Or is one player spawning in free-win mode fair? | ||

You have not answered my question,are these maps meant for competitive purposes? You don't seem to take criticism well judging from your other map's threads. | ||

You have not answered my question,are these maps meant for competitive purposes. sooory i should have answered, it's just i have such a sweet answer the maps i do are downloadable when tested vs cp or other they are accessible, that is my only goal as for competitive, let's have your 2 cent on what that encompasses for me i agree "there is no such thing as a perfect competitive map." and i thrive to please, please my player friends, the 3v3 neub, the scbw crowd ... anyone really and i'd rather start out with "feeling or flavor with no real technical objective in mind " maps to get to naturally refined ORIGINAL maps as i pile them up in short : they are downloadable, what people do with them is up to them (just remember to credit the creator of said map and don't leave your bag in the station cause we will not be liable if you got it snatched while you were reading this post) gogogo | ||

People here are not posting in your thread to say that your maps are "bad"(I don't think they are) just to discourage you.They are giving criticism because they want you to be a better mapper. if they didn't they wouldn't even post here. P.S Learn the Quote and Edit function on the forums. | ||
