Recently, these maps were added, the vsh_dr_ect.

But the problem is....


There's barely if not NO vsh maps being played because of people nominating this crap ALL THE TIME. Plus when they do get voted in, they get rtv'd in less than 10-20 minutes to a NEW death run map which gets rtv'd in 10-20 minutes to a NEW death run map and so on..

It's pissing me off and pushing me away from the server.

A lot of regulars just leave the server and wait until death run passes... if it ever does

Tell me, why did you add this hell to the nomination list. Now its an abomination list.


Ideas brainstormed so far:

IDEA 1:
Only be able to vote for ANY death run maps once every like, 5-10 voting periods.

Sure, i'll admit its a fun little game, death run, but the reason its bad is because its the only damn thing being played on the server 24/7

IDEA 2:
have a tf2ware/deathrun rotation on the tf2ware server

Today is the day where we get millions of DeathRun complaint threads.

Yes, which surely says something. "Perhaps we should do something? Like, if our community is complaining this much about 1 subject maybe it is actually a problem". This problem isn't just going to disappear, it's just alienating the people that play on Skial's servers alot.

We don't have any room in EU, I would have to order another machine which is why I need time to think about it.

This is true but the people shouldn't make a new thread about it. If they did the forums would be clogged with "REMOVE DR SAXTON HALE" "Why Death Run on Saxton Hale?" etc. They should post in a thread already made before making a thread and complaining.

4 DR maps in a row, gets rtv'd within 10 minutes each time, majority of the maps you can vote for are DR, this is bad.

Hey, I never said I was against change. I'm one hundred percent for moving DR to it's own server. I just was saying that there has been lots of complaint threads over DR today.

Can't you, as a temporary solution, remove all DR maps except 1. Then the people with DR fetishes get their fix, but us that hate them know that we can play a different map.

Or remove them completely, as everyone seemed fine without them before.

Or you could just dump the maps and stop wasting our time with your concerns about nublets and the traffic figures they generate. >_<
