Map rotation...

May I make a suggestion...
Lets create a rotation we can implement on our server, a mix of various maps including caption and detonation styles.
example...
dod_avalanche - Area Capture
dod_colmar - Detonation
dod_flash (or dod_koln) - Area Capture
dod_strand - Detonation
If we can offer a unique rotation we may draw in new members. Not sure what capture maps we all enjoy, I listed flash/koln because they're smaller maps we seem to like, it never takes long to get back into the action!
By the way, were close to $100 in donations this month, not bad for a server we're just getting off the ground. Lets keep going!
MG DoD:S FTW!

If you had 7 maps to put into a rotation what would you offer, here's my selection...
dod_kalt: a good starter map, winter scene with tunnels
dod_flash: smaller map, close quarters action
dod_avalanche: the day map, a popular choice that draws in players
dod_colmar: an objectives map at night
dod_argenten: smaller map, always action packed
dod_foxhunt_source: an arena map dod_foxhunt_source
dod_avalanche: the new night time version dod_avalanche night
If we have a large server population I would suggest dod_strand as an alternate that can be subbed in, if we have a small population dod_fullhouse dod_fullhouse
This rotation offers a mix of classic official maps varying in size along with a mix of custom maps. Nothing cast in stone.
So....what ya got?
dod_foxhunt_source

I found one playing a 24/7 map called dod_strand_cr (the SS looks the same as the ones in dod_strand, but I swear it had two letters at the end, I am pretty sure _cr). It was ALOT of fun, about 25-30 people in the server, and they limited the amount of people who could be sniper, assault, etc. I think it was SniperX2 AssaultX4 and they others were like 6 and 8 each. Too many snipers on that map would be horrible.

Agreed Seth, both dod_colmar and jagd are fun alternative maps/styles to play...definitely a rotation candidate.
An arena map is a must as well. Getting away from the era of WWII to play a tight custom arena map is not only a lot of fun but something to take advantage of. Lets try a few of these, don't knock it till you try it!

I really enjoyed the rotation last night, and I'd be willing to try foxhunt as well. Strand is great, colmar is great, I also really enjoyed the objective style with the allies defending the 3 positions...
I agree, last night's rotation was fun and I noticed I'm finally ranked, (page 10, 729 out of 730 players).

I like this as a regular rotation. For Sunday's I'd like to see this rotation with these added:
Strand of course , Jagd, Fullhouse, Donner and maybe Orange Tower.

Langley, I was able to make my router settings stick. I'll be able to host now, we'll keep testing maps. Thanks for the help!

Played again last night, it was either _cr1 or _rc1. I made it a point to remember, then I forgotI found one playing a 24/7 map called dod_strand_cr (the SS looks the same as the ones in dod_strand, but I swear it had two letters at the end, I am pretty sure _cr).
Anyway's, they run a 24/7 server and everytime I have logged in they have 20 people in it.

Foxhunt was pretty sick. We should play it more often. The cross sniping was great!Thank you Noir for putting dod_foxhunt_source on last night, it appeared we all had a good time playing it. Of all the maps I've played it was the most difficult to cap, you completely rely on teamwork.
