6000 custom maps!

[Kingo]

Currently the custom map counter is at 5999 custom maps.
Soon, it will reach 6000!
I myself am developing and testing a map right now.

[Kingo]

As of now the counter is 6002 custom maps!

Was a time the community would have made a celebratory map for each milestone....

[Neko187]

I'm sure virgil will make a special one for 10k :)

[Kingo]

I'll probably include the date of the release of the maps released at the 6000-map mark in an artifact on my next map.
I'll be submitting mine for some time... hope I stick around long enough to see us reach 10k!

[Imposter]

Do you think 10k will happen? I imagine once CW3 comes out, CW1 will likely take a great fall in newly created maps.

[pawel345]

Not sure of that, CW3 will make all the games spike in popularity, so I think even more CW1 maps might be created. But we will have to wait quite some time for 10k probably.

[Kingo]

Yeah, there are still a few mapmakers for CW1 going, like Bacura.
Still, at this rate it may be a while before we hit even 7000 maps.

I've now been playing CW1 for over an hour a day for about 18 months now. I see no indication of getting bored yet and have every hope that people will continue to be inspired to make new maps for quite some time to come. CW1 is a classic and people will continue to discover and rediscover it.

I can't believe I only paid US$ 4.95 for this game  ;D ;D ;D

[Grauniad]

I can't believe I only paid US$ 5 for this game  ;D ;D ;D

Feel free to send Virgil the other $494.99!  :)

If you had set up a micropayment system one could subscribe to. Under which for each custom map played a small donation was made to VW and (based on a rating scheme) a fraction to the custom mapmaker as well... (or just to VW for chronom maps....)

I'll be buying CW3 alright - not to play it, but because I want to thank VW for CW1...

You should buy two then. One to pay for CW1 and one to pay for CW3.  :P It's really awesome.

VW? volkswagen?
on a side note, we mostly refer to virgilw with V instead of VW

Setting up such a micropayment system would require every mapmaker to have an account. But if every registered copy of CW3 had a virtual balance (not allowing anyone to buy coins)... Still turns out bad, don't play any custom maps if you want to keep your coins.

[Anonymeus]

or perhaps try a CWFAAS* model....?
