Hey guys, I just finished making a mod in order to speed up play for bball.
Essentially it works like this:
To join the game, type !add in chat, like mge. This will add you to a queue, and automatically assign you to a team when its your turn to play. To remove yourself from the queue or a game, just type !remove. The mod auto-balances teams to keep them even, and doesn't allow 2v1 situations. When a team wins the match, which is currently set to 10 caps, the losing team is sent to the end of the queue, and moved to spectator. The winning team is then split, and fresh players are brought in from the top of the queue.
IMO this makes for a much nicer bball experience, no more waiting around hoping people will let you play, or having to beg for a slot.
I have an NA server running the mod here or at:
connect bball.crabdance.com:27015
EU server running the mod here or at:
connect eubball.crabdance.com:27015
Both EU and NA servers may not stay up forever, but will be up for at least the next month.
In addition, this Saturday from 8pm-12am EST - ool and I are running a bball event (NA Server) to get people used to the new mode. Prizes (keys) for the top 3 win streaks of the night. see the bball.tf discord for more details.

Oh yeah, you can find more information about the mod, including the source code and the compiled plugin on my github.

I agree, its pretty terrible. This mod doesn't affect how the game is played at all, its only manages team balance.

This is not an mge mod. This is a mod for bball servers that allows the simplicity of mge, while still being a normal ctf server. Try it out before criticizing it like that....
