First off, I would like to say that I am quite annoyed with the level of skill the general Tremulous populace shows when playing, and I know that I am not the only one whose fun in Tremulous is being seriously killed off by this. As a result, the SatGNU crew has come up with the following idea, and we would like your feedback on it.

From Friday 1800h until Monday 0600h, SatGNU will be closed for the general public. This means you cannot get in without an invitation. An invitation can consists out of one of two things; You either have above level 0 Admin Rights on SatGNU, or you get a personal invitation by one of the SatGNU Server Admins. This means that if you don't have above level 0 Admin Rights, or you haven't got a personal invitation, you will have to find another server to play on during the weekends, which shouldn't be that big of a problem.

We (the SatGNU crew) hope that this will help us in regaining our fun in playing Tremulous, and we hope the players attending these events will feel the same. Now, you might be wondering if you have either level 1 or higher Admin Rights on SatGNU, or if you will be invited, so let's clear that up.

To check if you have the proper Admin Rights, just connect to SatGNU and type /!admintest in the console, it should output either your Admin level, or nothing, since you have no Admin Rights and therefore cannot use the command.
If you do not have Admin Rights on SatGNU, but you do feel like you are a capable Tremulous player, and you would really like to play some Tremulous games without constantly being annoyed by brainless drones ruining your fun in all sorts of manners, hop by #satgnu on QuakeNet IRC, where one of the Ops will be happy to help you out, and check if you indeed have more than 5 braincells, so you can participate.
I would like to add to this that any personal matters do not apply here, meaning that it doesn't matter if we like each other or not, as long as you are a capable Tremulous player, you are welcomed with open arms.

Since there is no known way to only let certain people connect during these hours, we will put a password on the server, which means that if you are eligible to participate in these games, you will have to come to #satgnu on QuakeNET IRC, every Friday around 1800h, when we will give out the password for this week's event.

I hope that these events will become a succes, and I'm looking forward to seeing you all on SatGNU this coming weeked, for stress-free Tremulous gaming, the way it is meant to be.

Yours Truly,
