Can we put downpour into rotation? All of the maps should be in rotation....

I like downpour but its a server killer

Set it up for a vote.

Demigod, no offense, but that map just kills the server.  I mean they leave in droves.  It is a very depressing map. If I have to vote on it, I would have to give a big NO

I will vote a big YES

Just a reminder that if you want to play a map that is missing from the rotation, it is possible to manually load the map for a one time play.

Full Admins and above are able to use the !map <change map> command.

The best time to do this is when there is a smaller number of players in server... like around 12 or less.  This should be an occasional thing as we want to stick with the rotation for the most part.

At the conclusion of a game, just say something like "hey, anyone mind if we play ___________ next for a change of pace?" 

Usually people will be on board with it.

Bot command:  !map mp_farm

I think I just caught a semi!  I love downpour!  Time for a sniper w/ overkill :D

Just trying loading it a few times when a map is coming to an end and see what happens.

I love mixing up the maps for people..  If there are smaller numbers of people on the server and I know the larger maps in rotation aren't going to cut it Ill offer to switch.

And theres always WINTER CRASH - my fave

What exactly is the rule about changing maps? I don't know of all the clan rules and guidelines, so I tend not to do such things as changing maps. (although this morning there was six of us on the server and bloc came up and everyone wanted a different map so I used the map rotate command, which is most likely the first time I've ever done it on our clan server.).

Is it just something you can do if everyone seems okay with it?

There are no hard and fast rules about it, but we've followed common courtesy. 

1.  Don't change the map in the middle of a game unless there is agreement, especially with the top place players.
2.  If the map you want to load is known to drive people away (downpour), it is best to do it when the server has a smaller number of players already.
3.  This is especially true for the small maps like killhouse and shipment that we don't have in the rotation.  Don't load those maps when there are a large number of players in server because all it does is lead to complaining.

I use map rotate more than I do changing to a specific map.  Bloc is another map that rarely comes up in rotation but it seems often people want to skip it, so you did the right thing for sure!

Traditionally, we add Winter Crash for the holidays (Thanksgiving through New Year), so it will be added soon!! 

Plus we also have more than one server if only a small number of people want a particular map and said map drives player numbers down
