Correct. Shipping this particular feature to beta would not get us the

participate” to zero.
Hey Fletch,
Is there a way to opt in to the client side of this feature? It sounds
very interesting and solves the #1 problem I had with quickplay, which
is that it punishes servers that are already empty except when there's a
supply shortage (e.g. immediately after an update). I'd like to play
with it, but it seems like right now only a few randomly-chosen players
get the golden ticket. My #2 issue is that there's no love for nocrits,
but hopefully a lobby system will pave the way to having more knobs for
players to tweak.
Sorry if this was already answered elsewhere, I'm discarding mail not
from Valve employees because the signal-to-noise ratio is regrettably low.
