A classics week?

[Da Jinks]

Wanted to throw a idea up in the air.

I had the idea for a "classics week". Where we take 10 maps that havent been in the rotation for a while and for a week do put em back in! We could vote over the forum for our favorite maps and lobby! Any thoughts?

Nice idea - only thing is, this sorta happens anyway when the rotation is changed. Also, 10 maps for a week is a bit lacking. Did a bit of math, if every round lasted about 8 minutes, assuming no server downtime, each map would be played ~125 times in that week. Waayyy to often. ;P

I like this idea to tough. Some old maps are really nice.
Like we have an "oldies" rotation

Also, that means we play 1000 maps in one week nill? =O

I miss the oldies…
I also like the idea but maybe it could be changed a bit to suit?

This idea could also be put into other categories for other rotations... "Oldies" week, "Favorite Levels" week, "Least Favorite Levels week," "The Staff's Pick of the Week" rotation, "Holiday Rotation" (put in the Holiday themed maps), and etc.

I like this, and it could possibly be sorted into a category of suggestion that JKangaroo mentioned [specialized rotations].
It reminds me of my old suggestion that never got decided on;
http://blocktopia.net/forum/threads/the-friday-runner-rotation.999/

Now that IntensiK [the anti-runner map HC] is gone, I'd like to see what the HCs think about these new, 'special' rotations.

Also, Jinks, this would probably be better suited for Suggestions, but still a good idea nonetheless.

Assuming each map is 10 minutes long, and there's no downtimee, we play about 1000 - knowing that few maps actually make it to 10 minutes, yes, we play a good bit more than 1000.

You still have me. :] I tend to favor maps with themes instead of adminium jump courses.

Great idea, it really is but as it has been said previously it would just be too few maps, people would get sick of them I know I definetly would. But if there was more maps say 25-35 then I am all for it as long as it isnt the stupid overplayed maps. I also wouldn't like to see runner maps in abundance if it was in, while I am a runner it is very unfair to those players that are not it would be the same people living every round and I dont want that I want the gameplay to enjoyable and fair to everybody. So runner maps in a limited amount (2-4) are okay but please no more than that.

How about 3 days or something shorter?

I like Hockeyfans idea. Its short enough that 10 maps wouldnt be that bad right?
