It takes forever for the next map to start, even when people have voted…

Voting system is being worked on at the moment.
Fixing one problem has created another, what problem you ask ?.
That would be people constantly abusing and fudging the vote selection.

Sorry for any problems being encountered along the way at the moment.
We are working on it still, a complete fix solution shouldnt be far away.

At the moment, 75 percent unique IP votes are required to pass selection.
So spamming up the votes is a waste of time, but now the downfall is that
we need almost everyone to vote and yes SPEC’s naf up the system still.

Cheers ๐Ÿ˜Ž

There needs to be a time limit if not all ppl have voted guys,there is a problem if there are AFK’s or ppl fail to vote.

ie Russian player named weresc ,he is russian & I have never seen him vote,language issue?
He doesn’t understand the voting system,when him & myself are the only ones on the server,I keep asking him to vote & he has never voted for a map in all the time I have seen him play.
Perhaps a minimum numbers of players on the server before the 75% rule applies,maybe 4 ppl or more?
Finally, can voting numbers be distorted when the bots are on?

Cheers

It should be reduced to about ~65% because when you look at the numbers needed to set a vote to go to the next map, it is just too high at 75%.
For 15 people playing, you need 11.25 people to vote, aka 12 people need to vote to go to the next map. That is huge, think about how many specs you have and things like that. People were annoyed before because it would skip too quickly because it took such few votes before, but I think 65% is a good number to solve both.
At 65% with 15 people, it takes 9.75 people (10 people) to set the map off. This allows a buffer of 5 people that may not vote or that might be afk in spec and things like that. Unless someone fixes the map vote to not include spectators (which would be the best solution) then a lower number should be taken into consideration to offset those afk specs.

Cheers

There will always be an issue with the % of votes required. 3/4 of players on server is fair in the long run since the map choice will not be skewed as it was before. Certain players should be able to !next if they see that enough votes have been used yet next map was not run.

I thought id try and !next map it since that was the case and for some reason I was given permission to do so lol( Dont take it away from me if this is a mistake pls). I’ll find good use for it.

er… i dont agree. there wasnt b4.

they dev team adjusted it as there was a loop hole some players where using.

other wise it would have been fine so not sure what u mean there.

3/4 of players on server is fair in the long run since the map choice will not be skewed as it was before.

dunno what ur on about there

as for the next map abilities i dunno about that. maybe just coincidence?

Agree completely….65% is a good number for voting, roughly 2/3. 75% is just a bit too high…

Cheers.

I meant in terms of people always saying it needs changing for some reason.

Voting based on 3/4 of players (i.e 75%) is a good percentage value to obtain good map statistics. There were issues with 50% and I would suspect that it would get skewed if you would lower it. Best way would be to obtain 100% of votes but it might make the inbetwee map choice lengthy.

Sorry for the confusion ๐Ÿ™‚

No death, 75% is not good. We would simply lower the percentage than go and hand out !nextmap to people. You wouldn’t seriously think that would be a valid solution did you?

Cheers

Some days I do wish it was back to a rotation :
At least then I could leave when the two or three maps I hated got played. Then come back knowing the rest will be relatively good.
