Lock command #465

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
/lock command -- Locks teams for multiple consecutive rounds. Playing with a 
variety of people is fun, but the flipside is that balance is hard to come by. 
Sometimes it's nice to stick with certain teams for a few rounds to ensure 
competitive play. I can also foresee value in such a tool in future tournaments 
where maintaining the same teams through multiple rounds is a must-have.

Here's how it works: type /lock # where # is the number of rounds the lock is 
intended to last. That way if an admin forgets to remove the lock, it will 
automatically expire after a few rounds. Maybe set default to 5 rounds. /unlock 
immediately terminates the /lock.

When a /lock is in effect, players are not able to switch teams. An admin may 
switch a player's team. (However a team is organized at the end of the round is 
what's remembered by the /lock.) Players who leave and join back later (or who 
were kicked) automatically join the team they were on prior to departure.
