Would I be right in guessing that the other fun modes will be tested when the dodgeball deely is working properly?

understatement mate. give it 10-15 minutes of your time when the server is in full flow, and i promise you you'll be hooked

Life?
Sry, had to do it.

dont mad cuz bad

it's air blasting back and fourth.

Yeah it is but there's more to it than that when you take into account the homing of the missiles and the way you can sabotage other players by air-blasting them.

*IMPORTANT*

We're now running a dodgeball extention from a different author. All stability related complaints and all other bugs will need resubmitting if they still excist.

Well then I'm not sure if this applies because of this, or doesn't as of now, but the Tennis map is no fun anymore, the many added rockets are going between the same 4 pyros, and if your one of those four, its pretty intense

The Jane Doe, Dell Connblabla servers have been empty if anyone wants to fill them for a break from dodgeball, add me on steam.

Admins seem to favor the incredible boring maps where
1) you cant reach the other players ( most of the time )
2) rockets spawn later in the game spawn in a way thats its dangerous to get them into play

resulting in incredible yawnfests where you stand around 80% of the time, watching the 4+ player pulk jumping at every incoming rocket or alternatively where you watch someone a minute trying to get a new rocket without dieing himself.

sm_dodgeball_spawninterval = 1.0 - Timer interval the each rocket is spawned on.
sm_dodgeball_autojoin = 1 - Whether or not players should be auto-assigned to a team on join.
sm_dodgeball_criticals = 1 - Enables or disables whether the rockets spawn as criticals. Having this off, the rockets will be mini-crits after a reflect but have no team colour. Nukes are never critical.
sm_dodgeball_weaponparticle = 0 - Particle to apply using attribute 134. 0 (disabled) or 3 are the only decent choices. Requires a reconnect to take affect.
sm_dodgeball_gamedesc = 1 - Sets the game description to "TFDodgeball".
sm_dodgeball_nuke_targetbeep = 1 - When a nuke locks onto a target, a sound is played to the new target if this is set.
sm_dodgeball_nuke_glow = 1 - Makes nukes have the intel/cart glow on them.
sm_dodgeball_nuke_chance = 0.01 - Chance that a rocket being spawned will be a nuke.
sm_dodgeball_dissolve_weapons = 1 - Dissolves weapons on death (as they are useless due to regenerating ammo), looks quite cool.
sm_dodgeball_dissolve_players = 0 - Dissolves players on death, ruins the whole exploding rockets thing. Nukes always dissolve players.
sm_dodgeball_dissolve_delay = 1.0 - Delay before dissolving.
sm_dodgeball_basedamage = 15.0 - Specifies the 'base' damage rockets are spawned with, the standard TF2 calculations happen based on this value, the default allows 3-4 hits before dying.
sm_dodgeball_maxrockets = 10 - Max number of rockets to have spawned at once, 0 disables. The spawning commands above can screw this up.
sm_dodgeball_speedmul = 0.5 - Value that the base rocket speed (1100) is multiplied by.
sm_dodgeball_reflectinc = 0.02 - Percentage(ish) the rocket speed is increased per-airblast.
sm_dodgeball_turnrate = 0.25 - Amount that the rockets can turn each frame.
sm_dodgeball_basedamage_nuke = 500.0 - Specifies the amount of damage nukes do, this isn't the same as regular rockets as nukes are not critical.
sm_dodgeball_maxrockets_nuke = 1 - Max number of nukes to have spawned at once, 0 disables. The spawning commands above can screw this up. If a nuke is going to spawn and this limit is reached, a regular rocket is spawned in it's place (if the rocket count is also below sm_dodgeball_maxrockets).
sm_dodgeball_speedmul_nuke = 0.2 - Value that the base rocket speed (1100) is multiplied by.
sm_dodgeball_reflectinc_nuke = 0.02 - Percentage(ish) the nuke speed is increased per-airblast.
sm_dodgeball_turnrate_nuke = 0.1 - Amount that the nukes can turn each frame.

sm_dodgeball_maxrockets = 10 - Max number of rockets to have spawned at once, 0 disables. The spawning commands above can screw this up.

Truthfully its not that insane...in actual fact it gets pretty dull.

sm_dodgeball_basedamage 300
sm_dodgeball_maxrockets 4

sm_dodgeball_spawninterval 1.5
sm_dodgeball_reflectinc 0.30
sm_dodgeball_basedamage 300
sm_dodgeball_maxrockets 2

What are some real good dodgeball strategies? i am entering a tourney and i really want to win. there is a prize for the winners of this tournament.
