I can’t do anything on it either. I had similar issues with tf2pickup.net. And still have.

Perhaps mixes/pugs aren’t for me and I should quit TF2. Yes, that must be it.

Good work Qball! ^^

Looking forward to trying out this thing. One thing i’ve noticed is that some signups tend to get stuck if the users quit the site. For example, i’m writing this at 08:50 CET in the morning, and there are still people signed up on red from yesterday, even though they have quit both the site and the irc channel.

This probably means that if the mix would start, we would have to get subs for those people.

Maybe some kind of votekick system, or afk system to make sure those users don’t stay signed on even if they forget to remove themselves.

ps the map vote is really cool

Needs a more pithy url, I keep having to come back here for the link. logs.tf is a perfect example, short, easy to remember and perfectly explains what it is.

Added new function to prevent users from staying in pickup if they leave the page.
Unfortunately it works for page refresh as well, so be careful when you do that.

Also, after a friend’s pickup started, he just got a message “Looks like the gameurl you provided is not the right one. If you got here by mistake, please contact admin”
and he couldn’t join.

In cases like that you can go to your profile and use link for pickup there.

You also said, you couldn’t join pickup. Can you tell me what browser are you using, and if you have javascript enabled.

EDIT: I fixed sounds, changed sub system slightly and added some fixes so I can start working on new ready up system.

i doubt it’s possible but blocking people without any seasons played maybe?

I don’t think this on its own would be a good way of doing it, I don’t know much for other players but myself before I joined Kill Switch I had not been registered on a team. I have friends who are at least competent in Highlander who haven’t played in teams and shutting them out seems fairly arbitrary. It would definitely keep out a lot of people who do not know how to play at least, but at the moment the channel’s bigger problem seems to be getting players on, rather than the quality of the games themselves.

I have one suggestion for Q-Ball right now and that is to make it very clear at the top of the page on the pickup site that Mumble 1.2.4 is required, if people are just linked to the pickup page there is no way I can see that people are notified, it is not mentioned on the Steam group either, and so they will not find out until the game is ready to start.

edit: why does this site let me post the same thing twice

I’d donate towards getting a new URL if you want, if you want an .eu URL I can register it if needed since I think non-europes can’t get them
