I agree...people have to deal with a random map start.
But I also agree with Revolution that there is no reason to have to have such a bad start as to make that person long to be put out of the game.
I think Revolutions idea is a good one...(I am no modder so I have no idea if this can be done), Have some areas where there just is NO WAY you can get a start if you are placed there marked as no start.
Other than that or sitting on someones lap at the start..lets roll!!!
