    Whenever I'm on the server and I go scout. You'll see the shortstops going away in no-time. Especially on a half - 3/4 full server. If they stay scout, they always change to scatter or fan.

    But, ofc, the consumers are kings (or queens since we've got a few women). So if the horde says BAN! then we should do it. However. I'd wait for a while though. See how the weapon evolves. give it some time. Most of the engy madness on the normal servers have calmed down already too.

    I think i managed to ban the natashja and sandvich.
    At least a plugin is intstalled which is new. I was heavy yesterday, and shooting half the team with the natashja is pretty easy.. and then the medic heals me and i throw him a sandvich :)P

    For the shortstop issue.

    I don't know, i still think is a really powerful weapons (obv in the right hands) and the fact that it shoots so fast is really annoying.
    Anyway, i can take more time to test it properly and think about locking it or not.
    Yesterday i played a low 6v6 as a merc for some friends of mine and I killed the whole team alone (2 sollys, a medic, a socut, an heavy and the demo XD) i think mostly for the quickness (and yeah for the aim XD) i've never been able to do such a thing with the scattergun lol.

    For the class limit i think this should be ok :


    With 10 players on the server : 2 scouts, 2 sollys, 1 demo, 2 snipers, 2 spies,1 heavy,1 medic,2 pyro
    With 20 players or more : 3 scouts, 3 sollys, 2 demo, 2 snipers, 2 spies,2 heavy, 2 medics, 3 pyro.

    Arghlz..

    i made a 3 point config here..

    i have a 1to7.cfg
    a 8to15.cfg
    and a 16to24.cfg

    the first doens't allow for medics/heavy's, second for 1, and 3rth for 2..

    that was your initial request. I can change it again, but i want you to be pretty sure. I have enought other things to work out for the serrvers :) (including arena)

    I don't know about the other servers, but the Arena one has indeed a lot of lag spikes :| and excessive whining :D

    Played on the arena server today, and experiecned heavy lag spikes. This is kinda strange, since I never had lag on the other servers.

    Had this several times as well. Just start recording a demo, this should fix it.

    added gScramble to the arena server and alterd the config to better go with the arena setup

    and added RTV and nomination option ;) end of map vote is disabled for now (just need to alter the config seeing it's plugin is needed for RTV to work haha)

    so the chattriggers are

    !scramble (30% needed to trigger a scramble on the next round)
    rtv OR rockthevote (30% needed to start a mapvote wich changes the map on vote end)
    nominate (nominates a map for RTV -> opens a menu)
    nextmap (shows the next map)
    thetime (shows server time)
    timeleft (shows time left for the map)

    Arena_sawmill in the normal mapcycle (after the last map in the mapcycle)

    Arena_oasis final ( http://www.mediafire.com/?pp24fk0hetzxoq4)
    Arena_Draft ( http://www.fpsbanana.com/mirrors/startd ... 88&ext=zip)
    Arena_lighthouse (http://www.map-factory.org/download/tea ... e-1186.zip)
    Arena_harvest final ( http://www.filefront.com/thankyou.php?f=14742409)


    In the afternoon i'll try some other maps with a friend, but for the moment this should be ok.
