just wondering if its an admins job to balance teams? seems reasonable to keep the game from getting rediculously one sided…. people started complaining, liam was asked to change the map, i understand it cant be changed if the server is more than half full… thats fine, but when i asked him to “come ct or balance the teams or something” he muted me…. he muted me twice and i never said a bad word or anything, just simply asked to balance teams. he even changed his name to “leave me alone” because people were complaining to him instead of doing something about it.
now it seems to me that an admin should keep the server happy… either by changing the map, or at least evening the teams when the server is over half full. or get the team balancer to balance the teams… i know it seems that when it is working, people *edited*, and when its not working people *edited* too… but when it works at least its only 2 or 3 that are getting switched doing the *edited*ing and not a whole team.
another alternative is just switch the teams halfway through the map. make everyone thats a T go CT and visa versa. but thats a little outrageous dont you think?
what do you think?
by the way the score was T=8 CT=0, and respectfully zoso and renton switched themselves later. props for that guys…
First of all, I muted you for being a rude and pushy. You complained about the team balancer, I said I would take a look at it. Then you continued complaining about it and not a single word you said was in any way constructive, you were simply whining to whine and I asked you to stop, you continued and so I muted you.
Then I unmuted you 5 minutes later, and you started telling me to balance the teams since my team balancer obviously wasn’t. Being as we were on Italy, 3/4’s of the CT’s were camping instead of rushing, I saw no reason nor justification to switch the teams around. I know that the majority of the terrorist wins that occurred on that map happened because the T’s went out and hunted down the camping CT’s.
As for changing the map, first off, I’m not changing the map when the server is full. It was at 12v12 at one point. Secondly, Italy was voted on, and third, I did a “Is this map nice to play on” twice, it came back a tie once and a solid win the second time, so sorry.
So, I’ll restate what I told you last night. I did a lot of work on the team balancer yesterday to correct a problem and I may have a bug I missed when I wrote the code. I’ll take a look at it and we’ll try it again.
Have fun.
