Also, in our defence, we never asked CC to put that on their channel, and I have encouraged people to download the maps before they vote for them.

it is true. that was actually my idea, because COI is just so darn sexy.

It's not like it would encourage that many more people to vote for COI, #team_cc hands out ops to just about everyone already.

Would it have worked better to have the mappers themselves vote on which map they like the most for gameplay?

And telling them they couldn't choose their own, of course.  :P

An interesting idea, but there could still be a lot of favoritism involved.  There's not really an objective way to do it, however the fairest way to do it would probably be to have a panel of 6-10 people play all the maps through a couple times and cover every game mode, then vote.  That way you at least ensure the gameplay ratings are coming from people who have played the maps.

So what you're saying is that we should really just hold a small tournament based around the maps themselves next time, and then make the players rank the maps.   ;D

Is there any good way to choose people to play the maps?  It doesn't seem like it would be fair to make the committee make that kind of call.  Maybe have each established clan elect people to play in the tournament?

I have no idea if that would work in practice, though.

Building a tournament around the mapping competition seems like a very good idea to me, it helps develop the clanning community, while exposing the maps to a wider audience.

Of course, the only problem is that not all the maps are ctf.
