I was wondering if the points I gathered while I was playing on the test server count for my stats.
P.S. I had a really good time playing this sunday early evening. Good teamwork from all the guys and dolls ofcourse. At one time, one of you guys even drove back to the spawn point to pick me up when I was down..
Great playing I'm proud to be playing on the servers...

I personally love testing new maps. No one for sure (except the map maker) knows the twists and turns and how the map works. I am not the best player in HmS but I do really have fun. I personally do not worry about stats, (mine are terrible any way) so I am in it just for the team play and the working in a squad fashion the map.
As I said in the tribute forum HmS Shadowman does great maps and they are as real as they can get. gotta love it. I would not worry about stats on new maps When they hit the servers then go for the stats. lol

Ofcourse I love playing the maps...I surely don't do it just for the points. I was just wondering. And I must say that you guys do a great job at making new Maps...
I've had tons of fun playing the test server. You'll surely be finding me ther when I catch it on-line.

I only saw that test server once with password. Ok, so what it's only for HmS i thought, but then when I look closer I saw some other people playing on. They were not from HmS. So I'm welcome on it or?

When maps are tested they usually are in password so that ppl HAVE to be on VT to get the password. We do this so that we can get opinions and suggestions. If you come to VT at the time of a test you should be welcome (provided its not already full!!! - lol)
Just remember that we don't use stats in testing, and that very often its only one map tested then the server goes offline - so its not a continuous gaming thing. Also we may have tested these maps already a few times so its possible we might wipe through some parts a little fast as we check other areas. Most maps get tested up to 6 times or more with minor or major changes along the way to make the maps play better - and of course to frustrate you even more - LOL.
