I don't get it.

Isnt that kind of the point? The player who is better wins. Not the player who happens to shoot randomly into the massive cluster I feel like while deathmatch may be more popular and fill the server up. The other two modes are more likey to keep a steady player base of those who want a competetive environment. Ultimately I feel this is what contributes to the server drying up each year. People flood in for the novelty but get bored of it and move on. P.S. sorry about the double post.

I see what you mean. I can see why you dont want to do that. But if you are afraid that lesser skilled players will not be gettings kills well just the fact that they are behind the leader gives them that opportunity. If you are behind and have an AK while the leaders are on pistols you already are given a chance to clean up. So yes, it is more likely that you will win randomly with a deathmatch but it doesnt mean you wont get any kills in with round based. Isnt there a mode where you respawn if the guy who killed you is killed? I seem to remember that being quite alot of fun too. Annother suggestion. Some servers give you a glock on the nade round to help with getting a kill. Its not much of an issue when there are 3 or less people or when there are a bunch of people in the server but it seems like most matches about half the team gets stuck up on the nade round. Anyway, thanks for putting up the server, I have been loving it

If it is changed to round based this issue would completely go away.

Yeah the santa skins are much larger than the hit boxes. the reg is fine its just that you might be shooting air. Love GG and I will be playing it way too much like I did the last two years. I only wish it wasnt deathmatch.

The more people who can vouch for your character the better.

wooot!!!!

if this happens can we make sure it is round based this time. it was two years ago.

thats one seriously good looking dog

I agree with matt

oh will you now. bring it.

YES YES YES. but make sure this doesn't happen until after my exams because I will fail them.

Looks fun. Always nice to see a new excuse to sink time into gmod.

So I am sure a number of you have been following the game Star Citizen. Well shorty we will be able to create groups for use in game. I was wondering who is interested in forming an SG Star Citizen "organization". I would love to see us get an active group going. Post here if you have interest.

I posted mine in the first 3DS friend code thread but apparently that was a 2012 thread. so 2707-1597-5682

CETMEs are cool

We had a former officer in the Ukrainian army visit us one time. He was going to show off that he could field strip an AK with a blindfold on but he was unable to do it with an Arsenal because the parts are fitted so well. He said it was the first time he ever saw one made properly.

The Arsenals really are the best made AKs. Nice to see they brought the milled receiver double stack mags back. After the SLR 95 they got rid of those for over a decade.

I feel like if you just go up to someone with dark skin an say "happy kwanza" you are just racial stereotyping and there is a very good chance you will offend them. But anyway, I don't feel offended by someone wishing me a happy anything. Just because I don't share their beliefs doesn't mean I don't appreciate that they want to include me in their best wishes. I would feel flattered if someone wanted to include me in their traditions.

Well that makes a lot of sense really, it keeps the random MG trolls out, brings to light the community's opinion of someone before giving them admin, and puts to death the notion that that admin process is corrupt.

1. I second a shift into CSGO over time. 2. COD 4 as long as a moded hardcore S&D is one of them 3. Killing Floor as we already have a number of people in the community who play it. 4. Red Orchestra 2 because it has an extremely hardcore PC player base and large active community. Its the kind of place where people keep coming back to the same server if they like it. In the end we would need a server where a community will naturally form around it. The games that form communities are ones where players tend to frequent the same servers and the regular players begin to know each other. Some games seem to lend themselves to this better than others. The main problem is that to stick this requires a dedicated group of people to keep the server alive for a while. You need to be friendly, fun, and welcome the new comers. Make sure they are likely to come back. It seems to me that this is where previous servers have failed. To work you need to have a group of people from SG make the new game "their game" and be extremely active on it consistently. Otherwise there will never be a recognizable group of people playing and people are less likely to keep coming back. Its the people playing on the server that bring players back time and time again, not the server its self. Now, I am only speaking from my own experience but I believe I have hit the nail on the head. I became involved in SG after playing the PB server with the same group of people until I began to know them. When I was hosting a MOHAAS server, the server never had any traffic untill I spent a week playing nothing but that and actively engaged in conversation with the new players. Eventually enough of those players were coming back that the server staying populated on its own. If I could get a new server to stay popluated in a game that has only 200 servers left and a player base that has been shrinking since 2004 then im sure SG could easily pull this off if members of the community, even if just a few friendly faces, made sure to stay on the servers and make any newcomers feel welcome.
