Whoa! last two post are freaking me out. The auto ban has been dealing with blatent Tker's very well. in fact the first day it was too well and legitamate players were getting sent off. I've scaled it back since then and if it is still too strong I will scale it back more but at the risk that Tkers will exploit the oppurtunity.

As to the second post I don't know an Omega and girls don't normally play Halo so who is this clown hitting on. Inquiring minds want to know.

While I was playing, everybody was very polite, no purposeful tking went on, and the games were fast-paced and action-packed.

I've seen Zen, Oni Ryu, and a couple others on it.

So for me, I have nothing to complain of, with the possible exception that you might want to take down Blood Gulch's respawn counter by one or two seconds. But aside from that people are always saying, "Wow, that game was great, let's do it again!" Then of course because it's a dedi that doesn't happen, but they still like the next game. So all around people love it.

Sorry I was blitzed when I read that the first time. Lesson to all don't read forums when you all drunked up. k moving on. It's my understanding from discussions about the Bungie server that people want FF on because it is realistic. Some of the gametypes I have in there lend them selves to TKs namely Sidewinder CTF. You get some reds and blues in the confined space of a base and people start throwing nades like rice at a wedding. If anyone gets banned from the servers let me know here and I will take you off unless I hear that your a TKing chump. As for Omega I'll keep an eye out when I'm on there. I always find it amusing when people start hitting on player with feminine names because that could a 40-year old fat man playing naked and you wouldn't know the difference.

So that being said here are some guidelines/rules I enforce when I'm a playing on the server:

1. AFK's if I notice that your not there you will REALLY not be there. This server is popular it took me 20min to join yesterday because it constantly full. If your going to step away for more then a minute. Get off and let other people play.

2. TKing is enforced by an 3TK autoban. If you find someone intentionally quitting to avoid this limit post their name here and I will try to ban them when I am on. If it is a persistent problem I will hand out temporary rcon access to try and catch him.

3. Port/spawn/flag camping. Keep these to a minimum. Camping is exceptable in Assault but parking a rocket hog on the flag in Sidewinder is kinda cheap.

4. Foul/racial language. I don't mind a little but if its consistent and disruptive your going to get a timeout.

5. Keep the vehicle out of the buildings. Don't drive in the Sidewinder base running everyone over, grab the flag, wait for a couple to respawn and run them over on your way out. Keep hog noobing to a minimum also.

Keep it clean and let's all have some fun!

god, I hate when people do that,especially on blood gulch wne there's multiple hogs stuck in the opening of the bases...in about half of those CTF games I make it my personal duty to keep the base spick and spam ;)

Meh. It better not be too strict, I use cursewords when dying. And I tend to curse out TKers and idiots. I also use...5exu41 perverseness when cursing...someone once told me I just scarred their innocent mind...

Awesome Iggwilv on the sticky. I just barely noticed..Duh! Hopefully there will be some people on tonight, haven't seen too many past couple of night's. Probably the time zone thing.

Looks like everything is set up nicely on this server, will look forward to playing on it.

Swearing does not bother me, I must say I cuss from time to time, unless admins doesn't want that. And I hate to freak out the youngens, but oh well public school will to that in time.

That's kick ass me king got the boot. That must have felt good, wish I could have been there.

How much does this server cost per month? I might be able to help out on the cost.

See you guy's there.

i played for liek 3 1/2 hours tonight and it was awsome. I had a friend from xfire join me in the server *it was empty at the time* and we has a 1 on 1 game on damnation for a few minuts *absolute fun* then it was 2 on 2, then it went up from there. I played all the way to Bloodgulch where it was a full 16 players. and then someone with a worse connection joined then my lag all went to hell. I had a steady red box for 10 minuts then i finaly quit at the begining of hang em high. I tried to rejoin at danger canyon but too much lag for me.

Oh well, it was awsome when i was able to play. =D

PS I won the Chrilon match the person in second only had 3 kills ^^
PPS I have dial-up and i had almost no lag when there were less than 12 people ^^

Yes, I love your server, even though I have to connect through xfire thanks to Gamespy, it is very fun and today everybody was having a great time, or at least talked like it. Zen and I had a couple pretty sweet games on there! Great server and we hope that Gamespy gets its bearings again soon.

Yes, excellent night on the maw server. Lot's of good competition. The auto-ban system is working nicely and a good map set. Prop's to ateabanana for giving me 99% of my death's on Sidewinder, that was some fancy nade-work. The server seemed to be full pretty much the whole time I was on. I encourage everyone to come and play, mainly Maw people.

Happy hunting.

Going to add a No-shield shotgun slayer in Longest and probably change the sniper slayer map from Infinity to Boarding Action. The only game type I've left out is Race which most people dont like, anyway. The only maps not represented are Ratrace(too dark) and Wizard (just didn't put it in). I suppose I could make up a wacky gametype, i.e. 200% shield and infinate plasma nades, and throw that in there for one of them. Keep the suggestions coming.

Ratrace with crazy king of the hill is really hectic and fun.so i wouldn't mind that being putin
if rat race is too dark couldn't u just try and make the brightnes on ur comp higher?also when i joined yesterday no one was playing it was on damnation i went on there a few times but no one came
so hopefully there will be more ppl when i join.
i hate boarding action so please keep it on infinity
thnx for hearing me out

Yeah I really hate boarding action too, but maybe you should make it for those sniping-lovers. And yes, def put in a wacky thing on wizard with 200% shields, infinite plasma nades, and needlers. That would be pretty sweet : ) good playing yesterday btw Zen and Iggwilv.

Took out the Infinity map, just wasn't popular. Since people don't seem to like boarding action I will set up a sniper game on Blood Gulch, can't go wrong there. Tried to add a no shield shotguns on Longest but it didn't like the gametype so I will work on that. I'll throw in the wacky Wizard game too. The only other map in jeopardy in the Chiron-TL34 phantoms. You need patience to play that match and a lot of people don't. I like it too much to take it out yet though.

Ya, I didnt really like the Infinity snipers, just too big for it =(. What about having a race game-type on Infinity though? That *might* be a good one... but I think that Death Island has a better racetrack. I also love Chiron, you can go in cirecles all day! It can even be funny if people go in the same direction... until one stops for a sec... then its a one room pile up fight! =D

Is there any map that has alot of vehicles on it?

Yes you deffinately can't go wrong with Blood Gulch Snipers. Excellent choice. Wizard is cool with shotguns. Even Hangem' High with pistol's, but I believe you already have a good Hangem' High set up. As for a race map, I think Death Island is about the best race map. Really that is the only reason why I would play that map.

Check your filters to make sure you're not blocking the server out. Also Gamespy has had a little trouble lately with servers and you might have to wait a couple days before you can find it again.

I agree, Blood Gulch is a great sniping spot, good choice. And I like that Chiron game you got going on, keep it for awhile until you really think it's hurting your server. And you already have a rocket level if I remember correctly, so it would be pretty sweet if you put up that crazy plasma nade and needler Wizard gametype. Death Island race is also a good idea. And the Longest, no shields, shottys for all game would be pretty decent too : )

I creamed the other team the only game I played on this server. Too bad it was CTF and not slayer. Some guy got 2 caps to my 1, 5 kills to my 65 or 68 or somthing like that. I get really low ping, so expect me there some times.

OK, reset the server with the new maps. There's a Blood Gulch sniper, Longest no shield shotty and the wacky Wizard. Threw in a Danger Canyon normal CTF for good measure. In addition, I increased the respawn to 10 sec on the sidewinder and icefields CTF and changed the ctf_pros to normal ctf so there would be a time limit. Those games were lasting forever when the server is full. I probably won't tinker with the rotation much more then that.

For those of you that have Teamspeak(TS) I'm going to post my TS server info here so you guys can connect when your playing and talk to each other. Here are the rules:

1). You must set your TS client to Push to Talk NOT voice-activated. We don't need to hear everytime you groan or fart, and when everyone is talking at the same time no one hears anything.

2). Keep profanity, racial and political insults and whining to a minumum.

3). Only use the TS server when you are playing on our server. It only has 12 slots so I don't need to hogging it up BSing with your friends.

If you abuse the server you will be banned from it.

Teamspeak Server: ts20.clanservers.com:8824 you can login anonymously and create a user name.
