LMCTF Revival!

[Silk]

Hello tastyspleeners!
Just wanted to give everyone a heads up about a revival of the once popular CTF mod for Q2, LMCTF.

We have organized scrimms every Tuesday night beginning @ 9:00 EST on a passworded server.  We select team captains who choose teams before we play and we try to keep them even (switch people up) for some intense games.  We also nail down map selections the week before so everyone has an opportunity to check out the maps before they are played.

We regularly have 7v7 and 8v8 matches that are always a lot of fun and would love to get the player count up even higher to play some of the really big maps!

If you are interested in getting on the mailing list for these scrimms, just send a quick note to 4me2poop0n@gmail.com.  That E-mail address belongs to an old clan buddy of mine who is the point man for organizing the scrimms.  You can request to be put on the weekly mailing list and we will get a weekly IN or OUT headcount.

We also have a facebook group q2lmctf@groups.facebook.com.  We have plenty of technical experts there to assist with any LMCTF troubleshooting you may have.  Although, I suspect most of you here will have little trouble.

Many of the files for lmctf can be found here on this site in the files section.

Oh yeah, the public server is lm.ravenhurst.com

Hope to see you in the pubs!

Lets get an LMCTF game going tonight!
if no luck tonight. lets try again on Tuesdays Wednesday and Thursdays.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
i have had the honor of playing in a few LMCTF games the past couple years.
they have had some good stretches of activity here and there. some great tourneys.
A lot of potential for a revival anytime.
Tuesday was the day for a while.
-----------------------------------------------
i wish it was easier to catch a game and they had a more active community.
maybe we can change this

 I am trying to organize a game tonight. hoping to get at least a 4v4 going.

everything you need to play the game downloadhere-- http://www.lmctf.com/downloads/lmctf_install/LMCTF_COMPLETE_2012/LMCTF_COMPLETE_2012.zip

ive been experimenting with textures. a little lazy to experiment much further.  i do enjoy turning texture quality down so the textures dont matter much at that point.

yeah 1 regular LMCTF guy there. the other 5 i did a little arm twisting and they hopped on board.

LM had some great turnouts on Tuesday and Thursdays for a while. Hopefully it picks up again

are you an LMCTF veteran?

im new to LMCTF myself and have been very fascinated by their community.

[bvughtoonice]

had about 8 new players try out LMCTF for the first time or return after a very long vacation last Tuesday.

sparked some attetion from some other older LMCTF veterans

i felt the need to post the server.cfg that i tweaked and modified, public in case anyone wants to run a lithium ctf server with my settings. mind you, i spent many years testing, tweaking, perfecting and working on this mod so it's as balanced as possible. so if anyone does create a server, it would have to stay intact exactly as saved. otherwise it will mess up the gameplay factor. even if it is changed, my website has all the information required. i'll add a server zip with all the necessary files besides the basic files that are easily accessible on the tasty site. Remember it's not just CTF, it's Super Lithium CTF! i Hope you all enjoy the mod i feverishly worked on the mod i love so much.
