    a simple story 2 pro accounts after a standard game ends asks to go to premium an asks ppl who wanna follow , 3 to 5 ppl say yes , u remember names u invite they come .. u make sure u say 1min ur invite will come an refresh browser to make communication clear.

    8 ppl in premium server .. keep teamsize 5 ... eventually 13 players will be in server 3 specs and game will be active longer as in more rounds and premium duration can last up to 8 hours ... i do that simple myself if i work alone in my free time but i dont wish u to sacrifice ur time for such events in ur life would be much better to know the tactics and in simple form get premium active in skimmed time sequences and within weeks or months the sequence will be shorter and shorter.
    As I've stated before in other threads, I pretty much only play CTF on this account now (I do play an occasional FFA on another account). CA has become the most boring this in the world to me, and as such, being a tier 4 CTF player means it's already hard enough to find games. I rarely see CTF players spawning their own servers, other than the pickup players that spawn the server for themselves. These players rarely spawn the server for others, which is evident by the password on it. (This isn't really the point though)

    The point is that with a Pro subscription, I'd actually be able to spawn servers for people, and since I'm actively on as much as I am (mostly just sitting idle on the home page because there's no servers that interest me) I'd be able to admin and keep the server running smoothly. Plus, I have about 400 people on my friends list, so finding people to play isn't that hard :P

    If you have read my posts you know I really dislike public ca; I think that's the cancer of quake live and that ca isn't quake, but right now public ctf and public tdm are literally dead. Some people on my location are starting to realize that so they are trying to revive competitive ctf (and hopefully tdm too but ctf is the priority here).
    Personally I think that's not the correct approach though. Inviting people to play tournaments and such just makes the usual "talented" 10% of the community play each other, who then leave the game until the next tournament as they think the same about ca as I do but even more so therefore they don't on public servers (that are CA and nothing else). What I want is to cater the 90% left instead, the ca-only noobs, while at the same time making that 10% play regularly.
    On both cases what's necessary is reviving public ctf and on decent maps, like q3 and q2 were in their golden days, and right now that requires a pro account.

    TBH I can't do much as a premium player (which btw runs out this year) to support ctf and other mods, as I can only join servers. If I had a pro account I would invite standard users and spawn public ctf servers, which for some reason makes people join a lot more than just being on a regular public premium server. I know which greasemonkey scripts are useful for that, for example invite by console (with that one you don't no need to have them in friend list) and automatic invites (someone on the friend list says "invite" and they are invited without me moving a finger), and that idling on the server is of the essence.

    (1 year pro would be awesome).
    Well said

    Limbless_Pony: 31 hours played in the last month (almost all CTF).
    YMCMB: 38 hours (almost all CA).
    pikaluva13: 5 hours played (+3 on the alt), more time on forum than in game :)

    On my other account (avens) I have 455 ctfs total, on this one 111. You also "forgot" to mention the last 2 months and that I'm a considerably better ctf player than the other "contestants".

    Considering you work for id if you are going to post stats you should do it well instead of tweaking stats to benefit your fellow countryman limbless_pony. Lets see if this post gets removed.

    I don't work for id nor have access to any stats other than you (actually less because you know your alts :))

    How is proving that you're the most active one benefiting my fellow countryman? Not to mention we all hate each other here, but you can't know that :)

    I just want to point out that pony plays in Euro servers while I play in NA servers. The Euro CTF scene isn't as dead as NA. Therefore, finding games is MUCH easier for him. (I'm calling you avens now for ease of not writing "YMCA" 50 more times xD) What is your skillrating in CTF? How can you judge that you're better than me in CTF skill-wise when you don't have access to the numbers. We're both Gold-tiered.

    *was unaware this was a "competition"*

    I hit twice as much as you and limbless_pony on ctf matches /discussion. Tiers/gold/etc don't matter the slightest bit as everyone is tier4 these days and that's the maximum possible. Sadly there's no qlranks elo available for ctf.

    And you are right about pony. It's way easier if there are actual public ctf matches going on at all times.

    Nice to see that the skill-nerd rage has plagued this threat as well.

    You're probably not playing CTF correctly though. You've literally got about 500 games of CTF played combined compared to nearly 1500 for me. The game isn't about accuracy, it's about capturing flags.

    (Just for the record, my CTF skillrating is 124 (I'll edit if it's changed in the past couple of days))
