64 player map size, which means 300 tickets but only 16 players per team,  meaning that the tickets go down very slowly enabling the players to end up with higher than usual scores.

Hope this helps

For about the 10000000000000000000 time this has been posted: go to big maps (64) and find one that has like (10-20) in it.

I don't do this(only twice because of servers malfunction)...its very cheap and frowned upon, but isn't everything.... I've done it twice actually because server crashed and waiting for more people, that's why I got a 214 score being commander, then finally everyone showed up when we had 10 tickets left and game over.

EA doesn't frown on it because in order to get the server started you have to wait for people to join and such and they are hoping with people playing it'll eventually get to 64 players, people hate waiting for 'x amount' of players to join.

Yes it is allowed by EA.  The person hosting the server sets how many players are allowed on the map, and also the map size.  EA does not care that you have a 64 player map and only 16 people on it.  They are getting paid for a 16-player server either way.  Should EA have something to stop this.  To be fair they should, but that means if a server is 64-players and runs a 64-player map, they would have to wait for a higher number of players to join before the server starts.  This will cause EA to loose money because everyone would be purchusing 16- or 32-player servers.  Overall, it is one of those things, EA knows about it but has choosen to over look the issue.

These servers are the only way to get awards that require 25+ minutes in game.

It's really not a big deal. Yes in the end people have like 200+ point scores... but the time they spent playing on that ONE game, they could have played 3 regular games, totalling those 200+ points. It evens out.

And for the 100th time, what do you care who gets what e-badge or e-ribbon ?!?!
