Far as I can tell, it hasn't changed for at least six months.

Here's the roughly twenty-thousand maps played on railz, in order, over the past six months:

The base rotation hasn't changed, although there have been a LOT of mymaps lately.

mymap cnest,    that's all my fault

[VaeVictis]

Alright :/ after playing on railz a bit yesterday i have to say... all the mymaps lately SUCK ASS

Everyone is mymapping like every single map, so the normal rotation is hardly seen until those people leave, and they mymap terrible maps too :/

I dont care if people mymap a bit here and there, but lately it has been WAY too much on terrible maps... Putting some restrictions down is seeming like a very good idea

[Whirlingdervish]

I've noticed a couple people under aliases I don't recognize mymapping stuff constantly the last week or so.

Seems like every map change they are managing to skip the actual rotation.

Vae,  if you REALLY want the next map in the regular rotation to be played you can always mymap it,  it will show twice in the nextmap command,
but it will skip the second one.  Just an idea.


Maybe give an idea of the crappy maps,  they can always be removed from the mymap list,  but they WERE put in there for one reason or another.



I usually mymap when I join a server, or when I hit frag 39 and nobody else has mymapped anything. 

cnest, tltf, carena, stadium...  my usual mymaps.  I love open maps with nowhere to hide.

I don't think some of those maps last night were too bad. Definitely too many players to enjoy those maps.

Seems to be primarily c-68-49-xxx-xxx.hsd1.va.comcast.net, under random aliases.  Their primary alias on their current IP seems to be LiveForNow -- but that IP only goes back about 60 days, so, not sure who they really are.


The current mymap pool on railz is pretty eclectic:

If there are maps in there that people largely think suck and should be removed, that's fine; let me know.


Also, I've changed the config so it works like vanilla... At least two rotation maps are slotted between off-list maps.

better than no limitation thanks quadz

were you still around for the one that was just walk ways over lava? :/

Yes. I was still playing after you left.

That was pretty funny actually. Free kills on anyone who fell in the lava. 

[Gouki]

that explains how my map was played the 3rd time when i wasn't there.
too bad my map hasn't seen the light of day after i left

Please remove syn!
