There you go, no terrible customs, no massive customs that are server killers etc etc.
half your skill is in your config
Now your on track with 32 maps for a complete rotation, youve got to follow a couple other rules.
Must include 4 to 6 original maps
Must maintain the top 20 played maps from ongoing current rotation.
Bottom 10 get swapped out for fresh maps.
Dont replace bottom 10 with maps from previous 3 months.

Done.

Done.
Bottom 10 get swapped out for fresh maps.

Why? All ‘new maps’ that have been added recently have been absolutely awful/server killers – why put them in? With the current rotation that I proposed I don’t think you’d need new maps for a long time. Why add crap maps if they’re just that, crap.

I don’t reckon 10 maps should be swapped out, that’s a third of all maps.
For 32 map rotation I reckon bottom 5 or 6 should be swapped out monthly.
It’s a good number because it’s 1 in 6 maps. The map-voting gives 6 maps to vote for.
So theoretically there will be at least 1 new custom map to vote for each time.
Except it doesn’t work exactly like that, with the map-voting system preferring
maps that haven’t been played recently… Works well unless too many unplayed customs.
People don’t play those much (for whatever reason) meaning they are in vote list often…

Well after looking at the server and map stats your off track, all new maps this week were played when the server has been full.
None of the top 10 maps where played durring full server periods 4 times this week.

I really wasn’t in the mood to write up a good maplist. The one blusky posted +1
Not everyone wants to play the same maps over and over blusky. Lots of people like new customs to keep things interesting. Also, lots of customs generally get lots of playing time and a few of the usually played maps don’t end up getting played at all. Besides if there is a big custom map that you hate, don’t vote for it. If it gets played then it means people want to play it, that is what makes the whole map voting thing so good. You can’t just take all the maps you don’t want to play out so they never get played as others want to play them. Just don’t vote for them.
Cheers

That’s complete BS if ever I heard it…..none of the new maps have even got close to full server.
But then again you think full server is 13v13 when it is actually 16v16.
I’ve seen REAL full servers (15v16) recently on Oasis, ET Beach and other popular maps.
I’ve seen 2v3 games on many of the crap new maps…at best they are lucky to reach 13v13. Most the time they are 6v7.
Wasted enough time talking to a brick wall – I refer you to the one and only true indicator. PLAYER NUMBERS.
Watch them fall straight after 24th February when new maps were added – without any input or consultation from anyone.

offcourse the random bads will select a new map to play… but most of them /quit 10 min or so into it… new maps are good… but not when you spend 10 minutes looking for someone. GAMEPLAY > EXPLORING
and you must admit… there hasnt been 1 good custom added really since makalakalaka streets
Ulti has hacked since the down of time, and he is still mad that nobody will be his friend.

The thing is, everyone will want to play the customs once to see what it is about, then they will stop voting if it is crap. However, the stats don’t reflect this, there are some customs that hit high vote numbers because people like to play it. You have only your fellow regulars to blame for maps that go in, not us 🙂
I’m not a fan of many customs, but some surprise me once I play it a bit. We generally have a high number of familiar maps within a rotation to cater to everyone. If you like your same 6 maps over and over, GA is there. If you want to see many of the favourite customs + originals + new customs then that is what we have here and the regs together decide the maps fate.
Having a quick look at the latest map stats, some customs are doing surprisingly well.
Caen_4 has 19 plays
codename_lachs has 12 plays
Those two are just the random customs, other more familar ones have higher plays. To put that in perspective, only goldrush and oasis beat these stats with 18 and 15 plays respectively.
So no matter how much people QQ about the rotation, we go by the stats that are created, not by what one or two people feel would make them pew pew better 😉
Thanks for the donation to skanks bucket though, I hear he has reached a personal best this month 😆
