OLDZ week instead of just a weekend

[proof]

Go ahead, remove the vote penalty next weekend

The fact is, regardless of what proof will bleat about skilled players moonlighting playing race, muh ut-zone community, 1on1, etc. that in general, race players are sticking with this amateur gametype in a ten year old game because they are bad, and don't actually want this gametype to be designed or have any depth whatsoever - they are here because they want it to be broken, as that way they don't have to compete with anyone or even actually drive, in the case of maps they can bug. The aforementioned skilled players didn't get good from playing OLDZ, they got good from playing combat gametypes and if they want an occasional break in a troll gametype, whatever - they're not my major concern, the noobs are. In the face of that, I'm surprised RACE lasted as long as it did. A lot of these players played what was OLDZ for YEARS before LDG tried to turn the gametype into "Race" rather than "Sit in base with a set of twin beams and shoot everyone who comes out", so we've always known what the players really wanted.]

What are you talking about? OLDZ is the most awesome gameplay ever with excellent balance and solid depth.

Filtering troll face was the best thing I ever did.

Writing this down here, as I don't see a need to start a new topic.

Can we for the next OLDZ weekend remove the vote penalty from OLDZ maps? Because currently calling the first weekend of the month "OLDZ weekend" is pretty moot when we have 10 people who want to play and vote for OLDZ, get outweighted by 5 people voting for RACE...
Calling it "a weekend with a chance to play an OLDZ map" would make a lot more sense in the current situation. Besides, it is only one weekend, being forced to play maps that are on the server every other day of the month is not really what one would expect from an event called "OLDZ weekend"...

I agree, those who don't like it can "sacrifice" one weekend a month not playing... (or coming for AS maps only )

OK, let's have the best and most pro gametype ever carry no penalty then.

OLDZ was a success
