posting just to be bitched at for such a brilliant request
how about, every so often the US/UK servers "lose" the core maps so that people might have to *gasp* play something new?!!? All day everyday its almost a solid rotation of Duku (more than one version), w00t (more than one version), Control (more than one version) and a couple others mixed in. Map vote is great, but when you have so many versions of the same map it makes it hard to go to something else.. and what makes it really hard is when 5 people vote for a non standard map and 2 people decide they want to vote w00t, thus negating the majority.... Maybe do something about that so the majority actually can have a say on the rare times they actually vote for something that hasnt been burned into my retinas?
Yes, people like to play maps they know, but if they never play other maps they will never know them!
oh, and ban shots for being a poopyhead. grins
