Ubi Servers suck for finding TOH opponents.
I have sat in Ubi rating room 1 every day now and have yet to see anyone that is TOH. Only people I ever see in there are speaking spanish or speaking Squares.
I would like to make a suggestion to ALL toh players. Especially the returning vets. Download and use MSN 7.5 It is free and would be a Great way to see whose online and comunicate times to play and when to meet etc etc. Kinda like a glorified Friends list etc. I propse everyone sign up and post there e-mail in this thread that they used to register with MSN 7.5 and we can all add them to our lists etc.
Jinxer@wcnet.org
I will get it started.

I just use trillian so I have AIM, Yahoo, Jabber, etc running at once haha.. but Online play isn't going to be popular until the patch comes out.. so you may want to wait until then.
Or maybe make the "TOH" room like ranked room 5 or whatever to seperate people and avoid the "square talkers"

With this many fixes is has to help something or at least I hope so. I didn't see anything about elemental stockpiles and crypts not booting your opponent either. If there's one thing I've found with software it's that something wrong in one spot can cause any number of other problems in others without the designers expecting it... that is what most bugs are in the first place. So I'm optimistic that not having all those above errors is bound to help MP and any number of them could have been contributing to the sync problems. In any case you'll see me in the lobby in about 4 hours.

Yeah that and because of all the players there that have no interest in tournament play was why I suggested making Ranked 5 the ToH the other day. I think it would be easier if we sort of made Ranked 5 our own so when you go in there you have a better chance of knowing that the players in there are more likely ToH. I have typed "Anyone Toh?" 500 frickin times in the last week and a half in Ranked 1.
Although the non-ranked rooms do have a couple more maps to play than the ranked ones...

Yes, seems we need parralel chat system.
You like MSN?
Need discuss it.
I already have an ICQ (147430635) but seems no problem instell another messenger foor TOH purposes only.
And may be we agree to take some room as TOH room in UBI.

Lets make it Offical!! Rating Room 5 for TOH
Lets all agree from now one. Rating room 5 is TOH's playground. Lets leave the rating 1 to the square talkers.
Dont forget to mark your rooms TOH.

I'm all for that. I'll be in Rated 5 from now on. I'll also be setting up a ToH-only HoMM ID for MSN IM tonight which I will post later... trying to decide what I want it to be... lol

Im in vancouver on a laptop right now; but I have already figured out a nice plan to help you guys meet up -- though the AIM thing is cool too. I remember the ICQ days haha. But the only way to get the masses to be introduced to ToH is by playing in those rooms.
