Good post Richard. Got a question myself about the mapcycle you may know about... in my mapcycle.txt file (my maplist.txt is just as yours is) I have the nine maps, plus I added maps like aztec, dust2 and italy in there an extra time each, the reason being to have the server cycle to the more popular maps a bit more often. It seems tho now that some maps are not coming up at all in rotation, like de_piranesi. I am wondering if there is some sort of limit or exception imposed on how you can setup your mapcycle.txt file.
