What about an option in the map selection screen that allows for choosing a map at random from the ones available to play on?

Perhaps just a button of a dice (the same that you get when creating a team) that changes the selected map randomly (it could include the autogenerator as option to change to).

This is useful when you have a lot of maps and can't decide on one. Or you just played every one and can't think of a favorite for the moment. Or sometimes your friends just want the computer to randomly pick one, instead of you who might be biased.

I have had this dilemma many a time. Sad Smiley

just close your eyes and select the map with clicks or up and down arrow keys Big Grin
j/k this might be a feature for next release, shouldn't even be that hard to do
