    Dear FFN Payload Players - New Rotation Managers

    Effective immediately Iller and Dorothy of Oz are going to be sharing Rotation Manager duties for the Payload server. They are working with Flik to get trained up and get access to the server files.

    I have asked them both to also get with Poppet to take the feedback she has collected into account. Hopefully within the next few days we can start moving toward positive change on the server.

    I feel that Iller and Dorothy not only cover opposite sides of the clock but they also play with entirely different groups of players. Having both of them working together allows us to make decisions that are for the best of everybody who plays instead of just one group of people.

    Please thank them both for stepping forward into this position.

    Grats to both of you!

    Added you dorothy if you ever see this.

    If either of you have questions, and flik isn't available I'm fine with answering them. (Remember: You can bug net and razer too )
    Too strong of an opinion can interfere with the process of collection.

    Thank you everyone! And as I have already mentioned to Ed a few days ago, please feel free to contact me directly anytime with any concerns you have! As one of the longest running players on the server, I recognize that variety and stability is extremely important for the future of this server and I'm a firm believer in voicing your opinions BEFORE they turn into grudges.

    Yes Sir! ...Just waiting on Privs.

    I also want Payloaders to know that I have no plans to just make judgment calls (as opposed to the ones I routinely have to make with Team Scrambles). My one condition for doing this is to do it primarily in a Technical Capacity. That means my immediate priority is to get Woodland off the rotation until the Exploits on it (and timer issues) can be fixed and also getting in touch with as many Mapmakers as I can who will work with us (but primarily with me since I know you guys would rather not deal with Hammer and Nav Meshes and Map Decompiling to test congestion and discover glitches).

    .......Instead, I am hoping that Dorothy and the regulars on the server (through Poppet?) will help make most of the judgment calls for me so that I can just deal with the Configuration and testing aspects of the role; and more importantly to me, so that I can keep playing on the server every night as I have been, to make sure everyone who wants to play is able to play (and kicking the AFK's who often prevent that).

    Other Priorities will be to figure out why Frontier is coming up so often, work with valve support to figure out why Thundermountain is crashing, and work with Dorothy to open up the rotation to the Player Quota system instead of the Time system (which seems to be contributing to the Frontier issue) ...which was the last thing we were working with Shaman Bond on for the server before he stepped away from the position. ...and finally, attempt to configure the Auto-Scramble variables to better handle the conditions that Jabberwocky has already noted in the last thread.


    Side Note: I was already working with one map-maker, the creator to Wintertown and I completed several major fixes to the map's Performance. I will be getting back in contact with him now that we can finally start putting some fixes live.
