No, not true, as has been discussed many times previously. Unlike in BW, you can add triggers and it doesn't take away melee functionality. You can also screw around with anything you want in the data editor and it retains melee, which is why you can play sc2bw as melee.

I like how first everyone is WTF-ing at the floating trees, then its explained and its the best idea in the MotM this month tbh :D

I think most of the maps have some weirdness in them if you put a magnifying glass on em. Thats life

@EatThePath sure there is a limit to what you can change? I wish we could use campaign dependencies without problem.

And yeah those shadows are awesome. It's the kind of thing you wished you'd come up with yourself

Lower settings with high effects make (made?) it easier to spot cloaked units. Pro's don't like to be distracted by anything graphical anyways, even in FPS games you see many pro-players turn everything to low. Who needs dustclouds in the streets covering your opponent?

The reason for that decision was that we call ourself 'Map of the Month' and not 'Map of the Year' and this particular map has already been published in november 2010. If we allowed old maps we'd also have to allow people like iCCup mapmakers to submit some of their old successful maps, as example prodiGs 'Neo Enigma' which wouldn't really be fun, since we encourage mappers to work on new things, not grab something old from their folder.

However if we see that the map clearly has been overworked since the old release, we will still allow it in the competition. In other words: we don't support lazyness

I'd like to apologize at this point since it is for a big part our fault for not displaying explicid rules for the submissions in the OP.We will definitly be doing that from next month on to clear any misunderstandings that might occur otherwise.

Apologies again to the aggrieved parties and thank you for your understanding.
