Like Fort 2 I was also able to rush Fort by Xylnalya. Expert Only as well and even updated to be rush proof; it took me 45 sec / 9874.

Darkness 11 STILL leads to rushed.

Sorry! ;) For a map with 4 emitters with intensity 1000, a total of 26 emitters and 40 totems, I think 4:32 / 9295 is pretty nice.

By the way: the number of emitters and totems doesn't make it that much harder, it will only make it cost more time.  To make a map harder (in general) I would rather alter the terrain so it limits where you can build, increase the intensity of emitters and limit the amount of (prebuild) units you offer the player.  Especially the latter allows me to (ab)use them for 'other purposes' and finish the map in a different way than intended by the author.

Edit: The same goes for Oh snap. Rated Hard and already updated, but still possible in 2:24 / 9613. I guess I better stop posting here, for reasons mentioned before; almost every map could be listed as pwned.

I'm afraid I don't understand you. Repeating the same words won't change that.... ;)

I'd say Ara. There's always this little open path free of Creeper between the left two emitters (it goes all the way across the pyramid, actually) where I can easily build through and put a Blaster in the back where the Totems are.

Unless that's supposed to be there. I don't think it is.

And some likely things, too!

Oh, now I get you. You mean Karsten (not me) linked to the wrong map in the list in the first post.

You might consider being a little more clear....

EDIT: My browser seems to have autoposted an odd bit of text for me. I do not approve. Here is what I was going to say:
Just to get something in each category, I'd like to nominate Cetus (No weapons needed? I'm sorry, but this one really does need to be a little tougher. It's the only level in the main game where I don't need to worry about the creeper on double down mode), Grim 5 (Just connect to the totems with collectors while building speed nodes and you're done), and ChopRaider (Even I can get out of that helicopter before the first spore wave).

Twi

If we're making a Trivial and Easy section, I nominate Palisades (http://knucklecracker.com/creeperworld/mapcomments.php?page=&sort=&author=&id=1143&scores=1), by myself. It's supposed to have a thirty minute win timer.

Clearly, someone won in a lot less than thirty minutes.

I'm adding/updating a few things, but I'm not adding Chopraider before I see a video of someone beating it before the first spore wave!  :)

Youtube hasn't been accepting my videos lately, so you'll need to get that video elsewhere. Or alternatively, just look at the scoreboard, where hi has finished it in 1:45.

actually i stopped making maps for cw and too lazy to fix current ones...

Daos

Some of my maps are set to high in difficulty. Mostly because I am just a new player and they felt hard for me ^^ (or at least I THOUGHT they would be hard ...). But in the end someone else has to judge this difficulty.
