Still no Santa hats and Capture the Tree? :(

CandyCanes or ONSXmas too please! Preferably the no-sound varieties just so that people don't want to hurl their speakers out the window after the first 30 seconds...

Also, I can't be there this weekend. Up to my head with coding projects and finals, that and I got roped into helping out with our 3rd annual "show in 24 hours" with the drama honor society on campus. Ooops.

What size of textures are these. low blow 256*256, or ultra mega 2024*2024. Are these bump mapped or normal mapped textures as well.

GG's even thought I got on early, won a match, felt like crap, went to sleep, then woke up to spec a 500000 hour long ons match, then played Romra, thorns, and albatross.

It was pretty good tonight, though it ended on a sour note.

Can we PLEASE have a little more cooperation with teams here? That game on Terra was absolute crap, and no one would switch while it went 4-0 Blue.

Winning is all fine and dandy, but when teams are off like that - where you can generally storm the base and the other team can't mount any sort of offense or defense - it's time to switch up.

ggs last night, had fun running over the "vehekal" crew.
I would have stayed longer, but I wasn't feeling it and there were people speccing and wanting to play.

Good to see you flying about in your Manta again, Huggy. :tup:

Here's my thoughts on 'teams'. We need to pipe up before the match starts or suck it up and let the chips fall where they may. If someone says something before the game even starts - there's probably a good reason. If people start yelling teams after the game starts and their team starts losing - well, sour grapes.

I hope we can play some more JB tonight - I missed out on all of the JB fun. (not heights) :D

ggs all!

We had some really well-balanced CTF and JB games where people switched mid-map. That goes great as long as the people that are vocal about uneven teams actually do something about it, and switch themselves and/or ask someone specifically from the other team to swap.

Well, that's true... but not if the vocal person is the leading scorer of the team. Far too often we start off a game unbalanced (and no one says anything), then we get a lopsided score and then one of the top scorers for the winning team goes to the losing team - unbalancing it in the other direction. That's no fun either.

Just say something before we start - be receptive to the request - and after that, let the game go on. Lots of times the teams ARE even, but one team is simply outplaying the other. That's gonna happen imo.

A warmup mode for those two might be good, zyn.

Yeah... Is there any way to get a warmup mode for ONS at least? It's pretty ridiculous when only half or less of a team is available at match start. I have a feeling the games would be more balanced if both teams were able to get off to a good start by having everyone loaded and ready to go.
