8 people rated this map and the average is 1.

The rating system should be changed, as it is obviously wrong and flawed.

Nah, it's just an insanely hard level (I guess)

does a hard lever warrant a bad rating?

I tried this level and I don't even know what to do, but that would never translate to a low score. I simply didn't rate it.

quite some people seem to think you have to rate 1/10 when a level is difficult. I don't really know how they got the idea for that, but there isn't much I can do about it.

the 1 rate reflects how much enjoyment most people are having, the map is insanely hard for 90% of all who play CW3 and therefore i find all the 1 ́s both understandable and acceptable  :)

after a first test run where i started both north and south I started in the north so my focus wasn't split between trying to sustain the south AND rush southwards.

I managed to place my totem in a spot that was both accessible fairly early and defensible-if barely-once the wall really started breaking.

It was a close call getting enough berthas online as they were needed.
