Default Random Crits

I think its time that random crits returned to the TF2 server. How about a poll to decide ?

Random crits have been disabled since christmas (maybe even earlier) as far as i can remember.

I know because i would notice if my rockets were glowing red/blue but they don't thank god.

Ingame vote is another option to add to the poll if you make one imo

Afaik the server settings havent changed since i stepped down, in which case random crits are still set to off.

I can make a poll ? just found the command

The ingame vote used to be annoying and it was too soon after mapchange so everyone didn't get to vote. I added an extra option to disable crits till 11pm, then enable after 11pm.

The problem about removing random crits is that it messes up game balance - games I played were pretty dull and got over-dominated by a few players with personal medics in tow - they got 100% crits off the kritzkrieg and we get 0 % of a crit back.

Random crits add the fun to TF2 imo and make the clan whores moan - two good reasons to bring them back

Time based settings are busted, the server cant tell the time

On a more serious note, may work with random crits setting but it didnt work for the mapcycle change.
