Program Description
Now you can have notification when the game is about to restart via a PC speaker (siren) also verbal notification and the game maximizes automatically, never miss the start of a new game.

But I did not stop there, you will also get
Key binding on the fly then you join different maps, for team messages only.
Automatically check AA authentication servers are running.
Automatically check PunkBuster files are up to date.
Holds a list of your favourite servers (easy jump and join)
Holds a list of your favourite TeamSpeak Servers (easy jump and join)
Holds a list of all your buddy’s, and tell you when they are online.
Displays a multitude of graphical information about servers/players online.
Join/Auto-Queue a server, saves clicking connect button.
Master Server Browser, displaying all maps at present, with easy jump and join (100% better than 2.7’s browser at the moment unfortunately).
Notification about Version Updates.

At the end of each game in the round can verbally tell you
You’re Score
You’re Kills
You’re Roe
You’re Ping
Who killed the most in the game
Who scored the most in the game
You’re Fragrate <-- 4 u frag whores
How long you have been playing


And during the game
An alarm timer, just in-case you can only play for an hour or more.
When there are x players still alive in the game, I have mine set to 5
When someone joins/leaves the server, so you can tell your buddy to join.

Option to send your game play to a website so you can see WebPages of analysis data about your online play, and if your Clan use it, a great little weekly competition.
A little support forum to give feedback and suggestions.

This is a handy little tool...been using it for some time now.
