Once again: How are things going on the Twenty Sided Servers?<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

If a moderator is harshing your mellow, this thread is the place to out him. Everyone having fun?<\/p>\n

Just a reminder that you can donate<\/a> to keep the servers running. I’ve pledged to pay for one of them if the fund runs dry. The Team Fortress 2 servers are $30 a month, each. The billing cycle hit about two weeks ago, and we’ve got $13 USD in the hat. That’s amazing, considering I haven’t mentioned<\/em> the server fund (much less linked it) in over a month. You folks are great.<\/p>\n

If you want to nominate some fresh maps, I think we’re due. The Lawful server will stay 100% vanilla stock levels, and will stick to ones that have broad appeal. (Ergo: No 2Fort.) But we can add some controversial or community maps to Chaotic if enough people demand them. Just nominate in the comments. (be sure to specify which server.) If the comments don’t paint a clear picture, I’ll take the nominees and run a poll later in the week.<\/p>\n

Also, Rutskarn (one of our mods) has a post that allows us to view the game through the lens of hilarious, fiery death: A Review in 11 Deaths<\/a>. I appear in one of the deaths. Also, congratulate him on 200 posts<\/a> if you’re a base-ten landmark sort of person.<\/p>\n

Also be sure to read this bit: SPAWN CAMPING FOR FUN AND PROFIT<\/a>. (It’s not actually<\/em> advocating spawn camping.) It’s from bbot, one of the server regulars and (last time I looked) one of the top players on our server. It’s a good bit and has a lot of insight on the game for new0ish players like myself. (It’s a rare game where you can clock 100 hours and still be “new”.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
