This is a comparable, but much smaller and different kind of thing.

Take a look at https://docs.tf2pickup.org/docs/about for some history on the tf2pickup project.

indecencyits gonna be a fun month for this to be the centralized new thing for a while until people go back into their hidey hole pug groups

bruh it's a small project meant for quick and good pickups-- nothing too crazy. This is not centralized, we're not competing with your favorite pug provider/league/group. I'd be happy to chat with you more, come on by the website and Discord on launch day to see how the games work.

not sure if this is intentional or not but the ability to add to multiple classes (and specific roles like pocket/roamer at least) would be nice

if the goal is quick pickups you might want to do a similar system from mixchamp (which in turn was inspired by tf2mix) where it will start the game if there are at least 12 people and the right distribution of classes (i.e., more than 2 meds, more than 2 demos, etc. so that it can actually pick the teams randomly and start)

site already feels much more responsive than pugchamp lol hopefully there will not be constant issues of the site going down and timing you out and stuff like that
i dont have much time to pug and dont like joining discords but if there was an online feedback form or something like that you could probably get useful feedback

theres no online feedback form, but there is a discord (to which you hate).

there's a trello/wekan board public I think that has some of these ideas in backlog, but the priority now I assume is getting stuff to work at 100% at all times.

as far as I know, they (the people behind the actual tf2pickup organization) want to have those features when they launch eu pickups, though that's quite a journey I hear.

Seems like you're leaning very heavily on having a competent admin available to run PUGs when people want to play - I'll definitely give this a shot at some point though

As far as the Discord goes, we recently switched it to @mention notifications by default, it's well moderated and people are friendly. But, I'll pass your suggestion along to the TF2Pickup team. I think we can swing a feedback link on the site.

I believe this is a reply to bearodactyl. Yes, the Wekan board that's public is managed by the TF2Pickup guys. To give you some context, these are two guys, who in their free time made a free service that's miles further than what's expected. If you look under the trunk (I encourage you to, it's open-source and well documented), it's an incredibly good system. The broader community has helped knock out a lot of important things from that board as well.

Support those guys if you're impressed: https://ko-fi.com/tf2pickuporg, seriously it's a ton of hard work and an overabundance of free time from really smart people.

Giving this baby another bump. A few things:
- Added 2 more gameservers
-Added RGL configs
-Added all RGL latest-season custom maps
-Discord's up to 100 members now
-Fixed snakewater version serverside bc we had a test game that couldn't go through because of the snake update.

We've also applied and been accepted as an org on RGL's forum and posted there.
