Time to shake up #13 maps?

[SgtMoo]

Steel or Gravel would be my 2 choices to replace Lakeside
I dont mind Hydro, great for those sudden death playoffs
standard Gorge is alright, 5CP not so much

Just my 2c

Barnblitz killed the server earlier tonight, went from 20+ players to 10 or so as soon as it changed.

Would it be at all possible to limit payload maps to one turn of offence/defence for each team? It's annoying to have to attack more than once on the same map if you capture quickly/defend successfully.

I'd agree with that.

Personally I reckon bring back Gravel and Hydro, they've been off #13 for a while but its time to bring them back. I'm also going to suggest taking off Goldrush for a while - it was the first PL map and starting to get a little stale.

Badwater (2 rounds only)
Hydro (melee sudden death)
Frontier (2 rounds only)
Upward (2 rounds only)
Gravelpit (2 rounds only)
Hoodoo (2 rounds only)

Considering no one could decide on final choice, I've gone and got the mapcycle changed. Current cycle should be :

pl_barnblitz (2 rounds maximum)
cp_gravelpit
pl_hoodoo_final
cp_egypt_final
pl_badwater
tc_hydro (with sudden death set to melee only)
pl_frontier_final (2 rounds maximum)
cp_steel (2 rounds maximum)
pl_upward

It's a mixture of all suggestions. Feel free to cry or cheer.

PS. Speaking of Map changes, I've also got the Minecraft map (Minepit) added to our custom map server (Server 23). See here for example : viewtopic.php?f=7&t=189023

Thanks for the changes. I havent been about to push the issue but I'm sure we'll get some movement back on the server from tomorrow night *hint hint*

Certainly cant complain about that, very happy to see Gravel, Egypt, HooDoo and Steel in the mix.

Now it's gonna be a real tough choice between playing Saxton Hale mod and GoN #13

I love you!

After a month or so away from the game (moving house, no Internet, Deus Ex) I return to find server 13 empty most evenings (at least the nights I've been able to play). What's up with that?

[GoToadGo]

The rotation is ****? Despite the fact MANY regulars said they **** hate Steel and many other **** maps, they still ended up on there

Better than the old rotation of 90% payload maps and one KOTH.

[GoToadGo]

Server activity says otherwise my good man.

No, what Toad said is correct. The new rotation has driven at least some of the regulars away. We've been playing a bit on #23 instead, because that's a fun rotation and a change from other servers. I'll only join #13 if I start playing late and steamfriends are already playing there.

The reason it's (often) empty is as Toad stated.
