Lets hook up broadsword on the ctf/hq server 7/24 for a bit to see if it catches. Maybe just over the holidays? Oh cmon, no one is ever in the CTF/HQ server! We can go back to the old rotation anytime.
Thoughts? |

I can get Broadsword going on there for ya. Do you want the large Broadsword or the small version? What gametype do you want it to be?

I think the key to success is this...
Pick 1-2 days a week over the next 2-3 weeks and call it "Broadsword" day. On that day, between 8-11 est, as many MOBs as possible that find the map the least bit interesting should go there. Problem before has been that we make a new map/idea, but no one goes, and no one joins an empty server. I remember when TF started, Scrapyard Bob was encouraging people to not just go, but stay in spectate even when they weren't playing. It meant the server showed up to people all the time, and it drew people in. It isn't good enough to just slap a good map on the server. We need to fill it for a while so people know it is out there. My 2 cents. --------------------  |

I'd set the rounds for 30 min, but at some help's request, I've changed it to 45 minutes. This will take effect at tomorrow morning's server restart.
Personally, I think 45 min is a bit long, means a whole round is an hour and a half. But if ya'll like it, then 45 minutes it will stay. Oh and Master of Disaster, you are correct about needing to camp a server to get people on. When I first started modern weapons custom maps, a friend and I camped that server nearly constantly for about a month to pull in gamers. You're right, folks won't join an empty server. -------------------- [img][/img]

I wanted to thank Steel, yet again! I would also like to apologize, as use of the servers should be based on group decisions, not the request of a single member. My bad for getting excited about playin broadsword, and asking Steel to get crackin!! Perhaps we can use Broadsword in the interim until everyone decides what is best for the server? I thought that it was idle much of the time...
In that vein, a few had suggestions today as we played. I propose suggestions to improve the rotation or gametype be posted and we can come to a group decision on whats best? SH This post has been edited by some_help: 11/23/06 8:13pm |

Your name is some help, not some pain in the ass! Now get off the damn forums and get back into that castle!
MoD - your idea is great. I think everyone responds when we can do things as a group. That is so fun when we can fill a server with a bunch of unruly MOB types. Lets do it! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! This post has been edited by HammaTime: 11/23/06 8:28pm |

I am surprised! I mean I just like the map... so I have to say what a day on the New Broadsword server! Turns out there is some interest, as we had a fairly busy first night. Between 10 and 2am est. I think we had as many as 18 or 19 on! pretty steady 8 on 8 for a few hours!
Help fire it up again tomorrow! Stop on in! Good times guys! sh |
