[Rejected] ZE expert maps change

[F00L]

So after some time thinking I have finnaly decided that this will be better for the server, and its a change to the amount of players needed to play expert maps on ZE. Lets be honest here, SG ZE isnt populated as much as it was before, now there are mostly around 34-36 players at most daily, and yes I know there are exceptions like a weekend where the average amount would be 40, but still. Most of the time there is one chance to play an expert map daily, and to fix that problem I thought about making the needed player count from 40 to 34 or 35. This will atleast make us play 2 expert maps or more daily for sure.

35 is a good number to play some of our expert maps, while not enough for some of our other maps. On some of our expert maps, it is fine to say 35 players is enough but on other maps you need more than 40 players to play the map. But since our max number of players on the server are 48 players, we have to keep it to 40 or else we will never get the opportunity to play some of our expert maps. It’s pretty much the decesions from @Cept For Her @Agent Wesker to change the map nomination player count, but I do agree with changing some of our expert maps so we are able to play them more often.

Maybe we could have an extreme 1 and an extreme 2 category, with 1 having a player requirement of 35 and being able to be beat with that many people, and the second group at 40 because we cant really raise it with the lowered player cap.

Ye we can do that too

After a bit of discussion, Wesker and I decided that its probably best to keep the Expert category of maps at the required 40 Players minimum. However if any of you feel there are any maps that shouldn't be listed in [Expert] but instead in the [Hard] map section, then feel free to make a thread listing all the maps you feel should be moved. Our reasoning for wanting to keep the required minimum of players is because while we don't get to play those maps as often, when people can't beat them or have fun on them they leave the server giving people less of a reason to join and play, so lowering the minimum would only start the server out at a lower player count to lose and kill the population at the time.

I understand that this does not necessarily happen with every Expert/Hard map but when it does the server usually loses about half of its players, and we would like to keep the population as high as possible while maintaining fun in the server (which those maps arent really fun without a bunch of people on anyways). Thanks for the suggestion but the player caps are going to stay, but the categories maps are in are always welcome to be rearranged
