The gameplay settings on the TIC server are out of my interest. For that i dont play on it
Last i check your problem was no insta spawn and sometime ago xaymar installed plugin that turns every map spawn time to 7 seconds.
Also, i would like to ask people like moon constantly trying to invite players from TF2 server to other servers just because he thinks TF2 sucks, sure, you can think what ever you want about the game, but god sake, there is people putting their money on running this server. Also, i was planning to start getting server known around custom maps scene, as we run some high quality custom maps, that should do the trick, but first i would like to know if it is worth to have it under ice cave flag.
I suggest we have proper grand opening for the server as last time there was such thing planned, we end up playing on server hosted by Ned.
