i personally prefer the creatorstf servers, i used to frequent their LA servers but they went down and got replaced with "HIL" servers (where the fuck) in which i get worse ping than the chi servers
there are a few problems i've had with uncle dane servers, mostly just the questionable map pool (dustbowl, 5cp and no timelimit powerhouse) and the overly sweaty engies with shortcircuits and/or pyros to make destrying the sentry the least fun exp (makes sense it would happen the most in the uncle dane server), although the class limit is a nice touch
while creatorstf is not perfect either, still feels like a nice balance of having decently skilled pubbers while not feeling like i'm fighting a lan team with 12 ppl in the same room coordinating to make it the sweatiest pub possible while having a decent map pool, although the lack of la servers make me wanna at least give the uncledane SF server a try
