Hey there sneaky monkeys biggrin.gif I congratulate you on a fine entertaining chivalry server with active admins.

Could i make a small tiny request?

Please could you not always stack the teams. I mean admin can ask teams to be a bit more balanced yeah? I can understand SM members all wanting to go on same side. But then how do you get any better if you are always stomping and destroying the other team?

I just see quite a bit of TDM play on the server which is supposed to be TO. The paranoid part of me thinks...ohh could it have anything to do with the SM chivalry stats leaderboard? Surely not. Its surely way more entertaining if it is even battle. This is a common complaint - it always happens and low ranked people leave the server sad.gif

Oh yeah and also can you add seaborn to the rotation? (can you vote on a map not on rotation?)

It'a a shame that TB removed "select random" for team selection which I always used, but now I choose by dice before the changes

Just play the game and git gud, how are you supposed to improve if you're fighting people of the same rank? The skillgap in this game is insane and only a few players are determined enough to actually learn more than LMB attacks.
We tend to switch to TDM for some variation in gameplay, it's normal for low-ranks to ragequit because they die at the start and have to wait 2 minutes in order to play again.

I never choose my team based on where my friends/fellow admins are. Except in the case where we are specifically trying to play as a unit, and we are connected to each other on teamspeak or discord. I also believe this is the case for most if not all admins, if not the sorry tongue.gif.

I base my choice on what team MonkeyFiend is on so I can hunt him down and show him what a scrub he is tongue.gif

We should just ban everyone that is better than us, that should balance things out!

Always Agathian. Masons smell and suck. Just like a badger (don't you agree Porsuk ?).

Btw, rank doesn't mean anything. I'm rank 60 and get rekt too.

PS: SeaBorn, what the hell do you all have with this map, it's like playing with 600 ping with a fall damage fest.

I agree, that sometimes the teams aren't very balanced and we could have a better game with more even teams. But it's hard to balance the teams, because:
  • Higher rank doesn't necessarily mean better player
  • Some of the players (good or not so) don't play the objective
  • The maps were meant to be played by maximum of 32 players and when you double that, many of them become easier for one of the teams (most of the times for the defenders)

I think most of the times the teams aren't that unbalanced and the games are fun. When they aren't, the map will end soon and the next one will be better smile.gif

Just as an example, the other night, only you and Sir Banana Joe (sry xD) were brave enough to be mason out of the many 50+ ranks on agatha (around 9 at least). I know high rank doesnt mean better but these are regulars. The regulars you know how they play so its easy to glance at teams and know if they are unbalanced.

So any time i think teams are unbalanced i will be going full brandi feinting etc and yeah it annoys people - why do this? because im again annoyed at how people cannot do simple things and just be decent and balance. These are regulars..its mostly regulars playing all the time. I dont like playing vanguard. I play for style and maa is the coolest cool.gif

Another example - hillside few nights ago (one of my fav maps) and it was over very quickly (1st obj in 2 min) mainly because most of mason either didnt know obj, couldnt be bothered or were just busy dying.

But yeah HackedPenguin ive seen you on and you chose the weaker side quite a lot - thanks for that. smile.gif

Fair enough. I hereby swear to protect the week and poor and always join the shitty team or my name isn't Sir Joe The Brave!

Er, I mean Sir Robin
