A new Gikopoi server dropped, https://play.gikopoi.com , repo overviewing changes/additions on github:153/gikopoi-illegal

No huge changes yet, but any characters/maps submitted will be approved.

The first real problem for the community to handle: how should stream slots be allocated? We can see in the github:iccanobif/gikopoi2 repo (see also: tanasinn wiki sortable table) that the rooms' stream slots are allocated in semi random ways; many rooms have 0 stream slots, while some of the larger rooms only have 2 or 1 slot.

Some ideas:

  • Give all rooms a handful of stream slots, and give some other rooms a bunch of slots. Means anyone can stream as-needed no matter where they may be.
  • Keep gikopoi2 default stream slots; why fix it if it's not broken?
  • Only give stream slots to 1 or 2 rooms, to encourage streamers/voice chatters to assemble in common spaces, and to give the rest of the server
    a break from streamers


I'm planning for now to have the default room, train, have 10 stream slots available, and maybe assigning another 10 slots (and forced anonymity) to the secret "lost lounge" room. One of my motivations for this is considering that in "oldpoi", streaming was rare; and in new poi, most people gravitate to where slots are anyway, and competition for slots can get hostile.

Let's have some discourse and decide together how we want "another gikopoi" to evolve.
