Only solution I know for that is by putting the link to giantswd.com on lots of websites... and there is a thing on google.com where you can...ummm tell them to add a site with it, that might help
If you search for giantswd in google, it's listed all over the first page...
and if you search for Loop Goose Giants then its number 1, and I have a link to this site on my site. So there should be no excuse for ppl not to somehow make their way to this site
I can make the changes necessary. If you want to give an announcement or such on the main page, there is a submit news feature that you can use by just being logged in. Just visit the main page and you'll see the link above the news box.[PM]Olden McGroin wrote:First I need to correct Infinity7, I helped a lot in the net game, but was by far not the main guy. I was the one however who became most visible to try to support the Giants community and I do know a thing or two about the net game
By the way, do you guys play or just talk about the game? If you play, where/when do you play? I'm assuming GSA...
Who here can post things/make changes to this site? I have a few ideas of what we can do to distribute anything that comes out of my new found energy for Giants.
And for the record, I'm always busy. Unless somebody wants to volunteer to finish power washing/sealing my deck.
Is it even possible to change the generic message of "World not found?" This is the biggest problem for most of the newcomers, and if we can give them a link, that would expand the community by quite a bit.
Using UltraEdit, or any other text-changing programs, players are able to change their death messages. (ie: instead of "An00blette ate GibLit's proximity missiles", it could be "An00blette got shot down by GibLit's ultraleet proxie!!!")
Using this method, we could change the "World Not Installed" text in GTextEnglish, and the other different language text files, to "go to www.giantswd.com for all your Giants needs" or something like that. =)

That will change the message on your machine but not on the machine of whoever is connecting with 1.4...we could change the "World Not Installed" text in GTextEnglish...
AFAIK when you connect without the correct map you'll still see the game name (with **world not installed** after it). My idea: Let the server send a modified game name to 1.4 clients.
SSJBardock has a text converter he made. Basically, you use his program "GText Edit" (downloadable from this website), and edit your texts, then email the txt file to him. Then he check it through to make sure you are not abusing it, and converts the file. He then sends it back to you and you slap it in your Bin folder. This then allowsyou to have texts like mine, for example"[EVO]Mutilator shouted "Oh F***" as KillerDude's homing missile headed towards hm at an incredible speed", or something along those lines anyway.

That is correct.
