At the moment things reset at 12:00 for the people in the USA and at 5:00 for people in the UK. At this point the game completely resets.

What i was wondering is, if things could be changed so that tokens being given out cut off at 7:00 for the USA then reset the game at 12:00 so we in the uk can be there for the reset instead of gettin up at 5:00


If it was possible it would be so easier and cooler

IM guessing you dont have a J.O.B ????

Cause I would never be able to make it for reset!!!!

p.s If you are getting up at 5am, no wonder you miss the fucker.............. :rroulette:

I like that idea, just becuz i think its not totally fair for all the players to have to wake up and do that shit in the middle of the Am like that. 12 am is rough here... i wish i lived in Cali... but i dont :)
Steve might like that idea also just becuz his ass has to stay up til 12 am and then work for awhile on this shit.

More opinions?????

Earlier resets, screw that, if anything make them later, like 1 or 2 am. Then those who want to stay up can, those who don't want to don't have to, those across the pond wouldn't have to get up until 6 or 7. If you can't stay up until 1 or 2 give your info to someone you trust (and I mean, realllllyyyy trust)

i think stopping giving out tokens hours before reset is a good idea, it wouldnt really matter when the reset time was then. you could even make it something like 12 hours before reset, therefore if you were to miss reset you could spend the last of your tokens hours before and not lose out.

they want every reset to be generic and completey undramatic

YOU NOOBS FUCK OFF AND THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE FUCKING ASKING?!?!!?!??

why not just change the name of the game to sissy wars, shit while we're at it, lets all hold hands and sing kumbayah (sp)

This is the way I see it:

If you Don't have a really viable idea that would really work, Stop making these dumb ass, waste of time threads..... For Fuck Sakes!!!

I think reset as it is, is the best way and is really managable by everyone in every continent and corner of the world. If you are unable to get your sorry ass out of bed at 5am, that is your fucking problem! If you are unable to stay up till 12pm, that is your fucking problem, and if you live in another country where reset is a time that doesnt personally benefit you, that is your fucking problem!

However reset is changed, somebody somwhere is not going to be happy, so I say just get used to it or go find another game that is customised for your bloody needs!!!!!

I think that is clear enough for all to comprehend!!!!

I suggest this thread be moved to AIW!!! :P

Reset for the USA is not just Midnight, the east coast...yes, but reset is gonna be a little different everywhere you go. Some have the comfort of it being at 9 p.m. others don't. Just something your gonna have to deal with if you plan on playing the game. Time can't be the same everywhere, and it damn sure won't stand still for anyone.

Your suggestion in more of a whine than a suggestion

Brilliant Idea young man, I can't believe all the hostile abuse and flames you got for making such a sensible sugestion.(y)

I can see your point , as it must take you hours to sort out all the incoming cartels on reset night.

Keep the good ideas coming and ignore the hecklers.(Y)

The problem with that, like somebody mentioned, is while it may be midnight for us Eastern coasters ... it's 9pm further west. So then your suggestion would mean those people have to reset at what, 4pm :| Somebody's gonna be out of luck in any scenario, fella. You guys just drew the short straw.

honestly I think that no matter what time zone you live in, you had dedicated your time to play the game, and treadon has made this game so people can pay, and they can also play w/o paying. I just got to say only people who can complain about waking up in the mornings for the reset is the people who pay, not the free loaders like me.

I think that Dope's sugestion iis to still have the reset at 12am but to cut the tokens off at 7pm giving 5 hours to spend them and move people around.

Its tough on reset nights when only 2-3 of us are trying to spend everyones last tokens in the 20 mins before reset for 4 or 5 full Daqq cartels and still leave enough time for pulling our spys from the opposition :hidey:

i have thought about this long and hard and this is what i think

keep reset tha way it is. i am GMT and 5am seems like a pain in tha ass but it is actually tha best time. for tha rest of tha world i would say it isnt:-

1. Pacific (PST) is a 9pm thing. i say that seems like tha most convienient time for reset but it aint. for tha fuckers that have no lives it is. for others that have a life other than DW it isnt. sometimes reset occurs on a fri/sat and for those that go out and have piss-up wont be able to be on. i know i would sound like a dick for sayin i cant go out coz i gotta be on for reset.

2. Eastern (EST) is 12am. yes u fuckin losers w/ no lives, people do stay out past midnight. so if reset occurs on a fri/sat and ur at a club and u pick up a gal from there u dont wanna be taken her home and u realise that it is almost 12am and say "i will be w/ u ina min, i need to play a comp game". i am only 16 but i can tell ya that is a turn off and i would rather fuck tha gal and fuck DW for that night no matter if i was gunna get an overall.

tha point of this is for all tha brits and other europeans w/ similar times to us that we have got tha better deal here. it is much better to be gettin up earlier than to miss a good night out and be on tha pull.

that is just my views on all this and i would love to know what u americans do when summin like this happens. :)

6th December 2006, 07:29 PM
Don't talk shite. I have a very good life and have stayed up for about 3 resets (IIRC).

1. was rat arsed up my mates and talking on Yahoo to burds whilst spending up (and winning overall)
2. went out to the pub, fell asleep in the hedge, fell asleep in the close, "helped" with reset with Andy with 10 minutes to go lol
3. stayed sober because the people supposed to be doing reset never showed up and it wasn't a night for going out on the lash

Therefore, 5am is not better. It's never better regardless of the day. At least midnight and 9pm for us is acceptable the majoriy of the days.

Dope, Psycho is agreeing that your sugestion on halting the credits at 7pm US time has some merit and will be considered.

You would then be able to do all your cartel moves at 12.00 uk time and get an early night

so give him a bit of a break(y)

If reset time was to ever change i would suggest changing it to accomodate the UK and USA as best as we possibly can as people from these two areas make up the large percentage of the players in the game. How this would affect non-UK and non-USA players i dont know, but hey, the majority always rules. (f)

yes you can just take hours off for example uk 5:00 to 12:00 = -5 hours of tokens

then the usa 12:00 reset just take 5 hours of tokens off 7:00 but keep the reset at 12:00

Ok so neither of them can be on for definite at any other time. BUT, they will for most times. And the rest they could give to Tim.

Quoting for Emphasis. The current system is working just fine, and there hasn't been a solid idea yet for a new system that wouldn't run into more problems/mayhem then we have right now.

Just remember, if we were to push this back to 12:00 midnight whatever European timezone we base it off of, that's 6:00/7:00 p.m. for the majority of the people that could reset assuming Tim can reset. If he can't than it's for everyone that could reset. Now look down the road for a couple of months. You're running into a time frame where people could miss reset on time because of work/traffic/night class/dinner obligations/late meetings/etc. It would be far less reliable doing it that way than the current way.

Yeah you're right, the current system is working fine. Even though the Brits and other Europeaners (on average) spend up at midnight and go to bed, we're still better than you lot but not as good as we would be if it were at a reasonable time so it balances.

Oh, and would it be the end of the world if we put it back to 3am GMT (2 hours earlier than what it is now)? 5am really rips the arse out of it.

yer that's right and 3 is still a bit shit but it is better then 5 so if thats the best you can do i suppose that will have to do if you can manage that

Its pointless, 5am is probably better than 3. Atleast you can have a few hours sleep before getting up for 4.30, if it was at 3 there would be no point in even going to sleep

Then it wouldn't be at 12oclock for the people in the US, and you seem to forget, the gaffer isnt from the UK ;) Resetting at different times for everyone is a pretty shit idea in the way that the US players games would be over 5 hours before ours. It wouldnt work.

13th December 2006, 07:41 PM
put reset for uk to 12:00 = -5 hours then keep us at 12:00 just take 5 hours off there tokens and the same with all countries mate

how about, just stop trying to get an easier reset time, either get someone else to do it for you, or get up and do it yourself

you know the saying, if you don't like it, leave

Let me put this one to bed, PLEASE

suggestion #1, change reset to 12:00 england time.

Neither rit or myself can guarentee we will be around, neither of us are moving to europe, no we arent getting another game admin, end of discussion.


suggestion 2, stop the tokens somewhere between 1-5 hours early (various suggestions)

Does anyone REALLY want to spend and THEN be suicided? I dont really. Plus, thats advantage: europe as they will be a target for less time. nope, aint doin it.


3, auto resets

server lags/crashes, slaver/other cheat deletions ect ect..not happening either.



In conclusion,we arent changing the start time to accomodate you, sorry.

Why are you whining Dope? You just can't be bothered getting up for 5 AM, In Oz most of us are at School or Work with NO chance of being on AT ALL for reset. I dealt with it for about 2 years, never cried about it..so stop crying about not wanting to get up a couple of hours early...

with all this talk of everyone losing out no matter what, a possible rotational reset? But that wouldn't work because Pstyle has to reset it manually!

I personally think its fine to just give an american your login details, so what if he/she fucks you over, or forgets to wake up eh Si ;) its only a game man.

Each game should have a different reset time. A1 at 1am, A2 at 2 a.m. etc. and they should autoreset. Thats the way it should be. In a perfect world where servers don't crash, that is probably how it would be. But I don't mind the current system.

Psychostyle
23rd December 2006, 11:29 AM
also think of how unfair that would be since all games go against each other..a2 gets 4 more tokens than a1, a3 gets 8 more, ect ect....and shutting down tokens for the rest of the games as the 1st one resets seems rather pointless...

i think just leave it as it is, no matter what time admin put reset to, there are always going to be people complaining about not being able to get on just before reset, last reset i was at work and missed out on 7hours of tokens, but thats life. i think things work fine the way they are and they should just be left as is.
ps, i know there is a thread here somewhere with a map of the world and the reset times etc, can someone please tell me what thread it is or put a link to it here?
thanks, jason.
