I know, that was in fact the point this with the event, to finally play some proper top ctf maps (as the hardcore fans had always requested) not just some fun ctf community maps as usual. the thing is that for that you need a significant party not just a handful (at best) of competitive players and some spare backups as it was being the case until the last ctf tournament. things take time but I think that it was finally worth it so thanks for participate and not bringing any drama this time.

ok, finally all done now with yesterday games, on top of all the inside processing it took like over eight more hours for YouTube to digest them, those were definitively huge games. as said, you just can not compare this to UnFreeZe in terms of production and finishing (UnFreeZe is always going to be a superior standard just for the very fact that this is not even played here at all) but that being said I just ended up reviewing it now and I think that it turned pretty good so definitively looking forward running other of these games or another small tournament in the future (ex. by the next holidays/Winter as said) if people is up for it. for the most part I think that by now this ctf thing should finally be more or less done for the use being to deliver also some exciting events as well.

i enjoyed it. i just got tired in the end (old man's issues :D). i would like to see more of the pro maps too now that we have some committed hardcore players. i think one of the all time favourites in my heart is spider crossings. @adminless maybe you could check if we can play that map next time. would really love it.

best regards

actually according to the stats the last game was your strongest ctf game so far and by a big margin, I guess you weren't really as tired as you thought you were. as for the maps as I said, I know, I think that finally this time it played about what everyone (that really bothered about this ctf thing) had asked for and I believe that given the turnout it finally worked good as it should and the fifth map (q3ctf2) even played 5vs5 as people had also requested (although a bit less competitively but all the same). I don't really think that there's much significant improvement over that beside the usual adjustments/changes here and there and, of course, making it all over again. so yeah I think that for another occasion more maps can also be played but as with the UnFreeZe thing don't expect any sort of dramatic changes at this point. that now is probably all about it as I said and it's not the point of this to now turn the pool here into a another compressive map list as it's the case with UnFreeZe for example that do mix a bit of everything. I think that so far in all about ten maps has already been played and that should be a fair amount to get started for a occasional thing like this (of course if it would grow then I'll reconsider it along with everything else but that's not the case so far).

I think on 5th map is the only map where I mostly played defense which explains the much higher dmg output ^^

maybe let's see who is interested next time. if it is more casual then ofc more causla maps and vice versa... ^^

I didn't say it before I see now, but thank you for organising the ctf event adminless! I think I never participated before in such event, but it was really fun and I liked it! 😉
