Because I felt it was a useless weapon and usually involves some asshole not helping his team at all and sitting in the water like a girl.

I totally agree with WDF. Snipers in large quantities only add a disability to the team and promotes self play. The allies are better just going out with the garand which is deadly enough from long range. My advice as I have played Omah for countless hours is for the allies to just get up the beach! The more players you have moving forward the more targets the axis have and bigger chance you have of overloading them. If you have half your team camping in the boats the ones that actually rush forward which is the purpose of the map  will be easily picked off. And camping in the boats allows the axis to gather on the beach causing even more problems. I had requested that the allies snipers be reduced to zero just to promote teamwork. For this to happen tho the map needs to be critiqued. Since the map is a basically an offense/defense map there should be no flags but rather targets for the allies, such as on Strand_b4. And a timer should be instituted to further motivate allies. I know alot of you guys are mappers why not create our own version of the map and fix its flaws. Another flaw is that lets say most of the allies do push forward. And captuer the flag on beach (flag 1) and the flag at the far western side (flag 2 and even get the middle flag (flag 3). They then have to work their way through the axis spawn to finish the map! I mean this is no easy task. First of all yuor team is crippled since they had to move up the beach and capture flag 3 which is right by the spawn so reinforcements from axis is fast. But you gotta work ur way through magically appearing axis players? Comeon. The axis spawn should be maybe limmited to the pill boxes, or set back behind flag 3 not in those bunkers. That would greatly even the map out! I mean i love the map on both sides and my KDR doesnt drop too much when I am on allies but thats because genenralyl i never attempt to move for flag 4 since there is usually no one else with me when i get a chance :(  If you want and someone knows how to map...I dont know how to I could give u some plans I have in my mind and help u out. i think itd be alot of fun

Why not have one of the clans mappers to convert Omaha map to v3.1, turning flags to bomb spots? As for the snipers I actully try to cap some flags when I have the sniper spot, but hey thats just me =P. Isnt there a way to force a time limit in flag maps? Who ever caps the most flags within a round time limit that team wins?

Strand is a whole differant map. As well its too bad that its somewhat tough to get that voted in with so many people randomly just pushing vote buttons ( me =(  ). Seeing a converted Omaha map is quite an interesting idea though.
