As a 6v6 player, I hate playing most 5CP maps in pubs. More PL, A/D, and KOTH suits an ever-changing team of 12 largely non-communicating players much better. However, as I'm not representative of HH servers' main traffic I don't think the maps have anything to do with the lack of traffic.
As a non-serious player I hate playing 5CP maps on HH1 when everyone turtles and hugs the medic. (And I can't kill them because let's face it, I can't play good and there's almost always at least 2-3 players together. )
HH1 is for "pro" players, but they don't come there because they are just not used to it anymore... Laziness over good gameplay for them.
I suggest having RTV on the server. It's quite depressing to seed 1 hour only to have some crappy map(Warmfront) pass through the vote(no matter why people vote for it or don't vote at all) and see people suddenly starting to mass quit and there's nothing you can do about it.
I also think there's something wrong with the mentality of your average HH1'er. If it's not 5cp map it's not worth playing properly and then the team play goes out the window.
Personally I play on THG these days because they're willing to play plr and thundermountain.

Ewww PLR maps
But then I like steel, a loverly AvD map with lots of tight twisty indoors bits and a pit of doom... just right for a pyro to flank, ambush, and shove people into the aforementioned pit.
But 5CP wins the map vote because of the way the voting runs that the top 2 maps from the first round(if no map wins 50%) get voted on , and almost always there's a 5cp map
Dont get me wrong, I love playing 5cp maps(well some of them), but even so, I still need the variety of AvD or PL maps and the much hilarity of driving an oversized bomb on a minecart into an enemy base.
Oh and the only AvD maps we play are gorge and gravelpit. But then playing Avd elsewhere is burning my way through butter in comparision to playing on HH... which is why I do play on HH

only 36 hrs left until the plague of pyros........
I'd like to see this, maybe more in the evening when 1 bad map could kill it, it doesn't make much difference to me personally but I think it would help.

Re: Good night, sweet prince
While we're on the subject, a nominate feature would be great. I've never known why the HH servers didn't have these things on them.
