Declined Skial Surf

[Renegade]

The surfing map that Skial had was one of the first servers I went to when I started playing Team Fortress 2. Most times it was empty but it did fill up quite a lot at some times. What if it was brought back? I'm sure if it was advertised, then a lot of people would join and it'd be filled up quite a lot since it was pretty fun. I know for sure that I'd be there a lot, at least. What do you guys think?

 

[Sarcasm]

To my knowledge, I think all the servers fill for a good portion of the timezone they're in...

 

[Eris]

So many servers I'd rather have, like a custom maps server that uses SLAUGHTERHOUSE rotation, plus maybe hydro.

Make a suggestion then.

 

[Chance]

What skial should get is The hidden gamemode

 

[Sarcasm]

While that gamemode is nice, I can pretty much guarantee it wont fill the same way as /every/ server we have.

What game mode is that? Prophunt? That's kinda bad.

 

[Sarcasm]

Hidden is more like hale.

 

[Chance]

Hidden is more like hale.

yea I thought about that, it would be a neat boss for vsh!

 

[Sarcasm]

I would probably suggest that, and work on creating a template for it yourself. Suggesting something with the work mostly done already is a higher chance of success.

 

[Eris]

Never mind. SLAUGHTERHOUSE map rotation is a little dumb.

Eh, Skial Surf had its moments when it was filled up. It wasn't always dead.

I have every skial server favorited and I don't think I've ever seen one with less than 12 people on it.

 

[Sarcasm]

Right, but why would we replace a server that is full generally 10-12 hours a day for a server that has its moments when its full, and isn't ALWAYS dead?

 

[Renegade]

I still think Skial Surf would be fun to bring back.

 

[Sarcasm]

I just think its not an efficient use of skial's resources

 

[Renegade]

Eh, I guess this won't happen. Bummer.

 

[Bottiger]

Our surf server used to be popular but then our host made us change IPs.

I kept the server up for 4-5 months until it had a maximum of 3 players the entire day.

I heard that a large surf server closed but that was a while ago.

Our custom maps and fortwars server also died like this.

 

[Renegade]

That's unfortunate. Ah well, it was fun while it lasted.
