Map Rotation topic #37?

My plan for a map rotation:

– 17 maps

– 3 of the map slots to be rotated biweekly at slot numbers 4, 11, and 16

– Put the more popular maps before and after to encourage people to stay for the new maps introduced.

– In parenthesis are the map times.

Rotation:

Slot1: de_dust2 (25)

Slot2: de_prodigy (20)

Slot3: cs_office (20)

Slot4: BIWEEKLY ROTATOR (15)

Slot5: de_nuke (20)

Slot6: de_cbble (20)

Slot7: awp_map or awp_dust (15) [possibly rotated too]

Slot8: de_train (20)

Slot9: de_chateau (20)

Slot10: de_dust2 (25)

Slot11: BIWEEKLY ROTATOR (15)

Slot12: de_inferno (25)

Slot13: de_dust (20)

Slot14: scoutzknivez (15)

Slot15: de_aztec (20)

Slot16: BIWEEKLY ROTATOR (15)

Slot17: cs_italy (20)

More on the BIWEEKLY ROTATORS:

– These maps can include any type of map, be it official, cs or de, or custom, as, fy, cs, de, aim, etc.

– A thread will be made where you can suggest the map you want for the next cycle.

– If a new map introduced is a hit with the community, it can be added as a new slot or take the place of a map with less support.

This plan is just a draft, so please feel free to make suggestions! But do not discuss maps that can be added as a rotator, thats for a diff thread

and also 3 other maps. maps from old versions of CS or some fy maps and aim maps and 35_hp:) just 3 15 min maps that change bi-weekly?

 

ps big iceworlds gotta go..:S

How quickly were you able to come up with the most unbalanced map rotation ever?

I am not a big fan of de_dust or chateau, chateau is ok , but people always leave when is time to play that map.

dust2 twice??? that is a big nooooo

de_torn and de_piranesi should be added to that rotation.

So exactly what, if anything, is wrong with the current rotation and why cant everyone be a little patient until we get the vote plugin fixed?

best avatars of the history of forever, adams, and that one with kip from napolean dynamite busting a move.

the rot right now is kinda played out, it feels like the only maps played are dust2 office actez inferno and nuke, id like to see some classic maps or more custom maps.

red rotation would work perfect with the exception of two dust2’s played(replace with de_piranesi?)

liam, try to get that votemap plugin goin and that would be end of story no more problems lol

I will get it done but before I do that I’m going to finish the plugin I’m writing which is massive. I’m almost done with it though and I’m seeing light at the end of the tunnel thank god.

There is nothing wrong with it per say, but it could be improved. My rotation is better than a map voting plugin. It still provides flexibility with new maps but doesn’t wander off to maps that aren’t popular just due to it being the best map on the vote.

You didn’t even address the point I made. I find that when shifted to map voting, the server, more than occasionally, ends up on a map that isn’t that good just due to it being the best choice. How does your plugin fix this problem?

My rotation includes the popular maps and then provides flexibility by allowing new maps to be introduced, and otherwise not played, while maintaining the flow of maps that everyone likes.

i think that it depends on the voting system. if it has something that keeps a map from being played within the last 5 or 6 maps, and if the voting system gives out “bad” maps then it is our fault. because we put the maps in the hat so to speak. the voting system can only put an option to vote for maps that we say basicly. if prodigy isn’t in the “hat” then the voting plugin can’t put up prodigy as a vote. get it?

No, you misunderstood me, or I didn’t make myself clear enough. When I say bad, I mean unpopular to the masses. I’m not shoving my opinion down anyone’s throat, I’m merely defending it against map voting, which I feel, along with others, is an inferior system.

The grass is always greener on the other side to some of the people.

The server stays full as is and maps aren’t repeated until EVERYTHING else has been played. Why the *edited* you would want to enable voting I will NEVER understand.
