How to get people to play Smolensk Options

[M@ster of Dis@ster]

Play CTF on Smolensk today, and it was fairly fun. I love Base Assult, but this was different. Only problem...no tanks. Not sure if everyone would like that mode, but like I said, I had fun. You could try that.

However, here's the other way...

Both BA servers rotate between Barbarbossa and Smolensk between each game. No two set matches.

Even if you just do it for a couple weeks, people would at least try Smolensk again. Be sure to have all fixes in place, and rename the map slightly (SmolenskRedux or something).

You might piss off a few dedicate Barbarbossa people, but right now, you can't get into Barbossa 80% of the time, while Smolensk is usually empty. Even a half full game in Smolensk on BA is little fun. Usually over in minutes. Rotaste the maps on both servers, force people to try it, then go back to dedicated servers. If Smolensk doesn't take off after that, it wasn't meant to be.

Or try CTF.

Those were my thoughts.
