It's not "CrazyDog" or "Crazy Dog", idiots.

Time to try something else:
I'm going to turn off admin immunity, and enable the buddy system.
This will "allow clients to choose a buddy to protect themselves from auto-balance and scramble."
Or, phrased differently "Allow clients to choose buddies so that the plugin will try to auto-balance them together, and not scramble buddies who are on the same team"

I'm not entirely sure how to use it, but if you type "sm_addbuddy" in the console, it should tell you how

I think crazydog's latest suggestion of turning admin immunity off but enabling buddy system is the best way to go.  I, for one, don't mind getting scrambled and think it is only fair that TE members get scrambled along with others on the server.  Wrt system to use, I think points/minute is a much better system since it controls for player skill better than a pure score-based approach.

Separately, thanks crazydog and everyone else for continuing to tweak the settings to ensure we have a great experience on the server.

It worked well last night when we were playing.  It only scrambled the teams a grand total of 2 times in the 2 hours we were playing I believe.  Both of those times were after ridiculous roflstomps of one team. Discostan also asked if anyone had any comments on it after one switch and nobody really seemed to mind.  I think most people don't care if it only happens when there's a really big imbalance.

I'm in agreement with the last two posts.
