Would it be possible to make one of The Ville servers a Custom Map server where the players would vote on a map at the end of each game? Not a normal ballot vote, but rather one which gives you six options. You could set the default map to Avanti so that if nobody voted it would always go back to Avanti.

I have been playing on a server like this recently, and it is great. What makes it work is that the clan that runs it has a downloadable self-installing zip file on their website with all the server maps. This way you can download all the server maps at once and install them without knowing anything about computers.

This way we would get to play all of our favorite custom maps more often. I have noticed that when custom maps come up there is nobody to play them, and the server time is wasted. If you put up six selections at the end of each game for people to choose from, we are guarenteed a new custom map each time. Also, make it so there is no minimum votes needed to change the map.
