You know, Filefront is a good way to post your maps here without shamelessly advertising WB. I mean I appreciate that you might be attracting members to us, but it probably isnt the most respectful way to celebrate SEN's return.

I don't mind and I don't think Moose or IP would. We love warboards.

*shrug* Too much effort. v.v

As soon as uploads work, I'll do it that way. It's not any different from other guys linking to BWMN or SC.org. And I doubt SEN is gonna have a member shortage because I posted a link.

Cool Idea. I'm just old school and dislike so much extended/inverted ramps.

extended ramps make maps so much more balanced, tho.

Unless you do them wrong... I hate seeing people make one side have buildable ramps while the other side has normal ramps...

Looks pretty balanced, I just think top right is a bit empty.Then again, I dont think that area would be seen unless somebody makes an air unit to go there.good map ^^

Thats why you mix the inverted ramps terrain with normal ramp, temple terrain, and dirt and go in exchange will make a perfect invert ramp.
Most melee map makers don't make that kind of mistake anymore.

I do my ramps correctly. So buildability isn't an issue.

I playtested this map TvT and it was a lot of fun to play.

only if youre overly anal. I highly doubt the positioning of a ramp placed by a good map maker will make any reasonable imbalance.

Hard to say that since all good map makers use widened ramps anyways.

overly anal =/= wanting more potential for terrain. It isnt all ramps are wide vs all ramps are narrow. You can do both, but leaving yourself the possibility for wide ramps is what gives use non-dinosaurs the edge.

Seen it, I'm a member there and that map was originally created by Crackling (a stupid asshole noob who can't map worth shit but acts like he's gosu while kissing the good mappers' asses) and was pimped by Testbug. The pimped version was far more popular, due the the fact that it no longer looked like shit. Then flothefreak pimped TESTBUG'S pimped version and named it Silver Flush, which is the best version to date.

Then Crackling took Iron Flush's Testbug-pimped version and took out some of the better features and made it imba again...and called it "Mana". So yeah, I think I've known of that map. :D

Myrmidon shares little in common with Silver Flush aside from the foundation of the middle area is similar. Mymidon's mains do not have a backdoor natural, there are no neutral buildings and the expos are fewer in number with higher resource values. Myrmidon is overall far less cramped and easier to navigate as compared to Flush. Silver Flush's detail in terrain was exceptional, but at the cost of making the map very confusing to traverse.

No, they're still pretty much worthless. I never get anything from them I can't get from Warboards.
