In an effort to improve on ongoing lag issues the Ping Kicker has been lowered from 300 to 225.

Any questions or comments please let us know here.

Yeah.. i imagine we will be giving out exemtions like halloween candy...

Things i look for for an exemption.. is that does the person like to come play with us alot.. and also is his usual ping not too far above the usual. A european player should be not really any higher than 275 to 325.. Higher than that and there are technical issues other than being overseas  that will only hurt the server if we exempt it.

Has the lower limit helped lag issues at all or is the server still sucking air most of the time? I am just looking to help things somewhat over the entire cycle. I dont think we will be able to do much with maps like warpath and avanti unless Kusa by some chance can optimize these for our larger crowd sizes?

Making the rocket a special weapon only spawning in two places (one for each team) would seriously cut down on rocket spam (make it so no one starts with them).

Also move all wacky balls to the center spawns only would cut back on wacky ball madness and would also reduce lag.

Knocking the ping kicker down seemed to help.  The lag has not been as bad.

sounds good.. can someone point Kusa in this direction when he comes around and see what he thinks since these are his maps.

I'm rebuilding brush works and some tweaks for Warpath. But don't think anytime soon or improves greatly.

As for weapon placement, there has been alot of discussing with GU members (especially Blueberry), so I don't really want to change it.
