If you have stats on, yes -- I know the stats are useless AS THEY ARE RIGHT NOW, but report them for the server usage. It gets noticed. I have not given up on making a mut to report actual deathball gamestats yet. The next build of Deathball will include server side output of the stats too.I think people are asking about which mods are popular so that when they download them there will be some people online to play with. Back in Nov. I posted the top 20 gametypes based on hours played. Here is the latest listing of the top 30:

The list is a cumulative list since the release of UT2004 so it doesn't necessary show which mods are most popular currently. Older mods have racked up a lot of hours before newer ones have even been released.
BTW, almost 7000 of those Deathball matches were from my pub server alone: http://ut2004stats.epicgames.com/server ... er=6314914 . If everyone pitched in, that would have been a lot higher.
