Buddy, if somehow 02 opponent cannot play each other due to either scheduling conflict or connection related issues, what is your next plan of action for them? I am talking about my game with Mansoor Khan (Team Pakistan), we tried several times (More than 10/12 attempt), but we simple could not connect with each other. As of now I am 2nd in DBC Online Leader-board, so its not that I had any issue with my connection or PC, its just that somehow we both (Me & Mansoor Khan), could not connect to each other to finish our game.

Hi mate,

As I have said in the Steam group pages, I gave you both until midnight UK time to finish the match. You and Mansoor having connection issues is not my concern.

You have also said to me to let Mansoor go forward to the next round. This was after you had posted on here regarding the issue.

If the match was not completed by midnight I would have tossed a coin to decide the winner, the fairest way I can think of. Obviously not the best way but what else could I do?

If you cant connect to Mansoor but you can connect to others then Mansoor needs to find out if he can connect to others but not you.

Please point Mansoor to this thread and this post in particular regarding this.

If others have the same issue in the future then I will give them the exact same chance to complete the game as I have given you two.

Yes all good buddy..Its good the new player should get more chances and exposer.
@BigAntStudios Is there any compatibility issue with connectivity with certain players in Online gaming in PC? I had a game with @RIZZYX where we connected fine till the 1st Inning, after 1st Inning we saved & exit, not no matter what we do we cannot connect to each other for either this game or even a new game. We both can play with other Online Players with no issue. I will post this post on PC Problem threads too, if possible do look into this.

A tag on the Big Ant Forums and the Steam one (If I can).

I can't promise anything for Planet Cricket, it's not my place to do that.

My apologies, edited original post.

Hi guys,

Thought I would post this in here rather than make a new thread as I feel there is no need for a new one.

The DBC14 Fans group is now set to private. The group can only be joined by invite only. Only myself and Jimb0b (the other admin) can invite people to join from now on.

The reason behind this is explained in the group discussion boards, but suffice to say you need to own the game to get in...

 

[dale0404]

165 members now after a cull that just took me over an hour. If I have kicked anyone from the group by mistake and you want to join let me know over Steam.

There are still some members in the group that I am not entirely sure of so I have sent out a friend request to them. If after a couple of days I get no response you'll be kicked.

I will not have piracy in the group, simples.

 

[Chewie]

So you've just sent a friend request to me...
