Hey all, I just want to start by saying how much I appreciate the work TeamMuppet, Flo, and everyone involved put into running this server. In my view, it’s by far the best place to play ET. Everything below is simply a suggestion from a regular player who enjoys the server and wants to contribute something constructive. Over the past few months I’ve noticed that the map voting pool often includes a lot of new or lesser known maps, while the most popular ones only appear every fifteen or sixteen games. As i understand it, the server currently only allows the same maps to be played once a 15 map cycle is completed. As a result, favourites like Erden and Delivery etc show up far less often than many players would like. This can be very frustrating... especially if you have an absolute favourite and miss it. I understand the intention behind encouraging variety and giving new maps a chance... it keeps things fresh. At the same time, I think there might be room for a small adjustment that still respects that goal.... allow the most popular maps to appear slightly more frequently in the voting pool. These maps are popular for a reason... they are balanced, fun, and attract players. Allowing them to be voted on more frequently would make the rotation feel more satisfying for the majority of players, while still keeping space for new maps. To help TM think about this, I’ve set up a community poll where each player can vote for their top five maps. The maps that receive the most support would be an indication to TM about which maps could, if they were so inclined, get special treatment. Meaning they could reappear sooner in the rotation, for example by reducing g_minMapAge for those maps only. I spoke briefly with Flo about my frustrations with the current config and he mentioned how difficult it is to please both sides. Some players want more new maps while others prefer the classics. This suggestion aims to give both groups a fairer system. Please vote below for your top five maps. It will also be interesting to see if there are clear favourites. Pick the 5 maps you enjoy the most. The poll contains all 32 maps currently on the server. You can vote for up to 5. Vote here: https://strawpoll.com/e7ZJaMY0Gg3 Feel free to discuss your choices in the thread too. Thanks in advancce for taking part. The more votes we get, the more informed TM can be about what maps people actually want to play. Hopefully, our friends at TM will consider allowing these maps to come up more often in the map pool selection. Cheers Danimal

Salut les amis 🥰 Teammuppet est vraiment mon serveur préféré 🤩 Vous me connaissez sous le Blase de oO0KUT0Oo ou oO0ups Je ne suis pas un très bon joueur, comme la plupart d’entre vous qui performait de fou 🤪 Je suis Handicapé de m’a main droite celle que j’utilise pour la souris 😅 Donc oui souvent je joue avec la MG et le Mortier dû à mon handicap et je comprends que beaucoup d’entre vous m’aime pas ! Beaucoup me pousse ou me snobe les munitions 😅 Mais je fais toujours de mon mieux pour protéger vos arrières. 💥 Je joue énormément en défense dû à mon handicap car main droite me permet pas de courir après les méchants 😅🤣😂 Mais je tiens à remercier tous les joueurs qui me soutiennent en munitions et médical. Hello friends 🥰 Teammuppet is really my favorite server 🤩 You know me under the name oO0KUT0Oo or oO0ups I’m not a very good player, like most of you who performed insanely 🤪 I am disabled in my right hand, the one I use for the mouse 😅 So yes, I often play with the MG and the Mortar due to my disability, and I understand that many of you don’t like me! Many push me or snub my ammo 😅 But I always do my best to cover your backs. 💥 I play a lot on defense due to my disability because my right hand doesn’t allow me to chase the bad guys 😅🤣😂 But I want to thank all the players who support me with ammo and medical supplies.

Hey everyone, I’d like to bring up something that has been bothering me (and I’m sure others too): the SR (Skill Rating) system on ETL1. In theory, SR sounds like a good idea. Reward players for winning, give a sense of progression, maybe even improve matchmaking. But in practice, it’s doing the exact opposite and is actively harming the gameplay experience. Here are some of the main issues I’ve noticed: Team switching to protect SR Players constantly switch to the stronger team just to avoid losing SR. This completely breaks team balance and makes matches feel one-sided before they even properly start. Players that get auto-switched move to spec or simply rejoin the other team. Leaving before the match ends A lot of players leave right before a loss is inevitable, just to avoid a SR penalty. This ruins the match for everyone else and leads to incomplete or uncompetitive rounds. Focus on SR over gameplay Instead of playing for fun, teamwork, or objectives, people are playing for SR. You see selfish behavior like stat-padding, avoiding risky plays, or not supporting teammates if it might hurt their rating. Discourages fair competition Rather than encouraging players to improve, SR promotes avoiding losses at all costs. That means fewer players stick through tough matches or try to turn a game around. New players get punished Less experienced players end up with low SR and get stuck there. It can be frustrating and discouraging, especially when they’re matched against stacked teams. Toxicity increases When SR is on the line, people take losses more personally. This leads to blame, arguments, and generally worse vibes on the server. Doesn’t reflect actual skill Winning or losing in a team-based game doesn’t always represent individual performance. A good player can lose SR simply because their team was unbalanced. ET has always been at its best when people just jump in, play, and enjoy the game without worrying about rankings or penalties. The current system pushes players toward selfish and unfair behavior instead of teamwork and fun. What do you guys think? Tl;dr: Remove SR, it improves the game.

🎆 Happy New Year, Muppets! 🎆 Wishing you all a year filled with epic wins, legendary plays and endless fun together!

You certainly did signal something. Anger management issues. This is not how normal grownups start a conversation.

I don't like the way you try to put Goga in a bad light like that. He is one of the most wise and calm member we have. In the opposite, you are someone who have had trouble with a lot, if not all, the TM members crew. For teamkilling on purpose, for insulting, for harassing, for spamming votekicking, and so on. Take this reply as a formal warning for yourself, I don't want to hear from you anymore. Just play the game and respect our rules and our crew.

Hello, for the custom config, I will check again how to enable custom votes to load different configs. In the meantime, there is still the wolfadmin command that was done for that: !loadconfig [3|9] to switch between the two different campaign configs installed on this server. The default is 3x3 and is always revert at server restart (everydays at 05:30AM). As for shuffle and balance stuff, I just installed on this server the same custom LUA we made on main server: - checks at each intermission, after 15sec elapsed - compares overall XP per team and winner of the match to decide whether to shuffle teams or not. Trigger is >40% difference for winning team. Hope this will help!

Hey evercore! It was the specific message you posted - "yard you never fucking heal you jew". "Jew" has nothing to do with the fact that he's not healing. I also understand that yard had also had a couple of warnings within the same 1-2 days. You can always initiate a kick-vote in situations like this and if others feel the same way you do, the player will likely get kicked. I'm usually quite patient (thx for backing me up on this, mxtor) and usually do post messages instead of warning or muting or kicking - but as Ande also pointed out, this kind of language is not warranted. We want all players to feel welcome on the server and such wording can easily put someone off. Hope you understand - I've otherwise seen you play well on the server and a few mins of cooldown is sometimes all we need.

TM is 24 years at this year. @MiniMuppet and @MrMuppet is still around

Hello KUT! Thx for introducing yourself to Muppets Its always good to have heavy weapon operator like you bcs you are great support to your team. As Rosen wrote - play as you wish, good fun is what server is about. I know ppl disrepect HW players in many ways, i hate pushers so much See you on server, MG hungry! PS: gimme back my freaking MG!!! 🤪

Apology accepted 🤝 hope to see you on the field so we can work together and rock it as a team or give each other a good old fashioned gun fight as opponents cheers

I take a look if i can compound panzerwar and crazygravity in one vote. And make it end at map ending.

Hello, thought I'd reintroduce myself again, and a lot would remember me using the alias valk. That alias is no longer in use and now go by the name of boo, but you can also call me Ryan. I am 29 years old and soon to be 30 in April. Since the last time I was introducing myself here, I have had a baby, and had a boy, named Oliver, he's nearly a year and a half and one of the reasons why I use boo is because he loves me calling him that. I also started doing jiu jitsu a number of weeks ago and really like going to every class, three times per week. Enjoy the server a lot, and find myself mainly at ETL1 a lot. Thanks for the read, and kind regards, boo.

Server is now updated. Should not give false gamehack alerts. Did also give it to me when joined earlier. Inforerces contacted me after hes ban so reminded him about rules and respecting our members. Hes unbanned today. Let me know if he still causes problems. If there is doubts about cheating, we need demo from it.

Modified on OM server: - server snaps from 20 to 40 - geoIP = 1 - rate from 25-45k to 90k - cl_maxpackets range between 100 and 125 - voting percent from 60% to 50% - allowing nextmap vote option - externalized some scripts outside gameserver to reduce lags

Even I have time to play... Come back

Yep! That was the level Beginners had some months ago, then some of our usual players didn't come back, or we could see them from time to time... Maybe they are coming back since some spawncampers have been banned... I hope the server will keep this number of players now

You were muted by myself, the random admin, because you insulted one of our TM member. Please read our rules, don't expect anything good from TM crew if you insult one of us.

I don't know man. For someone who doesn't like us and don't wanna be here - you are still here. You know all the inside-outs of beeing TM member and enforcing rules, the way different members/admins enforce them (some more strict, some more lenient) and how this is a job to benefit a community. So if you wanna be in TM server you got to behave and understand that while you were TM member, you were privileged a bit more because we could have talks with you in member section of the discord hub and you were sometimes forgiven more than regular guest would have. But leaving TM and closing the door behind you with a band and constantly burning all the bridges - you are just becoming more and more someone who just do not fit in the server. There are more servers to go to, there are other communities to join or to start so if we are such communist to you then you should start searching new home elsewhere. But it never is, my friend. Never with you. Sad. But you are still getting replies and not shown the door, so there is still a chance to fix your shit and behave. Don't f*ck it up. Happy halloween weekend to you.

Stypek I believe you can understand TM are players before being admins and we can’t see everything everytime…I didn’t witness the situation that led to your ban but I can guess that you asked a nasty way, as often with you, and that you didn’t get listened mainly due to that. And well, communists, mushrooms, Russia, Poland, voting system or whatever else you are rambling about on a daily basis we just don’t care. It’s a video game, not a politic debate area, I’m sure there are places dedicated for such discussions. In short, I would advise not to go further in your adjectives now or situation could only worsen, we don’t have time nor energy to debate for days.

Hi All! @Ande Hello Ande! Could you please add Capuzzo to Beginners please? Map: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/gla0g6wr2t8tq5j3zfdsw/capuzzo_final.zip?rlkey=364d0a66qyr2ns4mujmprd75n&dl=0 waypoints: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/zdvdvgmgfpwaz104t2d42/capuzzo_waypoints_2018.zip?rlkey=e5ymjkao8678bfk3zvxd8pmgy&dl=0 Thanks! capuzzo_waypoints_2018.zip

Bonsoir, je viens de me faire ban du serveur mais je n'ai pas compris pourquoi. Je jouais sur le ETLegacy et mon pseudo est Cobra. Je n'utilise pas de VPN ni de cheat quelconque. j'espère que vous supprimez ce ban, ou au moins me dire ce qui ne va pas. Merci d'avance et bonne soirée.

I returned to play ET after some years of pause. This game can't be removed forever once you played it so much time. That's why I am back in action. It's nice to see an active community like TM after so many years from the Wolfenstein:ET release! Relaxed admins and good atmosphere in the server, this is very amazing. You may have encountered me in the game, and noticed how bad I play lol, but that's the game; we have pro's and nob's like me 😇 haha. However I like to play medic and sometimes other dangerous classes like flamethrower or rifle nade engineer, in such last cases I may TK someone for mistake 🤦‍♂️, please forgive me! What count is to help the team and do some teamork. See you in game, and don't take me too serious if I write some stupid things in chat 🤡, I like to joke in chat too. See you mate's and GL against me! LOL 😅

Hi everyone, Jess's idea is great. If it could be implemented, it would be a huge plus for the server in my opinion. Your character can feign death and appear dead when you pass them. When the enemy passes you, you can get up and backrape them However you can also be killed while doing this. When plying dead you can only look, nothing else so you are easy target...good way to learn ppl to gib enemy This might seem annoying at first, but it opens up a lot of new tactical possibilities for the map, and it's also pretty damn fun. Jessica i know haters will hate and they won't vote for it but let's do it anyways to try it at least...!

is this THE original Team Muppet (TM) back from the Black Hawk Down (mainly) and CSS days of the early noughties??? Main guy that ran it was Kermit (obviously, I guess) and we we had the main guys as Gonzo, Big Bird, Scooter etc. Miss piggy was Kermit's lass I think? UK based team. I was Wolfy, one of the starters in competitive games. M4/M204 freak, left leaning corners. It's been so long I have no idea if any of the OG's are around - but I hope so, looking to re-connect.

I absolutele disagree with that. Most of us have played this game for so long, and u basically play the 10-15 maps all over again. I always vote for new maps and enjoy playing them much more. As it is, new maps gets rarely played and your suggestion would mean that they get almost never played. Fraggers and spammers wanna always push for meatgrinder maps, to get easy kills in their camp spots and known spawn timings, witch i absolutely despise. Id go as far as saying u shoud push less played maps, when votes come out as equals.

Voted. Thanks for the suggestion!

Voted Dany! Hope it will help somehow, however this topic is really confusing, the main problem is ppl don't want play new maps bcs they don't want to learn them. Simply It is easier to play same maps all over again day by day (that is why i play less last months) New maps that should stay in rotation like regular maps in my opinion are: - Haemar - Operation - Dubrovnik - Oasi

Thanks for feedback and improvement suggestion! Idea itself is understandable. But it should be way that it doesnt displace "new maps" too much. Then it also can become unfun with all same maps over again.

While I believe this is a good idea, I’m not convinced that it will still satisfy the “play new maps” criteria. If those maps are indeed so popular, chances are they will always be voted over the “new maps”. Nonetheless worth a try if technically feasible IMO!

Hello, could you allow me on your servers plz ? i dont use any vpn connexion but the server kick or ban me. My nick name is : Gandalf_Le_Gris IP : 91.86.139.XXX Provider : Orange Belgium SA Thank in advance, Xavier

Yeah ive noticed that too. What also is a big issue that players just join the spec after a shuffle and wait to join Allies or axis agian, which makes the shuffle just usless.

I agree Wontkins raised some valid points. The rules are hard to enforce to keep the teams fair because of SR, when a player leaves in warmup ( because of win probablity to avoid losing SR ) the server shuffled before that and it makes teams uneven from the start. Removing SR will make the !shufflebysr command redundant, I'd suggest then something like !shufflebywr (winrate) based on most matches played.

Cheater confirmed. Thanks for reporting. He is now banned on all our servers.

Thanks for the reintro! Great to know you ! Have fun!

SR should not be considered as threshold value in any case, because players are not getting it doing individual things etc, but it is based on team win or lose(and you can stack winning team all the time, and with fresh guid you can get 7 SR in few hours). Using this value in any condition can cause that some players will never reach threshold value and will never be able to play any HW. In my opinion Flo idea is much better, about checking how many times player was playing on our server, it will separate new joiners from regular players. Unfortunately there is no any reliable value which can be considered that player should be worthy to use HW. I have another idea but I don’t know if this is achievable, we have this stats site with data like tdg etc, @Flo can we use the data from this statistics or it will to be slow?

Total XP is reset if someone collects a Prestige point. SR is vicious because not very accurate ELO computation, it is mainly in favor of stackers. This approach is bit "elitist" and we would block non-stackers or non-pro players from using weapons which are a full part of the game. Maybe something around wolfadmin data could fit, e.g you need to be seen at least 20 times on server before being allowed to use heavy weapon, so that you get time to know maps, rules, how people play on this big server and so on.

im not sure about basing it to SR only. someone who always joins weaker team never gains sr. But your point is good

But how can a player get experience if he is not playing? On another server there is a rule that someone can only play with panzer for 3 maps. (The player has to tell in front of map how often he has used panzer.)

Hey, what Danimal mentioned here is sth I was thinking about fev times, for example flamer is HW that should be used really really carefully so you don't TK half of your team In my opinion this idea is good to discuss and maybe try.

Hello, what could be done is the following: - for spawn protection, implement the script running on main ETL server, but: it also monitors team damage (and warns/kick) / it prevents mortar and MG42 to be used from heavy-protected zones / and not all maps are covered, e.g railgun or fueldump are not supported (yet), we would need to work on these to support the maps - server slots: no opinion on my side, let's wait opinion from other admins - next map: this option is available from wolfadmin level 10 and above, but we could allow the voting option. For server lag, I think it's mainly due to this server still running in 20 snaps whereas our main server now supports 40 snaps and 90k rate, which could be a big difference for people used to this smoothness. I think we could apply such configuration on this gameserver too without too much risk.

nice to see you back :)

@C64 you are sooo young, this was my first computer :

Yes,i thought so, well i expect to see you soon to game Fox 🙂

Hi! Nice to meet you Not sure have i seen you at server allready. A lot old folks still playing this game! Maybe it makes this game special.

Again today almost full 😍 Sadly i can't join, still in Czech Republic aaah, don't have my gear to game

I've seen enough. Banned on the forum too

I think the server would indeed be better off without a player like you. Your wish will be granted, and you will be banned.

Sty who r U, I don't recognize this nickname, In regards to spawnkill, each admin will react when see one, it is not easy to be there always on time, however calling admins communists is good reason for BAN, you should know that. When You see player spawnkilling and no reaction from admin on server pls make a topic here, well gonna solve it. How can You compare wearing ukrainian flag on tag to calling ppl communists?? I see no connection here...
