Ya refresh madness...thats when im about to kill my computer trying to get into a scrum game for an hour of clicking refresh and scroling. Just a thought a timer visible from the "Lobby" sure would be a huge improvement to the game since most people dont leave in the middle of games. Would also be cool to be able to chat in the lobby area to other people, I bet there is 8 other players doing the same thing at the same time..Refresh Madness. Lobby chat, a MUST HAVE.... 3 scrum games instead of 1.Would also be cool to be able to minmize the window to just a chat box (I dont know how any of this would effects bandwidth or any other issues, but I have made many new friends while kicking there ass in scrum sure would be fun to get a game "Oranized" and chat before we joined!!!)

Ha ha! iListen and the appropriate scriptpak will do the same for Mac OS X. There may be other products, but I'm not hunting for it, so I'll let someone else do VersionTrcker, Google and the rest.

Of course, who knows what song all this voice control will play when you're shouting out @!$#@!# at the top of your lungs when someone swipes the scrum from ya... :)

LOL! And I thought I was the only one having to refresh for what seemed like hours to get into a good game. Glad to see I don't suffer alone ;)
Yah, a timer would be good, except if all those trying to get in could see it, there'd be a mad rush when it counts down to 0 to get in!

These days I don't have as much trouble getting in, 'cause -z-'s custom CTF game has dropped off the scene. OT- It's already posted by Cassius in these forums, but I'll ask again- does anyone know what happened to -z- and his Capture the Flag server? It's been MIA for the last couple of days and I'm starting to get withdrawal pains! :(

Sure there would be a mad rush. But with a lobby chat added the 8 people trying to get in could just start there own game

I'm with FP. A lobby not a que to get into a game.
One that shows who is in the lobby wanting to get into a specific game. The ability to chat with those present to set up a new game if necessary.
"This server is full and there are (4) others in the lobby"
Lobby / Cancel
I can already see it.
