When you click random maps you can play all of the 200 maps there is at CC. I was wondering if it is possible to let's say : i like about 20-25 maps on this site, could i create a random box ( let's put it thaT WAY ) where i could put those 20 maps in there and just click on '' my random '' maps to have a mix of my 20-25 favorite maps, so people who would play me would know i only got 20-25 maops on my random maps.

p.s.: do you guys understand what i mean ?

yes i understand the one problem is it becomes difficult for people joining games to know what your random maps are and then see if they want to join that set of random maps instead of another game with a different set of random maps...see what i mean?

What if, when this was selected, it had to choose from common maps between the players in the game?

What if the players had no common "my random" maps?

Then it could either be a map that is on neither list or a default map. Classic, for example.

A solution could be to make an Excel file and make a random choise of the maps you like each time you make a game.
Of course opponents can see which map they play before they join this way.

But it is probably to difficult to code to let each player make there own set of random maps.

Why not post a list of of your maps in callouts and set up private games inviting someone to each based on your own random draw. As the OP is premium this would be possible.

Or what if Random map actually returned 5 maps for all players to vote on (within 24 hours). If there was a tie, then it would be randomly decided between those two. Would make for an interesting twist. You could quick map rank your opponents to find their weakest map. Also would take some team work to ensure you all vote on the same map.

I would like to have categories like "small maps" "medium sized maps" "big maps"
or "standard maps" "non standard maps" for random maps

You could make the My Random option randomly select a map at create time, rather than game start time. That way it is random for the game creator, but you eliminate the confusion for other people joining.

Alternatively, you could also make the My Random maps be a preference rather than a hard and fast rule. The random selection process would first compile a list of My Random maps that are common among all players, and if it doesn't find one, then it defaults back to the regular random map creation.
