^ Seconded
I did play on the warpath server for a bit... Sadly, like 2fort, it got old pretty fast. Faster, since the most players we seemed to be able to bring in at one time was 4. I woulda hung around a lot longer if we had the half-hourly rotation.

Aye, valve rotation would be nice. I've played there and the most I've seen there is like 4-5 & warpath sux w/ bots.

Hmm... didn't know there was a market for such a server
I can put all the standard TFC maps into the rotation, or a limited number... maybe just the "popular" ones. Input anyone?

Full rotation plzktnx!
You know I've yet to play the new TFC map.. Raven, or whatnot?
But in deference to the people who actually play TFC a lot, as much as I'd hate to say it, ye should probably allow map voting.

A Jiggly's full, map rotation server would be fun, but cut the time down to 30 minutes rather than a whole hour. Its difficult staying 100% for a whole hour.

2fort
well
badlands
epicenter
crossover2
warpath
reg 30 min valve rotation is good, mapvote might be good too. =]
I cant remember the rest atm..
PLEASE dont put canalzone on there.. omg that map sux when people dont know how to play it.
If you want to throw a custom map on there, maybe shutdown2 or cablestfc (cables_tfc?), openfire_l, vidars?
Maybe put on a fun map like scrummage, don_warfare, skeeball_beta04, freefall or minigolf or something? I can list a ton of maps, the problem is that nobody is gonna want to download custom maps tho.. might get em to download em if they're like fun maps..
I had a few servers from Ruiner (Konspiracy now Edges Game servers) and I ran one that was just DM & SA maps and another that was just fun maps and 2 regular rotation servers (1 of which was my clan practice/private server). The fun server, it actually was quite busy for a while before TFC totally petered out. One of the servers I ran was Another Damn TFC Server (ADTS) while I was in [NHB], and ADTS II.
ADTS was run at my buddy's office, he had a T3 line there. The others were from Ruiner & Konspiracy.
If your gonna load a custom map, load only one at a time otherwise people wont stick around.
Also may want to consider some admins maybe? Or maybe the admins will play on the server more if it's not 24/7 2fart...

Thanks for the rotation JP, any way you can shorten map time? 30 min would be nice. Gets old when there's only 3 people and 3 bots on the server. But thanks again for the rotation. =]

Update the server with a 30 min mapcycle and the following rotation:
Server:
hostname: Jigglypuff's TFC Jigglyroom!
version : 47/1.1.2.1/Stdio 3651 secure
tcp/ip : 72.35.235.130:27015
map : 2fort at: 0 x, 0 y, 0 z
players : 6 active (32 max)
# name userid uniqueid frag time ping loss adr
# 1 "AdolffOliverbush:)" 1 UNKNOWN 49 28:01 0 0
# 2 "seamore_hiney" 2 UNKNOWN 106 28:01 0 0
# 3 "Yes,we_have_no_bananas" 3 UNKNOWN 75 28:01 0 0
# 4 "EPISODE_2_Better_be_Good" 4 UNKNOWN 50 28:01 0 0
# 5 "OLDandINyourWAY" 12 UNKNOWN 73 28:01 0 0
# 6 "PenifinMouf" 13 UNKNOWN 23 28:01 0 0
6 users
Mapcycle:
casbah
well
dustbowl
flagrun
avanti
2fort
ravelin
As always, adjusted it so that more popular maps appear in between less popular maps... it's a forumla that's worked for us in the past.

I say you bring back my favorite server of all time, Jigglypuff's OTHER Jigglyroom. Ah, rock2, casbah and epicenter goodness. I know there was a 4th map, and i think it was well.

I know the rotation already seems pretty full, is there anyway to add in Rock2, badlands, and maybe epicenter? Maybe replace flagrun

Badlands would be nice...
...although I know Jiggly is a badlands h8r.
Rock2 has some of the most comical moments of any TFC map. Was so disapointed it wasn't one of the first maps to be ported to FF.

Yar yes it was good times. Playing normally on rock 2 was fun, but hornet and I invented a sort of spy hide and seek that we would play. Find a hiding spot, feign death, etc. It was even more fun when people were still capping and we had to go find a suit and or water every 5 mins.
I'm on the fence about badlands. I really only like it because it makes for some good conc jumping opportunities.
