Tourney 3rd Edition (Novice Map Voting)

[KobraKlaws]

11 maps?  Let's even it out at 12 by throwing in tastydm2.  I'm sure there won't be one person that would object to it being included, after all it was made for the tastyspleen community.  It's only fitting that we include it too.

And thanks for including grom_dm3 in there too.  I was hoping that it would somehow make it in.  Been practicing on it lately too.

Not gonna whine, but would suggest replacing the original ztn2dm1 with the redone version(painkiller2), cause the original, which is in the maplist, is notoriously known for being the most unbalanced map ever. Well, at least the fixed version seems a lot better to play on in my eyes. Both more pleasing to the eyes, and better itemplacement. See no reason to play duels on horrible maps even though it's a novice bracket

Just my 2 cents

Thanks for the input, dael.  I also think that painklr2 is the superior version of Painkiller.  It's all right with me if Laurelin replaces ztn2dm1 with painklr2.

[Laurelin]

Alright - since it was your nomination at first - I will replace it.

I will also add tastydm2 to round up to twelve maps.

If anyone disagree please speak.

I'm not in novice, but I highly agree.  It is far too easy to control the RA/YA/RL/Chain.. and no reason for a player to move out of that area once in the lead.

Unfortunately, ztndm3q2 crashes both the servers - so it won't be part of the Maplist. Therefore bringing the number of maps to 11. I will remove tastydm2 as it was not voted afterall. So we will be back to 10 maps.

Kind of disappointing, too bad there was no fix for that.  Not good to see 10 votes go to waste.

Wish we could replace ztndm3q2 with another map.  I would suggest ztn2dm4 seeing how others I talked with were hoping it would be on the poll too.  And tastydm2 definitely belongs in this tourney...I mean, it even has banners in there referring to it.

It was worth a try at least.  I thought we would be better off having 12 maps since it would allow more combinations and plus it works out better seeing how 3 goes into 12 with no problem.

I have been messaged regarding the fact that the 10-maps were voted, and that there shouldnt be more than that. Adding tastydm2 at the end like that kind of defeats the purpose of Map Nominations and voting. And that is not right.

Yes its very unfortunate that ztndm3q2 can't make it, but we had a 4-maps tied situation, and it kinds of make it work properly that way. So let's keep it at 10.

Understood, thought nobody would mind it if tastydm2 was added in as a special 11th map.  But I have no problems with it at all, just thought I would give something for everyone to consider.

I'm more than satisfied with the final map list.

So how r the standings so far?

[DeathInc KEA]

Ok...so there are ten maps....are the ten maps going to be a random selection for each match, or are they going to be blocked like in the sport/pro bracket? Or are the three of the 10 maps played in the match to be decided on by the two players in the match? Just curious, and this may have been covered somewhere already.....Ive been out of it for a bit lately.

I just found the thread that answered my question....hehe
