Instead of timing vote and menu looking like:
1. No vote
2. consider blah blah blah
3. blahblah blah thoughtlessly
4. de_
5. de_
6. de__
7. de__
8 de__


i think it vote should be changed to this and take place at the end of a round.

consider blah blah blah .... blah blah thoughtlessly
1. de_
2. de_
3. de_
4. de__ OR extend map for 15 minutes (just an idea)
5 No vote

The reason being its hard to choose a vote past 5 especially when the map votes come mid round. its also really hard to pick thoughtlessly when its mid round. vote needs to occur after the round ends. also with the current system players only really choose 1/4/5. i predict a better spread of votes with the second one

Peoplel usually spam votes. There's a topic on this. Anyway instead of going back to the initial design, why not have a command where we can disable map voting with it turned on by default?

People still spam 4. The only way to make it work is to actually change numbers, for example one map vote - 4,5,6,7,8 for maps, and on another map 5,6,7,8,9. This way is even better. OR 2,3,4,5,6 and 4,5,6,7,8 - this one even better.

Map voting always starts 3 mins before map ends, if I recalled correctly.

Is it possible to adjust it to appear depending on the number of rounds, instead of map time. For example, in the beginning of the 7th round or as chun suggested the end of a round.

Main issue I see that voting mid-game(or while firing) can be a hindrance and thats why people spam votes.

Yup, after the last round ended.

this might seem to be a bad idea, but how about disabling chat when voting is in progress?
