My very first map, all kinds of criticism (including the rude ones, but only if you can't avoid) are welcome.
Don't make a slog just because. Be like Master Mapmaker SPIFFEN:

(...)Difficulty is subjective. (...)
SPIFFEN chooses to rate each map as trivial because they believe that the difficulty of the map depends on the capability of the player.
BAD RATING: MEASUREMENT OF MAP HARDNESS.

I have a feeling this is a very clever map. But.... I don't get it :(

in the 1990 movie "Ghost", the main character proves his existance to a unbelieving Demi Moore in a very special way...

Fun, intriguing and unique, despite spending 30 minutes watching paint dry or should I say creeper evaporate too fast for my liking.

I get it, but how do you do that? It breaks all the rules of CW2. Why does that work?

Do what? If you mean creeper evaporating - it always does that, any  creeper density below 10 disappears instantly, probably to make sure the creeper doesn't spread too fast.

@lich98 Emitters around the nexus are set to start in 3600 seconds (1 hour) - same as its cycle in the game screen. They are there to give you a feeling that the nexus is dormant, and as a fail safe against an unwinnable map if you don't pay attention and just scrub the map.

@fitz the only guy I know that may have broken some rule in the game was the guy from the "secret [hex-edited] rain map"... #284 got approved by map mods anyway.

My 28 minute time was made in a very confortable pace. It can be done in 10 minutes as shown in the scores

To fight back the Creeper all you need is. . . What? Energy.
