Monopoly on the Flag Business?

[NeptuNium]

The same team has been winning flag game after flag game for the past three hours with almost no opposition. Please just put both teams into spec after one or two, or even three wins. This is just ridiculous. You guys talk about how you want this zone to be more "newb friendly" and easier to get into, but one stacked team winning 15 flag games in a row is anything but "newb friendly."

i agree, it really sucks to loose 3 games in a row to the same team.

 

At the end of the flag game system should send the macro

 

f11 ; ?flag

 

to everyone currently flagging to redistribute the teams.

Also should install a cooldown on typing ?flag to make hopping harder.

It used to spec the flag teams every few games after the stats table dumped

but then they turned it off because it crashed the zone way too often

That's odd, considering it was all python

I think it had to do with speccing so many players at once. It exposed race conditions or some such. It was a long time ago and I don't really remember. To be honest I don't actually remember removing the module.

Actually, I disabled it ages ago because I'd implemented a shuffling method in hs_flagprivs. I wanted to change that later on to implement a new balancer/evener. Tried to give hs_flagprivs an interface so other modules which for some strange reason crashed HS even though the only new thing was a "RegInterface" and two very basic methods.
