Gungame Map Cleanup

[rjk83]

Ok, so after significant discussion & comments about adding / removing maps by both the gg regs and the other admins and with some loving advice from nat :P, a group of the admins / jr owner (me, sajora, organ, shortbus, and even clay was in for a map or two) got together and reviewed a bunch of new maps and yes / no voted them.

The end in mind was that we could try to stop adding a few maps, taking off the ones that nobody liked, then adding a few more... rinse and repeat... that is more than likely a pain for those that do the physical admin of the servers. At the same time, making the server more competitive and giving the regs what they want (i.e. - fresh gameplay).

After a couple of hours of scouring through fpsbanana, loading, testing, and voting on the maps, we compiled a list of a significant number of maps that we all felt would make a good addition to the server. Organ was the guy with the final say while we compiled the list, but I wanted to post it on the boards so that he could sign off on it here and the admins/owners that weren't on at the time could see as well and give their feedback.

Additionally, we compiled what I hope to be a complete list of all of the maps that the admins / regs wanted off the server so that we could do it now, and then not have to revisit the topic again for a number of months. I'll post the list of new maps here, and I'll have organ review (and subsequently post) the final list of map deletions again w/ BMOC/mamaice/hellscream/etc and hopefully we'll be done with the minor changes for a while.

Here are the list of the new maps. (thank's sajora)

To wrap it up, thanks organ / sajora / shortbus / etc... I know its a significant list and we went through a lot more and these are the ones that we came up with. Please direct all complaints to Organ :P

[Sajora]

well i can tell it was hard work to go through all maps but we had fun and i hope all admins and jr. owners of gg agree to this big change
lots of regs were talking about its getting boring to play the same maps every day for a long while so we decided to work on it and this is the result
well we dont know if ppl will like the new maps but im pretty sure they will

What maps did you want removed?

[rjk83]

Well, this was the edited list of maps to remove, I'll post it here in case I don't see organ for a few days. However, I'm sure that at least one of the owners still needs to pick through it and edit or ok it before removing them. They may want to keep some of em.

aim_texture_4way
gg_300

Some of those really shouldn't be taken off.. falling trash was one of the better maps on the server Southfields as well as (some others may not agree with me on this one but..) hangumhigh were some of the ones that have been on the server for almost 2 years, since I started playing... I don't want to see them go! -tear-

I love falling trash and texture arena, and hang em high is great when the server is full! I am fine with the others going.
