Two things in Quake that ruined the game. Hook damage and voting maps. Tonight, DM6 more the 4 times in a row??? Other times, players come on in the middle of a game and do nothing but try to vote a map change. Don't even ask if the playing players want to end the current map. All you see is the vote statement over and over again. You would think that after 2 times, the vote starter would get it thru his thick skull no one wants a change. It's a nice feature if there are a couple, or 3 players playing and a smaller map is desired. But to be in to a 9-15 player game and do nothing but see the vote statement and then wait for a change in maps instead of playing is a waste of playing time. It's abused..... E1M7, DM6 over and over and over again. Naturally, I don't expect anything to change... nothing ever does on the server.... just venting I guess.
Why can't they wait until the current map is finished then start the vote at the start of the next map?

Yeah, I know of one that keeps voting for the start map soon as he joins. I told him that we weren't his parents- we're not here to keep hearing you whine. No good that did!

Perhaps if person A creates a vote for a new map and it doesn't pass, disallow person A from voting for a new map for say 5 minutes.
