Just a quick notice! Later this week, I will be making an update to the group policies / rules. Mostly just cleanup, addition of some things and clarification of others. The reason why I'm saying this ahead of time is to help clarify that this is not in response to any particular event, just something on my to-do list that I am getting to!
Thanks, and have fun! :3
Hello! Last week, we tested a bunch of new maps for rotation! Similar to past events, Rowdy was sitting there collecting notes and feedback for each map we went.
Different however, is that the bar for adding a map to rotation is different, many of them have been added and placed under a "round two" sort of thing. As time goes on, we'll see if people actually do like the map, and if it seems like things don't work out, we'll continue to take in feedback which we can then deliver to the map authors.
There are also a number of maps that will not be added at this time, but could be added down the road! Technically, this can apply to any map, but some stand out more than others!
Without additional delay, here are the maps that have been added to rotation at this time.

Additional notes:
There will be more about these new maps and our future map testing protocols soon, we took in a lot of feedback during the map test and we are cooking up something good!
We will be having a map test event this Thursday, starting at 8:30 PM Eastern on Chocolate. We have a number of maps to test, some of which include new modes!
We may or may not get through them all in one night, any that get missed we will visit in a follow up event afterwards. I encourage folks to join and play with us, or download the maps yourself and try them out on your own time! Unlike other map test events in the past, we're trying something new this time around!
We want to try and collect and condense user feedback as much as possible, so that we as a community can help provide useful and constructive feedback to map authors. I don't have a solid idea in mind of what this means yet, but this will be a learning experience!
If you'd like to download the maps ahead of time you may do so either from the workshop: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3251622860 and click "Subscribe to all" or this link: https://cdn.furfortress.com/downloads/maptest_2024_05_21.zip
Thank you!
Following a temporary removal after the 64 Bit update, Rafmod is back and running on our MvM servers. All missions that require it to be running are back on rotation as well.
Note: The currently release may still have some issues, but so far, no crashes have been found. Please report any issues you find to me and I'll see what I can do about them, otherwise, we'll continue to update the mod as fixes roll in.
Rafmod is a very essential part of our MvM servers! Please consider supporting the person maintaining it, Rafradek!

Heyo! Some of the SCG crew will be at FWA this weekend! You should come say hi if you want! Rowdy says you can poke them on Telegram if you want! @rowedahelicon
Folks who're home are still welcome to visit the servers of course, but if you need admin help, you can still poke Rowdy or use !report to get someone's attention!
Lastly, our MvM server is still not running rafmod again at this time, there are still a few small things to work out, and we don't want to risk the server crashing repeatedly while most of the tech crew is away, thank you for understanding!
