1. Autobalance is off. Not round scramble, but autobalance, which may be part of the reason the server empties so fast. We played Mountain lab for over 60 seconds before realizing it was 4v10.
2.The rotation needs changing. It was nice and full after the replay update, but now with more servers implementing that, the boost it got from replay folks is fairly over and it's back to being near empty most of the day.
Suggested rotation :
Dustbowl
Turbine
Fastlane
Frontier
Lakeside
Badlands
Goldrush
Granary
Harvest
Badwater
Freight
Gorge
Coldfront
Upward

I love some 2fort boxing as much as the next person, but the regs tend to leave when 2fort comes up on #1. And we need regs to actually play on #2.

Most of the regs hate 2fort, mainly because valve 1 has every map. I can only play on 2fort if i just got on tf2, or there is a lot of regulars on to keep to me entertained.

Autobalance is not off. It just requires someone from the team with more players to die. It will not switch living players.

Yes, and in this particular case people did die on the team with more players and were not switched (the best I have for evidence is a screenshot showing folks dead on the fuller team during the period when no one was being switched) . Further, the warning text 'Teams will be autobalanced in 5 seconds' didn't appear. In any event, it could have just been a temporary thing caused by Mountain lab sucking so bad.

please please PLEASE make #2 a slightly map-limited version of #1. keep maybe, 10 maps total on it, and ppl can play #1 for the less popular maps.
