sounds cool :D

Deathball is usually pretty fun. I may actually attend this one.

I may have to attend the American one. I've only checked some of the maps for it not played it against others so this should be fun.

Euro died really early, but Deathball more than made up for it.

Mega deathball success

I guess most of Mega5 is too small for possession?

Possession doesn't seem to be that popular of a mode. There's not that many wads that work well with it either.

As for Deathball, some maps felt quite bad, like the Exophase edit, where the flagroom was now mid.

Nothing wrong with that, IMHO. It's just a little confusing the first few games if you've played a lot of ZDCTF. The backwards-facing spawns turned out to be a problem for me though.

ffffuuuuu- missed it :(
