I just loaded up a game and was looking over the servers. I counted 25 demos playing!! That's three servers almost packed with just demos.
I say: Welcome to the community. I hope you have fun new players...

No it wasn't, because the guy was just standing there next to the goal not moving (typing apparently). So I rammed him and took the flag :) What can I say, he didn't seem to want it...

There should be an instruction screen when you first start a game. (Like in "Crash Bash") Just a quick run down of how to score goals, something about the white dot on the radar. Also include a "never show this again" checkbox for those of us who know.
Right now with all the demos, many don't know what they are doing, what "Scrum" is, or how to score. And mostly they just drive around shooting wondering why they don't get points. Those demos aren't likely to buy.
