The traditional CS currency system has been replaced. When a new user enters the server they are given 1 BLC to get started. The server supports the depositing and withdrawal of Blakecoins. Blakecoins deposited are placed into the players wallet in the game. Players may set a BLC withdrawal address in game, and request withdrawals to that address. There are currently bots running around with fat wallets and low difficulty settings. The bots leave the server when enough players have joined (set to 8 currently). When only 2 players remain alive on oppossing teams dead players are presented with a menu which allows them to bet BLC on which player will win the round. There is also a bounty system, where players can place a BLC bounty on another players head. The person who kills the target first will receive the bounty.
Currently bonuses are given out to players who complete game objectives, such as:
1 BLC bonus for planting the bomb
1 BLC bonus for the bomb exploding
2 BLC bonus for defusing the bomb
A variety of other bonuses are enabled from time to time, such as a bonus for the first,second, and third killer in the round. Round Win bonuses, etc...
When you kill a player you receive 1 BLC, the victim LOSES 1 BLC.
When you kill a player with a headshot you receive 2 BLC, the victim LOSES 2 BLC.
When you kill a player with an HE Grenade you receive 2 BLC, the victim LOSES 2 BLC.
When you kill a player with a knife you receive 3 BLC, the victim LOSES 3 BLC.
If you are killed you LOSE coins per the above. The coins are taken from your wallet balance. You have been warned
Of course, this also opens up the possibility to profit from game play. If you kill a target who's wallet is empty or does not have enough coin to take you will not receive any coin, and they will not lose any coins and will not go negative wallet.
If you see the error in chat:
There was an error loading your wallet, please try re-connecting to the server.
Reconnect to the server and if it still fails, call an admin with the /calladmin command.

Screenshot, Blakecoin logo's added to a few maps. Some original BLC logos and some by bzyzny (nice work).
Please note, no coins are actually stored on the server at that IP
You can open the console by pressing ~. The command to bind keys is:
bind "key" "action"
So:
bind "b" "say_team /guns"
And/Or:
bind "F10" "say /bounty"
It is possible to vastly improve performance via various client side settings. Inside my steamapps/common/half-life/cstrike directory I have created a file named userconfig.cfg. That file is automatically executed when the game client is run.
gl_vsync "0" //allows for higher then the default fps
fps_max "98.5" //sets your fps in game
cl_updaterate "100" //sets the command rate in game
//BEGIN CODE

unbind "F8"

bind "F8" "dslow"
rate 20000
cl_updaterate 20
cl_cmdrate 20
echo Rates set to 20000-20-20-512K Symmetrical
This sets my rates to 20000-20-20-512K Symmetrical, and also binds the F8 key. Everytime I press F8 a new set of rates are applied, allowing me to test the different values and see which results in the best performance.
Cheating is NOT allowed in this server. Admins have the ability to spectate game play without being visible on the scoreboard. If you require assistance or think someone is cheating use the /calladmin command. In the event a player is not
obviously cheating you may opt to put up 500 Blakecoins and open a cheat resolution case. An admin will *secretly* spectate the accused player and make use of the ability to take screenshots and demo's on the targets client. If the accused player refuses to upload the recorded screenshots, demo's, etc, or if they are otherwise found to be cheating they will be permanently banned and you will receive your 500 BLC back. If after a thorough review by an admin an accused player is not found to be cheating you will forfeit the 500 BLC you paid and the accused player will receive 400 BLC.
