http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Respawn_times

The wiki shows typical (not holding cp4) max respawn time of 20 seconds, but respawn windows themselves appear to last 8 seconds (or 7 if holding cp4, and gully seems a bit different). This seems to give a max respawn time for when you die 2 seconds before the end of the current window: 2 + 8 + 8 = 18. Also I don’t recall ever seeing a 20 second respawn. The wiki is wrong, or 5cp configs have changed?

I see plenty 20sec timers. You usually don’t notice them because you’re still calling where you died, etc pp; and when you first check spawntimes, you spawn in 15sec.

Shouldn’t we be able to get this kind of data from logs?
