    For those who don't know, back on MCPVP we had a private match server where teams could face off without worrying about random players. Moderators would setup and spectate the games and ensure that both teams were following the rules. Since the transition to Brawl, there has been no match server, which removes most of the point of having a team.

    Unfortunately, Brawl's systems are not equipped to handle a private server where players receive their ranks. Although I have tried a few ways to work around this, in the end there does not seem to be a thorough solution. I will keep trying, and I'll post here if I make any advances. I'm hesitant to implement some barely functioning solution instead of fixing it full on, as I fear it will become a permanent solution (which would be even worse for teams in the long run).

    The good news is, redoing Brawl's system is somewhere on the road map. As (almost) always, I have no ETA on this. I know it has been a long time without a match server, but I haven't forgotten about it.

    This is the main solution I tried. The problem is, players are routed to that server, and so are instantly kicked. It's not a pleasant experience for them.

    I know WarZ had an Un-routable server, WarZ 20. It was taken down, but while up it was only joinable via /play WarZ 20. Is something like that possible? @NomNuggetNom

    /gl Nom, hopefully you can find a good workaround and we can go back to capping flags in an intense match soon. <3 If any coder can find a way, it's you! xD

    Could there be a feature where anyone outside of the people on the teams could log into the server and spectate? I was thinking of something like the spectating feature that McPVP's version of Trouble in Mineville had, where after you died, you could watch the rest of the game but not actually participate in it.

    Great! Way to update the community on how you're doing, this is the kind of player-staff communication that we need, props on that.

    I'm assuming giving players a temp rank for the server doesnt work out either, right?

    Is the match server still expected to be after CTF is in beta? Which one do you focus your time on (Or atleast which you want to get done before the other)?

    Does Brawl use BungeeCord? I see some potential for this option in that program...

    What about a01, b01, c01, etc because we were expecting all that new CTF traffic... Oh wait, that was hclewks' idea, sorry...

    @NomNuggetNom Can you set up a standalone server for just matches? And use that as a test server when there aren't matches, to test patches to CTF? (call it test.mcctf.com) I know this might be a nonstarter (cough, $$$, cough) but if you can decouple a test server (and the player routing) from the rest of the servers you might be able to make it work.
