oooooo i like harrington :)

[Cain]

I already have Harrington, and from reading the Valve stats it is far and away the top played custom map, so let's try it this weekend...

:2thumbs:

I'll post a link here so you can download it, or you can just let the redirect server push it to you when you join. We will test that tomorrow morning sometime if anyone wants to help me...

the thing is that customs are a complicated situation. I love customs personally, but they only do well if you have a good relationship with the "pubbers" if i was i betting man (in which i am:) i would say that customs on our server right now would average a 10-12 people players base per map. with non customs averaging 15-20 as of right now.

Jeffro, like I said I lie the way you think....

I'm gonna try a spicy mix of standard maps tonight, and see how it goes...

Cain, if you want to, add me to your messenger (msn perferably) and i can try to help you with custom stuff. Jeffro knows me from RoughRiders Clan (myself and 4 others started that clan years ago), anyway, we had a custom map league so we might can help you with that stuff. Also, we will be ready to test some maps soon, you think we can use your server to run test on a couple of maps, thanks man.

Hi kontrol,

1) Welcome to Cain's Lair !!

2) I was just in Muscle Shoals a couple of weeks back. My Company has an office in Florence and I flew into the Muscle Shoals International Airport !! :D

3) Absolutely, and better yet I can pop up another server where a group of us can check the maps out. Just let me know.

Take care,

We had 2 versions of rail road going last night. One was fun, the other kinda sucked.

I didn't note down the actual names, but the one we were running a few days ago was very much like the old 1.3 one.
The new one I saw last night had a weird setup and you couldn't open the doors.

Wow, am I making any sense?

[Cain]

Yep, but it was not rails...

Palermo is a base map we were running it last night and it did GREAT lots of peeps wanting to play it ....

the other is railyard and it is fantastic we will try it tonight in the moan rotation.

if you get a custom map server going, we will help you find good custom maps to play on their
