[PP] Supports theVille 100%.
All one current member. Long story short: group of friends and we had a pug mascot. Then we graduated years ago and well, I am the only one who still plays to my knowledge.

As for the team I usually select Red; if I choose, but normally I choose random.

Who knows maybe I'l become a Ville Supporter, just wait till I actually get payed. It's hard to collect a paycheck when the school is closed from mid December till now.
I need a new sig. :roll:

You need to drop the Big Zeroes and get with the Southeastern Heroes! :P

I found this interesting:

OSU just needs to forfeit the next time they're put in a bowl with a SEC team. :lol:

We shouldn't have been in the Championship game. We shoulda been in the Rose Bowl against Cal/Oregon/whoever came in second in the Pac 10. Shoulda been USC and LSU in the Championship game.

The BCS is a total piece of crap. I think everyone can agree on that.

Getting back on track, I don't think the answer is necessarily to force all players onto random teams all the time, although it would be nice if there was some way to scramble the teams if they get stacked. While people should be free to pick their teams, if the teams get badly stacked then it would be nice if there was some way to mix things up to stop the damage. However, such a mixup should likely only be done at the start of a new round AFTER the last couple rounds have ended in a lopsided fashion.

Nothing empties a server faster than people leaving a team that gets killed 5 times for every one time they kill the enemy.

There's a command that will allow an admin to scramble the teams and restart.

Maybe it could be integrated into the stats. If the ratio of total points between the teams is higher than a certain amount, scramble the teams so the points ratio is as balanced as possible. That would give it some intelligence and only help when it is needed, and then switch as few people as possible.

I've seen that happen once and the server basically emptied because the dominators got put on the losing team and were no longer dominating. Not sure why, but a lot of people hate losing, which could lead to people being disrespectful to one another.

I always look at the teams/score and try to decide for myself if one is stacked.. If so I join the other team.. :)
