You know the state of map making is bad when they need a support group.

You know it's even worse when maps still aren't being taken in by a selection of tournaments over the world.


And oh yeah, isn't Phantasm going somewhere soon? Do tell, so everyone may know!


Some Korean pros are going to be playing it momentarily, I'm excited. Hopefully the games get casted. For me, though, its always about the journey, not the destination.

No one is even recognising me for my grandiose achievement of making Ragoo mad...


Ragoo doesn't get mad, he just gets ragoo.
It's funny; I dream a lot, but I'm not a very good sleeper.

I guess I'm proud of being 1 of probably like 10 people in the world who still makes BW maps.

Oooh, that's good, use that. A success story can focus on either the success or the story, use that too. MAKE SOMETHING EPIC.

I'm seeing something like a movie trailer :p

just lost my mind after reading that post about cloud kingdom, makes me appreciate the map on a whole new level.

My moment of pride is having a single bo5 live casted on one of my recent maps, Cardinal

1. Watching casted games featuring pro players on my maps (MotM)

2. Tastosis casting one game on one of my maps, although it was a cheesy 5 min PvP.

3. A famous map maker handed over an early version of a now very famous map, so that I could suggest some texture styles and doodad usage:

I guess my moment of success was when I woke up seeing I got an email from GOM regarding DF Atlas in GSL

I just watched the first winners game of group A, and DF Atlas has some very cool bouncing around the third in ways that wouldn't work on something like Daybreak or Akilon Wastes.

ty very much to all participants, mapmakers need more stream<3

ps:
quite possibly the best point made
