If your map is finished, go test it, tweak it, and test it again. Also, having a new map pool every week would not allow players time to learn the maps (and would also drain my bank account quite rapidly!)
I'll add our scores once we all finish.

I'm fully behind this initiative. The thing that's always made blizzard multiplayer games so successful is the unbridled raw potential in the community. *Mapmaking chant* | ||

Also, here's an example of a judge's note to a runner-up: Steppes of War: the map promotes a lot of cheese thanks to it's 22sec ramp-to-ramp timing but if matches here extend to a more macro-oriented style the map is very interesting. Steppes of War would greatly benefit from being expanded to add another 5-8sec on the ramp to ramp time. Again, this is just an example of the process we'll go through for the real tourney The tournament will be officially announced January 1st. Mappers have obviously been given a head start | ||

I might even be tempted to try my hand at map making again one of these months On December 22 2010 04:42 iGrok wrote:
I like that list. I also like how Xel'Naga scored the highest, 'cause I feel that map is the most standard map for 1v1 | ||

That is correct. I didn't know this. Are there any other rule changes that I should be aware of? I just reread the topic twice, and it didn't say anything about publishing the map beforehand. Is that now allowed? | ||
