I've seen servers who have the map votes disabled from 1-4, and the selection is 5,6,7,8,9, so you can't accidentally "switch weapon vote".  Personally I think the only shit default map is Junction.  Egypt, while not great, mainly suffers people not knowing what the hell they're doing on it.

Also, just a thought, if the current maps are stale, would it be possible to add maps like Obscure. I realise it might empty the server of all but the regulars, but it might be an idea.

We've been down the route of custom maps before and it instantly kills the server - even with fast download.

We've always had a no custom map policy on server 1 and I don't see that changing any time soon.

Also, will have a read through that Sam, looks interesting.

Just curious: Am I the only one who would prefer Harvest Event over the standard version?
If not mayhaps we could add this to the selection.

[CruelCow]

Planned Features:
Runoff voting - until a map has a majority vote (> 50%) it will keep running votes of all the winners.
Vote warning - warns players before a vote begins.

Added vote slot blocking feature. When enabled, the first three vote slots are disabled to prevent accidental votes.
New cvar to control this feature.

I don't really understand the first option... What maps are considered winners?
Slot block would be nice to have, I personally never had a problem just popping out !revote.

Getting nominate back would make me a happy camper.

Creating the file itself probably won't be the big challenge - I can do that if you want - the challenge will be deciding on the weights/min players etc.

Is the ragequit suggestion serious?

I much prefer the event version, but it might be because it helps spies

Pumpkin jumping heavies FTW!

Also we should totally have that map vote mod, saw it or something similar on another server and seemed pretty cool.

Reading this thread I had to check the Clan name, thought it might have been changed to 'Who moans....sulks' 
I realise I'm not the most regular player but I play for enjoyment and rather like a variety of maps - especially those where everyone else doesn't know every last pixel of the map  
There is a fine line between vigorous debate and appearing to be Harry Enfield's Mr. 'You don't want to do it like that'!  Perhaps the healthiest thing is for the Admins to completely ignore this thread and to carry on enjoying playing TF2. 

[Junta]

+1 for Aquila

[scroggage]

The only thing I would change would be to add slot-blocking for 1,2 & 3.

The maps and no of choices and everything are fine, because it's all totally subjective really.

Otherwise agree with the "if it ain't broke..." line of thought as per Deadly et al.

Re: Aquila's line of thought:
Generally speaking it would be nice to hear a little bit less rage and moaning on the server from everyone, it's getting quite bad at the moment. I left earlier partially because of people talking about "playing properly" and class choices... but that's not why I would hop onto a half-full server 1, it's about having a laugh with your game buddies.

[Ringelbeatz]

but that's not why I would hop onto a half-full server 1, it's about telling everyone how AWESOME Minecraft is!!!!

Will not go into this much further, since this is probably not the right spot, but that's only one way to look at it.
I hop onto the server to have some decent games. If that goes together with some laugh, all the better. But if the game turns into a farce (exaggerated, but only a bit) because of that I don't really see the point. Some people might enjoy this, but it often makes me quit. *shrug*

I guess you have a point, but going back to the name of the clan thing... it kinda gets on your nerves if the only voice chat that's going on is saying how your team's not doing things right, or just general serious business...

imo the best way to solve it is a tier system that actually tells you a vote is about to happen because as discussed when a vote occurs i have lost time of the amount of time my vote was used up in a weapon switch as i was too engrossed in what i was doing. Not to mention the vote should be at the start of the round in the time leading up to combat like the walk out to the middle of the map or the setup phase as that way people have time to actually think about what to choose not in the last seconds of a match that could be on a knife edge.

now the tier system should be that you pick lets say 5 maps that it will pick one of those from as your number one choice always and then 4-5 maps randomly based on whatever you decide. that way it guarantees a popular map to vote for but allows people to have an element of choice.


anyway thats my 2 cents and is all my opinion also i have no idea if you are able to put any of that into action but i think it would help.
