PsychoScrum League Season 17: Season Mode

[get some]

[Salmon Sam]

^they dont show up on my ipod at least...

[xKane]

The don't show up for me,either,getsome.

[Baba]

yes they are broken for me too, they were ok earlier, perhaps RX is working on them?

BC's server was unplayable, despite that a couple games were played on it before the reserves and Baba vs Smackys team went to a server The V set up (took down Casa). That one was smooth for all - including many easterners.
Might we consider that for game play?

[Baba]

Amongst all this talk of of sub par servers, are we all real sure we want to introduce Skype to PSL?
It just seems to reason that more things clogging the bandwidth on all 8 players will have a detrimental effect on the game.
Or am I missing something here.
The idea of team talk sounds fine, I know many use it during pick up games.
Thoughts?

Two suggestions from a nobody.
#1 - Ban voice chat!
I didn't use it, as soon as the others started it up my ping doubled.
As far as I'm concerned it ruined a perfectly good server.

#2 - Switch colors every other game.
No matter what anyone says the spawns favor colors on different maps.

I'm willing to host if my server works for people.

Hop in and check it out. Check the playability. I'll covert it to TS this week if you guys prefer. I've been messing with modding so all of the maps on rotation are new (some good, some not so good). I've got all the .ter files in the updates section.

The backup server (which was used as Server #2) had a terrible lag. Everyone played pretty tight given the situ.

[LGM]

Let me know about my server status. If it's not going to work, I'll drop off the hosts list.

Either way is OK with me.

i didnt see much adverse effects of using skype. couple of lag glitches but nothing out of the ordinary.

switching colors has proven pointless over the years in PSL. there may be a perceived difference but the spawns for all psl maps, as i understand it, are equally random. you may find the odds favor one color for one game but it can flip flop just as easily the next game. law of averages there. plus i think its good to keep the second game starting right away to keep the rythm going.
