There are several issues with the map cycle, first 45 minutes i think is way too long to play on one map. When there are no admins to change the map, and not enough people it can get a little bit frustrating. Somewhere around 20-35 minutes will work better. When there is no admin there should be an easier way to let the players change to a different map. It would be ideal a command like /rockthevote or something like that could give the opportunity for players to vote from 3 maps for a map change.
Also there are some maps that, i think don't work in the cycle because they are not as popular. The current cycle is as followed.
de_nuke
de_cbble
de_dust2
cs_italy
surf_ski_2 *
de_inferno
de_aztec
de_dust
de_train
cs_speedball *
as_oilrig
as_pkp *
* i feel those maps should be taken out and whenever there is an admin and wants to play on respective maps, can call for a vote or simply change to that map. Also there is no cs_office on the cycle.
Having popular maps twice on the cycle(if possible) wouldn't be a bad idea either, because they would help attract newcomers to the server. (DUST, DUST2, OFFICE, )
Also on a side note, you guys should watch out with admin abuse, because it creates a hostile environment on the server. I have witness several occasion of admin abuse in the server i don't like mention names but, if your clan is going to give the admin power to one of its member, you should make sure that your clan members know how to be good admins and how to DEAL WITH THEIR ADMIN POSITION on a respectful no abusive way. I say this because i use to be an admin on a server a long time ago (get r' done) and some admins just basically abuse their power and treating different players without a reason. On the long run it dragged players away from the server making it fail.
Well that all i have to say i know it has been quite long but i hope you take this a constructive suggestion that will improve the playing envirionment on your server.
