Frozen suggested I post here so I'm going to.
Sunday casuals died ages ago, people loved those. I'd like to have something start similar to that.
I feel like beta+ (beta <-> final) maps don't get their 'run for their money' anymore. Once maps are out they seem forgotten now unless they're lucky enough to become popular on another small server, be well-made joke maps (trainsawlaser comes to mind) or become official.
The idea is for in the back of the event to run a few maps that're past gameplay testing and are just after detail. I'll get to why in a moment.

The main thing that sparked this entire thing is a little gift thing earlier today in the rust marathon. Every round people voted for a small optional goal to be completed in-game, and some Secret Saxtons were given away if completed.
Simple as anything. The flaw being that the winner didn't get awarded anything themself; so this would be changed to something like a single secret saxton and an item to them specifically of scaling quality. (metal, hats, maybe a taunt.. etc). The goals were simple things like "get a fan of war kill" or "get a domination with the revolver", but could be extended to anything really.
I'm not the best at explaining out a concept but that's the general gist of it. All it really needs is an event from someone of higher power and for me to put together a nice armada of items to give away, a few beta maps and a list of fun goals for people to achieve.
As with my opening sentence, the plan would be for it to coincide with the timing of the old sunday casuals but that could change.
Open to any suggestions or criticisms.
