These have been running for the last few days. I took PTB off but will be putting a poll up to see if it should be brought back (you need to know life without first).

- ircaction (/me type irc actions)
- ultimate_democracy (a whole bunch of votes are available - type "admin_help vote" in console for more info)
- ejl_timebomb (timebomb vote to turn someone into a kamakazie player to send into the opposition)
- blattvote - advance map voting script to, among other things, stop the same maps coming back over and over. Usage commands follow.

Player Usage
Map Voting Plugin
The following commands can be 'said' by any player by using the chat key (default is 'y')

listmaps
Displays 3 map names that are on the server. This command runs automatically every 2 minutes. (Administrator can change the frequency of the automated announcement)
nominate MAPNAME
vote MAPNAME
Adds a map to the menu for the next vote. Both commands do the same thing. The map name is accepted with or without the '.bsp' extension, and anything in front of the first underscore is optional. Additionally, the words 'nominate' or 'vote' can be dropped and just the map name said. However, in this case, no errors are reported if the map doesn't exist. e.g.
nominate de_dust.bsp Nominates dust.
nominate de_dust Nominates dust.
nominate dust.bsp Nominates dust.
nominate dust Nominates dust.
vote de_dust Nominates dust.
de_dust Nominates dust.
dust Nominates dust.
vote de_dsut Gives map 'de_dsut' not found error.
dsut Does nothing - no error displayed.

nominations
Displays the currently nominated maps. This also happens automatically every 2 minutes, or at the frequency specified by the administrator.
timeleft
currentmap
nextmap
All display the time left before the next vote and the current map. However, if the plugin is disabled by an admin, they revert to their normal behaviour from plugin_chat.
rockthevote
Will start an immediate vote, if sufficient time has passed on the current map and the administrator has enabled this function. NOTE: A manually started vote will always have a "stay on this map" option, regardless of the administrator settings for bb_mapextend. However, voting for this option will not extend the time on the map, it will simply not change map early.

All the new additions are great, the stats at the end of your round are a nice touch. Bomb timer isnt as nessicary, but is good.

I would like to see the teambalance reimplemented, it is missed [Blocked image]

Good on the plugins, like the stats, even though I don't always like what they read [Blocked image] !

PTB! I liked it when the higher scoring players swapped to the lagging team (Not always possible with even teams and PTB make it seamless!).

However, being usually at the bottom end of the food chain, it does tend to swap you so you stay there! Not just myself, but other players in the same boat. It works well in a TEAM based way but disadvantaging players. Yes, CS is team based, but with players swapping sides always it doesn't work that way when no war is on.

Is there any way to tweak it so it evens up on a PLAYER based level. I don't know even if this is a good idea! Just my thoughts on it.

And if it came to a vote, I'd probably be negative based on that.
