Reserved Slots

[G-Dub]

Is this possible with TF2?

Only reason I ask is if, like last night, my server's full and I can't get in until someone leaves.

Can't you just kick someone out or something? You're anonymous, guiltyness is for t3h physical world!

I know they're possible, but I'd recommend against reserved slots for the HL2net server. They are an absolute pain in the arse. Unless the slot is reserved for you (which for most people it won't be) then it breaks auto-retry - you have to constantly manually refresh the server until you can see that the reserved slot is not the only one free. Don't do it, G~! D:

It would only be for me!

What makes reserved slots awkward is that if there are 23 people on the server and you're not one of them, it makes it quite tough to join since we can't use auto retry. Instead, it will always try to join and then fail saying 'reserved slot'. It's your server and all, so it's cool if you want a reserved slot, but I'm just saying... it might make it awkward eg. in the situation of a HL2.net get together and if the server was full of pub players.
