Do it.

Participantcurrently have 5 maps set up (which ones TBA at grand opening)
but yeah, i will have map voting pop up, so if you all wont to play the same map over and over its an option now, until we get more popular.. still things arnt set in stone, so keep the suggestions coming.
And just for an update, the servers been wiped clean and have started from scratch on a fresh install.
Also the ip/port have been changed with this fresh server.
and thanks everyone for helping out where you can, its much needed.
in the work for this week is getting SourceMod setup with admin and configure respawn times “per map” and “per team” and yes they are going to be between instant and 5 seconds timers for the fast gameplay everyones asking for

and yes, building up Hype for the Grand Opening party,,, is it working

ParticipantDo we need to apply for tf2 admin or if we have css admin do we get tf2 as well?

ParticipantGenerally in TF2 24/7 servers are full and rotation servers are not. I’m just sayin…

Participantyup thats the trend indeed. I would even say 90% of all popular tf2 servers are 24/7,, however i only have 1 server
maybe down the line WCU can do a second 24/7 TF2 server along with one with a small rotation
but yeah, i dont think a 24/7 server is going to bring in community b/c they will get board of playing one map over and over and just hop around to another server. Im going for a dedicated community which may be smaller,, but still better than a 24/7 server that wont bring as many to this website. once their is a small base we can start expanding

I call it the dust2 principle. Everyone love dust2 so everyone looks for a server with dust2 on it. Yes they leave when they get bored but because EVERYONE loves dust2, people continue to come and continue to play and the fact that they will leave doesnt matter. Same in tf2 w/ 2fort
Once we get a reputation as a full server we will have regulars can a community will start.
or i am just really naive

Participanti agree with your though process 99.9%
Im basing this uber short rotation off the top steam official maps and keeping it to no more than 5 in the list. Just like in cs 1.6 and css, when ppl have a chance to vote, they will vote for d2, same thing here.. its just allowing people to move on if they get board. I may resort to a 24/7 server if this does not hold true, everything still in the works. Really should make most happy

ParticipantI’m not a fan of fast respawning unless its like an arena map maybe. I just think it makes it makes it boring and unbalanced.

I just think it makes it makes it boring and unbalanced.ever play on a server with less than 10 people and had to wait 8-10 seconds? long spwn times are just fine for 25-32 people servers but in the past everyone asks for fast. its really a tweak thing, lets just see how it goes,, once its running i’ll need feedback, but most people are asking for fast spwn times and i agree fast times for a small community/server population shoud be best to start with,, but maybe not,, still open to anything and everythang
