That is the question.
I voted this map down, it didn't seem to me that you cared at all for what you were doing, also instead of calling your map players whimps, take to damn gem out!

yeah wimps was bit mean, especially when he meant "unobservant" :D personally i didn't grab the insulting gem, just heard about it ;) but the map is quite good i think, good enough to steal an idea from for me anyway

This is most uncalled for. I can't make out quite what you were on about, since your grammar lacks structure, or you made one or more typos.
If it was up to me this map would have been rejected for the unused space at the bottom. However, in all other aspects it is a clever and brilliant map - more so than a lot of other maps that are submitted. Your comments made me wonder if you actually played this map, since I did - at least 3 times and it was a lot of fun. I still haven't found the path to a decent time, but there are a number of strategies that one can follow.
Ultimately the map maker provided everything that is needed to beat this map, yet the player has to think and manage their resources carefully.
I suggest you reconsider your vote - or not, as you wish, I always tell map makers to disregard thumbs, since a number of misinformed voters always down-vote a map (or, in the case of some map makers always up-vote a map), regardless of its merits.
I would have played this map if it weren't for the red gem that could be picked up. Not going to bother with that gem there however.

If you can't make out what I was on about, then why is it you said it was uncalled for. Please clarify. You claim not to understand what I was talking about but you still commented....it makes no sense to me.
As far as the map goes, it's quite easy. Calling players whimps when the game practically beats it into us to collect gems is mean and unfair. I voted the map down due to that, nothing further.
I vote based on alot of things, since I am a map maker myself, I would never call the players of my maps anything mean because I understand the game trains us as players to collect gems and other items. Ask any player and I am sure they will tell you the same.
Please don't make comments that can be taken as mean when you admit you don't understand what you are commenting about, thanks.
Good map full of innovations, but the special red gem spoils everything.
Clearly we have a bunch of bitter old Battle.net players still sulking over the useless gem that taunted you on there.
