    Hey,

    I've got ~200 hours on the server, rank ~125, and I only really have one complaint:

    The map variety, or lack thereof.

    During map selection, pretty much everyone just spams 1 (as usual). A possible way around this would be adding a non-selectable "Title" on 1, so that another number must be pressed instead, hopefully prompting people to actually make a decision.

    Alternatively (preferably) add a larger selection of maps, ideally even custom maps. Since randomiser isn't a particularly serious mode, not having well known maps isn't a problem, and if players don't want to play them they won't be selected on the map vote. Playing some of the newer maps would also be a refreshing change.

    Here's a picture of my time on the server, as you can see it's usually the same old maps, over and over:

    PS: Thanks for permitting what Valve wouldn't: Unusual effects on the Point n Shoot!

    I would slaughter small children for the chance to have variety like Hydro.

    Oh hey! This guy comes on almost every night. Anyway, yes, we should have more maps on RDMZ, feels like we only have ten. All of the stock maps would be nice, and maybe even some Official-like tf2 community maps!

    Won't add anymore stock maps, already tried that.
    Some are simply not popular and empty out the server quickly.

    What we could add is custom maps, some suggestions for those would be nice.

    As i haven't received a response from anyone intersted in this, I will be declining this for now.
    Feel free to make a new suggestion once you have got some maps to offer too.

    Locked.
