Event Suggestion: Server #16

[[DtK] [Jedi] Ham]

Hi I am Ham and I have Idea!

There's been a lot of talk recently about having an Assault Rifle/Pistol only Server for DtK.

There is obviously some Interest, however rather than making a whole new server, a Trial for this Idea could be done on Server #16.

BASIC IDEA:

For a Two - Three Week Period, have Server #16 as Assault Rifle/Pistol only to see if this idea would work or have enough interest. The Up Side to this is that if it takes off, then not only does the Server gain population, but those who wanted an Assault Rifle/Pistol only server get what they want. The Down Side is that if no one plays and the server doesn't really take off, then it's pretty pointless and a waste of time.

As an extra incentive, I am willing to provide whoever is Rank 1 by the end of the Trial Period (if it is done) a $50 Steam Game Prize of their Choice.

Note: as there are currently no [EM]'s to set this up, maybe a Staff member or something could :P.

Cheers for putting this up.

If it takes off or at least proves there's enough interest in it to keep the server decently populated, I'd be happy and I will most likely make it my frequent server, however, if the unfortunate happens, and it doesn't really take off, I'll concede that there's just not that much interest in it and won't bring it up again.

If we end up doing this, would it be okay to post this on the dust2 server section to alert people there of this trial before I do it and piss them off?

Dont post it there. Not dust related.

Fair enough, that's why I asked before doing anything.

Where else would I post to this trial out there in the community if it does happen?

IF it happens, post in the appropriate DtK server page.

I would have thought a Global Advert across all servers in-game would popup, kinda like the server league signup advert..

I'd copy that :^)

Server 17 is the server set aside for trials for new server types, 16 is the fixed maps dm =P

Lmao somehow I knew you were going to say this, but like, if it were to be done on an already set up and existing DM server, then that takes less effort to set up. If it was done on the rotation server, the maps would have to be replaced and then Squall would need to port in the deathmatch stuff, as well as remove all non-assault rifle/pistols. If it's done on #16, most of this is already done.

And a bit off topic; was Team GunGame tested on the Rotation server? :P

Has this gotten any further than discussion stages atm?

Don't think so, if it were to happen, it would probably be in a month or two, or even after the Server League. The idea hasn't been rejected yet so just wait :^).

Yeah I was just wondering if the idea has gotten any further.

I'll keep checking back here and there to see if anything has happened with it.
