A *really* hacky method of getting around needing a mapchange is to write a sourcemod plugin to do so for you.
Right now our servers are set up to start on badwater, and obviously need a mapchange to go into the QP pool, so I wrote a little SM plugin named "zztop" (lol) - the naming is so it's loaded last in line. It simply exec's a config file that sets a load_lock on the plugins and then unloads the zztop plugin, then changes the map again to badwater. Once the load lock is in effect, the plugin won't be loaded upon the next mapchange so it won't indefinitely loop changelevels. On Mon, Nov 7, 2011 at 4:13 PM, E.
