By popular request, we have expanded our TWL group and taken on a second ladder. What that means fellas, is we are in TWO (2) different ladders. Our current one is the 6v6 Domination ladder. As of today (7/1/08) we are also in the 6v6 HQ ladder. Please get signed up for this new ladder so we can get it rolling!! The joining password is the same as Domination ladders, and if you don't remember that, just Xfire Rooster or Woz, your friendly event coordinator :)

No, you didn't blink.. Already a 1.7 patch is out to add to the 1.6 patch which just recently came out.. Here's what IW has to say (nice since they said absolutely nothing about the 1.6 patch...):
NOTES:
- Fixed an exploit that allowed players to access certain console dvars during multi-player matches.
- Fixed a crash that could occur when a Chinatown Sabotage match would go into over-time.
- Fixed a bug where the MP icons (Bomb, Defend, Capture, etc) were always showing up as English regardless of the install language.
*Please note. You must already have installed 1.6 to use 1.7.

Just a few things I wanted to mention, it's been a little while..
First and foremost, I wanted to issue a public notice to anyone here who uses SmartFTP as their FTP transfer application. It's been very popular over the years, mainly because it is/was one of the best "free for home use" FTP programs (there are others) available. As all users of it know, ever so often, it's only quirk was that it would make you download (and/or reinstall if you simply saved the install executable) it once in awhile, presumedly to ensure you were using the latest version. Well this morning, I was greeted with that message. I ran my saved exe installer, only to see the same message again. "Oh, cool, an update", I thought, wondering what new features (and fixes to a few things that didn't work for me) could be in state for this new version. So I clicked on the link provided by SmartFTP which takes you to the downloads section. I selected my version, downloaded it, and installed it, as I am all-too-familiar with. After it installed, it launched (actually, it told me I needed to reboot, which was somewhat unheard of for the ftp application). Instead of being greeted by the usual "You have used SmartFTP for xxx days", I briefly noticed it say "You have 6 days left on your trial". 6 days, what's this?? I quit the app and restarted, sure enough that's what it said.. So I went searching their site (which I noticed no mention of 'By the way, the new version is pay for use for all') until I found a locked thread on their site from someone clearly as aggrevated and confused as I was. The admin responce read basically that it's clearly listed on the purchase link (which you had to click on previously if you were using it for commercial/govt/non-profit use) as well as in a licensing link. He also claims it is mentioned during the install (went through it too fast, after having reinstalled it like 20 times over the years), but nothing looked any different to me..
Anyway, the point of this is.. If you USE this application and you do not feel like it is worth $37 (for generic FTP access, not secure, which is now $50), don't bother installing the 6 day trial "update".. Uninstall it, send a letter to complain to them about their shady tactics, and move on. There are other Free-FTP applications out there.
Update #1: In reply to my post regarding my displeasure and concerns to the people of SmartFTP, they deleted my post and blocked my account from forums access. Mind you, I was respectful and, like another post hidden away, I made it clear that well, pretty like I put it up above.. How mature to just delete the post. Wonder how many hundred/thousand(??) they'll delete before they grow tired of that? FTP is a funny animal. It's something (most) don't use every day, but when you need it, you want it to work - Not find out, Ooo it's six-day trial ware now?? Well SmartFTP delete my post there all you want, this post still stands.
In Other News....
I have no clue what happened with the 101st Skeleton Cowboys match. I logged in this morning and was greeted to a 1/0 win against them. As the forums indicate, TWL shows us for a win (NOT by forfeit) and a loss ("defeated by cKs") on theirs. I can only assume they weren't able to muster up the troops and instead reported a loss and snuck quietly into the sunset. Woz and I would like to thank you all for setting the time for this, and HOPE we can still turn it into a TWL vs. ALL match tonight on the main server. Woz has already challenged another team to keep us up and busy on TWL. Please follow through on the forums and continue to be active :)
Finally, the Main Server is going to be updated to the latest version of the ACE mod (the mod we generally use for our custom maps, fellas). I can't promise any of the 'this weapon doesn't feel right' will be changed, but when the modServer is up, please let me know. There are bug fixes and new features, but a majority of the mod has been rewritten to make it easier for the dev. to add even MORE new, cool stuff to come. And as a result of all this rewriting, I have had to redo the entire configuration. So if something doesn't seem or 'feel' right (just as we tweaked the mod on the SmallServer), xfire me away.. I'll update/change as we go.
cKs COD4 Server Evolves!

Well everyone, we at cKs would like to welcome you to our first salvo of Custom maps.. For at least the time being, our cKs COD4 server is going to be running the traditional (award-winning) ranked maps that it's become so popular for as well as some of the finest custom maps this side of the Badger County. Yup. We've made the evolution. At last you can enjoy some of the best maps out there on your favorite Christian Server :)
In addition to that - the cKs servers custom mod (which has it's own ranking) will now allow to you progress through OUR SERVER from the bottom to the top. This means you'll have to fight for top honors in rank and weapon/perk/custom kit unlocks!
In addition to that, the mod offers SEVERAL new enhancements to the game. That said, please keep in mind that we are still tweaking the server. There's literally over 100 things we can alter now, and we're open to criticizm (not whining), so if you have a comment about the way our server runs during these custom map days, please log in and voice your opinion here in the forums.
The server redirects all downloads to ensure the fastest 'get-in-the-game' experience we can provide. Still, if you'd prefer, we will be making these custom map packs available to you here on our website as well.
The server will be rotating on random days between stock ranked and our custom maps. The small 8 man server will be up from time to time as a testing ground for future mods and maps, as we at cKs personally rate and check each and every map before approving it. If you see the 8-man up, you're more than welcome to join it and voice in about maps (best done on TeamSpeak). Thanks, God Bless, and enjoy the new maps :)
