i get really annoyed when a public server is loading a new map, the first person in quite often grabs the ball and scores when wait for ready is turned off. whats the chances of having a mode where there is a different stage of readiness, where maybe there is a warm up time for a minute so ppl can connect but the ppl in the server can shoot without scoring (like practice mode in 1.7beta)? then when the time is up everyone and the ball resets and the game starts. i think that would be good.

there is, its called "player press when ready" but most pubs turn it off cause of idlers...

yeah, so thats why i think that the "warm up" thing could work well. even if it is set to something like 30 seconds it would still be helpful.

There's actually a server option to delay the start of the game by X seconds. So the admin can delay the start of the game anyway... just like there's an option to set how long to wait after a level ends before moving onto the next map.

oh i was thinking of warmup too...when i was waitin for other team's players, te flyby on the map is sooo boring
You could add the warmup like in TTM : time-limited or that the game starts when all players are ready. Warmup could be a normal game just without goals but with the "beep" like in trainingcourt
