Late-night JB

Recommended Posts

Since its gonna be after 11pm EST, I don't think we're gonna need to put a password on it. It should be empty enough by then that everyone who is there will know what's going on.

If we want to go on only when the server is empty, then we should be bumping the time back a lot. Like Jordo said, the server is populated sometimes from 10 PM and even later. Also we have to realize as more and more kids are getting out of school, more people are going to be able to stay up much later as there's no pressure from homework. Not only that but in other timezones it's not actually going to be 11 PM (ex: if players on the West Coast hopped on at 11 PM EST, it would be around 8 PM PST), so we can't just count on the time alone to get the server completely empty. The only way I see that happening is by moving the time back to like 1 AM EST, but some people may be too tired to play at that point. Either we put a password on (but make sure everyone who has access to forums can find the password [i.e. making a thread explaining when/what late night jailbreak is with the password on the thread]) or we risk having randoms coming on who have no idea what's happening and will most likely be put off by the abuse/racism/rulebreaking going on (which could possibly result in un-warranted ban requests and abuse reports).

I know that it's usually somewhat populated around that time. I don't know if it'll really be a big deal with having some randoms on. I'm fine with waiting later into the night, but it's not just a fun night for us. It may be beneficial to show those randoms that we are a clan that has fun from time to time.

I'll +1 this.I find that at late night is when we're all relaxed and surprisingly funny. There's always some leniancy at night with just the 6 - 14 regular late nighters and its a good way to bond as a community. We could always make this some sort of Community based night. like what @@Forest did awhile back. I think it would be a great idea.

This is xG you're talking about. Restricting it to members and staff only will only result in arguments, hate messaging, and bans.

if time is a problem, than have the admins and stuff say in all chat "This is now Late Night JB, where the fun really begins" or something like that to make sure that randoms know whats going on, and who knows, it might attract more people because of its leniency and flexibility, 11 pm EST is reasonable, most of our members are from the east coast anyway, the people who arent in east coast would have more time to play Late Night JB, which is better for them

 

tl dr: 11 EST is fine, admins tell players in all chat that its late night jb every now and then to not confuse people, west coast people get more time to play

I think there is enough interest to actually invest some time into setting this up, so I will. Date will be TBD until I get confirmation that this will be allowed (and possibly coincide it with bringing back the hub).

 

Date: TBD

Time: 11pm EST (8 am on the following day for our friends that live in Tajikistan)

 

Location: CS:S Jailbreak

 

Rules: Don't be a dipshit, don't perma-ban everyone. Not too difficult to grasp this idea.

 

 

Ill be updating this as I get more information/requests

+1 Hell yeah, this sounds great. And for one night, not even. For a few hours, who cares if its pass protected? People will look at it later, knowing that something cool is going on, and if you're not in xG then your missing out. People will get curious, start to wonder and apply to see what the shits going on. Also, ive got some good porn sprays to use...
