darrenstraight 2,330 Report post Posted November 7, 2012 Back in July of this year, YAMS had it's grand opening for the YAMS Coliseum v2 where [url="http://www.darrenstraight.com/minecraft/index.php?/topic/2472-yams-coliseum-v2-grand-opening-july-2012-official/"]I invited everyone[/url] to come and play Mob Arena with me, killing mobs for prizes! Now 4 months latter and we havent used the coliseum in a while, so I thought hey lets use it for something again after all I built it to host multiple events, just lack time to organise these things when I'm having to deal with bad players! Anyway this time we are going to be playing Battle Arena, which is basically pvp fighting! Some of you will die... Some of you will survive... But you will all have fun! or at least I hope so. If you would like to play, head on down to the main coliseum entrance archway just north of sandbox (on the way to snowheim) where you will find a sign board with further instructions. Really hope you all enjoy the games, I've made it simple to play to start with and will add more options depending on how well it turns out. Well good luck and thanks goes to steerpikesister for helping me yesterday finish the arena off + testing. [b]EDIT:[/b] There are currently 2 bugs, one where your team wool hat may still appear on you after playing (I ask that you remove it please) and two that you cant join another game until you disconnect and reconnect.

changingtuna88 168 Report post Posted November 10, 2012 What he meant is it said in chat i killed him ( it was a duel) and the match didn't end. He was also sent to spawn, not back to his previous location at the coliseum. I ended up leaving the match but it said i lost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darrenstraight 2,330 Report post Posted February 17, 2013 Just a follow up on this, are you still enjoying the arena? :) I've added class options now, when you spawn into the wait room you can punch a sign to pick a class. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devon_HD 97 Report post Posted February 17, 2013 I remember having a lot of fun playing with lord nams and tuna, along with me screaming over Skype and Darren joining it a bit :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
changingtuna88 168 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Ahh yes....the craziest day ever :P I also think classes will be cool to add, like u dont know what people have choosen :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darrenstraight 2,330 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Ahh yes....the craziest day ever :P I also think classes will be cool to add, like u dont know what people have choosen :P I've already added classes that's what I said! ;) and you can see what people pick as you are all in same waiting room, though I am wondering about separating waiting rooms for teams, thing is it can work both ways... It can be good to see what others have so everyone can be fair while on the other hand it could be more interesting not seeing what other team picks but if you say to other team we only pick archers you won't be able to check they have not cheated! Anyway have a go, archer is fun and so is monk! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devon_HD 97 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Oh yeah me and lord had ago yesterday on the classes and fair to say I lost pretty much everyone, but it was fun :D although when lord had changed through everyone to see what you could have he got a sword on monk when your not surrposed to :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darrenstraight 2,330 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Have removed the arena plugin until I'm happy it wont crash the server, it seems to have some problems with it at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darrenstraight 2,330 Report post Posted March 6, 2013 As you may have noticed, the arena was enabled again, however I have currently disabled it again. Here's a few things that cuase the server to crash while using it: You join an arena and so does someone else, when you're in the waiting room you decide to /arena leave only leaving one person in it. People trying to join a queue while a game is already in progress. People typing /arena leave becuase they could not join as says they already in a game. When I get time, I will investigate it further out of YAMS and see if I can fix this, as it may just be something simple fix like dont have a waiting room or change some of our arena settings, or have a max ammount of players on a team instead of unlimited. Ill let you know if and when I find a fix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
