By request of Yeroen in another thread, I arranged an online voting survey for the map preferences of Dueling Duos:

http://aobduos.uservoice.com

Please cast your 10 votes on this website !!!

Closing date : end of June (or sooner if necessary)

Spread the word ONLINE !!!

Excellent! I'll see if we can update the message of the day on the main menu of the game to point people to this.

Can you put up some pictures of each map.
I've played close to 1000 games but have never looked at the map names when they pop up.

How does our voting affect the duos settings? Are the top 10 maps? 15? 20? going to be the maps we play? Will our voting affect how often each map is played? These are a few questions I would like answered before I cast my votes please.

All your questions are still completely open for discussion :-) I just set up the uservoice page to survey which Dueling Duos maps are the most favourite.

How we will translate that to the final matchmaking preferences for Dueling Duos, will be decided here on the forum when we have a decent amount of votes.

So any suggestions how we do that are more than welcome !

Maybe Yeroen can clarify what is possible with the matchmaking system concerning the amount of maps in rotation ?

If we know how all can be set up from Yeroen, we can discuss how many maps we want to play in the rotation and which weight we give to each map depending on the votes the map got from the survey.

BTW, everyone is still able to edit/change their votes on the uservoice page, when the survey is still open !

Easy question - it's completely open-ended, there is no limit on maps and the frequencies are completely flexible.

   I think we should have all the maps on duos. It keeps the game from getting to boring and predictable. The maps that most agree are bad maps have zero or one vote. These maps should have one wieght so that we don't see them very often but every once in a while they pop up and make things interesting. Everyone may not agree with me but I dont think there is any map on here so bad it should be taken from the rotation. I know Dasef agreed with me on this. What does everyone else think? Should we put all the maps into play for duos?

Due to lack of interest in the online voting (so far 90 votes = 9 people), I extended the period of time, the online voting survey page is open.

Come on people, if you want some change, do the action

I'll tell people I play with and against about this. Maybe I can get a few more to vote.

Is this thing ever going to happen??

I'm back after a long hiatus - sorry. I will point our new guy to these forums, finally get him involved. I think he goes by Obi1mccarthy.
