Ideas for more fun.

[DarkViper]

Well currently i'm bored. "/

Just some ideas to make the tf2 server more fun. (:

- Maybe have  nights were we have  melee only and low grav for a bit to get servers going? (Great fun)

- Evrey sunday have a little clan match .:ne:. memebers against others? Trains us (We would get raped)  

Just a few ideas. I thought why not.

First of all I'm quite drunk so this may not make sense.(ffs don't delete).Sunday tends to be match night for the league.This works well for us as most players are available.Secondly melee and low gravity have limited appeal so we would have to be careful implementing it.
It is currently being decided by higher power(no offense)as to what to do with the second server.It could be made into a custom server with one-off occasions where it could be melee only.
As you know Darkviper,when we went melee only by choice one night we consistently got an idiot who used weapons.This is because they have no idea about it till they join.I believe that would not be the case on the other server as it would be described on the tab.I enjoyed melee but not low grav.This just shows how everybody is different.I would not like to join a server and find it is low gravity.
As for friendlies I agree we need more.LC has done a fantastic job arranging that but it was always the same players due to it being late notice.I am thinking of arranging a clan vs community match 6 on 6.Would appreciate input on this as we have some excellent community players and it would show them what matches are like.

Clan vs community or clan vs randoms would be good, if a little unfair.


clan players would be raped

There is a melee mod I quite like, can't remember the server, maybe ViA. Sudden death was melee only, and it had all players forced to the same class (random). Not that we play any maps that have sudden death/stalemate though, but if we did it is definitely a great laugh.

I did try to find a mod that made it melee only when under a certain amount of players (like 6). Melee is pretty fun on empty servers, shame that not everyone plays by the rules though.

How about party mod during the day (off-peak times) till the server fills?

I've just been playing on a server and they had melee only. But you couldnt choose any other weapons.
I thought i was cool. I see your point henchie.

Melee only, excuse my ignorance but wouldn't everyone just be the scout???!!???

[ekay]

Not necessarily, counter a melee scout with a melee heavy.

[Paranoia]

Scout has speed Zofo, but his bat is the weakest melee weapon

[EDIT] I must qualify this a bit more. Generally, as things go, I would much rather be playing normally. However, there have been occasions when melee only during sudden death has had appeal. We tend not to play on many maps that need Sudden Death though! [/EDIT]

The squad's getting better at playing scrims, both pre-arranged and inpromtu.  Indeed we should also:
1. Arrange squad scrim evenings - ie "tonight we'll be arrangings friendlies"
2. Include regulars in them
3. Arrnage internal wars, including regulars, with split chan TS.

I'm on it.

As for my 2 cents - I hate melee only. I find it monotonous and boring  

I just find melee highlights TF2's lag compensation more. You get hit by people in melee who are nowhere near you, melee battles just seem like luck. Not to mention they crit so much more, and a single melee crit is enough to kill most classes.

indeed, thats why i go heavy

[Carth]

Why?
