OCR TF2: New Server forthcoming - new server IPs and other stuff

Gotta agree with Depo. There are already so many custom maps on the rotation.

I mean, I wouldn't be against putting 'em on the server for RTV, but the fact is that almost anytime a custom map comes up it hurts the server population and we end up RTVing off of it in a few moments.

Ah nice, good job finding the mistakes - I've had problems finding them, and was going to take this morning to but it looks like you were able to do my job.

Also, about customs - there are only two custom maps on the rotation, pacman and cashworks. That's too much?

I, for one, think the rotation doesn't have enough pacman.

I was just wondering if we could perhaps find some new custom maps people would enjoy, and put them on the server? The same old stuff is just starting to get bland.

pl_badwater

tc_hydro

cp_dustbowl

cp_well

Edit: Looks like I forgot to pose the question - would you all want a map rotation change, and what suggestions do you all have?

Oh, oops. I definitely thought there were more custom maps on the rotation.

I take my previous statement back.

I hear you. :<

Yesterday we had more of the same messed up map rotations. Within 6 maps or so, we had sawmill and cashworks come up twice each. I think cashworks got votenextmapped though. Thank CHRIST. :sad:

basically there is no reason for any map to be on the rotation more than once

There are 17 maps on the rotation, and consider a 30 minute minimum round time (more for some, less for others, and with overtime it probably averages out to even more than that) you won't see a map more than once (unless it gets RTV'd or changed) without playing for at least 8 1/2 hours. Which is probably why Dustbowl and Badwater are on there twice, and that's still 3+ hours between seeing those maps.

It'd be nice if we had 2-3 different rotations that got swapped out daily, but I don't know if that's too much work for the admins or what. Give every rotation a dose of valve maps, and a custom or two, and no more than 8-10 maps in any one rotation. That should do pretty good for keeping things mixed up since it would change daily.

Also, is there a way to make the pre-load friendly fire time melee-only?

Well, if people want other rotations to be swapped up for different days, then suggest some! I'll only take them if the flow and map frequency is on at a good amount though.

This.

And for that "custom map" thing, what exactly is defined as a custom map? I'm pretty damn sure that list is bigger than the official map set.

And why does everyone hate Hoodoo?

maps that were not made by valve nor canonized as official

And why does everyone hate Hoodoo?

because it's a really bad map

or to put it more bluntly, any map you have to download before you can play it on the server.

Explain? It had to have been made official for a reason.

Actually, I was wondering why he said that. I didn't think hoodoo was all that bad. And that's from a person whose team managed to get shut out before taking the first point before.

So, due to various difficulties (that I'm sure many of you have noticed) over the past weekend, I have obtained a separate Steam account for the purpose of playing TF2. Those of you who had me previously friended will most likely need to re-friend me for the one I will actually be playing on. I'll still be going by the same handle though - [OCR] Sporknight. Unfortunately, this means I'll have to re-earn all those unlockable weapons and hats, but it'll be a nice opportunity to get a clean slate with stats and stuff I suppose.

Also, Baha, if you could re-add me to the reserve slot, and you can prolly remove the old ID. You can go off the steam ID I was playing with June 1st on the server. Thanks!
