Less than 10 = Arena?

Would be a suggestion to make Server go for Arena Maps if less than 10 Players are around.
Because in regular playing times we go over 10 very very easy. And before would just nice to play a little something if you have time like in the middle of the day to connect in play some arena and leave again. Because I think less than 10 people in normal map cycle is baad.
Could be even less than 12=Arena.
What do you think?

was playing about with dynamic map rotation on the second server. Next map to be chosen is dependent on how many ppl are playing
It was only set so that bball2 is played if there are 6 or less, any more and it goes into a stock map rotation, but it's totally flexible.
Something with the update/arenamode/second config file caused more tocotissues, so I just disabled it for now till I am arsed to look into it...mightnt have been the cause of crashes at all, but I'll need guinea pigs to help me find out for sure
...but, it's something that we can apply to the main server when resolved. I have to look more into arena mode too, cos you cant change teams, there's always the speccing team etc, I think w/ tourney mode on, you can get around some of this...
...anyways, yes to your plan, we should be able to set it so that small maps are only played when there are few players, big maps only when there are lots.
Now, the big debate; what numbers of players trigger what maps

ctf_hallofdeath = 2 - 8 players
ctf_mach4 = 4 - 12 players
ctf_bball2 = 2 - 6 players
cp_well/cp_badlands/cp_(pro_)granary = 10 - --- players
cp_gravelpit = 6 - --- players
ctf_turbine = 6 - --- players
i'm high, forget a map?

I think there could be one Easy thing 10 or less always triggers arena
Than the rest can follow like 10-20 small maps and after that full map cycle (no arena) because of the high possibility that rtv helps or admin is there....
