Hi,
Personally I think it's a great idea. Teeworlds needs more gametypes,
gametypes that doesn't conquerer with CTF, DM or TDM. However, if you
(developers) decides to make RACE an official gametype, there should be
some solution for the people who hosts a modificated RACE-server, so they
won't get banned for using reservated gametypes.
Kind regards,
Martin
