    All these names are to be used by me:
    Altar
    Refraction
    Memorium
    You can use these names:
    Runoff
    Destruction
    Canyons Fall
    Redemption
    Revelation
    Arburetum
    Waterway
    Crash
    Hospital
    Salvation
    These are pretty good names.

    Sounds super awesome and goes with the meaning.

    Map Style: Competitive
    Map Name Preferences: -
    Map Quality Named After: -
    Map Name Meaning: -
    Map Description: An asymmetrical map that can be used for Crazy King, Slayer with custom options, or Team Slayer with the same custom options. There are two 'bases' on either side for Red and Blue, each with their own unique style. The map has 3 levels. The first level is the most enclosed, the second level is a bit more open with a hole going through the middle to allow for drop-downs, and the 'third level' is basically a network of pathways for the most open of areas. The main features of the map are an 'elevator' on the red side made out of man cannons that allow you to go from the first level to the second level and the second level to the third level; on the blue side there are bridges that can bring you from the first level to the second level, and then a set of staircases made out of braces and teleporters that bring you from the second level to the third level.

    EDIT: Sidenote: I currently have the map named as 'Pathwinder', but looking for a better name.

    So it gets more open and less cramped as you go up? Could "Opening Up" work?

    Map Style: Team SWAT
    Map Name Preferences: something to do with a observatory or lab
    Map Quality Named After:
    Map Name Meaning:
    Map Description: It is a SWAT map and is designed to be like a abandoned research facility and it has a volcano in the middle of the map. It sort of reminds me of Guardian.

    My map preview has some pics but I just recently updated my map thanks to my friend used man (who helped test my map) and so I fixed up some forging and I'm still debating on if I should keep the top part or take it off.

    Invert
    Risen
    High Times
    High Noon
    Topside
    Wayside
    Evolve
    Tumbling
    Tumbleworks

    That's about it for now



    Edit:

    Map Style: Predator (trust me :surprise:range:)
    Map Name Preferences: Nothing too complicated. Just something easy and memorable that gives off characteristics of the map.
    Map Quality Named After: Preferably the way the map plays, rather than any part of the map itself.
    Map Description: Large, "Junglelike" map with dauntingly large Forerunner pieces covering half of the Canyon and the Caves. Combines areas that look remotely alike style-wise, but have different playstyles, tactics and weaponry attached to them. Ideally, no two playthroughs will be the same.

    Additional Notes: Currently, the map is called "Hunting Grounds".

    That's not exactly what I'm looking for. Concrete Jungle gives off too much of a "city" vibe, even though "concrete" and "jungle" are two words that by themselves describe my map almost perfectly. Yuitijaya Jautya Yautja is too complicated of a word to tell apart immediately from other maps. I'm looking for something short and sweet that describes the upcoming playthrough rather than the map itself. think I'll just keep it at "Hunting Grounds" for now. Sorry if I've wasted anyones time.

    Surviving the Game
    Game Hunt

    Something to do with the word 'game' would be cool IMO.

    "Dodge" could work, since they have to get the hell out of it.

    "Mousehole" could work, if there are any (holes in walls that serve as alternate entrances) in the map.

    The Accelerator(s)
    MAC Defense
    Orbital Defense
    The Batteries
    Robo Arena
    Cold Storage
    Headquarters
    Launch Station
    Research Facility
    Air Strike
    Comm Station
    Scrapyard

    This map is still in production. This is just what its planned to be. PM me with the name please. I got nothing and I don't want to dig through these for a response. Its a city.

    Map Style: Mid-range with a side of warthog battles and long-range rooftop battles
    Map Name Preferences:
    Map Quality Named After:
    Map Name Meaning: Large yet enclosed OR Open topped
    Map Description: A large city. There are 2-D buildings in the background to conserve budget. A hard kill zone makes them unreachable but there is a soft kill as a warning. There may be a park. The streets are wide enough to comfortably fit two warthogs so this COULD be used for Machinima. There is a docks area which will have an undetermined power weapon. The City in the canyon's beach area. Each team spawns at opposite cliffs. Some buildings are enterable but some are barricaded closed. There will be roof top battles with DMRs. The buildings are 3 stories tall at maximum.
