It wasn't very consistent, no. The asterisk was on the right in CTF and DCTF, but on the left in JB and TLRS.
Looks good!

- Spectator mode and roast/death removal and ping ms in grey is very satisfying. I don't miss the spectating symbol whatsoever and it's one of those changes that seem so simple and better.
- The green cogs upon seeing it I'm not sure about my own idea. The icons do not overlap like the 'A' did and it kind of resembles a flower more than a cog maybe? I'm questioning if a player less familiair with the icons can destillate what those UI icons are meant for. Not saying the icon looks bad, there is also not a lot of pixels and room to work with. Maybe a double f9 press should just spell out the full 5-character word 'Admin' for full clarity? It's longer, but still a short word and with it it leaves no ambiguity. I'm trying to weigh all the options and I think the clarity of 'Admin' makes sense to me for how little extra it shows, besides since it's moved to a double f9 press tab it wouldn't be held onto regardless.
- I prefer the flag icons to always appear on the right side of the name like it was before. It was consistent when chat, scoreboard and player overhead had the flag/asterisk icon on the right next to the player name. Also doing it like that way stops any misalignment of the word/icon for admins.
- Also because of the flag icons the chatlogger no longer logs the flag carriers chatting. maybe it can log a [Flag]?
