Making AFM Great Again Continued (Serious Post)

[Slim Shady]

I dont give a shit about admin. I do give a shit about the following:

Expanding player base
Improving mod
Events (Drafts, Tournaments etc...)

How? Glad you asked...

Expanding Player Base:

[Phase 1: Infrastructure]
Social media is the way. An official youtube channel with more content than we currently have. An official twitter, facebook and instagram with a person or two to run them. Just posting our new vids from youtube and shit like that. Small posts and tweets every day or so. We already have forums, so maybe we don't need a reddit, but we can promote the mod on relevant subreddits. Also, we need a Teamspeak sort of server. I will buy, its cheap as fuck.

[Phase 2: Expansion]
A new CS:GO Mod called Counterstrike: Classic Offensive just came out. Its basically for 1.6 players who think GO sucks because of the movement and gun mechanics. We can post there advertising our mod. We can post on the CS:GO and CS 1.6 Reddits advertising our mod. We would have to work together to upvote it and get some more eyes on it. This is phase 2 because we want our social media to be up and running first to impress people.

Improving Mod

Anticheat is #1 priority, especially with more randoms joining our server learning to play. Make it VERY EVIDENT that scripting is against the rules and that any violator will be banned.

I think hiring Beaver to update the teams available would be great. Updating rosters and adding a couple more teams. Also, updating the overtime rules.

A system where people who are registered at the forums have one static name whenever they join the server. They can change any time on the forums in the settings. Also, an incentive to join the forums. Maybe hook privileges between games or some shit. Colored text when they type.. I don't know... just an incentive to get on forums that a random will not have. Plus incentives for people who donate like we have now.

A pug server will be needed. If we have a constant flow of randoms in the server, we can't just start a pug and have 8 people spectating. I'm sure we can fund it. Its cheap.

Events


Now with more players in server and more people on forums, its time to get a tourney going. Draft, ratings... the whole thing.

Other events, I dont know. Anyone got any ideas?

Ideas:

Tutorial videos on Youtube channel. I know its a lot to ask for someone to make tutorial videos, but its a one time thing that will last forever on youtube.

Highlight videos if anyone is good or interested in making them.

Awards for player with highest rating each month. Skin, badge on his helmet... whatever.

Special skins for people who donate and admins.

Final Note: If we can get 300 players to check out the mod (very modest estimate) and of those 300 players, only 10% keep playing (another modest estimate) we will have 30 new players in the server regularly. 30 players is a tournament in itself.

I'm sure you guys have some ideas. Reply with them here.

P.S.: Messi supported me in the other thread... I guess this is what Donald Trump felt like when he was endorsed by the KKK.
