Valve maps #1 earlier this morning was stuck in limbo for 4+ hours cause of this bug, DF nor any admins were on at the time which is understandable as they can't be on at all times of the day but damn, this bug is the most annoying i've seen cause pipeline doesn't end if this happens. I heard from Insomnia the bug can be activated, it's not just random. This hopefully is TOP priority on valve's to-do list.

Ya, I was snoozing :p saw the messages when I got up.
Typically I think it is random. As for this morning, someone told me "some guys" did it but I wasn't there so that would have to be investigated.
As for why it bugs, if the carts in a stage finish at exactly the same time, the carts do not appear at the next stage. Some people have also claimed it happened by only pushing one cart in at the second stage and then the carts never reset for the 3rd stage. Seems to be just a buggy map.
Valve is aware. There are multiple threads about it and even one about all the
known pipeline bugs. But who knows when they will get around to fixing it. :roll:

for the time it happened for me on #2, we were on stage 2 enemy cart was probably in the mid of our courtyard or so. Our cart had made it up the small incline to the point and was sitting on the edge. Thats when they both disappeared. DF saved us after a "contact admin" was sent.

The one sent to me today at 2am didn't wake me up. Sorry. I'll remove the map from rotation until I either make something that forces map change after a while or until Valve fixes it.

I was going to complain about this removal until I realized I didn't even like the map in the first place
