Haha, that was one of my favourite maps of mine. You should upload replays for it on bwm if you can, I'd love that :D
I'm gonna try and make another map for this competition, maybe a (3)map since there seem to be a lack of them, though I'm not good at making (3)maps.

I've been working on a pair of decimated earth-themed 4 player maps... I think I'll try and make a 3 player one based on the demand.
edit: here's one of them - that I deem ready for feedback...
Map: Cairo 2428 Players: 4 Creator: MrMoose Theme: Decimated Earth
+ Show Spoiler +

Features:
* Difficult to secure third bases encourage 2-base play * Neo Moon Glaive-esque lanes around the center allow oppurtunities for early agression and late-game harrass * Large, open center makes pushing cross-map difficult * Large amounts of terran wreckage contribute to the decimated earth theme
All constructive feedback welcome Especially if you can suggest a better name - I'm not too happy with the one I came up with.

Hello, i'm entering my map "Beaches of San Grias" into the competition. It's in beta stage and is definately unique, playable, and fun, but perhaps lacking in small details and perfected. This is not to say that aesthetically it hasn't been worked on, it has to a great deal, but not to my standards of perfection i suppose ^^
I enter it under the "Found Temples" category, though it was inspired and created before this contest.
+ Show Spoiler [Beaches of San Grias] +
The beaches of pristine San Grias lie untouched. These peaceful sands may hold the key to victory for your people, and many treasures to explore.
Features : - Two player map with spawns at 12 and 6 - The entirety of the main island (which both players spawn on) is on flat level ground, the only exception being the two main bases. This brings interesting strategy into account. - The ramp to each main base is very wide. - Natural expansion behind main base with a very small choke (3 square) - The combination of the wide front door of the main and the very small choke at the natural bring interesting strategic choices, where lacking adequate defense at your main in order to secure your easily protected natural could end in defeat. One base builds are very viable, additionally with 10 mineral patches in each main. - 6 bases on the main island, including both players main, in addition to the "Found Temples" two ruined temples each with 10 mineral patches and double gas. These island expos make the map even more interesting.
All in all, a really interesting map that is very different, both in terraining and map design. A map also with alot of strategic depth (imho ^^).
Thanks alot, i hope you guys check it out and have fun.

OK heres a little something I made today. The map title is a spoof of Tau Cross. It made me LOL when I was brainstorming, so I went with it. The jagged rockwall dividing the bases is just mere thread of floss to Yao Ming, so the name Yao Floss was born. TBH, I'm a noob, but husky's commentaries are definitely baller status, so I had to make a map. IDK if this follows a theme for 1,2, or 3. Also, this was my first time using a map editor, and there are some things I still want to adjust or add to this map such as a UMS obs version(no idea how to do that).
The 2 spawn points( 3 and 9) on Yao Floss are closer than the average map I would say. This map features a stack of 20 temples inbetween a relatively short route from both bases. There are another 2 temples at the upper entrance of both mains. All mineral patches are set to 1500 and 5000 for gas.

edit- one thing I cant believe I forgot to mention. It took me like an hour to figure out how to make those ramps work LOL so I better win this!

Those are old games of mine, and they're on another computer at my home. However, I am going home this weekend, so I will see what I can find. If I find any, I'll bring them back and upload them.
Note though, they are not high quality. I might have averaged 80 apm when I was playing, and my opponents were no better.....
I liked the map due to it's BB style micromanagement, yet it had expansion opportunities. It was very unique, and worked out well.

tv-dooke, I thought your post was funny and wanted to say that I appreciate your entry for whatever that's worth.. I feel like you and I are coming from the same place and hey we're both relative noobs on TL. I downloaded your map and well it's probably not very balanced but it's a great effort! The main2nat distances are imba and theres a funny useless ramp above the 5:30 base. Also you say the bases are 3 and 9, I would say they are 5:30 and 8 and they are very close. Also, the main2main distances are incredibly incredibly long since the temples will take time to clear. Also what's up with that geyser in P1's main that's off to the side? Cheers mate.

Up date!
Finished most of the deco (Still not done tho but I wanted to give you guys an idea) I placed a few doodads but I'm still far from done. Changed the neutral buildings at the 3rd gas: 1 Toss temple and 2 stacked power generators. I also added an inverted temple ramp leading to the expo at 11 o'clock, and that ramp Is blocked by a Xel naga. This way will encourage the usage of the top left part of the map. People had complained that there was no 4th gas reachable by land, now there is. I also re arranged yellows main mineral formation, for LastCurse's petition.
Finally check this part of the map, int it sexy?
Ok and here Is where you can download the map: http://www.panschk.de/mappage/comments.php?mapid=3997

wow some of these maps look really great, too bad i don't have much time to try playing on them now
|
dryen - you did a fantastic job with the 3 player Colosseum-style map. I know it may look like there is wasted space due to the tar, however, I can see why this is unavoidable, without doing something outsider-ish, or medusa-ish.
|
True, and if you look at Medusa it has a ton of dead space as well! I was actually surprised. Mine is very similar to Medusa in expo layout and overall used space vs. unused space. Thanks for the compliment!

hey styles, i like the vegetation between the stairs xD
very arty
now say something nice about my entry

ugh, I had to update mine for a natural that had 1 too few Mineral patches.
Once I noticed it, I just couldnt leave it like that. Links and Picture in original post will also be updated. Thank you.
