SC2Mapster

You're over-analyzing this. It's just some PR guy who just threw down some maps from a quick glance of the list and went home to dinner.

Xara SMASH. God, how fucking stupid can they really be? *sighs* About time we did something about this problem already with some cool maps.

Oh Mozared, you forgot VoidCraft and PortalCraft! :P

Then they need to fire their PR guy, because he's obviously not too good at his job.

Don't overprotect Blizzard. We never know. In my view, a post like this gets reviewed by many people, specially because it got translated into more than 4 different languages. Still, no one said "wait a minute! Nexus Wars?"

Btw, just for you guyz know, lilman boosted Nexus Wars, that's why the map got so popular. It would be on page 2994893 right now if it wasn't boosted.

Quote from Sephiex: Go

All of the maps that could've been amazing were started but never finished.

Obviously. Who wants to keep updating a map that NO ONE plays? I don't. Too much work for too little reward. And if this doesn't change, Nexus Wars will be on top until Starcraft 3 comes out.

I did. It's probably what got it onto page 2.

After carefully considering, I came to the following conclusion:

THIS. IS. WAR.

Time we got up off our asses and pulled out some of the big guns to show Blizz what the terms "technical, artistic, and creative skill" mean.

Rodrigo, you're in charge of confetti. Get to it! :P

That's why I joined to help Ryan with SCU. I don't feel like finishing off something myself and then dealing with 100's of emails on what to fix once it's popular... and then getting burned out (happened 3 times to me already lol).

Even if I know SCU (and FPS/3rd person in general) may have issues with the SC2 system (ie delay on key press event, scripting limits...), at least I can try and push for something big and maybe Blizz will feel the pressure to change certain things. And if the map is sustainably-popular regardless, I'll be happy to say I helped create something fun and of good quality.

I have a plan!! Yes, I have a plan.

Listen carefully:

Sixen contacts Blizzard (since he has the best contacts here) inviting them for a match of DEBATESSSSSSSSSSSS.

Then, since I have the highest score, I set the thought of the user to "There is hope for the custom map community"

Gorandor and Onetwo votes for the thought of the user! The thought of the user is selected!

Then,
Mozared debates it against Blizzard!

We vote for Mozared!

SC2Mapster 1 x 0 Blizzard.

\o/ We win the Debate. Blizzard loses 4 x 0. The game yells "humiliation!" They start crying and go running to fix the system! \o/

All SC2Mapster maps go instantly to page 1. \o/

Awesome plan. I know it will work. Right Scooby?

I think everyone needs to calm down, take a step back and ask the real question here...

Why is this map not on that list?

@Bounty_98: Go

No, the real question is why isn't my map I made in 3 hours some time after they made that statement isn't on the list.

-Edit: The map is also unpublished.

@zeldarules28: Go

We should open a thread about it.

You're right, go open 3 more threads about it Rodrigo. Brilliant plan

I wish I had thought of that. . .
