Thank you for what is probably the best SC2 map to grace any and all of the map pools in the entirety of the game. Sorry you feel that way about the game but in all honesty, I can't blame you at this point.

SC2, while playable, has a lot of issues and if Blizzard doesn't take a time like this to address many of their underlying issues, I feel they will be missing their greatest opportunity to do so and lose a large chunk of the SC2 player base.

I hope Blizzard comes to their senses and hope you find time in the future to continue mapping. Thanks for your contributions!

Wow, you story was so interesting to read. I am a relatively new fan of Starcraft and stories like yours make me appreciate it even more. Good luck in the future and I hope this ain't a permanent farewell.

It's great to look back and see how much you've improved since your first maps, and how much you've accomplished! I can't say I'm too happy to hear about you retiring, with any luck you can return, because you're awesome Superouman!

Besides, we're going to need skilled mapmakers to handle some of the player's balance concerns just like we did in BW via the maps themselves. And we also need somebody to make sick 3 player maps as well (I haven't seen Testbug himself here, so it falls to you).

Good luck in all your future endeavors, and thanks for all you have done!

I've always liked how Cloud Kingdom looks like the Superman symbol tilted to the side. Very fitting for a guy named Superouman.

Wow, I got mentioned.

Haven't paid attention to BWMN for quite some time, so I didn't know Cloud Kingdom was done by one of the members. Seems like you got something much better than Map of the week on BWMN, hehe.
(Also sucks that SC2 is a bore fest, killing your motivation.)

Wish you the best in the future.
