I really appreciate the fact that people are stepping up and providing more and more servers, and I'm sure people who live near the new 3 servers are glad too. However, I've noticed a pretty stark problem:

The more servers we get, the less people that either play in the originals, or at all. I don't have the new 3 on my favorites yet, but on a friday night right now elite is empty and funmaps only has 4.

I don't know if the solution is cutting down the amount of servers, or changing them away from being all basic CZ gameplay, but it seems like we're splitting all the players up.

I agree, from what i see we have twice as many servers as we did before and about half the players... that doesnt work out too well.

We need more n00bs. :\ plain and simple.

I don't think we necessarily need more n00bs, i think we need more regulars. We have 300 members, but on a given day no more than 30-40 of them play.

I would play at Wild Wild West without a doubt if more people were there and if I could be admin for that server only, like, super low ranked server-specific admin. Would that be possible at all? I think the new low-ping local servers are great, its just the word needs to get out.

you know i like the idea of a server-specific admin. if it were possible i'd go for it.

i agree

Server-specific admin would be too hard to maintain. It'd be a mess.

I'm willing to play anywhere that there are other people playing (im an admin), do i dont think its necessarily a problem that we are lacking admins...

The true test of the popularity of the new servers will be next month.

foreshadowing of things to come??? or just saying after the hype dies down?

Ocelot,has a point we need more n00bs!

...no...we really dont. lol. its hard enough to tell who is SUPPOSED to be wearing a n00b tag as it is....

holy crap thats the first big word i have seen u say :shock:

i know lots of big words. supercalafragalisticexpialodocious. :)

lol Joe!

Talking about the hype. I don't want to sound like a negative nancy, but we've tried having one new server...and they looked great for a week or two, then they flopped. Introducing 4 new servers at once? Hrm..

yeah,agreed with Gman we played on the deatchmatch server for a week or two and...No one plays anymore!

From what I've seen, even when we just had one extra server (whether it be warcraft or n00b only) we had a problem filling it. With the addition of the recent ones, I think it would be a good idea to not make them all the same CZ format.

There are times when the funmaps server is full, and I would like to throw that out there as a possible idea to change one of ther servers to another devoted to funmaps. Just an idea. :)

Yeah we should do that and have a rotation with it!
