So is there going to be a separate survey for maps we like, or are we just posting our preferences in this thread? Maybe I misunderstood.
Back on topic, for what it's worth, I kind of like cp_stag.
I'm with you there - Stag is a fun pyro map. I can see why people don't like it though. Lots of narrow pathways.
I'd be up for deleting all of these maps from that list. We usually just screw around on koth maps now when server count is low so there is no reason to keep arena on. All it does is take up a lot of spots on rtvs, same with the Big Koth map pack. Also, even though cp_yukon is an "official" map, it needs to go. It came up once in the rotation a couple weeks ago and people immediately rtv'ed off of it.

Isn't Ashford that super bland payload map?
What was the hybrid ctf/cp map? You can only cap the CPs while holding the intel. It took a little getting used to, but I really liked it.
*edit* Desparados can suck it.
Pretty sure that's the ktf map. We need to play that more. Also there's another sweet ctf map out there now where the intel moves on a cart towards each base. No camping an intel room on that one. I'll try to find it.
Okay, found the ctf intel on carts map: CTF_Atrophy
No love for pl_frontier?
No love for pl_frontier?
I'd vote for that one.
Survey is up. Vote now. Try to keep your favorites to 10.
I left the standard maps on there that are on the current server maplist. This may influence the default order of maps so include standard maps in your list.
Homer throw this at the top of the thread so that it's easier for people to find.
Question: are we assuming the Valve official maps are staying? Because I don't want to waste my votes on non-custom maps (like Dustbowl) if I don't have to.

hmm good question. I already voted some official maps as my favorites.

I remember it was generally well received but broken, and doesnt look like its been updated in 8 months
ctf_haarp is the hybrid map I was thinking of.
I would say "Down with Desert Fortress!" as well, but there are too many people who like it around here. Curses to you all.
I don't care about playing or not playing any other custom maps, but Desert Fortress is the only one that needs to stay. It is one hell of a blood bath and promotes more teamwork to win than a lot of other maps.
And it has really been grandfathered in.
I don't like Desert Fortress at all, but it's like 2fort... It's just always been there.
I think it would be really good for us if we made like a rule of not rtv-ing after 2 minutes in the map. I like to wait until both teams have attacked or defended at least. Or if one team is getting rolled really badly and no scramble.
Sometimes you're just on the losing team and it sucks playing 10 minutes just knowing that your team is not gonna make it, but hey, take your lumps like a man private twinkletoes

Totally, totally agree with this.

Yes, sometimes you need to suck it up and accept the vicious one sided beating. Also in TF2.
What won? Dont hold us in suspense!
There were 36 people who completed the survey. I'll take a look at the survey and try to get a smaller group of maps together. I'll post that later this week. For now here is a google docs spreadsheet with the results. If anyone has trouble let me know and I'll post image results.
Stan's Map Survey Results
I find it moderately confusing red is like and blue is hate. =P
Look at that hate for 2Fort! Warms my heart. Also, no one loves hydro.
Circle Jerk didn't fair so well either.
Whoever voted for ashford needs to be shot.
Woot, only one to vote for hate on dustbowl and badwater

What other things do you hate, ukick? Sunny days? Friendship? cake?
I wish whoever made dustbowl released a sequel or something, that map is awesome but after 2 years of playing it gets old.
Thanks Evil, do you mean you removed stock maps from the rotation? I'd be ok with that, the private should be custom maps all the time.
Im not removing them from the map list. I will not have them all on the rotation, though. I'm going to leave the more popular ones and try to adjust the roation so that it goes stock, custom, stock, custom. Assuming we have roughly equal numbers of popular maps (I have not checked that).
Sounds great, let's test it tonite =)
