Quake / tastyspleen.net turns 20!

« on: October 17, 2024, 02:07:55 PM »

 

The tastyspleen.net domain turns 20 years old today! Happy Birthday tastyspleen!

quadz created such an awesome place for everyone to be able to play, contribute and make friendships.
There's a lot of history with tastyspleen for many of us. We've known this name for as long as it has been around, and it's just home to quake for us.

A few of us will be on mutant and discord this evening for some casual fragging starting around 4pm Pacific.

So much thanks goes to MrsQuadz for keeping the server up for us all. Long live tastyspleen!

Quake / quadz's Birthday Hootenanny 2024

« on: July 20, 2024, 04:11:53 PM »

Greetings!

Come join us on Aug 18th for Bill's Brobdingnagian Birthday Shivoo on the mutant server.
 
Bill "quadz" Kelly was born on August 18th, 1971 and passed away on July 4th, 2021. He would be turning 53 years old this year.
Bill was an outstanding person who was greatly loved by the community, his friends, his coworkers, and his family. He is sorely missed by all.
Let's celebrate his birthday by remembering the good times we had with him, and of course, get some fragging in!

Action and stream should pick up around 3:30PM Pacific.

I have the files on the tastyspleen server to copy over but there are some name conflicts I'm looking into with existing dust2 maps. It's in the works for ts

I've been trying to catch him on to give him a last warning but I keep missing him. Actually makes me want to add some code to tastybot so I can get Discord alerts when certain people connect 

No, invite! is not meant to be used that way.

An Instagib 500 was in the works recently. Quake II King of the Hill was always fun. We can find something to organize next

Been keeping an eye on it for a few months, but I think it's safe to say EnterTheGame IRC is officially gone Their servers went offline on that last day of May.

tastyspleen.net / Re: remove dm5

« on: July 05, 2023, 11:00:55 AM »

I have to chuckle at the Subject you decided to go with "remove dm5"

In another thread you said "Dm is dm1 to dm8." and "we want dm1 to dm8!"

My point is if you are going to skip over a map simply due to low numbers then be consistent. Dm5 is absolutely feral and BTW why is tltf STILL in my map? IT NEEDS TO GO ASAP

Just to clarify as I've seen some confusion lately, the dm4 minclient skip is not a new change to the server and it has been set that way for over 7 years. There just wasn't a console message about it.

Some people probably don't remember it skipping dm4 when quadz was with us because they were never aware it was happening. Previously only admins received the Skipping message, but now I've tweaked it so the server can see. Sometimes a mymap gets skipped for not enough clients, and now it tells people why. I was getting reports that it was confusing sometimes. There was also an inconsistency with the minclient count that I cleaned up where quadz was implementing a sigmoid but it wasn't complete. That just added to the confusion for the players before I cleaned it up. Anyway, dm4 just happens to have a minclient setting too.

quadz first pushed the minclient feature to dm on 2015-10-03 and it included the 6 minclients for dm4. Logs are also showing it hasn't changed.

Code: [Select]

2015-10-03 Sat 19:22:39 quadz: wf exec map_settings.cfg
...
2015-10-03 Sat 19:22:40 wallfly: "maps/q2dm4/minclients" => 6
He mentioned the minclients feature a few months later on the forums: http://forum.tastyspleen.net/quake/index.php?topic=22190.msg219966#msg219966

Two years now and I can still hear his voice. I can still hear him laugh. Hear him cry. Not a day goes by that I don't think about him.

Bill gave us so many good times. I miss his witty comebacks. His kindness. Everything.

Rest in peace my friend. I miss you so much.
