Its very easy to see, "that T has a weapon, I should stay away if I dont want to be in a firefight"

jb_clouds. It has it's own feel. And charging at CTs, and watching them back pedal right off the edge is the best.

Does donating actually increase signature size?

The signature system only allows you to have three lines and it takes wrapping into consideration. Yet, I see people with multiple quotes and text and pictures. What gives?

Congrats

Problem The amount of freekillers and new players intentionally and unintentionally abusing the power of CTs in JailBreak. Solution Players are restricted to the Terrorist team until a condition is met. This condition needs to be something that is not a hassle to do. The conditions I am proposing is either: Have one (1) hour on the PB server (or just on [sG] servers in general), or typing !rules/!faq. Logic Having a minor requirement to play CT allows new players to have experience with the gamemode, and be able to understand proper orders and the flow of the game. This minor requirement will also deter trolls that want to get in, cause rage as fast as possible, and leave. I understand this idea has been presented before, but the other conditions to "unlock" CT eligibility were strenuous or out of the way. Under either of these conditions, players either learn by experiencing the game, or by reading the rules and seeing the admin input. Both of these learning styles are used in schools to improve comprehension and retention, those styles being hands on learning and learning from material, respectively.

This single sentence just made me a happy camper. I may still update this thread with other "grey" areas as far as KOS zones.

This was more of a breaking the map sort of thing. I was wondering if the boost counts as an exploit.

Halo, show me a video of you jumping off the diving board and landing inside the box, without touching the KOS catwalk that I mentioned.

There are several maps with ladders that lead to highly KOS areas of the map. On Razor, we have a ladder to catwalk that leads directly to armory. On Renegade, a ladder goes to a patio, which pushing a button, opens armory. I will be taking some screen shots from different maps and uploading them here to allow for discussion to be had about the Warning Shot ability of each individual ladder. I will also be posting spots where stairs are, also to discuss KOS/Warning Shot rules. First upon the list is the well played jb_vipinthemix, with three questionable areas. The first two are similar to each other, those being the stairways to main armory catwalk. jb_lego_jail: The blocks that lead to armory. They aren't a catwalk, or stairs to a catwalk, but might as well be. I suggest they become an automatic warning shot zone to be on top of them. This map features rooms that can be accessed by shooting a button. Now if a T draws and shoots said button, wouldn't that make them KOS? Are all of these areas "CT only" because you need a gun to open it? Here's a prime example: Disco has the same idea going on: The Simon Says pit has acted like the Big Cage for this map many times. It has this lip that is indented all the way around, allowing Ts to claim they are in pit. Do Ts need to have their head in the pit, or are just the feet fine, and what about the ramps? Lastly, I was able to boost in soccer to the platform symmetrical to Tic-Tac-Toe. Is this an exploit? The mapper obviously never intended anyone to get here, but it has textures on top. jb_razor: main cell/big cage has this ladder here: Also, is this box considered a CT only area? The only ways to this area, is the door with a button only on the inside, a CT only catwalk, a secret wall, and a secret teleport. So basically, if you are in this area, you took a KOS route, meaning to exist in here is punishable by death. Also, if the area inside the walls is KOS, then is the ramp there KOS too? jb_clouds: Only one KOS/WS (warning shot) grey area, and that is the area around CT tower after portal. Where do you warning shot here? Is any of these KOS? jb_renegade: This ladder seems like it would be a warning shot area, because it leads to a catwalk, and is 4 seconds away from armory. These blocks lead to another catwalk right into armory, a nearly same situation with the aforementioned ladder. More questions will be added later as I go through them all!!!

I decided to download the map and look at it. I made a video with my discoveries and thoughts about the map. If you want my short opinion, the map's layout is T sided and painful for CT players. The map is weirdly stretched, as in too long in one direction, not really a square (similar to jb_undertale, it takes a long time to get from place to place. Armory is too accessible, no prisoner accessible medic. 5/10

God Dammit, I've been memed.

Also requires "stripper"???

Taken from the readme.txt "You must have stripper on your server to run this map." Wtf is stripper???

I've heard many things about this, and the response I get the most is that the server host is "testing the limits" or "doesn't care". Perhaps [sG] could consider an alternate host?

both of you are fucking killing me. XD

Accepted, Wawa permission?

Looking for Sub, work decided that they need me tomorrow, gg folks.

*shameless bump*

This event is being split up into two days, right? 31 games, 10-20 rounds per game, suppose 15 seconds a round, 5 minute connection/setup time per game... 232-310 minutes for the whole tournament. 4-5 hours. Starting at 5pm EDT, which is right before dinnertime for most people... Am I the only one a little concerned? Also at 10pm UK? 3am finish time?

I just feel like these are things that shouldn't need to be said, similar to how the Olofpass was. It's an unfair ace in the sleeve that ensures one side will win. The game is rigged.

I could add a little more background to this story. Immediately after rocket tossing pistol, the T proceeded to pick another pistol and shoot at a CT.

First post swag

T survives to the end of the round, is granted an LR. The LR chosen is Gun Toss. T says CT goes first, and does. The T goes second, and knifes the gun out of the air. CT kills T for cheating the LR. Who is the right party here? Is "rocket tossing" allowed? I believe Rocket Toss and Gun Toss should be two different Deathgames. However thats not the question, post clarification below.

Actually, Smogg was in the process of making the map and simply let players and servers use it while he finalized it.
