I would like to start this post by saying what a wonderful time I've had here just within my first week. The people are great and friendly and very respectable. My second day on the servers there was an FFA in the fort. This sparked my interest greatly seeing as I am a CTFer and prefer guns to saber in this game. I found the FFA to be very invigorating and fun. After some poking and proding of the very kind Setementor (thanks for answering my questions) I learned of the Aurochs and their role in the JA as a TFFA team and at one point a CTF team. Sadly, setementor informed me he does not believe they exist as a CTF team anymore. My position is this, I am offering myself to aid in the rebuilding of the CTF team. (Whoevers territory that is) I can help organize people, and even aid in training of CTFers. I think it would be a tremendous idea for this place to rise up and show its mastery not just of the saber but a full mastery of the GAME and all its aspects, including CTF gunFFA/gunTFFA and the ability to effictivly use force in a live game. Consider this and leave feedback. Also to whoever is in charge of the team if you are interested in my help you can post on my profile or contact me via MSN @ full13metal37@hotmail.com  _______________  |

Quote: Here's the problem:  kids go learn up their gunning skills they get good at strafe jumping they learn some tacticsThen they go to find a ctf server with 3 or more actual players on it (ie not bots) and all they find is JA+(-). If you are prepared to try your hand at ctf on the mod sworn to make jedi into nerf, you will find:  players who know how to use guns but choose instead to stand in one spot and spam push/pull whenever they see another player players who cry that their team is too weak and try to recruit the top scorer on the other side instead no team-work whatsoever people who call strafe jumping/wallrunning/doing anything other than running around with your lightsaber turned on all day cheating jumping up onto a ledge often causes you to get "stuck" to the wall due to the grab-and-climb-up animation, which makes you a sitting duck for anyone actually wielding a gun (admittedly not more than 50% of the server) NB: this is extra fun with a 300ms ping, when the server lets you think you got to the flag before dragging you back to be raped up the butt by someones disruptor, while you hang like the target dummy you areI had forgotten why I don't play anymore. Thankyou JA+ CTF for reminding me. Alot of this is true but heres what I think: I didnt know how to use a gun well or strafe jump well when I frist entered a CTF server. Everything came by expirance and natrual skill. I do hate people who cry about that their team suxs. I just tell them "Your such a idoit! If you wanted your team to win you should encourage them not discourage them." and from the people around I get a respons like "Phantom is decent." Or something like that. Team work is hard to get but if you know who to talk to about it then your golden, just need a reputation of being a good ctf and people will know that they can depend on ya. _______________ -Phantom Ex-Master to Threat.

I would have to agree with Dane. Also being a fellow CTFer, one of the few remaining that still love it in this game, the majority of the CTF community has moved on to different games for CTF. However, I really like the idea of a CTF team. Its a shame it isn't extremely popular. _______________ .: Proud Padawan of Dane |

I agree, CTF complements sabering/force abilities very well. I think a good start would be to initiate a couple of regular weekly CTF sessions so the talent and interest can be gauged. -Ian _______________ Member #7625 | Since 7.6.04 The Archives |
