Texas Team Player is very populated

I thought about this too once,

And I came to the conclusion that they made it a 24 player slot on purpose. So the maximum is indeed 22 players--on purpose. It's the "ideal" player amount deemed by Valve (I know that for a fact by TF2 standards, at least).

I think this is the question you want answered and I thought about making a thread on it once. But 22 players is reasonable especially for 2 servers. If one's full, join the other one. Usually people are waiting in line to get in anyway so if the other server is 0/22 join and you'd be surprised how many follow you.

Ok, let me explain this again, since nobody is using the search feature. I am guessing you want it to read 22/22 or 24/24 when full instead of 22/24. The reason I am guessing you want this is so you can just click the auto-join when a slot opens, or whatever it is called, option. Here is the real reason why we don't do that. If the server is truly full, ie 22/22 or 24/24, then the ONLY way an admin or reservist can connect is via console command. The way we have it if the server is at 22/24, and I, as a reservist, click join the server allows me to temporarily connect, checks to see if I am on the list, and if so let's me in the game while kicking a non-reservist. If you, as a non-reservist tries to connect at 22/24 the server lets you temporarily connect, checks the list, sees you are not there, and kicks you back out.

So, in conclusion, if given the option to make life easy for people who choose not to pay for a slot, or easy for people who do choose to pay for a slot who do you think we will pick? Easy answer is pay the $5 per month and get a slot, then never have to worry about it again.

Didn't the 3rd CS:S server turn into a CSPromod server? If so, we should change it back to CS:S...

It was and then it was taken away, Promod failed, and the 3rd server failed. If we brought it back i only see it holding about 8people at a time considering itd be overflow of people trying to join and instead of playing theyd be waiting around for a spot to open in one of the more full servers, thus making a 3rd server useless. IMHO

However, if we brought a 3rd server back and it was GG id be all over it.

After the new update, I can see it populated as well.

About the GG part, it has been tried multiple times. And has failed every time. I think GG is done. Haha.

Both servers are rarely 22/24 enough to warrant a 3rd server, imo. If a time comes when we consistently hit 22/24 for long periods of time every night, then the third server would be a good idea.

But we don't. So it isn't.

Most nights they both get up there. But I do agree.
