We have many Maps and Mods on the lists now (and some not on the lists). We have servers. And now the enablemod fix makes it much easier for servers to use mods (and of course they have always been able to use any map). If you created a map or mod that you feel has fallen out of attention (or you are just a big fan of one) then why not start up a game based on it? It gives you a chance to pitch it (write a long description of why it would be fun to use). Thats not like its obnoxious spam or anything. You are just creating a game and seeing if you can get anyone interested in playing it. People require the use of their own maps and mods in games they start here all the time.

Here are some notes on how to become your own server if you want to try that also (linux only but much of the information overlaps to Win and Mac)
