User blog:CorrosiveDragon/(4/09/2016) Regarding Queued Map Games

Dear all users involved in Map Games,

Reason
According to rule #4  in the Wikia Rules, only a maximum of 5 map games were allowed to be active because this Wikia can easily be flooded with Map Games (even more than now). Thus, this rule was created for a specific reason.

However, someone thought it was a good idea to create a Map Game Queue category. After the creation of this category, many users started creating a bunch of map games in which the Queue is getting larger and larger. This category destroyed the whole purpose of "First come, first serve."

By adding this queue, it will take longer for map games to reach to the top of the queue (imagine having 200 map games in the queue and you want to create a map game, would you rather be quick with creating your map game as soon as one map game becomes inactive, or wait x number of map games before your map game becomes playable).

In addition, the map game queue is just a way to bypass rule #4. In other words, extending the limit.

A few weeks ago, we discussed that the category should be removed but because of recent uncontrollable circumstances, I was unable to do so.

Change
All map games in the queue will be moved to template pages where you can still review your map game. However, in order for your map game to become active, you must follow the logic of "First come, first serve." This was how the organzation of map games functioned before the creation of Map Game Queue category. '''Do not create a map game if the Active Map Games category contains 5 map games. (Any extentensions will be reviewed carefully and will be marked for deletion if necessary).'''

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesistate to ask.

Regards,

CorrosiveDragon
