How to get maps played?

My map is at 0% popularity, when I host a game with my map nobody joins, ever, and I don't expect they ever will.
Is there no way to get new custom maps played other than to advertise the games to friends/internet?

I want to test the map a bit before I post it up on forums and map making communities. I only have 3 friends on bnet, what do I do.



None.

You have this all wrong.
Map-Making Communities are there to help you test and produce the maps. Share the map into the SC2 Map Production forum, call a Test Night (date + hour please), and people will show up. From there, your games/hour increases just as your map's quality increases as well.

Oh_Man -- yea APM vs eAPM
[08:48 am]
NimoStar -- plus most of the human APM is just spam clicking APM inflation

NimoStar -- the thing with the "*12" thing is completely misleading. The AI isn't using two control groups, it can use each of those actions to command a single unit individually and issue different commands to each single unit.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.

Vrael -- perhaps there is a small professional player trapped in a box in the server rack where pluto is running? hmm?

Vrael -- 240*12*2 is 5760, where is the other 240 APM?
[2026-9-21. : 3:44 pm]
Oh_Man -- 1 action is selecting the unit and another action is moving it

Vrael -- 240*12 is 2880, where is the other 3000 APM?
