have they kept any foreign (bwmn!) maps?
It's not like they were horribly imbalanced, at least from the statistics, and the sole reason why nobody tried them is that they basically never made it into a motw pack. Sure many people prefer mainstream maps, but since you basically lose the mow bonus points if you play on a foreigner map, people won't play them at all, even those who would not mind or even like to play those maps.
yea not sure. I would love to see some new submitions from bwmn mappers for iccup. It can happen again. YellowAnt always seems pretty pleased with our maps.
The last season had a bunch of our maps that got over a couple hundred games (I checked stats more often than not).
On that note, I just started making some prototypes over the weekend. NastyMarine IS BACK
You don't really submit. You negotiate. Nightmarjoo is on pretty good terms with one of the guys resposible for the ICC mappack, and sometimes he gets some maps in.
I wasn't on msn for a while, so yello-ant couldn't message me to make iccup versions of the new maps in exchange for adding bwm maps. Thus, all of their new obs maps crash sc ROFL.
