After playing some other games, I noticed that ThinkTanks had a fair amount of room for improvement. So, I took the liberty of launching Stig[MOD]a Servers, a TBM (and, in the future, a second TS) server showcasing improvements to ThinkTanks through scripting designed to make it more fun and convenient to play. Stig[MOD]a runs a 16-map rotation, all of which you'll need the X-Pack for, and sports changes in coding that include a revised scoring system, AI autopilot for bathroom breaks, and realistic bots that not only talk, but talk back at each other.
TL;DR version: I started a server. No idea how often it'll be up, but it has some cool new stuff. The bots are annoyingly talkative.
EDIT: The bots should whine about other people hacking, shout cheesy slogans, etc, considerably less often now, and they'll shut up completely if there are 4 or more people on. Bots spamming up the server... Who'da thunk it?
Update: People have been having problems with the reticles. They're all custom, and can be downloaded as a preload here. Extract the contents of the file to your ThinkTanks root folder- not game, not game/data/shapes, just the root folder (for instance, C:\Program Files\GarageGames or whatever\ThinkTanks).

Re: Announcing the launch of Stig[MOD]a Servers
The reticle issues should be gone now even without the preload, but if they aren't, try leaving and joining again- that seems to fix it.

"Installed" nothing. They were all there before, they just weren't downloading correctly.

DJ great server! The /bot code is a great idea. The bots talking is awesome exept for the spammy repetitiveness of it.

With the X-Pack and preload at the top of the page, not long.

What's the never-stop-downloading bar say?
And yes, there are supposed to only be reticles there.
