i made this a few months ago but it was denied saying that it was unpopular but everyone on the dr servers are saying that it was really good and miss it, the admins say it was unpopular but how can they know that if it was taken off the map rotor? it was always popular and one of the most frequently played. if we cant bring back the old one is there a newer one with no bugs/exploits?

I aprove this idea +1
On another note i think this map wasn't so "popular" because there were/are some maps that are overplayed like Pirate Adventure or Cocanium.[I am not saying that's a bad thing though]

Bottiger has access to player traffic statistics that log traffic over a period of time. If a map is showing clear lack of player traffic it will likely be removed.

Chances are that's why horrors was removed

I thought dr horrors was picked fairly often but I believe that is what bottiger said, it wasn't popular enough.

I think it would be good for horrors to be an option for the community, if they don't want it they wont pick it but at least there is an option to play it rather than take it down entirely.

If the map was so unpopular it wouldn't have been picked as much as it was before it got taken down and given the people who are reading this suggestion, most of them want it back and i think the people who play on the servers but dont check the forums would think the same.

+1 Numerous times I was legit pissed when that map got chosen instead of my nomination
Possible reason for lack of traffic might be the choice doors, when kids leave because all they see is 10+ people dancing and running around in front of them for several minutes, or that one door that only opens when hale gets there because he doesn't know it works like that, and so same scenario.

That's what I was thinking, I was only saying bottiger said it apparently wasn't popular enough. Perhaps I should have been clearer and said I think it should be put back on.

dr horrors is a well done map unlike others that have been removed in the past.

bottiger doesn't usually put maps back on that have been removed.

So in conclusion we need to: Fix the 1ºtrap [you can escape from it if you jump on the tv's]
Fix the door that doesn't open if Hale is not there
Fix the bug where you can avoid the minigame
Fix the minigame itself [there is no wall dividing Hale from the red team]
And after that, the map becomes one of the best, in my opinion.

And also we need to remove the button that changes the killing door, so people won't be wasting time there
