====== PoolRotator v6.7.10 — More maps in sparse Standard pools ======

Standard Ranked rooms can draw on lower-pass maps when fewer than 50 eligible choices remain, helping sparse ranges without admitting maps outside the requested difficulty or duration limits.

===== Player changes =====
  * With the usual baseline, the pass minimum relaxes progressively: **10,000 → 5,000 → 2,500 → 1,250 → 1,000**.
  * Stops at the first tier supplying at least 50 choices, subject to the configured pool limit. If the floor still supplies fewer, it uses the smaller pool.
  * Fresh maps satisfying stronger pass tiers remain preferred; lower-pass maps provide fallbacks.
  * Stars, hard maximum length, Ranked age and the chosen Farm, Stream or Jump source remain intact. This rule does not activate the older age/length expansion.
  * [[commands:pool|.pool]] shows the effective and preferred original pass requirements.

Applies across Standard difficulty ranges, not only high stars. Already queued maps remain unchanged. Mania and Loved selection are unchanged. See [[wiki:map_selection|map selection]].
