In any case, I think we're gonna have more of these get-togethers in future. Were going to have to stop putting stuff about those in the front page though, otherwise were gonna have to call this website "Team Abandonia Fortress".

Expack finally figured out whats with our games suddenly ending and switching the map, so thats gonna be fixed in the future.

As the server is always running, I recommend that If you're looking for a game, its a good place to go. Today when I went there 2-3 hours before the event, it slowly filled up with players.

I also wish we'd add more maps to the map rotation. I'd want ctf_well, cp_degrootkeep, koth_harvest, cp_gorge and pl_badwater added to the map rotation and maybe remove ctf_sawmill and cp_steel. Especially the latter since most of us felt it was very confusing.

Everyone is of course free to suggest maps added/removed from the rotation. I think its up to Phreeze since he's running the server.
I agree - the "open to the community" approach seemed to result in better numbers than the "sign up for exclusive access to nothing more than an informal get-together" approach (for obvious reasons ). In regards to the map selection, because the community match was a sort of re-launch of the private match, it also had the same map rotation.

I do apologize for not banning the rude dude (whose name I shall not mention) sooner than I did, but I didn't know the proper ban command, and when I learned what it is, it was inexplicably a pain to even get it working.

Although I'm flattered by your complement, it was [ABCD] The Black Amber (whoever he/she is) who figured out what was wrong with the server. I think what the issue was mp_winlimit and mp_windifference both needed to be turned off (e.g. set to 0).

Also, I think discussing the Abandonian TF2 server should, from here on out, be covered in a separate thread. In addition, unless this thread is going to be used for future TF2 community matches, I think this thread should remain open for a day or two so people can comment on the previous match before someone needs to tell Frank to push the button (e.g. a mod/admin needs to close this thread).
