So many people like playing gores but its hard example. I am from South Africa and when I want to play Gores I must go to German servers:( . So why not make a category Gores like Dummy, Novice, Oldschool, Brutal, Moderate , Solo, Gores . with as much gores maps as possible I think it would be quite nice and a lot of people has said it would be nice. So its a suggestion so if you guys/girls could it would be much appreciated.

please i want to earn points for gores... as im good in it... please add dummy, novice, oldschool, brutal, moderate, solo gores please PLEASE I BEG U DDNET

We dont have gores because there is KoG that hosts gores maps... u should ask them to open a South Africa server

Well why not just make for ddnet I know there is KoG but for ddnet it would be nice and like people will challenge alot harder each other for the top times because only german has gores servers so there the only competician

Yes, that's a great idea. I think what Blackie means is - cant you make Gores a category of its own. That would be much more efficient! Please DDnet Team, it would help a lot. <3

We had discussions about this and once we even had the idea to fuse KoG and DDNet into one big server, so that Gores are available worldwide. But time is short and I was scared that I'd have to do even more administration. Previous discussions:

Here's the result:

It's a lot of work to setup, would require to shut down a few DDNet servers, and is pretty complex to run alongside DDNet. I just don't want to deal with running another kind of complex server network. Sorry about all the confusion with this.

If there are some really good Gores maps you want on DDNet (we already have 8), use the regular map releasing process to get them released. I don't expect this to happen, but if many Gores maps are released and played, we may move them to a separate category.

So if you want more gore maps on DDNet, you have to talk to the testers and admins to get them released. When we have 10-20 Gores maps, we can move them to a new Gores server, just as it happened with Dummy maps. But maybe people have a different opinion now and just want to release a big list of Gores maps, I don't know. Personally I don't like Gores and don't want to be in the way of KoG, but since DDNet has more locations, it might make sense anyway.

I understand were u are coming from so if I could maby get the number of an admin and a admin of KoG and try something, but I want gores for ddnet so bad and remember this too me and my friends are good not like the pros but good and they don't want to play KoG gores because you get no points + just think of the challenge now when the gores are released everybody is pushing for the top points top week points.

Well, I have nothing against it (or for it), here's a list of the team: memberlist.php?mode=team

Blackie, you are posting many wrong facts in your argumentation.

KoG has servers in Chile and USA. Also KoG's admins are searching for a sponsor to open a server in Brazil.
You can find more about this on KoG's forums.

Saying there are only Gores servers in Germany is just not true, also you could firstly ask KoG to extend their servers to South Africa.

KoG has a point-system.

This is happening on KoG, too.

Yes remember im talking about ddnet points
