Question for Administration Options

[Simbumgowa]

Just thought I would ask ??

Can the amount of players be increased on MWCM ?? The reason I ask is the server is so full

on the week ends that you can hardily get in the game at all or you have to wait for ever !!

Its worth the wait but 40 players would be GREAT.



P.S. OldManMike & A/T6Pak you two RULE and have been so GREAT & Welcoming

I just wanted to say THANK YOU

Here's my 2cents on private slots .. I am against having them on mwcm.

My experience has been that private slots are not used unless the server is already full when the player wants to get in. Otherwise, players typically jump into the public slots. And I've rarely seen someone realize that the server is publically full and so purposefully quit out of the server and come back in using a private slot, thereby freeing up a public slot.

In other words, since mwcm is a 30-slot server, if you made 6 private slots, what you'd do in reality is cut the server down to 24-slots for a majority of run-time. It would also pull-down the server's ranking by taking it down to 24-slots.

Yes, I know Barb and Tuch run fine with private slots... the players there use Vent and so can keep an eye on when the servers' getting full and then realize they should jump out and come back into private slots.

MWCM is full a lot of the time, true, all 30-slots filled to the brim. But my experience is that if I try to get in just a couple of times, I'll get in. With 30 players on a TDM server, there's always somebody jumping out of the server, 'cause it's no big deal to leave in the middle of a round, not like in BAS.

Of course, if we get a bunch of new {MOB}s and/or {MOB} [Regs] all chipping in on the server rental, then sure, we ought to raise it up to 40 slots and make all 10 new slots private. I'd be fine with that.
