Rofl, this makes sense. How can we possibly gather more than the 90% 1337ard population of the server recon? I'm fairly sure there aren't any more empires players who can shoot straight that don't stay on that server. Maybe you should have an all noobs night, 2 shaperones, one BE one NF, they look after teams of noobs and show them the ropes, it'll be tough for the shaperones but you should come out with a few players who don't suck.
29 emp_recruits 30 bucks, 3 hours 10 bucks, endless beer 90 bucks. The videos of that night, priceless.
problems with your idea---the ghost servers bigger, weve already set up a night for this (which youve blatently decided to copy), you arent allowed to lock that server, its only 32 slots....anything else im missing? ...oh yes, just incase your just blind: http://forums.empiresmod.com/showthread.php?t=6073 oh wait you already replied to that topic...
Why did I ever bother posting this... Must have been really tierd... Whoops... Maybe someone can lock the thread...
What's funny about this server is that it's run by an idiot. I was on the training server and recon was threatening to ban new players for being "new" and making mistakes. That is what new players do, until they learn the game more.
