Good to have this discussion but guess what, it will only cause flame, feeding Komo the forum troll and most probably ending up changing nothing.
Having the idea of "let the whole community have a vote" sounds good in paper, but doesn't really work in our community, which has more and more newer players coming and old ones leaving.
Like you can't vote until your over certain age, because of lack of experience, same thing applies here. Someone needs find their 2 hanging nuts, grab them and start making some decisions IF the emphasis is on catering more of us competitive players, which it seems to be not. Let's be real here, nothing has changed except girders in T17 and Hysteria (premature ejaculation anyone?). Example of Roper that Anubis brought up is a good one, we start blaming the player for being "lame" if he starts hiding on top from the start, when the scheme enables it as a good tactic and from competitive point of view, it would be simply stupid to not utilize the most effective gameplay. If we would play with money on stake, you can bet your ass hiding on top would be the only hide for the player who starts. Who would pick Hysteria with money on stake (if he has stronger more skill-based scheme to pick from), because let's be real here, you only have 1 second to execute your move which leaves a lot to be desired from "skill point of view" EVEN if you are really experienced in the scheme. Just as I wouldn't pick Team17 with money on stake because when 2 equal T17 minds face-off, it has too much emphasis on cr8s, same with Shopper on relatively easy map where hiding tactics are out of the equation, etc... Schemes are over 10 years old, if you really think they don't need any polishing then god damn the original scheme creators have been Wormy Einsteins to say the least.
