    Instead of having 1,2,3,4,5 Etc. Should move map vote over to 3,4,5,6, Etc. Might stop all the 1 spammers from constantly voting horrible maps.

    People would probably start spamming 3 in that case, but it is worth looking in to, I agree.

    Didn't we do something like this where 1 was a null vote and people just spammed 2 instead? Maybe I'm thinking of a different community... :confused:

    Its to bad there's no way (That I know of) Of making map votes ,14,15,16,17, etc. Having to press two buttons farther away from one another would make it so you couldn't really spam. I started with 13 because 11 would be easily spammed also.

    Just creates the possibility of abuse. Zombie chasing Human, Human presses 1 instantly and the Zombie (lets say it's a new player) doesn't realize he has to vote in order to continue running.

    People usually spam one for either not knowing names of maps, are in stressed situations to look at names, or just don't care. If you could make the number one vote something that will look attractive and real to 1 spammers but is a null vote, that might help.

    Coincidentally i think this is one of the reasons why 1 gets spammed so much. When you are in the middle of the game and are trying to fend of hordes of zombies you just press 1 to get the voting options of the screen. You are to busy fighting to care. I say leave it as it is, a better solution to the whole problem would be just taking off the maps that most people hate (blue town). Then when you spam 1 it doesn't matter because its going to be a decent map anyway.

    Lol or we can just troll people, and make it if they vote 1 it auto kicks them for 1 spamming (jus a bit of sarcasm).

    I meant freeze everyone for a full 10 seconds, whether you vote instantly or not won't speed it up!

    yeah it'd get annoying, but so is 1 spam straight into an rtv, maybe it could be changed so that we vote after the last round ends and we get some form of waiting menu for a few seconds and then go straight into another map? I'm just blurting out ideas

    You are, just about every other zombie server has that null vote plugin that I've been trying to get us to take a look into. That and a recently played one so we don't end up going straight back to the map we played prior to the one we are just starting. It doesn't happen as much as it sounds like I'm saying but it happens quite enough.

    I would agree with Mr. Detonater on that. Make the 1st vote something like "I'm a mister gay", as I've seen (exactly) from a French server. I think it makes some difference.
