Rename every map dm_sniper_something. dm_sniper_lockdown, dm_sniper_caverns, dm_sniper_sniper, dm_sniper_avalon, dm_sniper_aim_sniper_arena_reloaded_sniper_sniper.
Works on every server I see lately. glhf.

I agree with this theory.

dm_sniper_aim_sniper_arena_reloaded_sniper_sniper = contest material.

I also made that observation. dm_sniper is super popular for some reason. I don't get it. :sketchy: There are better maps out there.

Server name: MARIO KART MOD SERVER !

MOTD: Hello! Be amazed at the amount of mario kart maps and johnburger's HL2buggy to Kart's conversion mod. The mario Kart maps will kick in after a few rounds on regular maps, enjoy your stay and drive safely :D

note: the red shells do not track players just yet, wait until next version

Current version: 1.23 b

i came from a sniper clan. trust me, its not just the sniper maps that draw them in. cause our servers weren't very popular. it's all the other shite. low grav, damage mods, sounds, chat protect, etc.

but yeah, i don't get it. i followed an old clan mate to one server that you can supercharge to 250 armor and 100 health... yet 3 smg bullets killed you. wtf???

That reminds me of when I try to peek around corners by moving my head.

Which is why I'm trying to get into the habit of cooking instead of going out. And no, that doesn't include TV Dinners or Easy Mac. Lawl.
Instant gratification is hard to let go of. :|
