Achievement maps should not be published into CS.
Make these into DMD if you want , but not into CS.

I read the rules yesterday, and I think this is a map to report based on those rules. Am I right or wrong Builder17?

I have mixed feelings about reporting this map. On one hand it's pointless - that much is a given.

On the other hand, it took me just over 2 minutes to beat this. There are many maps with inhibitors that take less time and effort to beat. Granted, the main difference is that most of the map-makers in those cases just didn't realize what they were doing.

Unlike most "achievement" maps, this isn't an "instant-win". You actually have to build something besides a nullifier to win... er, I guess not. You can just use the forge to create a singularity once it builds up about 300-400. But you still have to move something to do that.

I would first just ask the mapmaker to make different kinds of maps. Builder17 is right. Maps like this don't belong in Colonial Space - leave them for the DMD area. If it continues, then yeah I'd be in complete agreement with reporting them.

Thanks!

There's enough play in this map to pass the admittedly low bar we set.

Could someone clarify for me what "leave them for the DMD area" means?

Hey! I want to be a Hero Member!   *Flexes*   Who do I need to rescue to be a hero?  8)

But yeah, I was kinda thinking that the tiny amount of action required to win might be too much to have it reported & deported.


GameGibu, The DMD arena is found on the main screen - it's the "Sun" that says "DMD". All sorts of insta-win maps are there.

In the DMD area, you just make a map from the DMD settings and play it. Once you win, you can name it and I think it posts automatically.
