is shit, lets put ATB on the server.

3 rounds of 6(losing T's) vrs 9(winning Ct's) because "it couldnt find a fair switch)

fuck that shit. ETB is nothing but fail, ATB may not be perfect(or much better at all) but ffs atleast its stops that shit from happening

Rule 6. No Team Stacking. If the teams are stacked, then make it right, otherwise an Admin will make it right for you. Also, Please try auto-select when joining a game. This will prevent team stacking and also ensure that the side that needs a player gets a player.

It is your duty as an admin to balance teams. And that goes for all admins here. ETB and/or ATB are only here to HELP admins, but not to take the responsibility away from them. ATB balances TEAM sizes only, it will put a top player from a losing team to the winning team to balance team size.
ETB balances via KD ratio. Downside is, if top players are not dead, it will not do a switch. ATB is not any better, it just makes sure even number of players are on each teams. Why not ask prop to tweak the configs? Or is there a way to have both working at the same time?

Someone should code a balancer that takes the best guy from one team and swaps him with the worst guy on the other team.

hmmm... I know c...

Thats fine, i know where your coming from, so we have to find a solution for this, that's all. But ATB i dont think is the right choice. It will make switches but not fair ones. Prop is there any of the configs we can change to make it more efficient?

ATB would be better for the short term, then once we either find a new TB or find a good set up for our ETB then take ATB off and set up ETB again.

Current ETB < old ATB < a good TB
 
Isn't there a setting in ETB to limit max team # imbalance? Make ETB work with a max team imbalance of 1. Prob solved.

I WILL balance teams IF I DON'T get called abusive! I've rushed on 0-6 teams de-fkn-termined to fight and win, ergo my post in &quot;General&quot; forum: &quot;How I feel&quot;.

I've always considered it more admin abuse, then if I ban some guy's face for too many HS in a row.

Consider: it's 0-6, so I rip 1manarmy and Drew(or Steve or Nick, or whoever) from winners and move last place 2 players from losing team. How much flack am I going to endure? NOT much, I'll assure you that! :)

*Finger on ban button now.*
Edit: typos.
 
ETB could use some configuration, i've seen what Stve mentioned happen way too often, team balance would be the first thing i'd fix.

Looks promising, although it looks like it requires an SQL database which I'm sure we don't have access to on the server.

Last night on Pira for 4 rounds the T team was with 3-4 players less and was getting pwnded as well ... ETB sucks big time (or at least the current configuration does - admins don't take it personally, I'm just saying).
