Server full at 64

**caffeine** · 03-15-2008, 08:50 PM

Hey everyone.

I've noticed the server is filling up to 64 a lot lately. What's an SM to do in that situation? Should one find an admin to kick someone? I usually just wait until 63 and jump on it.

It's not a big deal to me really. But, I am sure I'm not the only one this happens to so I figured I'd type this up for everyone (while I wait :P)

Wont it just kick someone? Cause reguardless of server numbers, we have a reserved slot no?

I have to concrete knowedge of why this happens, but...

If it goes to 64 my theory is probably there are either 64 SM in the game or, 2 members just joined and you are seeing the number 64 before the 2 kicks register.. Ive only had one occasion where I had to wait for any amount of time to join..

I also noticed to today that there were 33 players on the USMC team on EJOD and only 30 on the MEC team.

Nope. If the server is full, the game simply tells me it's full and won't let me join. So my request to join never actually reaches the server.

In my experience, I have had to wait about 5 mins average.
When I got in tonight, the server was extremely laggy for a while. Don't know if it's related.

For some reason the supporting member kick script is getting backed up due to the sheer volume of players trying to get into our server. It gets filled up to 64 and won't start working again until two slots open for a certain period of time, which as you know doesn't happen all that much during the prime hours. The admins have been kicking non-supporting members randomly, but the problem will still happen when the server gets really busy.

So if I really get the itch to play and it's full, could I ask an admin to kick someone? Or would that be too annoying?
