proposal

Post by [JiF] Staticline »

I know that I have not been here for a long time......
but I have a proposal.
I love the custom map mondays, and will continue to play as often as I can.
My proposal is possible "theme nights" like Whatever night fits "war for the pacific" and "scorching african campaign" and "all roads lead to berlin" (European maps) etc.
I am just throwing this out to the JiF higher ups and I have no idea if this would interest anyone else.
This is just my two cents

I like the idea of this,
but it can get tedious playing the same maps, over and over, like if we had a African theatre night there are only 4/5 maps to play...

Good Idea!

Only problem, can Mike make the rotation change week to week or twice a week? :roll:

Looks like he fixed the current rotation issues.

A few names
Fuerher Fridays
Italian Tuesdays
Whatever Wednesdays
Russian Thursdays
Secret Weapons Saturdays
Canadian afternoons :lol: :lol:

It's an interesting idea for sure, but to be honest I think that makes things more complicated than I want to deal with.

However an idea that's bounced around between a few us in the recent past is letting any interested JiF member come up with a map rotation that we give a try. This rotation would probably need to consist of normal maps (no customs) but could throw some flavor into the server on occasion. The name of the server could even change to reflect who's rotation is currently being used. It's along the same idea, but I think there would be more maps to play and it might be interesting to see what people come up with.

Sounds like a good idea to me. I especially like Mike's idea. I'd like to come up with a rotation for the server, but I'm not a JiFFer...yet. :wink:
I'd also like to see the server get the Wake CTF mod that gives each side PT boats. Wake CTF is great with PT boats. There could be some problems doing specific theatres each day, the most significant being that we would be playing the same maps over and over. Maybe do it by style of games...plane maps one night, tanks another, naval, mainly infantry, CTF...stuff like that might work.

uhmm...no...keep the game pure...9/10 servers are modded anyway...

Besides there is already wake ctf 24/7 with that mod. and it always has players.

A good idea, but it seems Mike has got the rotations working well (with 3 different variations).
Let's not complicate it even more :lol:
