it's probably cos your maps are a bit messily laid out and generally need only one approach to win.
if a map has an inhibitor it means that most players will just go for a fast kill to win the whole map, and if you haven't made killing the inhibitor a lot of fun you won't get good ratings.
try making the player have to do more before killing the inhib, you can stop air attacks with AEZ's or disallow air units, you can have no berthas or thor (but don't put too many powerful creeper sources if you limit the titans).
or just don't have an inhibitor?
on this thread for a previous map of yours

i also posted some ideas on map design, and if you want maps playtested post the map/s attached to a custom map discussion thread and people will play test and give contructive criticism.
please make more maps, but maybe "fewer and better" than "many and rushed" will get better ratings.
this is all said to be helpful not hurtful, i hope it helps  8)

Correct.

not helpful  ::) or constructive   ;) perhaps you could elaborate on why you don't like this map?
if the criticism is contructive and not rude it will mean we can get better maps as a community.  :)
