SRT n SSL need new maps badly. FS is more than ready to hit the graveyard if you ask me.

FS is a classic though. Doubt they'll get rid of that map.

Freaklings definitions:
alpha: work in progress. Not meant to be played, at least not seriously.
beta: map is in a playable state, but not yet finished
finished: finished map, but not guaranteed to be 100% positionally balanced and bug free
tournament ready: has undergone additional testing, to ensure positional balance and bug fixing

What it really means for people who dont know of his incredibly high standards:

Alpha: A quality map.
Beta: Far far better than most maps already.
Finished: Balanced beyond the patience of mere mortals.
Tournament Ready: Rose.of.Dream doesnt even know what he changed.
Star Tale Public Domain project. Maps: (2)Gates Of Memphis, (2)Marshmallow Toast, (4)Bubbles, (4)Clay Fields, (6)Numbskull Desert. Also the Vaylu Public Domain Tileset. Also Ramp Palettes, Brood War guides and some fun stuff. Links in my profile

The 3 player map Architexture's 9 o'clock natural is super unbuildable. Playing as P It's almost impossible to wall of in a proper way. This could be deliberate forcing players to not wall up and play differently but the fact that it's just the 9 o'clock and none of the other spawns naturals is surely extreme positional imbalance.

It might be an interesting and entirely separate debate whether it would be possible and balanced to have maps where you can’t wall off. I’m guessing Zerg would just run rampant and it would be completely unbalanced but hey that’s a different discussion.

I don't really want to comment this…

You are right, of course; that map needs some changes before it's actually balanced. I think I will have to shrink down all those ramps a bit, to make everything fit in properly.
I should probably a list of known issues to each map.

Yeah, some of these maps really deserve to be, at least, checked out in some tournament..

Maybe you guys should make a small tour, with like a 100$ or even 75$ prize, and it would be played on these maps ?

Because it would be shame if all that nice work was spoiled..

I feel like - Voidrim, Shadowplay, Quintessence, Oxide and In The Way of an Eddy are quite playable, right ?

We had a 2nd BWMN Open planned but then it stalled cuz summer, lack of manpower, and working on new maps/maps for star server...Maybe when we all get the motivation to work on it it'll take off...

I'll probably add them all over time
But the ones up now are the newest ones, and probably the most interesting/best ones to pick up and play (if they are finished).

It's a damn shame TSL was too scared to add in 1 Freakling map.

I tried hosting these maps on ICCup a while back, no1 seemed interested in playing them...
Could you please update OP with observer versions of your maps?
