Java Stone ranks choosing maps

[DrProfessorOwl]

So in the past, people with stone rank used to be able to choose maps. For a reason I don't know of, it got removed. Can you bring it back?

Yes i like the idea, it will help a lot of stone ranks outa there.

I don't think it's a good idea, since there used to be posters to choose maps, but CubeCraft has taken a step forward and I think that if they put that for the Stone ranks, the ones that have some kind of range, they don't have an advantage when choosing a map.

Then I suggest that people with a rank can start a lobby with a map that is unavailable, while people without a rank can choose maps that are available.

Of course, that would be a very good idea, since those with a Diamond/Emerald/Obsidian rank can "create" maps that are not currently available. I like this very much, +1.

This has been requested numerous times. And i don't think its a good idea to select the exact map but the size like teams of 4 etc. So that its still better to buy a rank.

btw: Can you add a poll so people can vote?

As it currently stands, donators have a vote weight of 1.00 points. If stone ranked players would have any voting abilities, I would suggest making stone rank either 0.25 weighted vote points or 0.50 weighted vote points, this way having a donation rank still has plenty of incentive. :D

 

[ElementThink]

I agree on @TyFoxy if this should exist then a rank should get a advantage on that. Because they paid for more perks.

i dont think this is a good idea it ruins the donators thing :(

Hmm, I think no

That's why you should give people with a rank the ability to choose unavailable maps, while you give the people without a rank the ability to choose available maps. This still gives the people with a rank an advantage on the people without a rank.

What if people with no ranks had something such as: "three free daily map selections" while ranks do not have a limit at all. It would still be better than nothing.

So you probably think that, “only ranked players don’t support this!” As a stone ranker, I tell you that this should not change. When the summer sale happens I will be buying iron rank just for this feature. I think for money reasons this needs to stay the same as it takes away the value of Iron Rank. I would like if you are in a party it only put you in maps that your party can fit into. I hope you understand and I would consider having 3 map selections a day but then again it just takes away from the value of the ranks. (A good amount of Cubecraft’s revenue)

I sort of agree with this, however, I think that CubeCraft should limit what stone-ranks can select. A system similar to Hypixel would work in my opinion. Stone-ranks can only select maps for games which has teams. They would be allowed to select the map based on the number of players per team, for example, Doubles, Trios, Squads. While they wouldn't be able to select the exact map, they would be able to choose if they'd want to be on a big team or small one. And with regards to allowing ranks to startup unavailable servers, I don't know much about servers much but I think that would cause a lot of lag if abused, especially considering that hundreds, if not thousands of people with ranks play on cube craft every day.

I am against stone rank's voting. Because then why would I have paid for my rank. And for choosing maps, also a no, because it probs take filling a map too long when noone joins.

It was likely implemented due to loss of players; so people aren't spread over lots of maps. How it is now concentrates them, so they won't have to wait an eternity to play on their map.
