Cut many CTF maps. Still 62 left. Surprised. Many old favorites gone. They were too big.

I want to add many more new ones I've come across, but might not be able to before tonight. See you then!

I'm going to be quite late by the looks of it, sorry guys. I hurriedly put on the new maps earlier that I was speaking of, so enjoy them! I hope there aren't any issues. I'll be on when I can, if y'all are still playing.

:O I never even got first place score of my own team ONCE! Everyone else did! Arrrgh still so far to climb.

Guys, we have got to pull more old players back in. Several hours of games we stuck with it. No one else came. What methods of strategy can we employ?!

It's a team game Rip :p Notice the number of deaths I had on possium? Quarter of those were probably intentional suicides, because that's part of my strategy to win the game. :)

Also it's hard to top leaderboard often as a runner I find. You seemed to be on offense most matches.

I am not sure what to do to get people back. A few guys normally around haven't been all week. Soul, torm , soggy. @Rahuah said he stopped coming here because there are too many downloads to get in. He must be on 56k :p
Would be nice if Dave Turd joined us more often. Same with the Chaos duo but I know they have lives and such. Not sure what happened to that super flea guy that was coming in often. He seems to have stopped playing UT again. I'll reach back out. Deafbasturd usually only plays after he's had more than a few drinks and has nothing else going on.

There are 30 or so people in the Facebook group but none ever communicate or play.

And yet look at your score! :p lol. JK, really. Honestly it feels good to be climbing up the ladder again. My best times in EO were when I had great players to look up to. Not that I look up to any of you bums! Heheh. It's frustrating too, though, because defense was always my thing, and I was great at it, and I usually can't defend at all now. That's why I was going on offense last night. I didn't communicate it, and my team didn't communicate any really, so I know we could have done better. Though I feel like we worked well together despite that. I tried to assist a lot, but I could have done it more, and next time I want to try to.

The Shock obviously hasn't gotten any weaker. And while my ability with it still isn't what it used to be.... though I feel it's not far, now - it's clear that the Sniper is just becoming The One Weapon To Rule Them All lol. I could probably take it up and not do terrible with it now, and be a better defender than with Shock. Osk has reached such a skill level with it though that ehhh hehe. On some maps like many of the newer ones I added Shock is still great at defending, well, unless Osk is attacking and wants to kill me first. :p But on others, and even Bollwerk was taken from me, I'd just so much rather attack than deal with that, and acknowledge that someone like Maest or Sparky is now a better defender than me on them. Dagger's a good defender too, he's a great "fisherman" lol haha. I don't think I'm a bad attacker, but I still need work. It's hard to gauge yourself when you're against Osk. ;-)

For getting people back, well, we need more contact information! I need to get in that facebook group, damn it. Facebook grrrr hehe. If they're not going to come back then I don't care if I bug the hell out of them! :flame:

I've been waiting until the ADR I've been working on and CTF4 is a little further along, though. Before long I'll have the FerBotz on and the gamemodes changed up so there's one the bots stay on, on others they leave, and have the Ripper in the game.

For Rah, WTF. Does he not know to reconnect to speed it up sometimes? I clean my cache and get in within a couple minutes. And once they're in your cache.... :wtf: Having Rah back would be a major improvement.

For DeafBastard.... make sure he didn't inflict self harm, will you? Last time I saw him I changed the mode to DM when it was the goo on testing and the bots were insane with it. And left him. Said have fun. lol. I facepalmed later when I thought about it. Haven't seen him since.

I really miss Flea. And what's up with Torm and Soul? *cries* And Soggy! Get your Soggy Ass back in there!

By the way, what did people think of the new maps I added? Curious which ones people liked, and which ones people didn't.

Shock is still as effective as it was then, it's always been second to a really good sniper though because damage can be at a distance. I also think perspective has changed because at best we're playing 3v3 whereas back in the day full servers were common and you could focus on your thing while others did theirs, while having others around to help.

Deafbasturd is doing ok I've seen him posting in Facebook up to his usual shenanigans.

As for the new maps, I wasn't in love with any I tried (dagger and I played about 6 in a row before maest came in)

The 512*** map didn't work. No mismatch errors it just disconnected and then a different map was up.

A few of them I wasn't fond of but I just won't vote for them. I think maest was sad about warrior though.

Awww! I really like smaller maps that enhance the action we have now. And different layouts to freshen things up. Appreciate you being honest.
The 512 map must be missing a texture or music file. But... lol. If you didn't like any of the others, maybe it's for the best haha. That one is a brutal space map. :p If you don't hit the flagpost right it will bounce you back into space. I should probably take it off, because strangely people get mad about that kind of thing. ;)

Stop putting me on a pedestal! My aim is bad!

Maybe. I don't even see you aiming anymore. My screen just blinks red and starts shaking and then I'm dead. :crysmile:
Maybe Osk uses BLACK MAGIC. Hehe. I've tried playing without the red flashes, TBH it didn't make any difference - I'm still knocked around with a shaking screen and dead before the next second passes. I want to see if the reduced firerate of ADR RX helps even though it's so slight you don't notice. Helps it feel better, anyway. I don't think it will change my deadness haha. I've known for a long time the SR had the potential to become a godly weapon in the hands of the right user. I just never thought that pipsqueak Oskeno would be the right user. :mwink:

I know I cry about it, but I relished the challenge in trying to get away from you with the flag. Not much more challenging than attacking with Oskeno on defense these days.

Not a fan of small maps.

Tried CTF-FacePalm and am stuck downloading a 84000K FacePalmT package that doesn't look to be on redirect.

:-( I used to never like them, but with most our fights being 1v1 or 1v2, plus the overbearing dominance of the sniper, I've been wanting smaller maps. Being against snipers on the old maps I usually stand no chance. Smaller maps are better fights for me. I think there's still plenty of decent sized maps on the server though.

That's odd about the file not being on redirect. I'll test it out. Sorry about that. I should compress that if I'm going to keep it on too. The server resets the map after 20 minutes.

BTW, FacePalm is a big map. *wink*

I loved all of the new maps. More or less.
