So - how did you all like the Penguin Party?

I have to admit that I didn't get to play as much as I would have liked.  The in-laws are visiting.  I did find the suicide bomber very entertaining.    And invisibility was a lot of fun.

Other opinions?

I am glad that you guys liked it for the most part.  I did have fun playing with all of the pDs guys again and seeing some of the old regulars come back to us finally.  I think minus the friendly fire and the already mentioned bugs, it was fantastic.  I do need help coming up with some more prizes other than health giveaways.  I will see about reserve slots once we pack the server to the point where its full most of the night, but if any of you have any more ideas for prizes let me, Nite, or WDF know.

Someone suggested that we change a gameplay aspect every week, like have instagib magnum the next week and regular xbows, then maybe the week after that change another gameplay aspect.  I don't think that we could keep up with this idea every week, and there really isn't that much to change each time to be that much different.

Another criticism I got from a guest was that they played the map the whole time, rolled whenever they had a chance, and only got one good thing the entire time.  I guess some people just don't have that good of luck with that thing. 

I had fun, and I think if we played maps like bedroom warfare (suitable for a large crowd and a map people tend to enjoy playing) next week, we will be able to sustain the crowd longer.

One thing that suprised me was the lack of morons.  I expected to be banning people for porn sprays and such, but we had a suprisingly well behaved crowd.  Anyway, that's all I have to share.  Thanks for coming ;)

Yes, this is one thing I noticed too.  Some people thought it wasn't working because they never could have a chance to type it. 

Nite, is there a way that we can prevent a person from doing diceroll twice in a row?  Like, could we make it so that you have to wait until someone else says "diceroll" before you can do it again?

The suicide thing was pretty fun.  However, it was limited to three uses per game.  No reason why it should be limited.  Between that and diceroll not being available it was just regular play.

A word on 2fort:

I remember about two years ago the Hax server had a mod with classes.  One of them was bomber.  I could stop any advance into our base on 2fort in that class.  People bitched about it so they nerfed it.  Then I figured out you could hold down the fire button and if you were killed, you would still blow up.  People bitched about that so they fixed it.  Then they removed the class altogether.

SMG nades - on the old Tomb you could restock on the left side of 2fort.  Then I would get "Ooh, SMG nades take no skill, wah."  So both Hax and the Tomb limited their use, and they got nerfed.  Now they don't even exist on the left side of 2fort in the current Crypt and they're hella slow to regenerate on the right side.

The regular nades on 2fort used to explode with a big bang.  You could suicide by holding a live one in your grav gun and take out a bunch of people.  Some folks I guess complained because you can't even hold the nade to someone's head and kill them.  You die, but they don't even get a scratch.  Bunch of nerf herders, all of ya.

All I have to say is boo to that.

Oh yeah, Friday was pretty fun.
