1) I'm going to let the 1st place winners pick off the list of 6 games first, then the 2nd place winners, the 3rd place gets whatever is left. 2) A price limit to the Steam games? They're all different prices, not sure what you're asking. 3) The teammate doesn't have to post here, but you can't just sign Caution up as your teammate. Make sure they actually want to be your teammate.

Alright ladies and gents, it's time for the first ever SG Fortnite Tournament. It's pretty simple, two teams of two players get into a lobby together and play a squads match. They will play two games, after the two games the team with the most kills combined from both games is the winner. You can sign up with a partner or sign up as a solo and be given a partner. The bracket will be posted once everyone is signed up and I have a concrete number of participants. RULES: No sabotaging the other team. (ie. boogie bombing them, building in front of them to block their shot, breaking their base to make them fall etc.) I'm allowing you guys to set up the dates you play, but if one person is delaying the match from happening for a long time, you'll most likely be disqualified. (wouldn't want another rocket league tournament) If there are issues getting you guys together due to time-zones or something else, we'll try to work something out. After each set of games, someone from the teams needs to give me a screenshot of the kill counts from both games. (Press escape to see the number of kills) If you don't give me a screenshot you'll have to replay the match/matches. If you think someone broke one of these rules and caused you to lose the match, go to the replays page and download the replay. PM it to me and I'll look at it and determine whether or not they should be disqualified. PRIZES: 1st Place: A forum award, 10,000 store credits and a Steam game 2nd Place: 5,000 store credits and a Steam game 3rd Place: 3,000 store credits and a Steam game Please post on this thread if you want to sign up and clarify whether you are a solo or a duo and if you're a duo post the name of your teammate. (YOUR TEAMMATE MUST ALSO HAVE A FORUM ACCOUNT) The deadline for signing up is June 28th. On June 29th I'll be making the bracket and assigning solo entries a partner. These dates are subject to change depending on the number of entries. Please don't sign up if you're going to go on vacation or something like that and hold up the matches. If anyone would like to play as a substitute in case someone doesn't make it, you can sign up and clarify that.

Congrats everyone!

If everyone has gotten all their anger and stupidity out, it'd be cool to get some actual responses (besides the 1). You can literally suggest anything as long as it's reasonable.

Hola a todos, @DML and I want to start hosting events on JB more often. We don't want things to get too repetitive though. There are a few things that we've done in the past that we'll most likely be doing again, but we'd also like some new ideas. Post any ideas you have and feel free to take inspiration from this thread if you want to. -Señor Muchachos

Sad to see you go, good luck with everything and I hope to see you back soon.

The above in addition to !calladmin and our Discord.

What other servers/games did you have in mind?

Made a thread about this a while ago in the CA section because I do a lot of looking at old posts and it'd be nice to know who was what. The thread never got a response from a higher up. My suggestion was that you get an award for whatever rank you make it to, sort of like the Outstanding Member. SAs would get an award with a green SG symbol, CAs would get one with a yellow SG symbol, etc. to keep track of whatever rank they got to. This wouldn't be as pleasing as knowing the order in which they got their rank(s) and how many times they were that rank, but I was just suggesting what I thought was the most feasible option. If anything like this can be done in any way it'd be really nice to have.

I assume this is for TTT, so I moved it to the Suggestions Box. The store section isn't for server specific item additions, it only has cosmetic things.

Yes, the point of CT lockout is to do that. We want the restriction to be 25 minutes. Also, we want to have the TAs possibly make these for us. The point of this thread is to get your feedback and see if there is anything we should change before asking them to do it. Don't worry about implementation, just give us your thoughts on each plugin/idea. And feel free to suggest any other plugins, preferably ones that may help the server sustain itself as fun type plugins are not a priority at the moment. There could definitely be something we didn't think of.

CT Revamp To start, these are just proposals, they’re nothing concrete and this is to merely flesh it out fully before we decide that it is the best possible direction to take. All of these changes should carry the tone that the server needs to be more self-sustaining which we hope will cascade into other great things. CT Lockout If there are 20 or more players on the server, someone requires 25 minutes of playtime to switch to CT side. When someone tries to join CT without this requirement and is prevented from doing so a message displays itself in chat, if possible a sound playing to catch their attention would be nice as well. The reason for the “If there are 20 players” is to not cause the start of the day population to have issues while still making it so later into the day things can be peaceful when there are more players. Ratio Control When server has 24 or more players ratio is locked 2:3 and cannot go over that. A message in chat when someone is prevented from switching teams is displayed locally with something along the lines of “Sorry, in order to keep the ratio balanced please stay T at this time”. It would also be useful to play a sound, but it’s not entirely necessary. First Order When server has 24 players or more First Order is enabled, all CT’s muted at start of round except the CT who types !fo for the first 30 seconds, after this time the guards are unmuted. Anyone can give orders after this time. During these 30 seconds, other CT orders given through chat are not valid. A simple message in chat that says “Guards are muted for 45 seconds, please listen to %PLAYER% who will give your first order” This will be clarified in the rules thread, in very simple terms. Tips and Adverts We’re gonna look into adding more rules and general tips in the form of chat announcements. This way players can learn even quicker by just playing T side. Please give your feedback on these ideas, they’re meant to help make the server a little bit less hectic and start making the server a little bit more bearable for admins. While some of these look complicated while reading initially, in practice it’s designed so that players don’t really feel them in effect but they’re still preventing issues. This is the first step in bringing a more community feel back to the server. We're really gonna push to improve the server in any way possible. We're going to look into doing some more events very often to hopefully spark some other people's interest in the server. Going to tag @Liam Brown to say that the first 3 at the top are more or less the “ideas” but by the end of the thread and seeing what players think we’ll have a bit more of a clear idea what should be done. The top 3 are a priority to us and what we believe to be an absolute necessity, and hopefully people can help us balance them out in this thread. Big ol' dick suck to @All Ts for sitting down with me for like 2 hours, writing this all out with me and doing a ton of searching and shit. This guy still loves the server as much as any of us. :^) @DML is a real retard

I'll admit my activity has completely fell off, the server didn't seem fun for me anymore most likely because I'd been playing non-stop. The thing is, the admins that frequent PB still frequent PB. The problem is that there isn't a lot of admins who play PB. Bringing in new admins from the server is extremely difficult too. There isn't many people that currently play that I'd be good with supporting for admin. And even after finding people that might make good admins, it's cut in half again because a lot of people won't join up on the forums to apply. Our server has no plugins that reduce the work for the admins because there aren't many public plugins let alone ones that actually help us. It would take ages for the TAs to make each plugin for us. Stuff like an automatic ratio fixer or a minimum play-time requirement before joining CT would most likely reduce the admin work a ton and encourage admins to play more. Reducing the requirements to apply for admin is the only thing that I think will make more people from PB apply, not necessarily the best option, but I think it'd show some pretty immediate results. I'll try my best to get back into playing PB, I want to line up some events to do every week or so and hopefully bring some life back into the server. The rank is doing well, but the community isn't so much.

If you get admin, you can play whatever server you want - I don't touch a single other server besides that. Having admins restricted to PB only wouldn't help all that much. And honestly even if we made PB specific admins that people could apply for, no worthy candidates really come to mind. No system of calladmin will improve the response time, admins simply don't check it. There are other forms of calling in an admin, adding some is a good idea.

looks like i didnt make it :^(

see you in a day

I don't think it'd hurt to do it, but I think the amount of people that regularly stream at SG has gone down a lot. Can't really think of more than 2-3.

Refer to the link Brian posted.

no

Nope.

Gonna reject this since nothing negative was said about the map. I was just on it and people seemed to enjoy it. Try encouraging people to play it more so you can get a better read on how the server does when it's being played/if it has any actual problems.

Rejected.

^ Unfortunately too many problems with turning off player collision even though it'd do a few good things.
