There's apparently a ~6 second InfoCache cheese on most/all of these maps.  Original mapmaker did not complete all objectives prior to submitting to Colonies.  These appear to be slightly modified Chronom maps.

I still firmly believe mapmakers should be required by the game and the server to complete ALL objectives in a single map run before they can post to Colonies.

My opinion is these maps should be removed since there's now no challenge to complete the required objectives.

Starting with a Chronom map as the basis of a 4RPL mission style map is actually an okay idea.  The Chronom map generator regularly produces usable maps.  That isn't what has been done here though.
