np, I think it's odd that most server owners allow random players to use /time, but not /listlayouts or /listmaps.  If they are worried about ddos they shouldn't alow time either  ??? Perhaps they don't realize that /listlayouts and /listmaps are important to a random player?

I don't think they should be admin commands at all.
No point in not allowing them.

Is there a way on the officials to vote for a certain map with a certain layout as an option?
No
/callvote map mapname layout, if it hasn't changed
It never changed
Need help? Ask intelligently. Please share solutions you find.

Thats what we need, helpful players, not more powerful admins.

Because they are official servers testing Tremulous balance, not Conzul's Fun Layout #5?

I said "will they be (able to vote for layout) when testing is done", not, "when will testing be done?". Take a moment to actually read a post before replying.

I agree with the theory that if it doesn't allow instant death it's good enough for a starting base. Even using qvm's (like Lakuta7's) that allow layouts I would never dream of making the bases impenetrable. On GameArena (Australian server) I've thrown a few random layouts around to spice things up, I get told they are wrong but when I press them with "Do you get killed right away" they back down and tell me that they are OK, it's just that they didn't expect them.
