It’s time we change this up again. I’ve taken your recommendations and put together a rather long mapcycle. You’ll notice that many of the favorites are played multiple times while the new or questionable maps are intermixed.
Note the standard time is 20 minutes unless otherwise indicated. Maps without stats monitoring have been marked as well.
de_dust2
de_tides
de_chateau @ 15
de_contra
cs_office
de_inferno
scoutzknivez3 @ 15 (might not have stats)
de_cpl_mill
de_dust2
de_strata @ 15
de_piranesi
de_nuke @ 10
cs_office
de_dust @ 15
cs_italy @ 15
de_train @ 15
de_tides
de_dust2
de_chateau @ 15
de_contra
de_militia @ 15
cs_deagle5 @ 10 (no stats)
de_dust2
de_losttemple_pro
de_strata @ 15
de_piranesi
de_nuke @ 10
de_prodigy
de_dust2
de_cbble
de_season
de_cpl_fire @ 10
cs_office
cs_compound @ 15
cs_italy @ 15

Interesting mix there, and quite long. Overall, not bad. I voted for. I think this will bring some nice variability to the server again.
I voted kinda for the following reasons:
1) the two instances of tides are too close to each other, being very near both the end and the beginning of the rotation.
2) Why are tides and chateau in that rotation 3 times while proven maps such as cpl_mill, cbble, and season are only in there once?
3) the sequence of dust, italy, train, tides will kill the server
4) no poolday?
5) fire is still here???????
Overall I like the maps in the rotation but I do not like the order of the rotation. I understand what you are doing with the super long rotation but I think it really screws some maps over as they literally will only be played once over about a 13 hour time frame. I think the rotation needs to be shorter.
Not that I care since I am permanently banned from CSS but I’d put prodigy at 10 and cs_militia (not de_militia) at 10 as well. Militia is…yeah…10 mins. Tides is awesome, but I’d go 15 there because newfags like to *edited* about old school maps that used to keep the server packed.
As already mentioned, tides must be reduced to 10-15 minutes…the combo of some maps is wack…needs more mill/inferno and less tides/chateau…and Prod needs 10 minutes as well…But I’m loving the length and diversity…
what’s the deal with the no stats thing of a few? i think keep up stats at all times. and i’d like to see deagle bumped up to at least 15 minutes.

You ran the server long enough that your input will probably always be welcome.

I don’t even play anymore. I haven’t even had it installed for nearly over a year now.
Assuming nothing has changed from when I did play, I’ve got to agree with Nickname’s first two points. Those maps werent particularly popular when I played, except maybe dust kinda, and usually emptied things. And Chateau seemed popular enough, but the last three maps he listed were always popular.
I dunno. I voted kinda.
There are some places that are a little rough, like the dust,italy,train part, but then tides would have low number of people and i love me some low pop tides.
Overall i think it’s pretty good, gets in some maps that different from the standard fare while keeping in the regulars
the real proof is how it plays out on the server, but i’ll try pretty much any map as long as i’m having a good time
I like the variation.
It’s always fun to play different maps.
Two suggestions.
1. Dust2 is Satan’s illigitamite child. Less Plz =P But in all seriousness, I hate that map, haha.
2. More Nuke. One of the best maps around!
i like the choices of maps.
just switch around some like too many prod or train.italy.dust. like others have said.
big ++++ on italy blitz and snow
add more popular maps like mill/season
my biggest concern though, is the possibility of no points on sk3. im positive that there are enough sk3 lovers to keep the server more than half full.
SK3 will most likely continue to have it because it manages to pull in players. I’m still 50/50 on snow, depends on how it performs.
deagle5 is a definate no stats.
yay for sk3!
snow is a classic map. everyone will love it.
and good riddance to deagle. it should be more fun now
I like the diversity. 3 times for Chateau is too much in my opinion. I would say remove one or swap it with something good (like a second nightfever)
Chateau is a fail map if you ask me and I hate it but I have seen it get people into the server at 2 in the morning.
I like the new variety of maps, but I voted only kinda because nightfever and dust, especially dust is fail. With those two removed the rotation looks good. If not removed at least significantly reduced. Dust clears the server every time though one sided maps are better now that you can’t select teams.
Maybe perhaps a bit too much variety.
Some of the maps are known to just clear a server, and generally end up bad.
Compound for example, is quite big, hostages are in an awkward position and just ends up in a camp/sniping fest.
If you’re going to add de_dust, mind as well add i don’t know, cs_assault just so both sides have a stacked map.
Didn’t see de_dust the first time i commented. I vote we get rid of that map from the rotation as well.
I think a lot of people would be happy if there were no stats on SK3, that would be great IMO. I think the rotation has some nice variety, no stats on SK3 FTW.
