I have a beef. My ping is about 250ms higher than I would like it to be.
Therefore I propose that someone immediately swims across the pacific towing fibre behind them, directly from the server to my house.

Not my place to give an official answer to your question Devil, but I do know we are working on having GTV available...tested the system last night with positive results. Be patient, we'll have that information in plenty of time for the match.

GTV has been tested and is functioning better than expected. We will give out the GTV info prior to the scrim. Most likely in a news post on our main page accompanied by a forum thread.
DankRiders main Concern.
- If yo intend on playing and have not been registered on FSK405's Team Speak you will have to log on prior to the match date to have an FSK405 admin register you with our server.
Team Speak IP: fsk405.com
Log on and idle until a FSK405 admin gives you talking privileges.
Team Speak will be mandatory

But, seriously, you are correct. What is to stop somebody from cheating? It is something we'll be monitoring.

RE: GTV- If I'm not mistaken, that's where the time-delay comes in: to keep people from using it as a cheat tool. Make the delay long enough, and it's a non-issue in any case.

Time delay. Last night i think the value was at 20 seconds. I think the value used during any FTW GTV'd matches is 3-5 minutes. I would suggested 10 minutes just to be sure no campers are exposed or flags are found because of this.

If we leave the flag stand off at 6 minutes, that should be enough time to delay, no?

GTV Stuff:
Full connect instructions to come
Basic Client Connection Overview:
Clients log onto a "GTV Parent/host server", typically staged in the map ut4_dressingroom. The staging room will allow clients to connect to the camera they wish to watch. GTV admins have the ability to create a Camera on multiple servers all accessible via the one staging room.
(Example)you could be watching "Match A" on "Camera 2" then switch to "Camera 4" thats is set up on "Server B"
GTV Delay:
the time of this delay may not be such a concern. Saying 3-4 minutes would be more than enough.
Reason: The GTV admin's can RCON in to the match along with the GTV host server looking for similar IP's. In addition most of the players are Superman Admins that have been trusted with the act of keeping the server clean. I will assure the community using GTV as an advantage would be considered hacking and a ban-able offense. Though again most of the players involved are what should be Supermans most valued honest players.
Regardless a valid concern just wanted to note some the GTV's mechanics.

FWIW Truth and I had a hot potato time of 3 minutes and an auto return time of 1 minute. Had it been the usual 5 min/2 min pairing our match would have taken longer.

I also hate my ping but I've gotten used to it somewhat :) – what worries me though is the server lag lately, which sometimes makes it impossible even to play just for fun...let alone a competitive match of matches. Will this be fixed til saturday, or am I the only one still having problems? In that case I'd have to check what's wrong with my machine/connection.

Yes, with 2 players 1 minute auto return seems reasonable. However, with 20 players it is too short. If you drop the flag to go hunting for the opposing teams' flag carrier, you need enough time to kill that fucker and get back to your flag drop spot before it vanishes. Yes, a team mate can pick up your dropped flag and cap it, but I usually find myself limping back to where the flag was dropped before a mate can grab it. I needs me some mo time!
