Before I thought that I was the most insane person but I gove proven wrong... Oh and yar pet krab appears on my screen even though I didnt go to the web site so geez thanks ...
Actually I think the hype was all about getting a new map, instead of just a preview. Anyway, new pic in first page

Maybe this is why Blizzard banned my account now? I can't update Smash anymore, thanks blizz & Sixen I guess.
Just posting this so everyone can form their own opinion. I logged on tonight to do some test patching and I get a message during upload that is accompanied with a "failed" message which says "This account has been banned".
I am banned "permanently" from the forums for trolling a green post by "Archer" by saying "Who the @#%^ are you?", obviously auto-bleeped by the forums. This doesn't seem like any valid reason to ban me from uploading maps.
I find it funny that I troll a green post and suddenly I can't even update my map anymore. To me, it feels like someone leaked the 2.0 sneak peek I showed off the other day, and seeing as Sixen is also a blizz-dick rider it only makes sense that he'd encourage someone on blizzard's end making it so that he'd have no competition for his shitty hyped up map.
He even names a hero the same thing I named mine, and also classifies him as a tank as well?
Some butt-hurt employees? Or is Sixen really behind this? I want some answers now because whoever did this is essentially throwing away months of work and polish that is unrivaled right now on the custom map list. I also suspect its a good reason the map has yet to be featured, because I honestly can't form any idea in my mind why it wouldn't be featured, especially with all the shit that's on the feature list now with some exceptions.
I am 100% sure that if you had behaved nicely on the blizz forums instead of insulting a Greenie you would happily upload your new Smashcraft version right now.
Sixen pulling CIA-Blizzard strings to get you banned so you won't threaten his map anymore?
Yea right.
Next the My Little Pony lovers will try to assassinate you because they feel threatened by your avatar.
Smashcraft is great I guess (never played it), but I think you're overestimating it's importance a little bit.
Do the rational thing:
Send them an EMail, ask for information on what's going on.
We're not all undercover Blizzard people so unfortunately we can't tell you what's up.
And Mafia boss Sixen is still partying because he managed to sabotage his greatest competitor.
@Mephs - Yeah try contacting them. Or upload it on a different account. Either way don't give up :)
@This Project - Any sneak peaks of the heroes themselves? I'd really like to give some feedback and suggestions for abilities. Perhaps you already have it all planned out thou anyways.
That sucks hard, Mephs. You can ask someone else from other region to update it there meanwhile, but you should contact Blizzard and ask about this to them. I'm sure banning from forum doesn't intend to get banned from uploading custom maps.
Also, may this "secret" project be related somehow with the Marketplace? I know Sixen has a good friendship with Blizzard now (for example: http://www.sonsofthestorm.com/ :P) and I wouldn't be surprised if he knows more than we think.
@Mephs : seriously, does anytime anything happends to you, you have to insult everyone to get some compassion ? I don't wanna be rude, but that's not the right way of getting it. If your account is banned, that's definitivly not because you made a good-looking map with average gameplay. The popularity system is frustrating, but you should realise you most definitivly did NOT make the best map ever.
Still, I hope your problem got solved and you can upload your map again.

Have you gotten previous warnings from the forums before?
I'm going to leave Meph's post here and all just because I can. To summarize, what happened is that Mephs apparently got his account banned from Blizzard's official forums. He's now claiming that aside from faking the moon landing, Sixen has been pulling strings inside Blizzard HQ to get this done so his Smashcraft won't compete with 'Sixens new TMA project'.
Note how Mephs isn't aware that TMA isn't a project that Sixen is involved in. Or that Sixen really isn't that 'deep' into Blizzard that he can lobby to get people banned. Also note how Mephs made a post full of flaming about this, that our mod Nevjmac removed because hey, it was full of flaming. After which Mephs threw Nevjmac a couple of PM's containing various swears (N-word among them) about how much of an asshole he was, even after Nevjmac had directly stated that he didn't have a clue about what was going on, respects Smashcraft and really is only a simple mod that's trying to keep the forums clean.
I don't know about you, but my opinion's pretty much settled by now. I suppose Sixen will come by and ban him at some point, after which he'll probably make a few proxy accounts to troll us because he's angry, after which those get banned and everybody will forget about the whole thing.
That said, can we get back to actually discussing TMA from this point? This thread has been way to off-topic for ages.
Why can't that crab be on every thread? And why isn't it annoying like the Blizzard one? D:

So what happened with this? Weird to cause all this hype then just go silent.
I know, it kind of upsets me to think we were all hyped up. Now I don't even care for the map as much as I did when we were getting hype every week.

well that sucks mephs try get a friend or other account remove smashcraft from your account and upload it with other i guess or try to get it solved
@Mephs: Go
Maybe it was Rodrigo? With you out of the picture, he is now the best mapper on battle.net!
But seriously, a ban on the forums means a ban on uploading maps? That's just plain stupid and unnecessary.

Shit, they got us! RUUUUUUN!!!
Ok, jokes aside...
So we got pictures of 6 more "heroes"... Uh huh... When are we going to get anything that tells us anything about the map?
Maybe I should make a few pictures of my heroes, make a fancy logo, write their names in fancy fonts and see if I can get it newsed...

You guys can start making bets on how long it'll take me to get a picture up ;)
Btw, Nev, while you're here, can you edit the news to say "Card Shuffle by Fulla", since Oxygen is only the US uploader?
