Creating 1500 maps really is outstanding, I'm not even gonna start on the positive impact you had on other map and script creators.
Your ideas transformed the game(s) and made them so much more, even though you may not get as much appreciation as you deserve.

I'm no exception, usually I'm just part of the silent majority (Guess that "Not being scolded is praise enough" rubbed off on me), and hereafter
I probably will disappear again, but while I am here:

Thank you, for everything you did for all of us!

About this map:

Giving every single runner so much payload that they spill over the chasm protecting your starting position was a nasty surprise. A fair warning would have been nice.

Not gonna vote on this map, not gonna play again / finish either.

I made that same mistake my first go, and got thoroughly skunked.

Spoiler

Don't start in the upper left quandrant, start at the bottom-middle.

Give it another go and have some fun.

My strategy was:

Spoiler

Start on the left/up white area with many energy totems. In short time destroy as many as possible SporeTowers etc. and build many Beams and other units.
Then (aftor about 1 min20s) move CN and all units to the down/central area of the map.

Good lu! :)

I also went top left but I stayed there. I put out a network of relays which was quite hard to maintain for the first few minutes!

Nice play.

First and foremost - Yum, grats on 1500 (!) that's just Yumazing!

Secondly, LOVE the spores! They blanketed the entire screen, and... and...

And the dual-beams' red glare... the spores bursting in air
Gave proof through the night that our YUM was still there!

Thirdly, Dom dude. I tried so hard to beat your score of 9:17 but ended up with 9:27. 9:27:23.3 to be exact. So you prolly can't even see my score from where you are, lol. Nice scorez. ;)

My solution was to just start on the bottom and hand out beams like the government be passin' out stimulus money. Then you can just sit back and enjoy the show. Pretty cool.

Thanks for all your maps, Yum. You rock! ;D ;D ;D ;D
