== Banner Cvars ==
b_banners (default:0)
Defines the number of banners you would like displayed in rotation. The default value of 0 disables banners altogether. (valid values: 0-999)

b_banner<n> (default: not set)
Define the banner text, where n is 1 to whatever number you set b_banners to. For example, you could set b_banners to 2 and use the following commands to define the banner text:
set b_banner1 "This is the first banner"
set b_banner2 "This is the second banner"

b_bannerlocation (default: 128)
Defines the locations where banners are printed add together the following values:
8 - player chat area
16 - left popup area (not recommended)
32 - centered above the chat area
64 - console only
128 - banner area (recommended).
For compatibility, the old-style locations (from 0-4) are also supported. The client defaults to b_logbanners 1, which effectively adds 64 to the locations list if it's not already present, so adding 64 isn't necessary unless you want to force the messages to be logged to the console.

b_bannertime (default: 0)
The time in seconds between the display of banners
