Fleury is Player of the Week

[Fleury14]

So, what do you think ... could I be correct?

No. Not entirely.

There are people that for some reason or another prefer enjoy those DM-gutblowfests, I'm sure. I also believe most of those people are among the regulars that played on the server for hours on end. But there are also people that dont play because of them. I can pick off about 5-8 people that have come back just in the past week, and I bet the maps have something to do with it.

That being said, I dont have a problem with maps that aren't stock maps. I just would never make a rotation that has a majority of custom maps, nor would I lower my standards to allow some of the garbage that passes for a map to touch a server.

If you think the same 8 maps are boring, then how about this: Don't you get tired of the same 3 classes? Or the same 3 or so weapons? Or the same vehicles? Do people leave because of this?

In all honesty, I think the maps are working out nicely. In addition to that, they're going to change every week. Come tomorrow, we'll have an entirely new set of maps. There are plenty of great xmp (not dm) maps to pick from in the CBP, CXP, GFP, and Alienpod packs. So there should be no getting bored.

And Fleury, you bring up a good point. I've even seen Omni come back out AND I've also seen a refreshingly good number of NEW ppl.

All in all, the maps are working out great.

Very true and it has been good to see some of the old faces again...

...I stand corrected... and your point is well taken.

I wonder if NB noticed something about Fleury's map choice?

No Artidozen or Boxworld!!!!

i was playing on xmp friday and it was ok. i actually saw a new face and he loved it. he talked about bringing in others. and that xmp was waaaaay better than h@lo. only sadly, there was 3 palyers in that map. i dont remember what server it was, but lets not drive those people away guys, ok. i'm ecstatic to play again after a 2 month absense so lets keep it up. lets try to refrain from banning for a while, eh? people make mistakes and have bad days and take it out on games. cheating is not tolerable, though, so yea ban for that. map rotation seemed ok to me.
