That's a pity. Maybe it would be good to start with a smaller trollo version (less UI comfort, less trolls built in) but at least with a map which is done?
Bx actually has a private map in the spirit of Trollobattles that was made when we were impatient for TB's official release. If he ends up not producing Trollobattles or his similar Chaos FFA map, I may put do a little spit polishing and put it on the arcade. We're all TB fans, though, and it looks as though he hasn't given up hope yet.

If Totalbiscuit reveals info about the implementation problems, maybe I can help out.
I don't think I have the time to actually work on the whole thing, but I would like to give my input to help this map. Maybe I can help to solve the problems that were encountered.
I made a diablo map (Dia blo - Mortal Shroud) and am currently working with a team on a dota-like map based on a Broodwar map including custom UI (Temple Siege 2). So I've excellent trigger knowledge, pretty good data knowledge and good custom UI knowledge.
But I know that Eiviyn is a capable mapmaker. So, whatever problems he can't solve, they might be really hard to solve or impossible.
edit:
Both of these maps are playable on US and EU servers.

I loved Temple Siege back in BW! Hope it goes well :D

Would be terribly unfortunate for this to sink into nothingness =( Right now the map is not really great to play on (Of course because it's not finished. ^^) I really hope TB and a map maker that's not-so-busy can get this done o:

What's ever become of those Blizzard-made (?) Trial of the Xel'Naga maps? They were in the same spirit, were they not?

They gave a single spectator the unchecked ability to use about 10 special spells, each with the potential to make the game entirely pointless. I'd call it significantly different.

I think the concept is quite similar even though TB envisioned more subtle trolls.

Oh, that's... not good :/

ATM I haven't heard anything from Eivyn in a while so I'm assuming at this point the project is dead.

Are there no more capable map makers who want to help on this? As long as you have the original map files someone else can continue it. I really wish this was completed, the games I played on it were really fun

What about the intellectual property? I guess it would be faster if someone makes a new map instead of finishing the current map, but the current map could be useful for a mapmaker to see how certain things were done.
