I don't think we'll be able to do this. Signs have a limit of 16 characters per line, and most map names are longer than 16 characters (some would take 2-3 or even more lines!).
Hello there, well you could put a shortcut name of the map in the sign, then if they want to know what it means, they can type /listallmaps [/lam] for example, eventually most people will know what the shortcut means :)

The Signs will be right there as you spawn, obviously :) They wouldn't make it so you have to run to it :p

Sounded like a good idea at first, but now it just sounds like it would be annoying and pointless. Sorry, but this seems really unnecessary and I don't see how it would reduce spam levels.

If the typing voting system was stopped, you would not have to double send by getting your message shoved above the voting system.

[EXAMPLE]
[Me] Hey Guys
Map voting system
map 1
map 2
map 3
map 4
map 5
[Me Again] Hey Guys

See what i mean now? the first message disappears and gets pushed to the top, making people double-send what they said the first time, people want to be heard, and like to get their say out there. (Mostly Attention Seekers)

I think you should be able to do both the command and click on the sign. It's a lot easier to do it in the chat sometimes, and I don't want to keep having to run to spawn just to check the votes. How about instead of the like 10 messages that come up when the votes are told, it just says the votes on each map and how many skips there are?
