You should also put 1.14 mods, then it could have mod night mixed in.

How about we change modnight from 6:00 to 7:00, and then start Oktoberf3st at 7:00?

Thanks, so far i've only got like 6 haha..
@dumbducky, would that not make modding night at the exact same time as this oktoberfest?
unless you wanted to have modnight in the same channels, but i will incorporate mods into this event.
I think though, to do this we will need to have selected mods which will be played through the night, maybe 5 or 6 of them.
I can host them on me and Psychic_Genius's new forums =]
Anyone agree with this?
ADDITION:
Ok, i updated the above information.

Actually, I suggested having an hour long mod night, and then starting Oktoberfest right after.

But seriously, you really could merge the two.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by www.com.au on 2006-09-07 at 22:02:15
Thats what i've already done, merged them.
If this weeks planned mod for the mod night is playable on 1.14, then i can put that in.
They will all be hosted so other people will just have to host them. I'm also hosting some Melee maps there for people to use who want to melee.
Heegu, where do you live?
It will be about 8 am where i am, but im trying to get the time that will attract the most people.

I have the world times on an html website for the mod, where the mods and melee maps will be hosted.
http://www.ss.z1b.net/oktoberf3st/worldtimes.php
If anyone wants to help me choose 1.14 Mods/Pro Melee maps please PM me. Don't say you will and have no idea what's good in a mod or melee map though, because i want people to actually enjoy themselves.

I suggest Metal Marines as a map to play. That, and Überena. Of course, I hope you already had that on your list of maps to play.

Metal marines is fun, but its only 2 player is the problem.

I asked Moose if he could put it in the Potal News forum and if failing that he could pin in this forum, but he jsut pinned it =] (which is awesome, although i need to get this thread alot more exposure to get it popular).
So if anyone can, please get other people to have a look at this thread, whether it be by posting a link in your signature or just telling them, we need it to get this event bigger.

It's only Melee maps and Mods that are being chosen for Oktoberf3st packs to download. Any UMS map can be played.
Although you can play any Melee map as well as the ones in the pack.

Im using some of the PGTour maps and some of the WGTour maps (for instance, Ride of the Valkyries
) plus other melee maps that are good.Report, edit, etc...Posted by dumbducky on 2006-09-11 at 15:43:36
I nominate the doom series as a mod to play. That would make a nice packet.
Just checking, but Fastest maps are not going to be played at all, correct?
