Poll: Which suggestion sounds good?
Armor Urinals (63%)
Over Time (13%)
Random Events (25%)
Poll has ended (it ran for 14 days). 8 total votes.
Armor:

Would it be possible to have something like a urinal but instead of giving you HP, it gives you armor? I'm not suggesting to replace the urinals but maybe add something that can give Armor? It can also help encourage offense as people know they have a chance of getting healed 100%. Possible places to put it could be Water Spiral, Grates or Middle Spiral?

Over Time:

If the game is tied 0 - 0 or 6 - 6, the round should extend to 5 minutes to determine a winner. First team to cap in over time wins and if no one caps then round ends in tie. I am sure a lot of people would agree for this. Sometimes rounds are very close and exciting and most of these end in a tie when one team seems like they are very close to cap. Imagine a back and fourth round and if one team is down by a cap and someone caps right at the last second and ties the game up, overtime for that round could be very exciting.

Random events:

I am pretty sure Random Events are NOT random. I see 4th of July almost every hour. There are many random events that have not taken place in a long time. What am I trying to say, is there a way to increase the probability or every event having the same odds. Cause odds always seem to favor 4th of July. It's a bit frustrating when you save up 2000 points only to have it do 4th of July for 3 rounds in a row. For the past few weeks I have played on the server a lot and have observed the following random events occuring:

4th of July - Almost every other round
Washing Machine - Every few rounds
Pinball - Every few rounds
Low Gravity - Every few rounds
Steam Powered - Every other day
When water attacks - Every other day
Invisibility - Once every few days
Tron - Few times a month
Others - Once in a bluemoon

    Top ele urinal stays unchanged. Flag room urinal change to armor. No other urinals needed.

The overtime suggestion isn't going to work imho.

Washing Machine and Pinball should be combined into one event.

OMFG! That'd be worse than a "ralphy farts and poisons the server" event...
I got woozy just reading/thinking about it. :/

    Smoke, that's "High Five", and it lasts a lot longer than 10 seconds. EMPs during this event has as much destructive power as nail exploits.

Get rid of the urinal in the elevator and keep the one in the basement. Maybe replace the urinal with the First Aid station from HL1 and for armor have the HEV station and have them separate from each other so it requires a few seconds (or whatever the time is to replenish full health at the urinal) for each station to refill health and armor individually.

Over time for tied games would be a great idea IMO. But 5 minutes is too short. Maybe have it extend to 15 minutes extra and whatever the score is at the end stands as is. Not a big fan of the sudden death type of endgame but maybe have it happen after OT for like 5 more minutes I guess?

I would really like to see some events that are on the website that I haven't seen play out yet (unless they are super rare, glitched or require an admin to activate it). But I do think some have a higher percentage to play out more than others.

    Would it now be possible to consider Armor Urinals now that the vote is over?

    Autumn is fast approaching, meaning the return of the Pumpkins(give armour over time).

Could probably re-skin them for Spring and Summer.... either some sort of flower or a baseball.

Although, I'd love to see Dolly return at some point.
