Dummy

Quoted from Koeitje

[…]
What killed the old pug:
– no balance, so all teams were fucked up over half the time -> leads to fucking about because there is literally no point in playing <10min games and Adam completely ignoring this problem ever since the pug channel opened. It had been suggested so many times to have some sort of balance but he couldn't be bothered. The same is happening now. Its awesome that he runs the channel, but if you want to do something at least do it right.
– unstable servers

to be honest I played a lot in the old pug and didn’t have much balance troubles – perhaps a PUG out of four, five, it happened, and it was especially rare past midnight. Although it was an issue and still is, it’s was not, for me atleast, as big as you put it.

the main problem of course was the server issue, but what killed the fun for me previously was seeing much better players than me behaving (and indeed they did own it) like they owned the channel – punishments were different for them than others, they got away with what other people didn’t, their sole opinion mattered more than an entire PUG saying he broke the rules. I see your point though – if you actually only broke one rule, then you should have a warning only, not a (is it?) permanent ban for it, even if you did fuck the next pug up for the other team by going engie, but w/e, that wasn’t banned at the time.
you have to understand whoever banned you though, after all there is a ‘be nice’ rule (as vague as it is) so either get a sub if you don’t want to play in an obviously unbalanced PUG

What destroyed the old pickup was the complete lack of balancing. Shame you haven’t bothered to implement it.

Just fyi so you can get your facts straight and stop making a fool of yourself in at least one area (no offense, just trying to help out);

Skill balancing (to some extent) *has* actually been implemented (seen the !skill thing at all?). At some point it was decided that this skill system needed some modifications though, and that is why it’s not working right now. If software development was as easy and fast as blinking your eyes I’m sure it would’ve been done already, but as with many things in life, it isn’t easy and instant.

AUTOBOTS

So it would be unwise banning people because they were in a team that beat another team even while running an engi? Because the pug itself doesn’t have any methods implemented to stop such a thing from happening yet? Hell we won using medic, demo , 2 pyro, sniper and an engi. And I’ve always stated at the start of the round that I would switch to soldier if things didn’t work out. See basically my team agreed, but the enemy got butt hurt because they lost.

And besides, these pugs were going on at 2am-ish.

Switching from medic to heavy, most awesome tactic ever! I wish that was a viable tactic outside pickups… Sounds like it’s time to start playing pickups again.

I have done it countless times in pcws and officials and i have saved it sometimes by running heavy or pyro. =D
Your worthless as medic when there is nothing to heal anymore.

You need to have an account on quakenet. Name and pass. You cant use an irc webclient.

That’s simply not true. You can use a webclient perfectly well, auth systems are exactly the same.

But you can not auto-auth with webchat.
I recommend mIRC, it’s probably the most user friendly IRC client.
For more info on IRC see http://etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-483/?recent=208567
To register at quakenet, type /msg [email protected] hello email email
