Zombie [Gametype]

I was just thinking that this game could really use a zombies gametype just for fun. What does everyone else think?

Great, so we call em Gnomes and find a way to make that an animated character model so that the gnome team can play as them, then we give the gnomes (this team starts out with only one player) the magical power to force everyone they manage to kill onto their team.

The round is timed to see how long it takes the gnomes to take over, and the average time for gnome takeover as well as the longest and shortest gnome takeovers are also displayed at the end of the game

So on a 128 person server, this gametype would have 128 rounds?

Not to mention it would take a long time for the zombies to take over 128 people.

I would so play an 128 round game of this.

Hmnn, no not 128 rounds, usually the way zombies works is that the last person to be zombified, when they are finally caught becomes the originally zombie in the next round. You could just vote to play zombies and then a few rounds later change to another gametype, or you could set up a dedicated zombies server >: ).

Edit: WAIT!!! 128 people!?!?!? You can do that on one server with more than 3 fps at the same time?!?!?! HAWT!

Impressive, those servers must have been modded, I believe the normal limit is 64 for T2?

Have to admit, I would play a 128 round game too, but it doesn't have to have that many .
