Then you don't go on that leader's missions anymore, simple as that. Also, if you turn in a crate you get 20 rep and 50 exp, so it's not a total waste of time. - Original Message - From: Steady Goh stea...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Date sent: Sun, 22 Jul

Then people will start paying attention to who leads the mission. If someone keeps getting kicked out of a mission led by Jeepers-Creepers, then that person won't go with Jeepers-Creepers anymore. I think that a solution depending on team leader choice would be very appropriate. Frankly, We keep

Yep I know John, but what I'm nitpicking at is that the current suggestion is for that timed component to be based on a player sitting and doing nothing. That's easily avoided by a trucksitter wandering around in a circle every minute or so. It'll change what they're known as from trucksitters to

Huge thumbs up here to Dakotah's suggestion of the leader being able to give people the shove before launching (at least, as huge a thumbs up as it's possible to give when you only have normal sized thumbs). Probably harder to code, but worth the extra wait IMHO as there's less room for abuse. It

[Audyssey] Frustrating bug in Swamp

2012-07-22 Thread Lori Duncan
Hi everyone, I have played a few missions now in Swamp, but sometimes I find when I join the mission leaves without me. I don't even get a message saying I can't join because the mission has already started, or one saying it's been canceled. I wait for it to launch but nothing happens, then I

Hi guys, when I was playing Swamp last night I thought it'd be a great idea to start up a blog of my character in Swamp. It's kind of like the fan fiction idea, but it might also be an idea for people to do their own swamp stories and share them, also contribute to each others stories. I know

Hi Thomas, a while back I asked for help on the usb headset, and you said to check for the remove hardware wizard. I went to my system tray and looked there, but there doesn't seem to be anything showing up. Also for some reason Jaws reads out a lot uf unlabeled buttons, so it could be one of

Hi Tom. first of all, of behalf of my brother Matt and myself, we'd like to thank you for the additional voices. Have a few questions that maybe all of us could use the answer for. 1. we were going to try the custome install first. But it wouldn't show us which voices were checked and or

On windows7, if you invoke the run dialogue, by hitting windows key + R, and then paste the following in there, and hit enter, it will bring up the default voice settings dialogue for windows TTS, which while it doesn't affect narrator as such, I think affects other software's use of voices

Hi Ron, By default all the voices are selected. If you don't want certain voices you have to do a custom install to unselect the voices you don't want installed. As for customizing the voices such as pitch, volume, etc you should be able to change the rate and volume, but you can not adjust the

Hi Lori, So far as I know there isn't another way to reach the safely remove hardware dialog. On my Windows XP desktop when I go to the System Tray the button is right next to the clock if that helps. I don't use Jaws so can't comment about it not identifying various buttons, but NVDA does

Hi Thomas, I did go to the button next to the clock, but when I press enternothing happens, I might see if someone sighted could tell me if the hardware wizard is showing. It's frustrating as Jaws hardly ever lets me down, it'd be interesting to know if anyone else has had this problem.
