Also as a personal request. Does anyone know how I can contact other map makers who might be willing to make a free for all map? | ||

Just saying...^^ I might not be representative - but my 2 last maps easily took ~60 hours each. And looking at Super's work, it's very possible he might take more time. | ||

That's what I'm saying actually, there is no crysis of time for maps, so making one every 2 months shouldn't be a drag right ? Just work 1-2 hours a day on it if you really like it. | ||

Sad to see someone who influenced brood war and especially star 2 as much as you did go, I'll miss getting exited about you making a new map... I don't think wol will ever see a map that did as much for the game as cloud kingdom did, your use of chokes and high ground low ground really did revolutionize the way we all look at maps. | ||

Just saying...^^ I feel you, but once you reach a certain level mapmaking can easily consume your every waking hour, it does for me. It's not so much a matter of squeezing it in every now and then, it's more like if I don't make myself stop, it will consume time that I need for other things. Superouman's case may be different, since he's becoming a bit bored of SC2 now as well, but just to give you an idea. | ||

And after reading this, I can understand a little better why you were so intensely competitive in the TL contest, though I still think your attitude towards Ohana was a bit too disrespectful. Good luck with school. Hope you come back with HOTS and give us more great maps. | ||
