just "WEEE FULL HEALTH". It just makes the game ut

opengames.aspx only displays the first NAT server of like 8+ or something, Frogboy mentioned it in IRC a while back. Basically NAT sits there seeing what everyone is doing and getting people to shake hands. Even with NAT Traversal, NAT still does things like show you the lobby so that you can see all the games that are up so that you can then connect to that person etc.

It's not a browser issue, it's a database issue. I'm not sure if it's the new host having problems with the database, or if some people are still seeing the old host for some reason and that is causing issues. It works fine for me consistently. If you just get "Mysql could not connect" or something similar, it's likely you're looking at the old server. If you get a message saying there is technical difficulties, there is a problem with the new server. If you just get the site, you are having

I don't play with minions at all with most of the generals. Preists with Sedna are really the only reasonably non-optional minion choice.

I don't see the point. Just don't level your skills in the middle of the battle is a simple solution. Be more careful. Mommy can't hold your hand forever.

Reply to HoL too strong? in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

TP Scrolls are cheap, there isn't much need for HoL. If there is, perhaps make it more expensive, or make its cooldown significantly longer so that you cant spam it. I mean 30 seconds, you just run in, lose health run back, heal, run in lose health, run back, you dont even care how much health you have anymore, it's just rather silly imo. A cooldown of say 60+ seconds would at least mean it had to be used carefully. Meanwhile making it more expensive would mean people would perhaps ge

Reply to Regulus' mines, are they overpowered? in Demigod Multiplayer Demigod Forums

I think the easiest fix for regulus' mines is to make him actually have to be where he wants to lay them, not be allowed to "throw" them. Who throws explosives around? Make him place them on the ground near his feet, it means he cant just stand back and throw mines into the enemy, that way he needs to think about where he is placing them more. If the throwing strategy is prefered, because placing mines does mean regulus has to get into range alot, perhaps make the timer before they ex

Let's see. Why are cars more important than video games. 1. Cars are $20,000+, Video Games is $40 2. Cars are required to get to jobs and such, reliability is important. Video Games, are leisure. 3. Cars are dangerous, faulty cars kill people. Video Games kill time. PS: The fact that you took legal subjects in High School, or come from a family of lawyers doesn't mean you know shit.

Works fine here. It wouldn't be a browser issue, I'm fairly certain its probably a cache/DNS issue which would likely resolve itself. Some ISP's cache DNS requests and such locally to speed up page load times, this usually shouldnt take more than 24 hours, but who knows what some ISP's do to save money. I will talk to my host and such to see, hopefully everything will be sorted soon.

If it wasn't over quickly, why would you rage quit? Of course you learn things from close games.

Reply to Bugs and Balancing for v1.2+ (updated) in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

I disagree with making Parasite Egg more affordable. Minions are already grossly underused because they offer very little flexibility in any build for them, requiring both signinifcant ability points and gold to get them to a decent level. Overall Minions are fairly useless, or at least that is general consensus. Making Parasite egg even cheaper makes it an easy choice as soon as you notice someone going a minion build, effectively rendering the build completely useless instantly, and now wit

[quote who="Fuzzy Logic" reply="3" id="2234364"] Not true. Last night I played a 2v2 as UB against another UB who was very good. We lost, but I was able to see the other UB was considerably faster than me (so I've obviously overlooked an ability somewhere) and used completely different tactics. I was able to use those tactics later to much better effect.[/quote] Wow, so you had to stick around for 30 minutes to realise that the other UB was faster than you? You couldn't work that

It's possible some people are still seeing the old server, which doesn't work anymore, their ISP my cache the page, or perhaps the DNS Servers haven't updated yet. Either way, the site is up and working, I can assure you.

"2) If you quit because you are losing, you will never see why the other players are better..." You can't see what gear they have bought, or what skills they chose, or when or why they did anything. There is no learning to be had by having your face mashed in over and over. Some games are truely over well before the citadel falls, especially since this game offers very little in terms of come from behind victories, except on Exile really.
