arent you on the team that picks propaganda and bans sunshine

ᵇʳᵘʰ

nah, a team has the right to refuse to play a map they don't want to play

I would be happy if scrims just started on time

just please let me practice granary man we play sunshine every night

how to make sure your team never gets scrims

you are on my team fool you helped make this decision
edit: also im talking about scrims not matches. we literally do not ban any maps in scrims we play all of them

I literally told you not to do this

easy fix is you just use the ESEA playoff veto system, you both get to not play something you dont want to play and you both get to pick something you do want to play, its a simple 5 minute solution to all this.

I've been doing this with most of my scrim opponents lately and its worked out great and everyone was happy to cooperate :)

EDIT: here you go, save the copy pasta and message your opponents before the game!

The map pool is: cp_sunshine, cp_metalworks, cp_granary_pro_rc8, koth_product_rc8, cp_process_final, cp_gullywash_final1, cp_snakewater_final1, cp_badlands, cp_propaganda_b13

The high seed decides which team is Team A and which team is Team B.

1) Team A remove a map
2) Team B remove a map
3) Team A pick the first map of the best of three
4) Team B pick the second map of the best of three
5) Team A remove a map
6) Team B remove a map
7) Team A remove a map
(?) Team B remove a map
9) The final remaining map will be the third, if required, map of the best of three.

You should ask the other team before scrim if they even want to do your euro maps lol

if you play their map, they should play your map. if you don't want to play a map, agree to ban maps before the scrim starts.

when esea fucking dies u guys should try the way etf2l rotates map

then u play "this weeks maps"

good fucking RIDDANCE

except that team that has an official early in the week whilst everyone has theirs on thursday.
so you get a warmup scrim before your official and they want to play next weeks map because "we already played our official"

and except when you find a unicorn (UGC team) that wants to play some randomass map

when has that ever been a problem ? dont people have manners anymore ?

and then you end up blacklisting everyone

it's tougher outside of prem

Issues only arise if teams are several weeks desynced which occurs when teams die in div2+. But if desync is just a week it means you at least get to play 1 map that is relevant to you and the only team really screwed over is the team ahead in weeks as they do not need to practise a map from the past.

Also what Ombrack said, I don't really remember any issues even before getting into prem this season. Maybe it's rude for me to say this but often times people who complain about lower level teams not having manners also may not have manners themselves.

Also simplified there's only two possibilities if the other team already played their official:
1. They are not massive dickheads and agree to play the "old" map as well. -> no problem
2. They are massive dickheads so they are also 20 minutes late even though you told them you've got an official and you can only play one map anyway. -> no problem

Pick ban is dumb. Bring back weekly maps.
