New Team Balancing - OverBalance.

Future Ban List Occupant
I'm posting not to stir up crap but just to gauge everyone's thoughts -

I have noticed lately when a team appears to be stacked and wins lets say 5-6 rounds in a row off the start - a counter balance occurs that ends up shifting 3-4 players to the other team. However, no bodies are sent back the other way and the round ends up 16 players on 10 - or something similar. The first round after this shift always ends up being a no contest win for the 16 player team, how is this an effective way of solving the balance problem? I understand people must observe the teams and switch if possible when they are dead, but this kind of shift basically screws over all players on the one team for a round or two.

Comments good or bad, post them up!

so we just assumed it was an admin moving 4 people to the other team to make the stackers pay, was that correct?

admins do move players... its hard when u have stackers that move right back... also no one is perfect im sure both of u have been on the winning side have not switched yourselves so ....

I think the way we have it now is for the best. We at least have admins to swap players around if need be. That's honestly as good as I think it will get.

Ok just to clarify, the ATB doesn't have any FLASHY advert mentioning the swap of players. But it DOES swap players and balances teams. I've seen it balance teams several times on the weekend. The instances where you probably find imbalanced teams is probably when people left and the ATB has not rebalanced yet. And to top it off, Admins are supposed to help balance as well.

There is not ONE TB that we have used in the past where people have not complained. This road leads nowhere. This works, and with the help of admins and players, there should be no issues. Again, everyone needs to do their part, if you see someone stack, call them out on it and tell them to join the losing team. And obviously stackers will be stackers, if someone stacked your team and they wont change, and no admins are around, why don't you be the better player and switch yourself.

Pretty simple.
