We should set this up for real, though. It'd probably pretty fun and might be a good way to kick start pugs a little bit. Anyone have any suggestions for times? This weekend maybe?

im not sure that janning in the bunker is better than out at the bridge. it depends on the defense your team gives and how they attack the atst

You should always jan in the bunker because it leaves the jan alive longer, the only thing that matters when you're trying to freeze the atst. Besides, the atst can kill a shield in like 4 seconds.

Yeah, what schrute said. It's better protection from enemy reborn boss and snipers. Staying alive and freezing the ATST is the best course of action unless you can guarantee that you won't get maxed standing out in the open. (hint: you can't)

That said, on Tempest I never go ion. A.) Ion is usually hacked on tempest, B.) It's really fun to tensor shield and watch dudes walk into the ravine. :D

Depends on who's playing. Randir is a pretty good O jan.

The server trackers are totally unreliable. I have an alias on the impulse one (Baby Magyk) that I played like 3 full maps as one night, and averaged close to 4kpm or something ridiculous. I have other high ones too, and I have other ones on the low end of the spectrum I'm sure. My usual alias is at like 1.6 or 1.7kpm or something. The only way the server tracker will ever be reliable is if it averages all variations of "Magyk" aliases for one solid score. Which will never happen.

I guess I don't understand why everyone is so crazy about being on top of the server tracker.
