Some great games last night. I know we’re trying to populate the server but i’m really liking these smaller games with us all on TS. Was nice to have my mic up and running 8)
Might be an idea to try and balance the teams a bit better as they were pretty stacked at some points last night and theres nothing that puts people off more then stacked teams. I’ve noticed servers running some sort of script that shuffles teams for the next round if the ticket difference gets too high which works pretty well. No idea how hard that sort of stuff is to impliment though.
Yea, but the joy of killing you (and that golden cock wearing Max) more than makes up for loosing! 😀

One thing we could do with btw is a new logo, because as much as we like bugs, we can’t really use it on youtube or facebook.
I’ll put a few things together. I take it we’re not wanting the typical shiny 2d metal kinda thing?
Matt, I asked for 2 weeks solid for the log in and cpanel details for the site. I’m not going to bang my head against a wall. At the time I offered I had a 2 week period of inactivity. You know what I do for a “day job” and I was stunned my offer wasn’t taken up. I actually felt there was mistrust in my ability to implement a fairly simple site.(how hard is it to pm me the user name and passwords?) But ce-la-vie!
As for the subject of the server being empty due to hardcore settings, I don’t know enough about the inner workings of how Battlelog ranks a server, but there are hardcore and mixed mode servers out there that are full most nights, so I think we need to look into how we can improve our server rank.
If I’m contributing both in time and financially I think its only fair for you to explain how XDC makes its decisions. Is it between yourself and Ben? is there a vote system, a discussion etc etc.. I’m really not trying to be antagonistic but If I and others have no influence other than voicing an opinion I’d like to know.

Yea, it’s been on the todo list for some time with the biggest obstacle being a lack of artistic talent. I may just go ahead with a change anyway since certain areas are simply redundant.
I did offer my help a while back 😉
Ok, why don’t we make a start sooner than later? Title our server as running match settings and recruiting, get a well worded post in the Battlelog forums. Get the front page outta there because it’s 3 years out of date.
Matt, if you delegate tasks to people it’ll make things go so much easier. I think we should also get a Facebook page, so the “real” people and potential people involved in XDC can be seen, and any news or online events can be posted quickly.
I like the idea of the youtube thing, and there are players like Max and Ben who can really add some value there.While I’m on my yearly “controversial post”, I’d like to bring up this issue of hardcore v normal. 😈
I was really amazed that this caused so much controversy when we had the debate regarding our server, I think the main problem the “hardcore brigade” (and I include myself) had with the normal mode was FF. There is no reason or need to sub-divide XDC over this issue, but I’d personally like to know on what biases a decision like how the server is set is made? I would guess that if it was a majority rule, the server (which we all contribute financially to) would be on some kind of hardcore settings. I respect the fact that Matt, Stalker and Queeks prefer normal, but I suppose I’d like to know if we’re a democracy or a dictatorship, and that may sting a little to read, and please (Matt) understand I’m saying this with as much tact as I can in the interest of going forward and expanding XDC. If its a case of “my ball my rules” then thats fair enough, but I would like to know up front.
As for playing on our server set to Normal, I’d still rather play on TS with my online mates in this mode and have a laugh, than play some German uber-leet hardcore server on my own, so please read the above with that in mind.

Anyway, why bother writing war and peace? A simple Yea, thats a good idea lets discuss further or Nah, thats a shite idea will do.
Also before you do post, I noticed you echoed many of my sentiments in this post from back in 2009.

I know your keen to get some competitive action going but start two threads on the same topic? 😀 I’ll be on a lot more now I’ve built my new PC and will be expecting to be used as cannon fodder as usual.
Hopefully will get on tonight and will jump in TS too!!
Eh? Have I duplicated this somewhere else. ❓
