SourceTV, while it allows alot of people, every person watching via STV adds about half the resources used as a normal in-game. I.E. having 6 people watching in STV would be about the same load on the server as 3 people sitting in spectate and with the performance issues we’re having already, i don’t think its such a good idea.

Then relay

Play pickups and mix/merc. You wont gain any skill on the pub.

Why would you want to watch skilled players playing on a pub? They won’t be playing like it’s actually a match, so it won’t help you improve at all. Watch some top 6v6 matches on stv if you want to learn without playing.

… or download demos and watch them. Indeed, the pub is more of a relaxation place, you will learn none to little from it. The advantage would be that people actually are expected to not be clueless when they play there, which has been hugely successful so far (in the aspect of it being a PUBLIC). I’d still like Quality Before Quantity, but that’s just me.

Recent changes are new gullywash map (rc8), high ping kicker (unbelievable we needed to enable this) and the addition of three new admins — Arnold, Kyynel and Ditchy. Scramble plugin continues to work quite well, but I’m considering to tweak it to make it kick in sooner.

alright i waited ages to join the server, so i leave my old server to play there, just to get disconnected while connecting already, due to RESERVED SLOT, so imho there shouldnt be reserved slots on this server, and however if there are reserved slots are they just for admins?

There is a reserved slot for admins when receiving complaints. Let me explain how it works.

The server itself hosts more than 24 slots, but hides the reserved slot so that “auto-retry”-function will work to join the server. If one player drops, the server will report 23/24 players — leaving any auto-retry client the signal to try and connect to the server. Since there are really more than 24 slots, if two clients refreshes the server at the same time, they will detect a slot availabe and try and join it. Since one of the clients no doubt will be slower than the other, it will get the 25th slot and get kicked for “slot reservation”.

The solution to this would be to remove the reserved slot, but then we could not act upon reported abuse on the server.

My assessment is that the few occasions when this happens is justified by the ability to have a quick response to any complaints.

True, I have been on this server a couple of days, but already my soldiering has shot up because of some techniques, such a staying back, and aimed spam, which you don’t really learn on normal pubs
