Map version is encoded into map folder name. They all end in .v00x, IF they have been uploaded since tht feature was implemented and IF the uploader cared about this. If he didn't... well, his fault.

Hey Downlord love your work, is it possible for you to fix ladder in your client or is that a server side thing? Matchmaking is so important it really needs some love.

Ladder isn't broken, if you have any errors to report make sure you do so in our tech support forum.
