How To Raise Am Traffic

we're currently 13th globally according to game tracker. We're full to the brim for nearly 18 hours so the only way to get higher is to populate during those weird hours of 3AM-8AM

perhaps we should change the game mode? allow unlimited cash? different maps? (maybe stick to one map rotation), turn it into a gungame/arms race? Etc.

if we could populate the full 24 hours we will rule the world

I would be worried about crashing, this Game is to buggy to deal with mode changes =\

I wouldn't mess with it right now and I think once we get some new maps added to the server things will become more populated at odd times.

i doubt it

if its just a matter of making things run smooth then our regular Source server should have been filled 24/7 too

Only reason we even go into 3AM is thanks to the west coast guys who get decent ping.

Targeting the eurotrash guys is useless because they just can't get the ping to make it worth their while.

But there are those weird bums that play at 4am or 5am in North America, and it's them we need to target. A few times when I couldn't sleep or wake up super early I would go and try to find some games, and it would always be some random server, usually a gun game that still had at least some people playing (6-8 total).

It would be interesting to figure out who these people are that play so early and try to tickle their fancy.

Is the London server unpopulated around those times?
Cause I'm sure that would be full around morning time for us Brits.

Don't forget school is back soon. Actually I think in the US they started today. So expect that to have an impact on the server population at odd times.

I wouldn't mind a late night custom map rotation

add: been loving this server playing on it all the time and have met some new ppl

This watered down shit version of Nuke should be removed from all GO servers.

I've noticed the Competitive server bails after it gets voted....

We tried putting a 1.6-like versio of Nuke and de_nuke_ve, that competitive redesign, but it turns out those cannot be used/downloaded by clients on dedicated servers. Everyone seems to be having the same issue, and I've check out other servers running the map to make sure. If you don't already have the map it just won't download. :poop:

i hate to say it cause i like nuke.. but this version does suck..(needs the back door & hallway back!) I would thnk a custom map rotation and maybe a lil more money will get some peoples attention.. can't hurt to try right?! btw we Americans tend to think of Canadians as aliens.. but what the hell i like Canadians.. I dated several of em..(hahahah a little american corruption in ur Canadian women!!:eek:) that being said.... lets get er done and make these servers #1!!!!!
