    Exclamation Trial Vanilla-only night this friday (7/28)

    Okay, you asked for it, so here is a trial vanilla only night. This will not necessarily be the permanent night. Some information:

    Just "show up"! You asked for it, and here it comes. You have advanced notice so unless you are out of town, be there.

    Some things we will be looking for:
    • Be on your best behavior. We may very well draw in some new people so let's leave the jihad jeeps, 30 yard knife rushes, and excessive AT missile sniping at the door.
    • 2 commanders for EVERY round. I cannot stress this one enough, especially if we are going to have a full server. If your team doesn't have one, step up to the chair. Let's make these good rounds, like the old password nights we used to have 8 months ago (yes, it has been that long).
    • If we are getting new people on the server, open up a spot or two in your in-house squad to show them what TG is all about. Let's not treat this as an in-house squad against in-house squad night.
    • Self control and good judgement. If you are on a team that blows out the other team by 200 or 300 points and you're the top squad, take your whole squad and switch teams. Admins can help you out with this. Also, if you're racking up 150-200 points in an attack helo during a blowout, you're probably not helping out the enjoyment of the night. Share the toys with other people and broaden your horizons a bit.

    Some things we will be doing:
    • Running maps that don't get a lot of play time. This will not be the "Sharqi/Karkand/Mashtuur/Daqing" night.
    • Balancing the maps out. There will be no bombers as people tend to get out of control with them. Depending on the map, there may be no attack helos.

    Let's make this a successful night. Let's shoot to have a decent population (at least 40) by 8pm EST, and it would be nice if people started joining around 7pm EST. By 8:30pm EST it would be nice to be in full swing and to have the SM kick working.

    Cool, I agree playing the other maps as well, but do keep all the maps balanced, or you'll end up playing all the "lesser" maps.
    Should be able to make it

    I'll expand on this and say anyone new you see on the servers at anytime, take the extra effort to point them to the website and welcome them to the TG server.

    By 9EST you should be entering at full tilt...people think that this is going to give us a full server, so now is the chance to prove yourselves right

    AND, by playing the less played maps, it'll be like playing new content

    I vote we keep bombers in as long as they're manned by people we know aren't going to whore them out. Having a capable 2 man team in a bomber is awesome for your CO since you can actually call in "real" airstrikes (instead of the rather weak fighter bombs, which should be focused on shooting down air targets anyway).

    All you really need is that the bomber pilot on each side understands that he needs to slow his play down and let some targets live. That's what I do when I fly a bomber and even if the gunner doesn't agree he doesn't really have a choice because he isn't controlling the plane .

    If it gets out of hand you can always remove them. This is only for maps with 2 bombers btw, for maps like Oman I agree on removing the bomber.
