I'm from Europe (ping to US servers usually 50-60 up to 75).
New York
I'd prefer to have all the maps available (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/List_of_maps), because I like variety in MP. There should be a map vote, but, it should have a map repetition limit. For example, map cannot be voted for until 7 others are played. (Balloon race v2 or v3 every now and then wouldn't hurt.)

24 players, Most of EU should have decent ping to east coast US if they have a decent internet and computer.
I myself average on 100-170 to eastcoast US.

24 players, I prefer stock maps, custom maps created by SG members would be a nice way to support and promote them though.
As for location, East coast if you wanna have only one. Even so most people will average in 100-200ping. If you're considering one in EU I suggest netherlands (has best connection/routing to pretty much all eu countries).

If we toss up a TF2 server, which location would you prefer? It'll be setup in the US due to the majority of the SG community being based there, but which city? Chicago? New York? Dallas? How are pings in Europe for US servers on the east coast?
As for player count, standard 24 players? Or 32 players with larger maps?
