See the BANNED Maps Tab. Maps lasting on Average over 12 Rounds - Players VOTED to BAN them! Take too long on these settings and the Super League is fast moving!

Could we put forward a motion to increase the ban round requirement to 13 rounds? It unlocks a few extra maps and will certainly shake up the Super League 'meta' so to speak?
Banning a map on rounds is actually a really strange way of doing it when we have 'round limit' in place as a setting. Why not just make every game a 20 round limit and be done with it? If a map keeps going to round limit consider banning it for that reason?
See Above, Super League Players voted in HUGE Numbers for Maps taking on Average longer than 12 Rounds to be BANNED due to time it takes to play. Lowest C Round Limit is 20 Rounds so that is not an option. The Magic number is 12.
Only exception is you can choose a RANDOM MAP as you HOME Map. As the frequency of RANDOM Maps will still be under 12 Rounds although occaisionally it will throw up something longer.

The issue is once a map is banned it remains banned indefinitely because there are fewer examples of that map cropping up to change the percentile.
Feudal war case in point, if we look at super league settings on that map across the entire website instead of the small amount you have in your sample size the round limit drops drastically.
Similarly, how can we ban Trafalgar and not Trafalaxy? They are the same map with different art work…

Not exactly, in Trafalgar the command ships count as 1, on Trafalaxy they count as 2 ships.. that's a very big difference if your going for 5 spanish ships in the weather or 5 Lynx alliace in chrononout.. it's also the reason why Trafalaxy is way faster then Trafalgar
The thing that makes those maps long and daunting for newer players are the fort and attack routes. Not the bonuses. If we played SL settings on Trafalaxy and Trafalgar do you really believe there would be a significant round difference? No. If the only thing we wanted to change was game length you’d remove adjacent forts but let’s not go down that rabbit hole.
There should be an overview of maps that are banned. Or at least the ones close to 12. I know Craig isn’t keen on votes to challenge his ego but attracting more players should be the goal no?
