#mpuktf2.pickup2 dying?

Medding can be an utterly demoralising experience as a few people have illustrated and I’m not going to say it again but simply say “yup yup yup true true true”.

From what I’ve seen though, the medic crisis isn’t as bad in pickup2 as it is in pickup1 – I’ll frequently go to myself, “okay if there still isn’t a medic in #2 in 5 minutes I’ll just med up, people want to play a match”, but oftentimes someone does step up… whereas on #1, you could be waiting 30 minutes for a medic… (I wonder why!)

Also, skill restriction in pickup2 would be horrible, IMO – if it’s dying, surely reducing the number of players who can go there would be precisely the opposite of what you want to do. (Also then I’d get kicked out and would have to play in pickup1 and nggggg please no.)

The Finnish #gather.fi and #thematsi are going strong and the skill level at least on thematsi has always been better than on invite pickups. And ofc we use Mumble on both of them. Time to learn Finnish maybe? :)

Hehe.

Maybe just make it so in pickup2 you can report people for just being idiots? Like, I dont mean someone going pyro on last or something like that i mean just generally ruining the pickup but to an extent that would usually not be worth reporting… Also ill say it again report people without mics, for the love of god, and report people who greif in pickups by going sniper for the whole thing etc…

Soon as you introduce too many finish speaking non-finns though, it will end up losing it’s awesomeness and you’re back to like, invite pickup or something :p

Also, I’ve noticed that a lot of the time when someone is reported using !admin on pu2, it goes completley unnoticed by all the admins. Perhaps add a few admins, or integrate a better reporting system (web based or whatever).

Oh good it’s a meerkat today.

So there’s actually a 3rd mpuktf2.pickup channel? Or is #mpuktf2.pickup2 the “invite” channel?

rule #1: you dont talk about invite.
SNAP
:P
let’s say, p2 has 70% of them as well, and it’s more relaxed, that’s why inv died in the first place.

There is a third where all the pros plus a few complete shitters who slipped through the cracks play.

I think it could be cool to create new pickup channels for players of 1-3 divs

mpuk2 basically IS that, Archangel :) At least from my point of view it was. But meh.

edit: yay, nice ava finally.

cheee

it is not (there is no skill div3+ needed to play in pug2)
it’s simply in the rules:

If you regularly use good English communications in the standard pickup channel, you will be eligible to play here, regardless of your skill or clan status.

The invite pug could be, if they* wouldn’t be so lazy and arrogant to invite more mid players.
*forgot the names :P
