woah woah woah... little orange worm? I assume you mean my avatar which is actually Earl, from Tojam & Early who were the original homeboys.

This version is geting a "Homie" on my Funk-o-Meter (thats a good thing) :D

The funk-o-meter (which i may later use as a scale) is a basic scale from 1-10 in accending order:

(unranked, they never really had a name for it but it was there)
Weiner
Doofus
Poindexter
Bro
Peanut
Dude
Homie
Rapmaster
Funklord

As a joke, fun thing to play, 1.7 is great but in reality it would actually be very good if more mass was added to the ball (so it didnt bounce so much) people were at normal size and no low grav as a real game version. Everyone i'v played with today said it totally kicked ass. If you slowed it down to about 4/5 its current speed and reduced hammer radius i think DB would DEFINATLY be a Funklord type game. 1.7 is very bluntly put "stupid fun" which can actually be very well played depending on how a team works together.

oh, btw, can you put up a link to just the 1.6 deathball.u file? i dont really want to DL 10.5MB of stuff i dont need.
