Yes it's probably not normally like that. Here it is again as of now:

Its interesting that actually relatively few maps had their threshold change in the 6 hours between the stats. Are both harvest final and event in the rotation or do you have them setup to randomly alternate?

Just _event. Also, six hours may not have been enough to make a full cycle with 35 minute maps.

I figured it probably wouldnt have cycled enough yet but still the base % itself gives abit of info about previous skips. so based on that I was working on my map rotation suggestion:

What was doing here was i broke up all the games according to their gametype. cp (mutual), cp (attack defend), pl, koth, ctf, pipeline (dual pl) and hydro (tc). I then broke it up into quartets trying to fit one map of each type into the quartet and alternating between cp mutual and cp attack and defend. Further, I was trying to base it on the historic rejection rates thinking that a high threshold means people try to skip more often in general and low threshold means people love the map. So from that I tried to pick each quartet to match the thresholds: low, mid, low, high.
So people skipping a map thats typically skipped should always end up with one most people seem to like.

The last bit is just the quartet of maps I didnt fit in and so probably just need to be swapped around slighty or wedged alittle. Gravelpit I'm amazed has a higher rejection than junction! Was expecting gravelpit to be a low rejection.

*Edit: Apparently fastlane managed to get lost fix that and post revised in sec

Ok revised map rotation suggestion:

And its broken into nice chunks that should work well together if you wanna swap chunks around too

Ranma Wrote:cp_steel
cp_yukon_final
tc_hydro
ctf_well

I do not like this portion.

K, thats a small bit, can easily swap out the offending bits there with ones in other chunks, what dont you like about it, other than hating 'pukon'? =)

[Valve Maps] Server Rotations - Drunken F00l - Mar 27, 2010

Hydro and ctf_well are often hated on and noobs don't like cp_steel because "omg i don't know this map where's c guise"

---

[Valve Maps] Server Rotations - Ranma - Mar 27, 2010

Ok how about

swapping ctf_well with a less hated ctf map (turbine) Swapping noob unfriendly steel with the more friendly junction. Then reorganizing that chunk slightly. Trying to make that chunk taste slightly better. Did it work?
