So what we fancy doing tonight on the server ?

Infantry only normal maps, infantry only small maps no AAS, small maps no AAS or just leave the sever alone

Just be there

We have been missing numbers of late and, although we had a terrific 3v3 last night, we could do with more players.

Armitage · October 30, 2005, 10:11:49 AM

Yeah sorry about that. I have been away a lot lately and I don't play Friday or Saturday evenings (quality time with the wife.) I do get on late if I'm lucky. spent the last two late night sessions on TG server. now I can't wait to get back to the tranquillity of our server

Hmmmmm...

Yes, I was thinking this last night while on the [TG] server with a load of other dMw guys!

Great time at [TG], but perhaps at the expence of the dMw server.

Trouble is that when dMW guys don't find anyone on the dMw server they seem to automatically transfer over to the [TG] server as a good second alternative.

All well and good - but we were just starting to get a good number of people on the dMw server - with some guests coming along on a regular basis. We are now in danger of loosing this if the dMw is found to be empty on a regular basis...

What to do?

I think X-Fire can help us out a bit - if we see a group of dMw guys on X-fire - enough to make for a good game - then we should be messaging around to make sure that everyone available gets back on the dMw server.

Also, we should maybe nominate a specified 'away day' for visits to servers like [TG] - Maybe Fridays or Saturday nights...Reserving the rest of the week as dMw days (especially Sunday night).

Admin: Is there any way to check server stats to find out which are the busiest days on the dMw server so we can pick a good 'away day'?

What suggestions does anyone else have?

dMw Vs dgs.DLM on Sunday the 30th of October 2005 at 21:00 but otherwise I'll be there.

Try this

Armitage · October 30, 2005, 10:47:22 AM

The way I try and play is. earlier in the evening/afternoon I play on Ranked server or play with planes or choppers on our empty server. between 7-8 and 10-11 is our server time and after that is TG time.

Yep - my schedule is a bit like that:

7-8pm 16 player ranked server for warm up...

8-11pm dMw server...

11pm until bed [TG] server.

The exception is Friday and Saturday nights - the reason being:

a] Friday night used to be dMw CS:CZ night
b] Saturday night people actually seemed to 'go out'! LOL (Have real lives in other words - who'd have thunk it!)

What we need is some sort of pledge from the dMw BF2 guys to say that "on these nights we will attend dMw server" - and "on this night it is an 'away day' visit".

There were some cracking CZ games last friday - you shoulda been there

I even killed Hippy once

suicidal_monkey · October 30, 2005, 06:00:23 PM

I'm away from my gaming rig most fri, sat and sun nights, but am typically around most nights other than that, playing BF2 (though a good game of CZ ...or SOURCE

wouldn't go amiss now and then!) on the dMw server. If no-one's on at 8pm I'm usually using Xfire to find out where they are. If they're on the TG server I might go join in, otherwise I typically just hang about until a few more turn up for some dMw_server-ing. Then stick to the dMw server until it quietens down later on...

I think it's just a case of checking in on Xfire and the dMw servers to see where the rest of dMw are playing. If there's enough around then we usually migrate to the dMw server pretty fast... I prefer having a ping that starts at 40-50 over one that begins at 140 (I say begins due my rubbish over-subscribed telewest connection causing my ping to leap towards 1.2s and more...)
