I would still like to try the 12 Slot Version.
The server is often populated with 8+ players and sometimes completely filled for a period of 2 to 4 hrs in the evening.
That, plus the fact that a bunch of sandstorm pubbys became new EBS members in the past couple of weeks makes me thinking About those two extra Slots.
So if we figure it out that it is to complicated to handle the Teamplay we can go back to ten Slots without any big trouble

Ztranier is right. So many people have signed up lately that it's inevitable that we'll be needing extra slots soon.
The problem I forsee is one for [mention]kentone[/mention] unfortunately.
Is it possible to ramp up the bot numbers to make it feel challenging enough, or will we have to increase the AI and just get sniped from 150m?
Can the bot numbers be linked to the number of players sufficiently that 6 can still have a good game and not be overrun by 12 players' worth of bots?
I fear compromises may have to be made somewhere but that we should now ask ken to do what he can for us.

well for what it worth ,here's my input, I have on many occasions recently looked at our server with the intention of playing but it's been full, but my personal dilemma is although I want to join in if the server is full of members, proby or full , I hate pushing someone out to allow me a slot, fine if someone says im off after this round anyway but if everyone is happily playing and they intended to play all evening I feel awkward asking , as I do have many other games I could play ,if there's an open slot then fine but just don't feel happy pushing someone out.

naahhhhh
don´t be shy [mention]warlock359205[/mention]
just ask us if u need a slot m8
thus is the EBS Sandstorm Server and for me it would be an honor to play the same game as you do on our server at the same time (maybe it is just my oppinion but i doubt it)
pls don´t care about pubbys
just mention us on discord sandstorm chat @here if you struggle to speak Sir, and there will be a free slot whenever u need one
we are bagging at least for some dirty jokes all the time ;)

I will make adjustements, the bot amount currently increases depending on the player amount, so I think we will keep the balance :)
