Pickup- when two games are started and there is 1 server

Post by MikeyW »

Is this right?

We kept starting new 3v3 games on the pickup channel, but everyone just came into the same server, and everyone thought they were playing.

Does the pickup thing not create a new server when a new game is started?

No. There is only one server used for it and no new one is created.

At times like these, when people want to practice for a sumo tournament, a second 3v3sumo pickup server should be set up.

Since servers do not grow on trees, unless someone volunteers one it's not going to happen. simple as.

Edit: furthermore none of us have the config.. *looks at G5*

When this arises I usually get around to start another server myself. Not having the 3v3sumo.eu config, despite having asked for them, I can't do that. Sorry.

I really doubt someone is hiding the config. With that said, usually there isn't a need for a second 3v3 sumo server, its just the WST time. Should be some sort of rule for it though, or a fix.

You should really get rid of !add fort4.us. Last night was the first night we actually had a us crowd, ubfortunately there was no us server to play in, so we went to the eu server. Then another game started in firt4.eu, so all they players botched and like three didn't show up.
