Tbh, it's one of the rare gamemodes I can get behind and say that it'd be good to have to unwind AND wouldn't be extremely hard to add since it literally only goes around 2-3 values and disabling all dispensers distributing weapons other than claymores and kilts ;)

Anyway, it gets my +1, even if you deny it it's one of the easy gamemodes and should be kept into consideration for the future imo.
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.

People like a small change and the round without meta rule and fast-pacing was good since it allowed for more leeway and relaxing gameplay.

You die in normal rounds you just died and you're out if not retrieved. In that gamemode you guys pushed nationalism so people were picking up the ideological jokes and going "I died for Scottland!" etc, so it was much more entertaining for them on that aspect to the least.

It was, hands down, the best round of SS13 I'd ever played.

The only thing that's ever come close was the time I witnessed first hand a Singularity hitching a ride on the escape shuttle back to the Odin on TG Station. That shit was hilarious.

Alright, I couldn't figure how else to point this one out so I will give you an example. Whiskey Outpost is a game mode, it is related to Aliens by the xenomorphs being in play and attacking the marines in a Starship Troopers-esque mode.

Hunter Games, or second game mode, is not related to Aliens at all and is used as a round to relieve tension and break the monotony of the average rounds, as it is intended.

By "MAKE SCOTLAND ROUND PERMANENT ADDITION", it technically is suggesting a new game mode which is against the suggestion rules. It is taking an actual "round" and adding something incredibly silly like the kilts, broadswords, shields, armor, and gladiator helmets. This should be suggested more as an EVENT instead of a game mode.

It is against the suggestion rules, but is incredibly easy to do and requires nothing new.

The only thing that would be new, is the announcement at the start.

Example: The gamemode is Scottish Brigade!(name pending)
The metarush rule is temporarily disabled for the round!

It's already an event, the suggestion wants it to be something that's autonomous, and doesn't require an Admin+ to do. It's fun, easy to do, and people like it. Why not?

Though, at the end of the day, it is Apop and Rahlzel's decision, this is something the community really seems to enjoy.
