Map Of The Week (MOTW) requests

William Wallace · Post by **William Wallace** » Fri Jul 03, 2009 2:31 pm

I think the 13th century FULL european map made by lupus/me which isn't out yet, (but will be in few weeks) should be MOTW in like a month!

It'll be best map ever when it's all finished!

Keep in mind, you can also oppose maps in that thread. If someone requests a map and you disagree, voice that disagreement. Otherwise we'll think that everyone approves. That map was requested and no one rose any objections.

Maybe we should make this thread a sticky in the Lux Talk instead.
MOTW is more part of Lux talk than it is of MapLab.
Only thing in common is the fact they had to start from here during their creation.
After they are released they are officially part of Lux.
It would also get more attention in there and people would start being more aware and more willing to express their opinions.

Just a thought

I agree with Enokrad. The discussion on the Manatus map just moved from the lux talk forum to the Map lab forum. I think it will receive much less attention there. The Map Lab forum is only visited by boring, dusty, grey,introvert and feeble map makers, which aren't communicative at all.

I can imagine that someone wants all map discussions in the map lab forum, but why not keep a copy in the lux talk forum?

Well Mark,

As it is clear that you like experimenting with MOTWs, I propose Simple&Balanced.... I know, it's my own map... Again... Next time I'll propose a map by someone else. Maybe you should, however, have a few more conventional maps first....

That's a good idea. Mods and/or Dustin can we get a sticky mirror (no not the one form jwd's bathroom) of this thread in the Lux Talk forum?

a sticky mirror of this thread isn't really possible, without taking it away from here. I've been meaning to sticky a list of important topics in lux talk, and a link to this should go in there.

I propose "the battle of" by mnem as MOTW. Fun to play, and difficult to win in a offline bot game...

I support this. It plays nicely.

i agree to the above statements.

This is the map you are requesting?

If so, it will be MOTW on Aug 03.

Lupus ferox · Post by **Lupus ferox** » Mon Jul 13, 2009 10:18 am

Yep,
can't remember that T... word....

you guys are sleeping.....
Still the israel map as MOTW.....

WAKE UP!!!

Post by **dustin** » Tue Jul 21, 2009 3:53 pm

Thanks for the reminder.

Lupus ferox · Post by **Lupus ferox** » Tue Jul 21, 2009 5:01 pm

TY,
you can return to sleep now....
I consider the % of gameplay for a MOTW also a sort of contest. It's only fair to have a whole week available....

Sure no problem. It will now be MOTW on Aug 31.

And there are better things to think about when in Tuscany!

Have fun and we expect pictures to Luxshoppe with!

TY. Looking forward to your remarks about the New Netherlands map....

drSnuggles · Post by **drSnuggles** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 5:13 am

How about Enokrad's Antarctica?
The map is easy to understand and plays fluently. Nice one.

Behemoth · Post by **Behemoth** » Sun Jul 26, 2009 6:08 am

Hello all,

Re the MOTW - A few of you have already had a look at my first map 'THE HOT GATES' which Enok helped me finish via the lab.

As it's my first I'm sure there's room for improvement. I have a background in animation and illustration which I hope shows in the look of the map. Window dressing aside - does it play well!? Of course I'd love to have it available as a MOTW and put to the test so I can best judge that.

Is there a formal way to submit my map for consideration as MOTW?

If not please consider this as my informal application

Below is a snapshot of it (It's not avail as a plug-in now but I believe will be very soon)

I don't know if there's a formal way to propose. If there's one, someone could post please.

drSnuggles agrees to Behemoth's proposal coz he has made a great map.

Lupus ferox · Post by **Lupus ferox** » Sun Jul 26, 2009 8:31 am

Hi Behemoth

It looks great, as i've said before, with a typical Enok sauce this time...
I second the motion to have this as MOTW, just on basis of the theme only....

Lupus ferox · Post by **Lupus ferox** » Sun Jul 26, 2009 8:33 am

I like the new avatar btw, looks more like a Behemoth this time i think... (how does a Behemoth look like btw?, i've never seen one)

Yes, you post your submission or request in the thread "Map of the Week Requests" in the MapLAB....

Oh.... Um.....

You're set

Enokrad · Post by **Enokrad** » Sun Jul 26, 2009 3:25 pm

Yeah, i second/third whatever the motion for The Hot Gates to become MOTW.
The final version has a really nice flow and theme to it.
This could possibly become as popular as Rome II

Congrats to Behe for such a great map

That's a lot to live up to - gulp! Thank you for the kind words and support. At the very least I'd be happy with a fh for a game or two

In order to formally request a map, you have to wear a top hat when asking.

Antarctica will be MOTW on Aug 10

Hot Gates will be MOTW on Aug 17

Hot Gates is now in the plugin manager so go check it out.

Omg, I only have a bobble cap and a muffler...at least adequate for some trip to Antarctica.

Any other date as "War for New York" seems to be MotW on Aug 10?

Thanks.

mbauer · Post by **mbauer** » Mon Aug 03, 2009 2:45 pm

Yeah that was me, I fixed it. I was moving stuff around and had put Antarctica back in the wrong slot. Then I got sidetracked... sorry 'bout the confusion. All is back to the way it should be. Antarctica is MOTW next week. Then Hot Gates after that.

Post by **dustin** » Fri Aug 21, 2009 5:37 pm

I've mixed around the list of upcoming MOTWs, so MB's date promises are no longer correct in some cases. But we'll do our best to get requested maps a slot eventually.
