in the past few months i have relized that deadm isnt as played as it used to be i have also noticed that servers with 24/7 before their name have a much higher attandance rate i was just wondering if you could put this on the deadm server and see if the attandance goes up

The servers with 24/7 on their name just play one map (or one type of map). Ex: dust 24/7. This means they play de_dust 24 hours a day 7 days a week, hence the 24/7.

thats only the ones that have 24/7 (map) i have seen it more and more often now that servers have 24/7 next to their name just because they never shut down at night

I think that the server popularity is just where we want it right now. That and I wouldn't want to taint the DeadM name by adding a bunch of fluff (sorry fluffy, no pun intended) on top of it to make it seem more pleasing to the average users. Do we really want a bunch of people on the server who are only going to join because we have a silly tag in front of the name? I sure don't.

im not sure about you guys but this time (especially during march) of year at school i take a lot of tests so im too tired to be doing anything. i still enjoy deadm but im just not in any kind of mood to play. that might be one reason.

but another thing we can try is to say, "10 free credits the first time you play" because even i was a little discouraged when i saw that every hour i played i got a credit. i mean thats fine but i wanted to try it out. what kept me there was all the courteous people.

An interesting idea, but wouldn't that mean every new player joining would buy a heat seeker? So every time a new player or players would join you would have a heat seeker battle?

Fluff likes the old ways. I remember though back in the 2002s the server was "bangin". 24/7 interesting never thought about that though as oh I to that server.
Credits given to a player right away I wouldn't vote for that even though I don't play at deadm hardly.
