Recently a few people flamed me saying no map series should ever have huts or events. Here's a poll to see what people think. Please only vote if there's a moderate chance you'd actually play the NC series, but feel free to comment regardless.
Bear in mind that "huts on" also means no-huts saves would be available somehow -- either with instructions for how to delete them, or with some nice person like Capellan posting them. The last two poll options are there only for completeness; I haven't heard anyone ask for them yet.
Paraphrases of arguments heard on both sides:

Paraphrases of arguments heard on both sides:
- Events and huts make games non-comparable, so should never be turned on in a map series.
- NC games aren't comparable anyway just because people can select different difficulty levels.
- Some people like huts and events, and the series isn't a competition, so it should be OK for people to play that way.
- You can easily turn off events in Custom Scenario, so it's OK to have them on by default.
- Events should be off by default; the people who should have to go to extra effort are the ones who want events.
- If anybody wants to play with huts, they have to be in the WB save, since you can't turn them back on like you can with events. There are instructions for deleting huts by editing the save file (and lately, Capellan has been providing no-hut saves).
