Requests/feedback for the one-day Sunday tournaments so far have been:
1) Make them start later (now 20:00 CEST instead of 19:00) 2) This map-picking is confusing/wrong/bad (generally complained about before playing, seems okay in practise) 3) Where is dm6? <- most common so far
DM6 is the number one map people want back in, but there isn't really a clear-cut candidate for another map to be removed. I'd prefer to add this and another map to the pool and have 7 maps to choose from. Our options are:
1) Don't add a 7th map. Have map-pool of 6 and if deciding map is required, either agree on a map, or coin-toss to decide 2) Add skull - most well-known of kenya maps, but a lot of conflicting versions out there until all servers updated. 3) Add travelert6 - probably the kenya map i see people playing for fun the most often. Not tested in competition yet, there was meant to be an alternative version but I believe it hasn't been completed, and no void means it lost a lot of character. 4) Add monsoon#td - people who tried it seem to feel positively about it, but not many turned up on Sunday. Not on most servers yet. 5) Add another kenya map - spinev2, doomed, ravageqwb8, shifter, ...
Keen to get thoughts on this - I'd like to update the map-pool for the tournament after next (so the one on 1st October). Don't want things to be too kenya for one-day tournaments though, people should really be able to just turn up and play.

Maybe rotate a different DMx map out every week for a kenya.
Eg: Week 4 :dm4, dm6, aero, ztndm3, spinev2. Week 5: dm2, dm6,aero, ztndm3, monsoon Week6: dm2, dm4, aero, ztndm3, skull etc.etc.
From most people I know, aerowalk and ztndm3 seem to be generally agreed to be good maps. But the DMx maps tend to be quite divisive, most of them seem to have a 50/50 love/hate when you ask around. What I propose keeps the pool fresh but also means that if your favorite DM map is gone its only for 1 week ...so no need for tears lol.

Exileb1r6 Found it and had a wee bounce around it. Yeah, seems like a nice map. Would certainly second it if it was ever considered for a tourney.

hm, seems like I somehow missed it. Actually yes, seems very cool. “If I wanted you to understand it, I would have explained it better.” (c) Johan Cruyff
