I do sort of, kind of, in a way agree with dunc here.
Nightbox has been asking me for a fair bit of help with this (to the point where I’ve actually stopped answering questions as I know he’ll get a better explanation when he gets fed up waiting for a reply after 5 minutes and googles it), but I just feel its a bit like this at the moment.
The problem is that hes working on something thats just so totally beyond what he is really capable of at this stage; he’s trying to run before hes even discovered he has feet. I tried to tell him this, but he just doesn’t want to hear it. I mean sure, given time he’ll be able to throw together something that works, but it’ll be a total mess (code-wise) and have some fairly major security holes. Good luck I suppose, but honestly I think, give him a couple of years, he could potentially be a fairly decent programmer (assuming he learns to google things). Just right now, this is totally beyond him.

As much as I’d love to join in with the masses hating on Nightbox, it actually looks really nice, hopefully with a bit of hard graft you can get it functional.
PS, if you need any alpha or beta testers, then i have plenty of free time :D
this.

you’ll know all about that(;
If I can help out in any way I’d be glad too.

Nah this is different. IRC bots are inherently always going to be messy and If you’ve seen other things I’ve written, my style is actually pretty tidy usually.
My point is that nightbox is starting a project without having any clue how hes actually going to do some of the more major aspects of it. Honestly, he’d be better doing a few simpler projects just to learn how to program.

I fully support nightbox in this. It would be good to see a better lobby system. I do think however that to really improve on the current tf2lobby you needs some admins. Thats missing the most now in the lobbysystem. Instead of adding a lot of code and features.

As you know I had a reservation for coding. I had to change my mind because i had no coder.

ROFL
LR • Nightbox: even a blog post would be useful when its done :D
Robin: we’d certainly do that
Valve support :)
pretty sure nightbox is now troll baiting.

Nope.
Hope he succeeds in making this work. Tf2lobby is just shite, and all the pugs are pretty much dead.

Problem is that there aren’t enough people who play comp tf2 for them to, not only be divided into different “lobbies”, but also into different divs.
I also recall nightbox wanting to have a seperate romanian tf2mm (and probably other country specific tf2mm’s)
You’ll be lucky if you ever get to play a game in it.
