Rock the vote!

[Velzerat]

Inspired by this: http://blocktopia.net/forum/threads/map-trials.17629/. I think it would be nice to have some kind of !rtv command in the game which can be used, say, the first five minutes of a map. If a certain percentage of the players would do !rtv, the map would end (no one would get cookies) and a new vote would begin. This is mostly useful in case an ugly map everyone hates somehow gets voted for (Biomes, for example) or if it's the same map in a row.

Example thing that could show up when someone does /rtv:

To the player that did /rtv:

You have voted to rock the vote.
7 more players needed.
You will not get reiceve (super)cookies if the vote is rocked.

To the other players:

Wimali_Stebox has voted to rock the vote. 7 more players needed.
You will not get receive (super)cookies if the vote is rocked.

If someone would try after the time limit has been reached:

It's too late to rock the vote! This can only be done the first five minutes of the map.

EDIT: Actually, I believe the time limit should maybe be 10 minutes after the start of the map, or 15 minutes in the case of a classic map.

maybe an extra map option? If its not neccecary in the first place it could get spammy

Meh

Perhaps your feedback on the matter might be infinitely more valued.

Well, the thing is, its redundant. If people vote for a map, chances are they like it. If not, why was the map voted for more than the others? Plus, if its really a crappy map nobody likes, it can be removed from rotation. That's why I don't think think its all that useful.

EDIT: Sorry for making it look like you double posted. My last post was pointless so I removed it.

Honestly I like your idea but I believe that it could be edited a lot to be more suitable for others because not every player has the same map preferences. But I like your thinking, also very detailed if this were to be passed they wouldn't have to do much to get it up and running. :)

This would be good for maps that aren't very good for annoyed and angry moods such as ones with large amounts of water or ice as they can produce a lot of lag.

If the majority doesn't like a map, why just not vote on the forums to remove it from rotation?

Well, sometimes things aren't as simple as everyone wanting a map removed. Sometimes a lot of people collectively agree they don't want to play a certain map at a certain time. Maybe some maps are more fun with less or more people and the number of players on at that time doesn't account for it. Rock the vote was a feature of our TTT server and it was used very frequently. If a lot of people collectively agree that they actually want a map removed from the server then that's totally cool and people can PM their Director or make a post about it in the map error report, but I feel RTV does have it's uses and might be something that's good for RoF.

I was kind of going off Wimali's statement in the original post declaring 'An ugly map that everyone hates' with the mention of 'biomes' afterwards.
