de_dust2 (30)
cs_office (20)
de_cbble (20)
de_aztec (25)
de_inferno (30)
de_dust (20)
de_cpl_fire (20)
as_oilrig (15)
de_train (30)
de_westwood(10)
de_nuke (30)
fy_snow (15)
cs_italy (20)
cs_deagle5 (20)
cs_deagle5 & fire are in the air and depend if i get the spawn points to work right. We will also consider adding this version of SK and see if u like it.

scoutzknivez_ym1.rarAs far as SK goes,, this is reported to be the map thats the “most” stable
the map crashes b/c of how the scout is given to the player… or so i read
Also this upcoming Friday/Saturday expect a fun night, where we can test that SK map, and a couple of others i have saved to toss on.
Gonna get this *edited* rolling…. sorry i’ve been a slacker.
de_dust2 (30)
cs_office (20)
de_cbble (20)
de_aztec (25)
de_inferno (30)
de_dust (20)
de_cpl_fire (20)
as_oilrig (15)
de_westwood(10)
de_nuke (30)
fy_snow (15)
de_train (30)
cs_italy (20)
cs_deagle5 (20)
The only thing I edited was to move italy train towards the end that way if people come for snow then want to leave for italy they instead stay for both maps and then have a full load for deag5.
Just a suggestion but otherwise I think this is awesome and you have been doing a good job besides your slight absense.
this was already brought up in another thread, but i dont think we should have 30 minute maps. too long, and all it really does is cycle out all the mediocre players. what happens is the good players stay for all 30 minutes and own and everyone else leaves and gets cycled out with other chumps that dont realize that this map has been playing for so long. oh and i think you should add more maps. its a really good start but i still think it needs to be longer
i could drop the 30s down to 25 mins each. The prob is that some maps are popular enough to warrant 30 mins per map (ie dust2, inferno, etc)
I’m also willing to move *edited* around and add more maps, if you toss some names
I think 25min max on “really good maps” cause sometimes even if ppl are doing well they still want to move onto something else.
The only reason I say 30min is too much is because I really think it is. I don’t want to be on a map for more then 25min, that extra 5min sometimes is the reason I leave.
What if we stole MasterP’s idea and had D2,inferno, and Office at multiple times in the rotation. We could have the maps at shorter durations, have more maps, and more variety?
edit: aka what toran/herbal made a while ago

OMG. THANK YOU.
I just told herbal and he was basically like, “OMG, FINALLY.” He’s been waiting for this day, haha. He’s not even an admin and he put time into making up a rotation for the server. This was back before the summer even started and the server started slowing down.
For anyone who hasn’t seen it before, here’s what I said in my original posting:

Herbal put together a map rotation and he doesn’t visit the forums (although he is registered), so he asked me to post this for him. The numbers in parentheses are the minutes for each map.de_dust2 (30)

de_piranesi (15)

de_dust (20)
de_cbble (20)
de_nuke (20)
Instead of having dust2 repeated a bunch of throughout the rotation, herbal also used inferno, which is also a fairly popular map. He didn’t group any of the less popular maps together and they’re only 15 minutes long, so people wouldn’t have to wait long to get to a better map. I like that he didn’t put the two awp maps one after the other (aztec and militia); dodgeball’s in between. It’s nice to have that break. Scoutz is lowered to 25 minutes. He used 1337 assault instead of the original assault or upc (both too stacked). Prodigy and vertigo were also added in. I know we were talking about putting oilrig back. That would probably fall under the 15 min maps and I’m not sure where in this rotation would be best to put it (and he’s out atm, so I don’t know if he’d be able to answer that question).
What do you guys think? I like it.

Woah Herbal proposed a 27 map rotation? LOL He’s crazy. I like the variety but that rotation is way too long. What’s up with the server crashing so much this month? Maybe the server needs some loving…

herbals rotation is really good with the exception of how long dodgeball is…
edit: I think I said this before in the last thread this rotation was in.
Yeah, he added dodgeball in cuz it was on the rotation at the time. Personally, I’d like it off and replace it with oilrig. <3

How many threads have you started about changing the rotation?

True! But the server might crash a lot if there’s too many maps, no?

I think if there is an unusual amount of maps the server has to load it may *edited* brixxxx but I think it should be fine.
Well Update: I’m having a small issue with updating the rotation so once I get that fixed, the rotation will be one that was up before i suggested the massive herbal one.
I know this isn’t the uber big one, but its time for some change. Lets get it up, and then we can tweak the monsta rotation and get that into play. Just a few of the maps on it i don’t think would bode well with the people, and other maps that I think would be sexy to add (like oilrig/westwood)
After playing the new map rotation this week, I have a couple of comments. I like this new rotation for the most part (especially the additions of cs_italy and cs_deagle5). However, I think de_cbble should be replaced with another map. That map is so boring! =(
Show some love for: de_chateau, de_survivor, de_prodigy, de_cpl_fire, de_forge(remake of cbble)
I think any of those maps would replace de_cbble well!
