Votemaps or Rotation?

the good and bad of both at a glance

Votemap:

good: you get a chance to play a map that you like, along with the rest of the server

bad: people like the same maps, so if you play for a few hr’s you play the same maps over and over

Rotation mapcycle:

good: each map has its fair shair of time, so the less populer maps get played

bad: if a crappy map is in rotation the server dies

fill free to add to my list, i voted for a Votemap as a mapcycle is the “fair” choice, its not the “Fun” choice

be aware this is only for the offical server not gungame…gungame will stay in rotation

 

nodice do you know if there is a way to make votemap where the map being played is not put up for vote

this doesent happen, thats why theirs the extend map option,, however vote map does allow to go from D2, cbbl, D2.. which would still be 10x better than playing a map like cs_747, cs_estate, and so on. i beleave laim wrote a nice program so the past 3 maps or so dont show up in the vote options

Ive been on plenty of servers where after a map has been voted it cant be voted on again for about 5-6+ rounds to prevent always playing dust/dust2/aztec/cbble

Votemap as long as there is a system to not keep playin the same maps over and over =D

Rotation…if it’s not broken don’t fix it.

lol i think a votemap with liam’s program would be a great thing, people get too choose between like 3 official and a custom map or w/e with in my opinion is better then a fixed rotation

we had that, its already been wrote for 1.6 and i think Adam Josey took it off when he was council leader.

noooo! lol, i can see wcu being a 24/7 dust2 server if its votes, i would like to see rotation but say ever couple weeks mix it up with diff maps and diff order. let every map have even play but then switch the order up and add remove maps

it will not be that way we should use liam’s program i like the idea of a custom map in the vote out of 4 it will work fine

Liam hasn’t written a program yet. You need to tell me if you want me to or if you want to find an existing cs1.6 plugin to do it or if you do want me to do it exactly how you want it to work.

when are we going to have votemap? are we waiting for the new server before we make the changes?

I believe that is the plan.

Look at Apps server and how poppulated it is…Do they run a rotation or votemap?

You tell em.

I like votemap personally, but i will be fair and do a vote first…voting ends when i think there are enough votes over the other…thanks for you vote

yes

I like the rotation, for the most part. I think stupid maps like vertigo and chateau should be cut. But oh well.
