  Don't do stats. If I ran the server I would have 'fade to black' on but I don't care, as long as kill-cam is off. (how it is now it turns the camera to where your enemy is, still revealing the location).
  
  And no, the server won't be popular outside of shackbattles unless you open it to the public. Even then, I doubt it.
  
  Gun game was fun.
  
  I see no reason to change anything as it is now. Let's just try to get more shackers interested. I'd like to see some more custom maps just for fun--maybe a more direct OMAHA beach map.
