Just here for the activity... well not really

Now that the game loads from multiple places (see https://www.reddit.com/r/broodwar/comments/gk3vt1/so_where_is_all_the_maps_folders_located_for/)

What folder do you use for manually downloading maps to?

The user folder or the program files folder?

Also, is there no way to add polls in v5?

I run the game on Linux, so, the it is installer on my home directory and run via Wine/Lutris, so, '~/Documents/Starcraft/Maps' is a symlink to '~/Lutris/blizzard/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/StarCraft/Maps'

So, technically, I store everything in the Program Files folder.

We do a little trolling

I just use the same old maps folder I always used. I think new maps are downloading to the documents folder automatically. I guess SC merges the results from both folders.

There is.. but I remember it being terribly counter intuitive to make work.
