BRB #1 Rotation Horseshit/Bullshit/Pile of Shit.

[Benito Mussolini]

Summing up my exact feeling. Sometimes people will invite me over, when I see its on #1 I'm more inlined to stay where I am because I don't like getting out of the groove. I've been seing alot more activity on #3 just because of its all-stock rotation.

For that reason, I vote for switching #1 and #3 so people would have better pings!

why do you say these things honest? :'<

[Master Shake]

here's my idea of a rotation:

pl_goldrush
cp_dustbowl
ctf_mach4
cp_steel
cp_warpath2
arena_lumberyard*
cp_gravelpit
cp_well
cp_badlands**
pl_norad

*I realize that a lot of this community hates arena. However, a lot of the TF2 community loves this game mode, and I've seen a lot of connections when we switch to these maps. Think of it as a server filler.

**Think of it as an opportunity to rtv if we start to lose people.

I stopped playing recently because the server doesn't stay full long enough.  Heres what I think, in this order:
pl_goldrush
ctf_mach4
cp_dustbowl
pl_norad
cp_stag
cp_steel
cp_warpath2
cp_gravelpit
cp_well

[JoKeRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR]

badlands, granary, well, gravelpit, dryer, freight, stag, science2

and watch the pubbers come rolling in

[Benito Mussolini]

Quick thought: don't put CTF and arenas on rotation.
CTFs always lead to turtling, which sucks however you look at it.
Arena just sucks... if you like that kind of gameplay, go spray and pray on Counter Strike... or drive a Warthog.

Payloads are OK, since they are kind of like CPs... but nothing beats CP maps.

JoKeRR beat me a bit to it... and dryer is awesome.

TLR summary

Benito is too picky with maps.

Very yes. +1

[Kor]

+1 FUCK YEAH

[CaffeinePowered]

Just an aside, norad can not go on rotation yet, as it still has the download error for pubbies

[Wedge]

Oh fuck, I forgot we had switchback on rotation.  I actually wish it could get regular play, as it's one of the best 5 point cap maps I've ever played.

[Wedge]

Oh and the current rotation isn't that bad, except having swift and switchback together is fucking terrible, as this is what usually kills the server.  Swift should be removed from rotation (it's not that good of a map anyways).  And we need to have a few more stock maps (db/gr etc) to keep pops up.  Yeah.

And the random maps that can appear in RTV need to be cleaned up for sure.  If it's possible to leave maps on nomination but NOT show up randomly in rtv, that would be good.  IE remove all arena maps and a bunch of random betas that never got played much from it.

.....this is illogical.
