Like the title says jail has changed. When I started playing 3 years ago on our servers when I was still ryse, you had to be fast and always paying attention to get a ct spot. Everyone wanted to be ct. It also used to feel like a different game mode. The t's would rebel together instead of one guy trying to run at a time, there wasn't as many rules and everyone was alot more laid back. I feel it was alot more fun back then, but I'm done rambling now so here's the point. I know not everyone likes ct, I too get tired of it quickly, but let's try to take ct more guys and show people how it's supposed to be, and show people you can be lenient, and still win. I know several really good cts that don't play ct side anymore because you can't win, or they get frustrated because of a team that doesn't know what they're doing, or they keep baiting or whatever the problem may be. Now I know I can't make you guys do anything, but how about we start filling the ct side again, and start trying to show the new people of jail how to do it. Because the biggest reason I've found pubs don't like to play ct is because they're either bad at it, or they don't know how. Anyways guys, I got to head out to work, so have a great day everyone.

I completely agree with this (#RebableSquad).


It may just be my opinion on jail, but I think CT shouldn't exactly be trying to grind out wins and instead promote a fun gaming enviroment for others. This ties into the leniency, teaching new people, and giving people the chance to improve without everyone trashing them for not being the perfect CT.

I haven't been on jail in a few weeks so I can't comment directly on it but this is just my opinion on jail that I remembered from what you said.
 
I think a lot of the time I want to play CT the team is full and the CT team is filled with people that aren't necessarily the best or even good at being a CT. I personally suck at CT though being the kill hungry freekiller I am but it's discouraging when CT team is filled with bad players and you have to be lucky to get in. I want eGO to add a guard plugin so you can do a command and be put in a queue for CT.
 
Also what rules would you change? I think war day every 5 rounds instead of having to be winning as a CT might be better. I also think we should relook at the special day rules and certain game rules to maybe restrict certain games but not completely ban them. It would add more variety to the jail server imo
 
Maybe something discouraging killing in cellblock, for example not playing someone when they hit they're mouse when told to afk freeze, I for one get really frustrated when I get killed in cell block and have to watch the remainder of the round because some trigger happy ct sees me move a pixel and a half to the left. Another change I would make is making the cts take warden as soon as possible, I've seen the warden slot will stay open for over a minute before, so I believe we need to enforce that rule a bit more.

i agree with this. when i joined eGO i joined off of jail b/c it was fun. i cam e across this server on css that was different from the others but now it seems like everybody lost the will to rebel or be a good ct. the maps now are either too t sided that even if 1 person rebels it ruins the round b/c all cts try to kill that 1 person or the map is too ct sided and when the ts try to rebel they instantly get caught. some maps have an isolation location i think this should be used more often, ex when a t has rebelled but has not killed a ct(just ran off) if found they should be put in isolation. and the special days every kind should be at least 5-6 rounds or after a certain amount of time because if you do rounds then if you have a freeday and then have 5 short rounds then another freeday it doesnt really feel like a freeday just another regular day that cts arent really doing anything. thats another thing when ever i play jail a lot of the time it seems like the cts dont really care what happens and thats why there is a lot of rebellers. sorry for being so long
 
You cant expect the server to be the same 3 years later. Jail didn't change, leadership and players did. Its never going to be the same however that doesn't mean we still cant make it an enjoyable experience.

Eh, everyone always looks back 3 years with nostalgia. Jail is mostly defined by the people on the server, that's all that's changing really. It'll keep changing as the people do. It feels very much how it did 9 years ago for me, except now I'm the oldest on the server, instead of the kid with the cracking voice.

I always enjoy playing CT, mainly bc I like not being dead in the often decreasing amount of game hours I have now.
 
I get what you mean. Jail changes with the population that is playing it. Sure our rules have changed a bit over the years, but the player base is the one that dictates how the game is played. If you are wanting the server to be like it was years ago, you have to get the players motivated to be how it was then. Even though it won't be 100% like it was, you can try to get it that way (which is what you are doing here).

Hopefully people follow what you say and try to be a Guard more often to be a good role model
 
Another change I would make is making the cts take warden as soon as possible, I've seen the warden slot will stay open for over a minute before, so I believe we need to enforce that rule a bit more.

Just make it automatically select a warden after a certain time if people don't take it themselves.
 
All comments are true and very real. In my opinion I would only add the fact that Umbrella is a horrible map that prevents CTs from doing anything useful and should be removed from the roster.
 
The reason CTs have to have a lead is so they have some goal to achieve otherwise its on the dot warday. As it stands now CTs rarely can ever lead unless they have ESEA players on their team or none on T.

If a CT is being trigger happy and killing you or other Ts for twitching in the cell block yell at them or revoke them as they are ruining the fun of others and causing them to leave.

Try to learn the maps and how to move around them before screaming a map is trash.

Stop jumping out of CT areas. Why do you think that I rarely get knived? I stay up in safety and when I do it’s because a sneaky T waits and hides.

Learn to think on your own and dont rely on your teammates to compensate your weaknesses.

Learn as a team to rebel as Ts or prevent rebellions as CTs.

Expect to die as a T when you and your teammates try to rebel together and fail as it happens a lot and that’s okay to not win every round.

Learn to actually read what I post and repost everytime theres a jail thread asking for advice as a CT or T. Ive been doing this for 9 years, longer than some of you have been gaming.
