Ok here it is. I have a pub server that I would like to see used.

I am open to suggestions about what people would like to see and what would get people to play there.

I have tried AD and no one seems to like those maps too much.

I am curious to know if people would play there if I had CTF,HLDM,AD or whatever.

I am serious about this server. I pay for it and would like to see people use it. It's a elucid gaming server out of texas. So pings should be good.

Please save your flames. I have a whole thread dedicated to me if you wish to flame me:

It seems like a popular pub is more dumb luck than the maps played there. I'd say maybe do the most popular maps from STA and TFL. Other than that, I'd say just shamelessly plug your server like none other to get people in it.

Besides the obvious that you shouldn't be an admin of that server, or at least use an alias, I would get a ton of admins and give them very little meaningful power, and run a rotation of the current and next week's league maps.

Prediction: Cesspool, 30 minutes, tops.

I was trying to do an alternative to PF which has alot of rules and is league play oriented. That is why I went with Attack/defend but seems outside of a few A/D clans no one really likes these maps. I may make a switch to sta,tfl,igl league maps and like openfire and shutdown2 rotation.

Admins could be an issue, outside of people affiliated with Clan =1= I really wouldn't want anyone having rcon.

I pay for this server out of pocket and although it is not alot of money. I would still like to see it utilized somehow.

So far, some good suggestions. Keep them coming.

Maybe switch rotation around during the week, like SA Maps day because I miss them:(
