PR Weekends @ Tactical Gamer 20130407

[Portable.Cougar]

The Tactical Gamer Project Reality Server Weekend Events!!

Cougar's Day
When: Sunday, April 7th
Time: 9am Pacific/1600 GMT

Before you join, PLEASE take 2 minutes to read through the server rules. There will be a heavy admin presence and our rules will be enforced. There is no excuse for not knowing the rules. If you have any questions regarding our server rules, or you would just like to stop in and say hello, we will have admins and community members on teamspeak prior to the server going live. We all have a lot of friends in this community, and we expect a lot of PR veterans to come out to play on the server, so stop in and see what everyone has been up to. A link to our teamspeak server is at the bottom of this post.

Tactical Gamer prides itself on being a community of mature, teamwork-orientated gamers. We believe in playing games with tactics and teamwork, and have little tolerance for other styles of game play. While not all agree with our philosophy, we find that we have had incredible success with it in the past and see no reason why we cannot do so again. If you didn't have the opportunity to play on our Project Reality server before, please browse through our forums to see what we're all about. Admittedly, they haven't been very active discussing PR lately (which is entirely understandable, although we anticipate this changing in short order), but there are plenty of other titles that we host where you will be able to see what we're all about.

If you've played with us before then we'd like to welcome you back. We also would like to announce that our ban list has been wiped clean. We're starting over, and as such we're starting over with everyone in the PR community. If we've had a disagreement before perhaps things have changed and you'll enjoy the server. Regardless of what happened in the past, we welcome all upon our return.

The server will be open on Sunday only, playing a limited map list. We've selected the maps based on how we feel they can play out in an organized fashion. Once we've played all the maps, we will bid everyone goodbye and shut down the server.

Our map list for Sunday the 7th are as follows:

• "vadso_city" "gpm_skirmish" 16
• "yamalia" "gpm_vehicles" 64
• "prv_charlies_point" "gpm_cq" 64
• "black_gold" "gpm_cq" 32
• "pn_saint_lo" "gpm_cq" 64
• "iron_ridge" "gpm_insurgency" 64
• "goose_green" "gpm_cq" 32
• "pavlovsk_bay" "gpm_cq" 32
• "tad_sae" "gpm_cq" 16
• "silent_eagle" "gpm_cnc" 64

A note about our Supporting Members: We understand that there has been some frustration in the past over our Supporting Member kicks. In full disclosure, we will not be changing this program. So that everyone understands how it works:

We have a script running on the server that checks each player that is joining against a database of supporting members. If the server is full and the player attempting to join is a SM, the script will look at all players that are on the server that are NOT supporting members and kick the player that has been on the server the longest. It is our belief that those that financially support our community (and therefore our servers) have earned the right to enjoy the servers that they help pay for. Now, with that said, we're not quite sure where our supporting member numbers will be on Sunday, so we can't easily state one way or another if there will be a rash of SM kicks. However, the servers required to host our web site, game servers, etc. are not free. That's all that will be said on this topic, and the policy is not open for debate.

Your ball and all that? Can't say fairer than that I guess.

I understand about running costs, but how do CIA & HOG manage to run great servers without the 'rich kids get to play, poor ones move aside' feature?

Not debating your policy, as it's not what you wish. Your server, your rules. I simply asked how the other good servers manage to draw in their funding.

Actually, I shouldn't be derailing your thread, sincere apologies.

In those last events, there hasn't been a single map with jets on it..

[Redamare]

>.< I wish i didn't have so much to get done...

As we are rebuilding our community, our supporting member numbers are down considerably. This just means that everyone gets a chance to play on our server. Even when we had a large number of supporting members, non-supporting members had more than enough opportunity to get a good amount of playing time on the server.

Even so, a supporting membership costs what, $8.00 US a month? What does a good bottle of bourbon cost? How about 2 tickets to a movie? A dinner out? How does one need to be rich to afford $8.00 a month if you think it is worth it to you? If you don't think it is worth it, then just don't spend it - it doesn't really matter either way.

The main difference is here, all this belongs to real life. I agree with Rapid12 on what he said

I should follow my own advice. This policy is not open for debate.

[Spec]

That said, I will delete any further comments on the policy and hand out infractions without warning in this thread, beginning now.

I missed this event due to real life events. Hope to catch the next one. Thanks for getting TG up and running I really look forward to playing there when I can.
