Another idea :\

Our server currently has long resets on and quite frankly it's boring me. We can't contact the admin to change it.

Anyway it led me to think about something: Could there be an option to have the non-scoring team explode? I was thinking an explosion kind of like the pressure room from ut1, with gibs splattering everywhere.

Or have a kind of mini-game during the reset where it is one hit kills with the hammer, for both teams, but the non-scoring team is disadvantaged by not being able to move.

I just think it would make for a bit of fun, and would obviously be an option so you could turn it off for serious matches.

Edit: or, a kind of mix, where the non-scorers expand like in the pressure room, and the scoring team can "pop" them with their hammers or the ball.

Yeah I remembered a mutator, but a mutator will never be put on servers, a db option will be.

And gibball was nothing like that if I remember correctly (which I probably don't)

yes, it was nothing like that.

gibball was volley only and if you touch the ball u gib. you could also stop the ball with altfire, sort of like chesting it in football (soccer).

I wasn't talking to you Cat. :p
I knew you made it but I had no idea it started out like that.

any plans to fix it? it is much missed by many.

p.s. damn the new smilies suck, they dont even display properly in mozilla.

Sounds a bit like a gimmick to me which, would probably wear off after a few days, as time has shown us in the past =)
