I'm happy to announce that the Map of the Month chat channel is now up! Join "MotM", and we'll set up games on the new maps!

I'll be running KotH's constantly on a combination of MotM and iCCup maps in the channel "obs" as well

If I publish on a map on B.net during January, can I have it compete it February's MotM if it is not competing in Janurary's MotM?

I had finished another map, but I wanted to wait before I published it to make sure I wouldn't harm its ability to compete in future MotMs.

I know that this was covered on whether or not you are allowed to post maps, I was just curious if this was the same for publishing them?

Please feel free to publish your map. In fact we encourage you to do so. We want you to go through the process of publishing your map because when we get them we want them ready to be published!

beautiful, balanced, and epic are 3 words in which I'd like to describe the maps. Decline is my personal fav since it's a nice big 4p map perfect for macro, or the nice 2 base play. MORE MAPS!!! xD

just gotta get line drops here and there for encouraging (day9/wheat/totalbiscuit/SotG....everyone + Show Spoiler +
everyone classy what what


people who can.. please call/chat them about MotMT or do the line dropping yourself everywhere:

something like: "MotMT 1 is on! Zelniq is gonna make a killin'"

1 per each "media outlet" would set it way up there!

(eu listeners can't really be expected to do it, since it's always 3/4 in the morning for us, and we all know what we are like in these conditions, it'd probably be awful)

Hey guys, if you want to read a pro-gamer's opinions on these maps and mapping in general, check this interview with mouz.MorroW. :D Just something to think about when you're playing these maps and creating your own in the future

Very good read, I think this will help me a lot and made me realize some newer issues to map making and balancing.

As MorroW said, I think there's a need for more interaction between pro-gamers and mappers. Be it through tournaments such as MotM or by testing beta editions of certain maps.

he has a valid point in saying that Decline is different in close positions han in mid or far...
unsure about about making close position a blocked-spawn (shakuras). already that about it when making the map.
what do you other guys think?

I would push the golds further to the blue expansions at the edge and widen the cliff between the close spawns.
Then check the rushdistance and if its significantly under 125 game units, widen it more.

And personally, if it still doesnt work, stare at the map for like 3 hours (seriously) and then redo everything exect main and natural

cheers,
madsquare
I do not obey any norms. I redefine standard with every thought I make.

if I understand your suggestion correctly than this would only help to add one to three to rush distance, because there is no change in the direction.(/edit)

actually i redid the part between he naturals several times.
the point is that the shared third triple-vespene needs a certain openness (entrances) that take away some space. if you look at the cliff area there (behind the altar-thing) you recognize the process of cutting it deeper into this area and therefore push the third back to make the close-spawn rush distance just a few seconds longer.

one thing I tried was a DR at the end of this cut just before the potential tird base that made the rush time ab bit longer, but that it was not elegant enough...

I have a personal request to all mappers.
When you're playing StarCraft, join the channel "MotM". Even if you just have the game open and aren't playing, just idle in the chat room. I can't be in there all the time

When players join the channel and see a bunch of other people in there, that will make them want to play MotM maps even more.

Even if your map wasn't selected for the final 5 this month, you could be there next month, and the more people involved in playing custom maps, the better!

"There will be a vote after the tournament. We want people to be able to watch games played on the maps before deciding the best. We will be sure to make a note of the vote in this thread. Stay tuned."

+1

however the earlier the voting parameters are "set in MoMT thread(s)" the better

impatient to get to see the final (probably on vod?)
