OK, time to post MOTM-2. The final vote tally was:
Double Edge-26
Faoi-25
Scratch-16
I voted for Double Edge and I like it better than Faoi but I have to admit that Nightmarjoo worked like hell on Faoi. Not only did he do many edits but Faoi has 25 replays of which Nightmarjoo played 14! Double Edge does not have a single replay. This and the fact that the vote difference among them is just one point leads me to make this suggestion to may fellow admins.
Let's post Faoi MOTM-2, Double Edge second and maybe Scratch third.
I know Tesbug will probably agree (LOL!) but what say the rest?
Nightmarjoo, if you feel "weird" about making the post where your own map wins I can make it and I could include any specific stuff you want me to mention.
to flothefreal:right,so long others than yourself playin your maps and point out the good things on your map.but so long just you see how good your map is,i dont think so.
not that i care to much which one of these to map win,but:
-faoi is imba,you can read my comment in the proper map thread.
-and double edge is unfinished,decoration at least.but the map itself looks more interesting with the expos over the bridge and more original than faoi.and also not imba.
and for sake,lancet sayin' that nightmarjoo worked like hell on faoi sounds like lost tampon did not the same thing on his map.and even if,maybe his less talented.we should always judge the result and not the amount of work that someone put in a map.don't you think? modified by Grief_Stricken
If you guys want to post faoi first, then I won't post at all, nor will I stop you.
Personally, I'd rather there be more comments in this thread before deciding, but up to you since I'm not posting it.
Grief, several things. The competition and voting are over, we are already on month 3. By his own admission Lost Tampom (who I respect and like as a mapper) claimed in the map thread that Double Edge was unfinished. He was going to work on it (maybe) but as of today (3-5-8) no updates have appeared and there are no replays (it's untested). Nightmarjoo's map with all its imperfections is pretty much final, has lots of replays and is representing us at the ICCUP. Plus the difference between both maps is just one point.
You all know that I value voting a lot but in this case I think an exception is warranted. We have not granted first place to maps that were ahead by even greater margins before for various other reasons.
But everyone has an opinion, right? So far what is the tally?
Correct me if my interpretation is wrong please but so far me, starparty and flo are for it, Inept doesn't care, Grief is against and presumably Nightmarjoo and Testbug are for it but with the caveat that they are the authors. Any other admins weighing in?
No need to remove it, even if it is second place as long as you perform some edits you can enter it for another competition. Nightmarjoo, I can do the newspost let me think about it (I also have the ash map newspost to do).
