    Well, this is flawed. Goutnuts DID score higher than any map (besides Project X) for aesthetics... yet came in third?

    Explain pl0x?

    There are some very interesting reviews there...

    Well your entire contest is a bit debatable (a lot debatable), and theres a lot I could say about a lot, but thats impossible without offending anyone. Anyway, if this is seasonal, I suggest you gather a few more judges, and get more than just like 3 people.

    lol...Im just gonna say some stuff to avoid spam.
    Stealth/resix I didnt slam your map because you didnt have a budget glitch. That was a joke. Camoflaug and many other people have great maps forged on budgets. Yours just wasnt one of them. I've created dozens of maps on a budget for example an old map I made called ruins was my first assymetrical map and many people liked it. This was 6 months ago and now i am much better at forging than before but you get the gyst of what i am saying. I was saying that stuff because you were lazy about a lot of the parts on your map. ex. The angled geomerges towards both walls. And you spent only about half a week on testing the map. I did actually play on the map but it was so open that spawn camping was very easy when you were up on the center peice with that sniper rifle. Unless you had a BR start. You may think im a ***** but w/e. I back my reviews on maps up with important details and I'm very honest. My review on Maverick is as follows and AmericanPsycho and many others approved of it because it was accurate and had important details to back it up. This reply has gotten much longer than I had originally expected.
    PS: Dont hate on my maps just because other people liked them more than you did.

    *UPDATE*
    Best Aesthetic has been changed to goatnuts's Map. This is nothing against Linubidix. There was a little typo.

    Sorry, hope you guys understand.

    PS. The contest will not be around in the winter. I have learned that the contest creates too much anger over who won and some
    people cannot handle it.

    Wow thanks for giving Haven the best map rating :]

    Remember that the Version 2 was altered for gameplay, so if you never tried playing v2 then go grab it :]

    It's not so much that people are angry about losing as they are upset over less than acceptable reviews in many people's opinions.

    And yes, it's opinion, but when a lot of people disagree with you, it says something.

    Excuse me kind sir but I do believe that it was more then just The Knight reviewing the maps.

    I believe you sentance should be something like

    "Theknight, Cosmic Rick, Bloumbas, Pj, and Drak suck at reviewing maps. Oh and I'm a little on the sore side."

    I'm sore because my non-existing map lost. You're right.

    I just played a few of these maps and I strongly disagree.

    Iuno bloum, some of those reviews were extremely unfair, and I really can't see rick marking some of those maps so bad. Perpetuate? A five? Really? No way in hell. Sure you may not enjoy the "map hazards", but thats an EXTREMELY unfair rating. Some ratings are higher than they should be as well.

    Well my disc broke halfway through the reviewings but I can assure you guys that the reviews before there were completely fair. We completely agreed on everything.

    Thats true...

    Some maps were fun to play on!
    but then the other grading scale came in and brought it down, so
    sorry if your mad dude, but we all agreed fairly and accurately

    Meh I'm not mad, I have nothing to be mad about, but there seems to be a large amount of disagreement over your guys' reviews. Thats all.

    I wasn't talking about your judging, I was talking about everyone else. Honestly, I don't really care...I just think it's hilarious you could even rate a map 5.5/30. A map that gets 5.5 is like a non-interlocked, foundry style map with a crap load of power weapons.

    its individual scores though...
    aesthetics - 2/10
    gameplay - 4/10
    other - 3/10

    = 9/30

    not that it sucks out of 30 its indiv categories

    to answer your Q

    its a featured map, and featured ones are disqualified

    Do you have written reviews of the maps? I wouldn't mind seeing those. My argument is you give maps like clockworks, squared circle, project x, cave freaks pretty much every single map you list has a higher aesthetic score than perpetuate. How? Are you looking for cool, gimicky "aesthetics or just well done interlocks. I can assure, cave freaks is not about aesthetics. As for the rest of those maps, well constructed yes, but whats so much better about clockworks structural aesthetics than perpetuates? How on earth does cave freaks score that high of an aesthetic score? That doesn't even make sense, the reviews don't match eachother. I happen to know that perpetuate structural build and interlocks are near perfect. Waylander threw in some other cool stuff as well. Maybe you don't like the mancannons and the flying debris, but honestly the gameplay is a lot better than you say so.

    I only use perpetuate because it's a map I've played on enough to know about it. I'm sure if I played the rest of the maps you rated lower more than once I'd disagree about their marks as well.
