Post Delay Round After Spawn?
This was brought up on the server today about putting in a 1sec delay at the beginning of each round so that people don't intentionally kill people. I've gotten used to it and find it funny when it happens, but it might be something to think about.

This is EXACTLY what I said in a different topic.


I support this. 1 sec is long enough to click in your head that you've switched but fast enough not to slow the momentum or spirit of the game.




It's not very fun to wait a whole round cuz you accidentally shot your buddy in the head.

Then take more time at the end of the previous round to avoid shooting your buddy in the head.

There have been several threads about this, but it is a part of our server -- just like alltalk. I do not think it will be changed anytime soon.

Here's the answer:

Don't be a F*CKING retard. You know that right after our warmup is live play. So just pay attention and don't try to shoot a bunch of people at the last second.

Problem solved, stop crying.

lol don't shoot the messenger, like i said I could care less either way since it literally took me 1 round of dying because i shot someone by accident to figure out to stop shooting at 1 second in warmup mode and not shoot at all at the end of the round.

Honestly I'm for a delay, but not for the team kills issue. I think a delay would benefit the flow of the game in terms of the buy menu and the people that block the spawn. You can say "don't be retarded" and all that, but the fact of the matter is that some people will be retards, and there will be people unfamiliar with the game that join the server. For those of us that are regulars here, that really slows the momentum of the game.

Just my two cents, which you don't care about, but F*CK you I said it anyway. :)

The argument against this whole timer phenomenon has been, and still is, that the reason why there is no timer is BECAUSE there are so many slow-pokes and that it encourages them to speed up or otherwise allow an advantage to people who are faster at buying.

But it doesn't encourage them. They don't change a thing, and those of us that are quick to get out of spawn get stuck behind retards. I believe it's worth a try.

I'm all in favor of a 3 second timer, but unless like 80% of the community says so, it's only happening if the Elders/Council decide upon it.

THERE IS A TIMER DURING WARMUP ROUND RIGHT? SO F*CKING LOOK AT THAT UNTIL IT COMES DOWN TO 2 SECONDS AND THEN STOP F*CKING SHOOTING!!!!!! ITS SIMPLE. You don't need to be a try hard during warmup round.
