Eagerly awaiting your sound files for the client...
Thanks

Crickets are what you hear when there's nothing else going on, because your opponent is taking 5 minutes to play their turn, again.

I wasn't convinced a few days ago but when 20+ spectators /cheer /stomps and /aah at the same time it works very very very well. Just give them a chance and I'm predicting they'll win us over. Granted when only one spec /cheer it doesn't really sound like a 20.000 ppl are in the stands but then that's probably a pretty un-interesting game from a community point of view.
The frequent difference between the number at "gate" and number of real live spectators is difficult to do anything about.
Anyway i found this site

and if the sounds the client offers doesn't do it for you just click on a few select overlapping wavs while you play and enjoy the noise.
(tried to get a link in there but i forgot how to do it)

i don't understand it, /hurt was taken away because it's not a crowd noise, and then all the sounds that were brought in sound like they were sampled from a TV show.

I always imagined hurt to be a commentator. Commentators don't make cricket sounds

I don't like the actual sound effect but I think the idea is great! Nothing going on with the game? Send in the crickets!

Actually, hurt was taken away because of copyright issues, iirc.

I think that Stomp should be renamed to Rain...

Crickets works great as a potential cheer for the Slann team. Sounds like Tree Frogs.
