Yeah, dumb move on my part. When I saw the request, it didn't occur to me to be a big deal, since we were at the beginning of a new campaign. Then, I kind of missed the chat traffic about stacking because I realized I ended up with a "hat" as infected ... and thought the complaint was that the teams were uneven in terms of talent, not that the concept of the switch *itself* was the problem.
So, yeah. Sorry, all. Won't happen again. That said, another disaster turned out to be Cold Stream.... even though it was chosen by over 50% of the votes, it ended up being a disaster and we switched to a new map after mass defections.
