That is ridiculous.
This map might as well be the Hive, because games will go on forever on it.

Warning: Maps designated as "Beta" might have unbalanced gameplay and undergo changes mid-game. Play at your own risk!

The last part being the relevant one. I would think it to be common sense that anyone who wants to play beta maps should keep an eye on the development threads for possible changes.
Now this would be a good incentive for people to come in the foundry. Perhaps once they're here, they'll leave some feedback, perhaps they'll check some other map threads as well...
Perhaps if the start a game page would also tell players to follow the map threads on beta maps so they wouldn't get surprised with changes, this all would happen...

In all fairness, a huge game change such as this one, all ongoings should have received notification or just been deleted.
TheMissionary is in an 8 man dubs and he had over 50 sitting in AA when this change was made.
Well guess what.

Its an 8 player game where one player started with 2 parachute positions and another player with zero. While this will be interesting from a diplomatic view I believe it is an unfair advantage and should probably be coded so that they distribute evenly.

was it intentionally made random? it was originally even, which was what so awesome about the map... now luck can give all parachutes, or all one bonus...i really hope this was just a mistake...

the previous pages outline why the changes were made.
i agree the starting positions still need to be adjusted, but if someone could offer me a decent solution for the xml code, i'd be happy to implement. I'm afraid i don't have the time to go searching through xml stuff right now, as i have moved onto other non-CC projects.
