Exclamation Do you VOTE?

After voting for 15 maps out of the current ballot of contendors for rotation, I noticed single digit vote totals. This week isn't a "lower than usual" turnout; in fact, it's higher than usual. This seems to be a recurring problem.

Come on people! These numbers can't possibly represent well what members want for maps. Despite the joking air of CTF-w00tabulous being in rotation often, there are certainly some people who detest it. (I'm not here to either promote nor bash a map, I'm just using a polarizing example.) But how does the general emmber like it? No idea. There just aren't enough people voting to absolutely say how well liked w00tabulous is.

So, please, vote often! I think we've all read enough threads stating opnions one way and the other on various maps. Try using that energy where it actually counts

NEW VOTING OPTION
Make it so that we can use our votes to vote against certain maps. Bye-Bye W00tspamulous, HallOfRedundance, Burning( hemrroids), ECT. I'll bet many more people would vote if they knew that they could do that. I know I would!

Oh yes!
Please no more Woot. Excellent suggestion Ghost.

Plus and minus, let's vote for the good and the bad.

I used to hate w00t too but it's a lot more fun when you learn the trick for staying out of the spam. Or play it on s3. Save that minus vote for EternalCaves or XtremeCrater.

Cheers,
