Because i want to play with the general community, not seclude myself with PCS Proven. ok, granted, it is fun to play against like minded strategists that offer a real challenge, but I still love server 1 the most because that's where the action is.
I am up for organizing a server 2 night. I'll lead the way with a post.

I think the problem may reside with the numbers. I'd have NO problem going to server two if I had seen that it was populated with 15/16. That's why server one is so successful. I'd love to get some PCS'in done on server two if we could get that number. It's not as fun or challenging to play 4/16 while server one remains full.

Not to make my post completely off-topic, I enjoy Havana. It's a good map.

That depends on if you want quantity or quality. You can usually find the former on server 1, but you can only guarantee the latter on server 2.

When I see 6, 7, 8 or even more PCS Proven players on server 1, it certainly seems to make sense to move the action to server 2.

yes, a 4 ON 4 is the minimum I would consider switching from a full server 1 to server 2.

Hey, if you get Apophis to make a nice shiny modular PCS sig, I'll use that one.

Root

Well if Xink didn't make excuses like "I'm really busy" we'd have one.

That's true, but I feel there are great PCS players who just haven't been proven yet. Maybe we need to look into adding more names to the list? I want quality over quantity, but in all fairness, we should be able to have both with the number of players we have.

I'm not going to agree or disagree with that in a public forum. This is absolutely not the place to discuss who should be added to the PCS Proven group.

What I will say is this. ALL PCS Proven players received the same PM's from me, regarding them receiving PCS Proven status, and regarding the private forum I've provided them. Further, my initial PCS Proven announcement is available for all PCS Proven players to read. Use the information at your disposal, and then act on it in an appropriate manner. The admin team is not the reason why there aren't more PCS Proven players.

Please steer the conversation in this thread away from this topic.

So, your saying the spot is off limits b/c its not tactically sound?

I was more interested i knowing if it is against the rules or not. Whether or not its tactically sound, I've seen it work remarkably well.

In my opinion, I agree that going out on the ledge with the pipe bridge is not tactically sound.

I don't buy the recon reasoning. The CTs could easily kill you (or not) and then turn around and go elsewhere. If you get caught out there your teammates can't back you up. I can only imagine this working if you manage to sneak kill a CT and then jump back inside. That's only going to work once at most. It forces the CTs to watch that ledge but (a) they should be doing that anyways and (b) it costs them nothing to watch that ledge because it doesn't hinder their ability to move toward the courtyard.

I'd say it might be worth it to have someone very near there to make sure the CTs can't sneak up the pipes, but that person should stay hidden to maintain their advantage.

JoshZeitlin

Sorry to sound like an arse, but if I was interested in a tactical discussion I'd have placed the thread in the tactics forum.

All I want to know is whether or not the spot if legally off limits and why.

So far Roots response has been "no," but apparently it is b/c of tactical reasons and not technical ones.

I am not arguing with any of you; I agree with you - I just want to know whether or not it is legal.

not tactically sound => not helping your team complete the objective => against the rules
