Skill Stacking

[it3llig3nc3]

Guys

I just wanted to know if what I experienced today is kinda "normal" practice.

So far all I saw was that playing on the servers provided a good gaming experience. Today I just got off from the server after playing several rounds practically against a clan... that was kinda depressing... I hope it won't happen too often...

I am on server #1 lots and rarely do I ever see this bad of a blowout. If an admin is around they will usually move the map at 7-0 but there wasn't one. For the past few months I have seen VERY even play on the server. As for the s4h folks I think they started out all playing T because prodigy is usually a big advantage for CT... when people started complaining a couple of em switched to CT, I don't remember which ones.

 

Most of the regulars on this server will happily switch teams to make it a more fair game. If you feel that there is a huge discrepancy in the teams (not like 6-4 T with a one man advantage ) nicely ask if someone will switch it up. They usually will I have found.

 

Thank you for posting and bringing up your concerns. See you on the servers.

I've asked those s4h to auto, but unfortunatly i've seen them often on the same team.. They are good players and when 2 or 3 of them join the same side it's hard for the other team to come back after pistol round. They bring up the caliber of the server when they play. I admit it I like to play with the my fellow Mmmm brothers but sometimes it's the same amount of fun too play on the opposite teams. I'll try to have a talk and ask that they not stack teams.

I was on from 8:30 to 11 and saw the same thing. I private msgd them and said they needed to break it up. Apparently that didn't work. I'll bring it up to the admins on #1.

Considering that they stacked the hard side of Prodigy,

you guys must have been doing something wrong to not

get at least 1 victory!!

One thing that is nice is that they atleast joined the T side of prodigy, one of the hardest sides of any map, but also s4h is a CAL-M team, they are very good and also fun to play with imo.

 

Next time something like this happens ask one of them to come over, im sure they will.

 

I dont think we should drive them away because they are good or wearing the same tag, when i have played with them they work with the whole team and try to run strats, THAT IS WHAT WE NEED!

 

Basically they were organized and beat you bad, but next time just ask if they can switch after the 3-4th round.

i want to know who the ct was that was assigned to watch the long hall. if you wish to remain anonymous, i understand. :tongue2:

Oh and by the way... NEVER post a screeny when I am 0-4.

Thanks for looking into this.

I posted prodigy because this was the point when I really got desperate about the situation. Even on prior maps the situation was similar. (I would need to check if I have screenshots). I asked them to split up before decided to take the screenshot and post it.

 

Also there was another guy amongs the CTs (the one with the -3) who started to shoot practically everybody whom he encountered claiming that "everybody looks alike"... This adding to the skillstack of Ts made the playing impossible for me...

 

It was quite unfortunate that there was no admin around. The other server (SCOPELESS) was almost full so I was not able to switch and join to ask around if an admin is there. (as I'm not a member and I guess some slots are kept for members only...)

 

Anyways, it is not a big deal and indeed we don't need to curse s4h however they should be a bit less selfish about having fun...

 

The other thing is that altough it is not common but during the past few weeks I noticed that 10:0 10:1 10:2 map wins could easily occur. I know that some of the admin mods can not only team balance but skill balance as well (e.g. switch players from one side to another to balance the skill based on the player's scores) so you might want to consider turning it on if nothing else works.
