Why only 1 Match per Map?

<div class="IPBDescription">tendency on several servers</div>Hello,

all the good servers seem to switch the map after one match. Why is that? It's a little sad, there should be at least 2 matches per map. It hasn't been like that some weeks ago...

Reasons? Thoughts?

    It is better for performance in slower servers.

    I see. But the fast ones do it, too. Or are you implying, that there are no servers actually capable of playing 2 rounds on 1 map fluidly?

    Where are these mystical servers that you think of? I can only ever find 24/7 Veil servers.

    Then either your server browser is broken or you are not playing on EU servers? :D

    Maybe you are in a different timezone than me but most servers I play on do 2-3 rounds on a map before they switch.

    What servers are you talking about? Most of the good servers are running a mapvote which allows the players in the game to determine when and what-map to switch.

    The norcal server switches maps about every two rounds. It will also soon have the rock the vote mod.

    The servers I play only ever change map if players vote for it.
