If you guise want to use a MoFo map, please do.
Any map (not server plugin) that has ever appeared at Planet MoFo is LGPL, except the name "Planet MoFo"
I usually say that to use our stuff you have to remove the Planet MoFo name where it appears, but I will forego that requirement for your temporary usage.
Take a look at my Defender game mode concept.

Thinking is not an automatic process. A man can choose to think or to let his mind stagnate, or he can choose actively to turn against his intelligence, to evade his knowledge, to subvert his reason. If he refuses to think, he courts disaster: he cannot with impunity reject his means of perceiving reality.

I love the map of the month, it's such a great way to revisit maps that haven't been hosted in a while or maybe just didn't get as much visibility before. It's great to be able to show appreciation toward so many great mapmakers. Thanks for doing that!
