Suggestion to keep server population up

Post by Horrible » Fri Jun 01, 2007 1:03 pm

Considering TV3 seems to get more traffic all together, BUT it loses a lot of people when maps change! Soo my suggestion

1. Vote map at the end of the round
2. Change up the rotation as well


Playing elsewhere I've come across a couple maps that are small, fast paced and really fun.

I agree. I think we should have a map vote on TV3 instead of the rotation. Even if you dont want custom maps on there, at least a random generator of 5 different maps to change things up to what people feel like playing at that time.

I think the rotation should be changed up. over the last week or so people all say they are tired of jagd. I dont know what to put in its place maybe glider or the one with the gas barrells and the tanker dont know the name. Thats the only one that gets boring for me.

Yeah, we've been meaning to do this for a while, but the Cup threw us off there.
Will replace Jagd with Glider (we had Flugplatz for a long while) unless anyone has objections

I will play glider, though I personally prefer Kraftstoff to it (thats the one with the allied barrels and the gas truck). Also Dog, I know that TV2 has a map vote, but that is more of the fool-around, laid back, have fun, just be stupid server. Its our kickback place where we really like to relax. TV3 is the more "serious" server where really good games can be had, as well as having a larger amount of ppl on usually. I think that a map vote would be good there. Would it hurt to try or at least start a formal poll to see what villuns think?

As Dog said we have been meaning to switch it up a bit like on a month to month basis, just got a little busy with the cup and forgot. :oops:

Thanks for the reminder. :)

OK, Raptor, just for you, I'll change it to Kraftstoff!
:D

As for the vote....it's one of those weird things that I never understand.
People vote but then get a map they're not happy with and leave.
See it happening all the time!

Caen is just waaaaaaay too big. As for merderet, while i like the map, we have its successor on there, Sturm.

i have a question.. is it possible to keep all the same maps but then every so many maps you have a map vote that has a constant of 5 different maps lik (jagd and flugplatz and all those lvl's on there, most ppl like saints and all those lvl's but its the other lvl that cause ppl to leave so if you could have a vote there i think that might help (iono if thats possible though)
