Zerg Diamond 2000+ 10pm-2am EST, (thats when im almost always on.) If im online theres a good chance ill test the map. US Server Volta.809 (PTR) Comments: -Im fairly good with zerg, but i can play the other races. -Like i said before, if im online, ill play. + Show Spoiler + /// this is a good idea, i hope in the future whenever someone wants to have their map tested, they go online and have 5 or 6 people just ready to do so. | ||

Protoss Gold Various times. I don't really have much of a schedule. I usually have nothing better to do so if I'm online I'll most likely be willing North America Comments: Obviously I'd just be testing maps for fun. Don't expect any serious balance tests going on from me. | ||

Also is thre any additional information that testers would want to know about a map that is not always put in a map thread? Finally should map makers specify if the map that they want tested is intended to be a competition map or a fun map , or should the later never be posted in this thread in the first place? Basically what is the best format for this thread when advertising a map to be tested. Some testers might post with LOTS of info that isnt needed or nothing other than a top down view, there may be periods where lots of makers finish their projects or just a few finish lots of projects in close proximity and could flood the thread. The easier it is for testers too look through maps that interest them and glean info the better. any suggestions? | ||

Terran Platinum 800+ (I don't ladder 1v1 much, so this doesn't say anything) Evening - late night MT NA Server Happy to test any maps if I am not busy. I'm new to SC2 map-making, but I would like to give it a shot. I am sure I will need help on the way, so I would like to do this as a way to meet other map makers and learn the process of developing a good map. I don't have any maps to test at the moment, but I am happy to see what others are making and give what input I can. ^_^ | ||

Terran Diamond 1400+ Generally whenever NA Server I guess just email me a map and I'll have a go at it with a friend. I'm just interested into seeing what new maps the community can make, as I am really sick of the current ladder map pool. I'm more than confident the community can generate some incredible maps that will be used in future big tournaments (MLG, GSL, ESL, etc) and I want to be part of the process that gets them created! | ||

Protoss Diamond 1850 3pm-3am randomly PST available as long as nothing else is happening NA I have a folio of half finished maps that I'll foist on you, but I'm perfectly willing to play whatever maps people want to play on. The more I play 3rd party maps the better I can evaluate maps in general. Map makers should definitely talk to me if they want to test their map, especially for basic protoss stuff. Map testers should definitely talk to me if they want some competition on a map they're having fun with. We should have a list of participants in a single resource, like edited into the OP? It will obviously be way better when we can congregate in a channel. I for one will plan on camping there 24/7. But even so, compiling a list here will be useful. Miscellaneous remark: I often have one or two people on my friends list online and willing to play non-ladder maps in an play/obs game. But it's hard to find people of matching skill levels. This doesn't matter as much when you're play/obs'ing for fun, but it's not as useful when looking for balance / expansion pattern type issues. So gathering up people will be great! Even bronze matches can tell you a lot about a map! | ||

Zerg Platinum ~Rank 25 (haven't been on in months, rank means little) Random Times after 3:00 on Weekdays EST Random Times on Weekends EST I will test for fun and for whatever you really need to test. My best and favorite race is Zerg, but if you need me to, I can play Protoss a little and Terran really badly. *If you want to do testing with me, you will have a better chance getting a hold of me if you send me a pm.* | ||

I made a map called [M]Archi - Abandon, and if anyone is willing to try it out for fun, or to look at it with a much more critical eye that would be great. Details of the map are in the thread linked, along with what I was aiming for. It is only available on the EU server at the moment. Though if requested I should be able to upload it somewhere. If you guys are interested please try it out and say what you think of it. If you do have any replays that you want to send me that would be great, just PM me. If you feel it is not worth the time to test, thats ok but please say why so i know for next time. thanks guys. | ||

Don't know my points, but my rank is ~25 Platinum Zerg NA Server Anytime as long as you have an appointment  PM me here if you want to test anything (make an appointment), because otherwise I do not really play SCII that much, so I cannot give an actual time. I can give really good feedback (or so I think) about maps, and I know somewhat about aesthetics. Personally I'd love to test out anyone's map when I can! EDIT: I'm not actually very good at the game, mostly because I don't play it that much, but I consider myself to be at an ok level. | ||

I'm going to start camping in channel MotM. If anyone wants to test their own maps and others', please show up! I spend a lot of time dicking around in custom games anyway, I could be playing those games on maps for testing instead of void ray rushing on LT.  Ideally, mappers and people who like to test would start going to MotM by default so there'd be a core of people always around making it easy to find a game. | ||

Random Bottom Diamond (500 points) 19:30-22:30 (GMT +1) Possibility that I'm already doing something else, but willing to test new maps. EU server Cannot provide advanced feedback due to lack of game knowledge. Might be online for longer periods of time in holidays. (Is there any channel on the EU servers for these purposes?) | ||
