I couldn't make it due to trouble with my baby, but heard it were really good games.  Some screenshots, anyone? I'll try my best to be there next time, of course.
I'm going to get in touch with BI about the TS changer. I think a recent TS3 server update may have changed something.

they were gg's. without the TS teamchanger, we just picked teams in the usual way.
did three maps (islands, wallsfly, field), 2-1 to hypnos/my team.
it'll be better in future if the teamchanger is working, cos it took a while to sort the teams out, and - as i remarked before - it's inconvenient if someone has to drop or if someone turns up late. if the teamchanger's working then these issues can sort themselves out.

Maybe im missing something, but how would it help in such a case?
|
if someone turns up late, might this not unbalance the team? even if not, might it not give people something to bitch about?
and if someone drops, does the enemy team have to pick someone of roughly equal skill to drop in return?

I sadly had to drop out after the first map, but after later speaking with sKePTiCaL about the matches, we both agreed that the concept of the TeamSpeak Regulator, and the idea for it to be used within lobby wars is a great idea, that there's only one flaw. Using a public server.
Not only do you obtain random players, who upset the balance of the team(s) because:-
1) They tend to not possess the knowledge of how to work as a team (Prime example was on City_Flying, we asked bomb2006 to buy a medium tank, yet there is a MRLS on the field)
2) They do not have TeamSpeak or do not connect which reduces communication drastically and usually upsets, ruins, or delays any potential plans.
The other aspect of this is using open TeamSpeak Channels, which allows random users to easily join a channel and disrupt the game.
The other problem with using a public server, is the capability to donate to other members on your team. It's kind of self explanatory why this is a bad thing.
Hopefully, we can rectify these problems by simply using a private server, or making the TK2 server private when these games are scheduled.

Well this topic is still going on. I have to say I haven't watched much Anime recently (maybe a year or so) the last thing I saw was GITS (for the third time)
Im not too sure whether I just dont enjoy Anime anymore or whether its just I dont have time really to shit and watch it.

The whole concept is still being tested, of course. IMO the event should be half private. This means passwording the server but making the password public. Maybe make the pass "clanwar", like it used to be for all clan servers.
This way people can come and go.

i always thought they should be left open, just so long as there's at least one of us there with the ability to kick people.

Well, there's have been advertised as 'Bi-Weekly Lobby Wars' not 'Bi-Weekly Public Server Meetings'
I just think we should implement the same methods, or at least concepts of lobby wars into these to try and keep it to a competitive level, because, that is the reason lobby wars are what they are. To keep that competitive edge alive, as you kindly pointed out, Clanwars.cc hasn't exactly taken off recently...
I only posted my opinion and idea, because in my eyes it would benefit these types of games, i'm all for letting new comers attend, but let them come through the 'official' route by joining the TeamSpeak Server, getting involved in these games and hopefully becoming regular attendees.
