Title: SG ONLY MAPS
Post by: Stealer on July 28, 2022, 19:26
Hi all,
A few of us from the Titan days (mainly me and Kops) used to do sg only matches (mainly when I was too drunk to aim).
If you'd like to participate, providing I can borrow an admin for an hour to play a couple of maps (would be some saturday evening), please vote Yes.
Thinking we could use server 2 to avoid any frustrations in server 1?

**.Everyone who plays must only use shield gun to hit other players for the entire map. **

It used to be quite funny with high player counts on small maps - large maps are just tedious, in my opinion.

I only request an admin as having someone not adhere to the rule, needs kicking or placed on spec.

Any input or comments gladly assimilated :D 8)

Lol cool

I think it would be nice to have some map just for shield gun fights, it would be nice after some tiring games xD

Aye, it's just for a bit of fun, it's kind of hard to take seriously when giggling profusely. Pretty sure I can organise it with an admin present; think the last one I organised was a freon team tournament, although it was a bit unfair my team was stupidly stacked, but I think everyone had fun, except for Trebor  :))

Goop only maps too?

Lol, I won't play that if Blub is playing goop only maps. I still have nightmares about his 20 goop frags on me during a game on koden (you were right it was koden blub, I was mistaken; from one of our online banters).

That's quite an intriguing idea there Piglet. Maybe separately that could work, don't think a goop and sg only would work, goop would beat an sg unless you're too close then it would be suicide with a possible frag. I'm game although I'll just wait and see if we can get enough players interested in this post, or just badger everyone playing to do a spontaneous sg only or goop only match.

Maybe it would make sense to have shorter matches as in less rounds since sg or goop only matches might get a bit dull after too many rounds. Quicker skrimishes, maybe on server #3 for the ppr aware could be a solution for this possible issue.

iirc, the SG messarounds were played TAM, not freon which might make more sense and shorten the rounds a little.

I don't see the training map lasting long regardless of player count :)

Don't think we can get enough players tonight, I'll be about on the servers for a while anyways :)
