Had a pretty fun time in this map last night.

The highlight was a player called Prodigy ragequitting, calling me a "fucking n1gger" and immediately putting me on 'ignore' after I stomped him.

Maybe I'll see some of you guys in there today. ^^

I really wish people wouldn't have this attitude. It's a custom game, bronze players are perfectly entitled to play just as much as masters are.

If you want to see high level play, go to the "tlkoth" channel, there's usually a KOTH going on, so you can obs higher level games there.

It's just really annoying when two low level players are having fun and you've got some douchebag bitching about how terrible they are and that everyone should vote to end the game. Then when the game's over, said douchebag makes fun of the players.

Luckily, they're the minority, most players seem pretty mannered from my limited experience.

Cool map, but I think the player limit is too high, not enough playage per player.

Have to realize the majority of the population of Starcraft is below diamond
80% consist of plat and lower, and the level of play is barely noticeable until you hit diamond, where actual build orders start.

Some of the most fun I've had in this custom is with a a nearly full or full group that is all participating, makes it more fun imo.
Our group though had a lot that enjoyed watching AND playing, and didn't all just want to play.

In regards to lower players, it's awesome for them. They can get an idea of some higher level games, with the camera in their control.

This map is made retarded by all of the critters. They actually DO affect the game. If you want to build something where there is a critter, you have to wait until the critter moves out of the way. This can take up to a whole 5 seconds, screwing you the hell over if you're trying to wall-in fast against a 6 pool.

Observers can also ruin cheeses by leading players to proxy buildings with their critters.

Is this out on EU? If not, how can I upload it?

Nah, as soon as you place a building on a critter if it doesn't move out of the way in time it is killed. Same as if a critter steals Xel Naga watch tower vision from a probe or something it will be killed

Critters aside, this map is awesome. Great way to find some practice. Also, if you don't want low leaguers in your game go to the chat channel and make your own.

I would like some side activity available for observers. Maybe an unscrambler or trivia in observer chat.

Betting just doesn't cut it and it gets tiring watching bronze-level play four games in a row.

Great map, its pretty awesome and fun only problem is, alot of people complain that the ingame timer doesnt reset which makes it hard for alot of people that go exclusively by the game clock.

My entire computer froze/crashed the last two times I played this map. I was able to play it successfully a time or two, but since then it crashes the first time it's my turn to play instead of observe. I'm able to observe just fine, for many games, but as soon as I start my turn my computer freezes (sound stops, screen freezes, can't ctrl+alt+del). It's very frustrating when you wait 45 minutes to play and then your comp crashes. Anyone else having this problem?

If the map creator checks this thread, please fix this soon!

Agreed. That trivia sounds like the best option!
