Hello so i have an idear and i ask me why dont creat a new server which will be an sinjar 24/7 server ??
 
There are A LOT of 24/7 sinjar maps, we got the people that like rotations, coming to our servers for the roatation.
 
We use to have a 24/7 sinjar, but after a while, with so many other servers like that it started dieing.
 
If you look at the list of servers, most of the 24/7's are either Dust2 OR Sinjar. Plus Sinjar is both used in BAS and BAR (other either 1 of the too, cant remember).
 
I think we need to import Left 4 dead maps in and use then for insurgency,think about it we all would fight the zombies, plus insurgence against marines,plus special infected, and we all need to make it to the safe house but only one side can win it so who ever is left marine or insurgent would win.....think about it its a really good idea....:)
 
well even if had the money for it, i wouldn't support the idea, the map is overrated, and there are enough servers playing 24/7 sinjar, so we should give the mainstream an alternative, like we do now, i am happy with the 4 servers we have now.

+1

I've noticed that players drop out of the server during sinjar when there are 16 players or less in there. Don't get me wrong, it's a fun map if everybody works as a team.
 
playing dust2 quite a lot, i would say that we don't really ned another server, like people have been saying, half of the servers are 24/7 sinjar and i think that having dust2 as an ego server brings variety.
 
Different approach?

When providing servers for the community, it is never possible to satisfy 100% of the members. Most of the configuration of the server is subject to change, based on the feedback/opinion of the MAJORITY of the people.

So, the 1st question/poll should be:
Does the map cycle need revising?
Let the community decide if the current setup should be changed!

I have a process in mind, for how to determine what maps to use, based on community feedback, but it requires a few motivated individuals for it to succeed.

In general, though, most gaming "providers" of Source based games (TF2 / CS / INS, etc) have at least 2 servers, one "static" map server (eg. 24x7 Dust2) and another with a small map rotation (3 or 4 maps).
As Ice hearted killer said, eGO doesn't have the money to add a new server to the mix right now.

Personally, I think the Dust2 server was a good call, as it has helped me in the transition from CS to INS.

As Epic mentioned, we had a 24/7 Sinjar server back before BAS and BAR came along, it wasn't doing so well which was part of the reason that BAS and BAR were created.

Nades clan runs a 24/7 Sinjar server that had held the #1 spot for a long time, recently our Dust_2 server took that title (woo!) but even still, if we put up another 24/7 Sinjar server, it would be directly competing with the long established Nades server.

BAS and BAR are currently ranked 3rd(tied) and 8th respectively, which is not a bad showing especially since we're losing some people to the new Custom Map server.
