lagger, because instead of implementing a sensible reserve-slot system they have res-slot kick. Get an account on the nsa forums and tell bean to give you a reserve. Because he totally should.

How is that at all a harsh tone? Lagger asked why he got kicked alot, I related the reason why and made passing reference to the fact that I think it's a bad system. And the 1980s thing mystifies me. Or is it because of the use of the word "totally"? That's just a (stupid) affectation of mine.

Isn't there a reserved slot system which keeps slots open, so when someone joins holding a reserved slot, they keep the reserved slot closed till someone in the game decides to leave, where they are then pushed down into the public slot, and the reserved slot opens back up. Allowing multiples of the reserved slot makes sure people holding res slots will get in, and people who don't have res slots will get in, but when they're in, they won't be kicked.
The pub I play on appears to have this system on it, never been kicked from it, and it's a pain in the **** to get in, since i don't have a res slot and it's full all the time. I guess this works good for the pub, but since you guys have so many res slot people, not sure if it'd work, since you'd end up filling the res slots easily, and the game would also end up not being an 8v8 at times. Still seems better than an onos getting kicked out of the game at a pivotal point in the game.
[edit] Besides, what is up with these shots of situations where you were lucky enough to fire the finishing shot at 4 aliens? Never understood the point of those.

There frequently seems to be a lack of people willing to command. Then if the fool who decided to stay in base and build continues his foolishness and hops in the chair to drop an infantry portal, he ends up commanding a twenty-minute train wreck and dealing with nothing but whining teamates who throw singeing criticism at him with every failed siege.
I speak from horrible experience. I'm still having nightmares.

I had some really bad games the other day but some really good games yesterday. Hopefully as time goes on, the number of good games will far outweigh the bad ones.
I think the bad game: good game ratio is going to be similar to any other pub. The thing I like is that the bad games are generally no longer than a couple minutes.
