Since random maps was implanted on Aloha Babel server, some of them seem to appear often.
I hope these aswers help admins to decide which maps could leave the rotation, and which ones could return to it.
Final results will be published here.
i don’t think it’s a good idea to put old maps back into rotation due to the fact that those maps were removed for a certain reason. whether it’s for the fact that’s they’re heavily unbalanced or not a popular choice, it’s going to be a controversial idea to put those maps back into rotation.
i also see the reason to remove maps for those reasons i have stated and agree that the aloha staff should keep the rotation to a certain order instead of random. this may give an unfair chance for a map to be played more often than others
Lostmotel, thank you for your cooperation!
I didn’t know major part of these maps, and really would like to see them back to the rotation for a while!
I thought alexandria was a great map because it had so many different levels: the central pyramid, the right/left tunnels, the central underground chambers, two options for going wide overground in each direction.
Personally I would like to see alexandria, remus, roadisland, yubacore, catseyebabel and lard(one of my favorites) in the map cycle. If something must be removed, please take bridgeyard. This map would be fun to play but all the time is taken to keep griefers away from the bridges.
I got a small idea too: Is it possible to put a list of old maps to the map cycle, for example for the time between christmas and a new years day? For the sake of old times?
i’m not sure it it possible that the problem can be solved by the staff. what i have heard is that it isn’t that easy to change the grieving area in the map, so the problem might be there forever unless there is a change to the map.
We’ve been trying to get updated map rotations for years, and even if we do it has nothing to do with our choices even if we have votes like these, they decide sadly.
