The title is completely unrelated to the actual map (named after some SNL parody music video I was watching at the moment of naming it).

I made this map because I grew bored of regular Melee Starcraft maps in which you often have to bear with all of your enemies at once even if you're FFA'ing. Basically there's four bases and they're grouped in pairs, and there's a lot of space in the middle so teh compooooters tend to attack their closest enemies first. It can also make a decent map for team Melee (2v2).



Alternate download for it here (lawl).

I love the design philosophy behind the map, but the map is filled with way too many thin twists and turns, pretty much forcing any player to tech straight to air. It also encourages this due to the annoying choke points at many different levels and the long travel path to the other base. Like I said before though I love how the map is thawed out for the most part on the top/bottom and frozen in the middle.

I like the snow to dry idea. just make it a 1v1 and a lot smaller. You really need to give the player a reason not to just tech to air.

=) as well as open it up, fix the gas issue, and symmetrize it.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
