Warrior General Games

Good game, Debt Collectors!


I saw you never punt, so I was hoping we could slow you down and get some decent field position. That made the difference.

Good luck the rest of the season!

Congrats to Mercedes, Abusement Park (great name btw) and Caracas on reaching the final four. Each team is undefeated so far and it should be an epic finish.

Great fun to have that many teams in a tourney to begin a climb.

I+1 to everything Smitty said. Looking forward to a exciting tournament finish against this competition!

Caracas already level 20, building for the future!

I can't speak for Caracas, but in every VPB build-test I ran after the Dotpocalypse, my boost early-and-often dots were always better at end-build than my wait-to-boost dots, probably because I was able to hit higher softcaps earlier on my top couple of attributes. First time it happened, I figured I'd fucked something up in the VPB. When it kept happening, I decided I should pay attention to that.

We'll see what actually happens in the end, but I used my boosts early precisely because I'm building for the future.

Your point is?

Exactly the same for us. We ran through the VPB a ton and that's why we are where we are in levels right now. Ends up with a really exciting build at the end.

This sounds like a sheep and not like a person who spent some time on the VPB imo. We will see but disappointed in that Ken.

Didn't run the VPB at all my friend but build my players with logic. Ryan & KOB are doing the same so... next season will start a new team and will check personally every build with boosts or without. But even then, boosting 10 times D1 doesn't seem right!

Good game Slackers. Thought that one was headed to OT for sure.

GG Cornholio.

Yeah that’s what I thought as well until son played around with builder and convinced me

Did (or does) the VPB take into account the loss of training gains whenever a new level is reached via boost or level up? I haven't used the VPB since before we left BETA. Built my own on a spread sheet because I didn't trust the one's available to consider that aspect of building. Never saw where it had a place for training enhancements... varying training intensity... and all that jazz. Took me 3 seasons to build that damn thing... now it's almost worthless. I say almost because I just need to dig in and update it. For now I'm simply doubling all results since the new 'dot system' is basically doing the same thing (doubling everything).

I ask because that's something that Bort did NOT change. ALG's and Training %'s. He just sped things up. And if we had everything pretty nailed down originally, as far as maxing out builds, then the only thing that's changed is the speed in which it happens. So I'm sticking to "ol' tried and true" for now. Flying a bit by the seat of my pants but I'm a damn good pilot. My lads will get there... then I suspect the fecal matter will impact the rotary wind projector.

Yeah, the VPB has always updated every attribute every time there is a level up, whether from boosting or XP gains, so any training changes are then calculated off that new level. The VPB does bring in any training enhancements that an existing dot already has, and lets you add more training enhancements as you want to, as well. It has all of the different training choices, Light, Normal, Intense, 2x, 3x, and 4x multi.

Hmmm. Well... I might have to give it a ride but if it doesn't fly like mine then I'm outa there. Parachute!
