A difference I see is that the buoy in icecap can be reached as part of a map secret without admin intervention (i.e.: turning on parachutes). The only way to reach the barrel in sorrento (once it's been shot over and into the water a bit) is with chutes enabled which they aren't by default. With the buoy, zombies have to plan ahead and intercept the orange before it reaches the buoy (or island). In sorrento, a zombie could reach the barrel at any point in the map prior to the nuke and prevent a human from using it, either by staying on it or disturbing the barrel to prevent anyone else from landing on it.

All that said, I think buoy on icecap should be legal and if chutes weren't enabled on sorrento then this and the "safe" water area wouldn't be a problem. Disable chutes on sorrento. That might not make sorrento as much fun to play but fuck sorrento. #harrypotter24_7

This is exactly my thought process regarding the barrel. The barrel has always been a fun joke spot to see if you could land on it. However you have to have chutes to get it and it's a pretty creative and funny way to survive. How ever it was not built into the map like icecap was. We should probably make the round time on sorrento shorter so that when people go the barrel route, they only have to hold up 20 seconds as opposed to 2 full minutes.

If the CT is the last survivor, and is on the barrel while the boats have already left, then are you allowed to slap, slay, or burn? Yes, zombies are still able to try to tag him or her, but he or she is still intentionally delaying.

Btw, chutes are disabled on sorrento. It's up to the admin to enable at round end and deal with barrel delay from chute. Without chute zombies can tag barrelers. The map should be timed with boat end anyhow.

The map should be timed with boat end anyhow.

Well the boats don't go until someone starts the lever so timing it would be difficult.

I forgot... Lol
