Can't log-in...

[MikeFiend]

So right now I can't log into the server as a spectator...says the server is "full". I also can't log in as a player and go spectator...says "You cannot become a spectator at this time"...I just think that's kind of weird. Is it settings or something? As always, really clueless...

Pretty sure it just means its totally full - 2 spec slots and whatever the limit for players in-game is.

Thx for the input WD as always bro! What makes me think it is weird is that it happened twice tonight when only 8 slots were filled and then again with 10. That's 4 and 5 for each team. Full would be 16 slots total. Not only that, but being a CTC dude, I get in way past the 16 full limitation. The funniest thing was, after I repeatedly tried to log in and failed, I was able to gain access after I logged off of the current map. I'm not ruling out shenanigans with my rig either...registry prompts have kicked me off of the server a couple of times this last few months for no reason...

roll back the h4x Mike . [or] what I think he is saying is there are player slots and spec slots , the server can be half full and
you still can be spec rejected . Make less sense .?...

The server is set up for 18 regular slots and 2 spec slots. Even if the server only has 8 peeps on, if both spec slots are taken, you can't go spec. At one point I wanted 4 spec slots, but I didn't think it was worth the extra load on the server. So I'm reiterating what WD and Mud already said.

I didn't even get it the first time around...now I do. Must have been full spec slots then. Learn something new everyday...lol
