I think it's good since it allows people to play on maps that they like but that not everyone likes. Otherwise 2fort would get skipped everytime, and the few guys in the server who enjoy 2fort would never get to play it.

Yes, skip it and play <nextnextmap>
No, don't skip and play <nextmap>
Also, if you pick the wrong option, !revote works before the vote ends.

I don't think this is widely known, maybe you should write that at the bottom?

I was just using 2fort as an example. There are lots of maps where this happens.

the voting system doesn't need rewording anymore, its simple nice efficient ect... i guess if nuff ppl want to include a line talking bout "!revote" meh... i tho think unneeded.
Thanks.

I know !revote works but a lot of people don't know that, plus the fact that it is sometimes a pain to type it while in the middle of a game unless you're dead. But I can't tell you how many times i've gone to change weapons and the vote came up and I voted for something I didn't want, so I don't see why the numbers can't be changed like someone else said I think it was Snarf?

I thought you were going to change the voting number from 1 and 2 DF. Wasn't there talk a whiles ago about switching it due to people hitting 1 and 2 without realizing a map vote was going on.

Yes, but if the numbers are changed, you won't be able to close the vote without hitting the correct numbers which could be annoying if you're in battle.

How about instead of the menu popping up automatically, a message pops up that says type !vote to vote for skipping the next map, and the numbers used are only based on the number of people that actually vote, so if only half the server votes, then 50% of that half is needed to skip.
That way you don't get these tools that just hit 1 or 2 because they don't care about the next map and cause good maps to get skipped and bad ones to get played.
