First of all, kudos to manu, moto, viper, vila, and all the other cops, admins and trusted players that make viper.pimpi.org:5158 a great server! Thanks as well to a number of great players that make viper.pimpi.org:5158 a fun server.
As anybody who plays Two Castles regularly knows, the style and level of gameplay varies widely at various times during the day. I know that here in the EST timezone, lunchtime is a good time for scorechasing, and 11pm-1am is a perfect time for teamplay (those being the times I most often play) and various gradients of both inbetween.
I've also noticed that certain players are more focused on team playing than others. I'm guessing that these players would be happier playing on a server that is more dedicated to actual CTF - with an emphasis on strategy and tactics as opposed to raw firepower.
So, I thought I'd post and ask in hopes that said players will express interest or disinterest: does anyone appreciate the idea of starting up a league-style Two Castles server modeled after Viper's map (with his consent, of course!)? It could be run on a team ladder/league basis or simply an up-front admonition to play as a squad, not a soldier. Perhaps sometime down the road we could also explore the possibilities of a team audio channel for in-game strategizing.
I've zero experience in running a server, but I'm willing to learn. Unfortunately at this time I don't have the resources to build a server or buy a slot on one - that could be a significant issue unless someone else thinks their server could handle another 20 players.
I'll entertain all thoughts and ideas - creativity springs from the mind of many - speak up!
