Poll: Restrict Test Builds to developers/contributers only and have stable open for public games

[maackey]

Because of all the drama with chili, perhaps it is best to restrict the test versions for testers?

This would also encourage new people to download the latest stable, as they will know that they will be able to get into a game because they actually have the version being played.

When someone hosts a test game people who may have otherwise joined cannot because they don't have the latest test.

So basically you're saying put a password on Oxygen? That could work. No one will make the mistake of joining it unless they specifically state they want to test latest.

[CarRepairer]

We could make the password "iunderstandthisisatest" and put it in the #CA topic.

Im fine with that .. password could be "iknowitsbetatest"

[Google Frog]

Put up an extra autohost for stable though.

[licho]

You got planetwars and springie.

Oxygen now has "test" password set.

I think bigger games on test versions help to decide if the changes are okay or not. We had also phases were no stable was released for some time and no one played stable.

Btw: I added a warning for test versions. You see it only at the beginning.
