    Dude you need to get a color promotion for helping out the site so much.
    I'm working on a map now, but I can't think of a good, original idea...

    Once again request the addition of Locked Out v2 to the SMD.
    Remake/altered version of Lockout.

    Please update my map in the Remake section of add this seperately. And the sooner the better. Everyone just got sandbox and they are looking for specific maps

    Isn't this thread 100% pointless, because you can just filter each map forum separately to display only sandbox maps.....

    Then you have to go through each individual forum just to get a summary of that map. This makes it waaay easier.
    Who has played Grifball High(sky?) yet? I want to, but I still need to unpack from a camp :lol:

    It used to be worthwhile, because there weren't a whole lot of people who actually had the mythic map pack. Now that it's been released to the public, trying to chronicle all of the different sandbox maps that have been published is going to be like trying to find a colony of ants, give a name to each individual ant in that colony, and list some unique characteristic of each one. It can be done, but the work it would require is so exhaustive that the person/people in charge of it would have to be doing nothing but chronicling maps until and through the release of ODST.

    In other words, Titmar is completely right. The concept of trying to maintain this thread is a nightmare in and of itself.

    It's weeks old because i'm working on an update that will allow the database to in a sense update almost instantly.. would you rather have a bland regular looking thread for a database or somthing more user friendly and easier on the eyes, i prefer the latter of the two.

    No offense Titmar, i don't know you that well, but the only thing you've seem to have done since i made this post is try to find ways to bash it, your previous two arguements will become meaningless soon enough, just wait for the update to come out and be patient, this update is also why i haven't updated this in a while.

    When i find time to stop working on the bigger and more important update i will spend about 2 and a half hours logging links, map names, and creators names on notepad to update this thing as best as possible.

    Just be patient.

    My update would be out sooner and may have been out already if i had some feedback from a good amount of people in my suggestions/add-ons/ideas thread.

    If anyone would like to make any suggestions it'd make my job alot easier and alot faster, I'd really appreciate it :D

    If anyone was wondering why i haven't been on in so long it is because i've been constantly working on this update or schoolwork.

    Request addition of The Doog Nit (Doog Nit's Sandbox race map remake of Rainbow Valley from Mario Karts on the Gamecube) in the Non-Halo Remakes section.

    I think you just PM him, because it's not like he's going to continue looking at this thread everytime somebody posts a map. I'm just to lazy to PM him my maps.

    To be honest, by now this thread is quite useless. Why keep updating it? I don't recall there being a specific thread made just for Foundry maps when it came out, so why the **** start now? I realize Sandbox is a tad bit more special, but really you don't need a "Database" thread, when people can take a few moments to apply the filter to Sandbox only maps.

    And to be sensible, if you really think you need to keep this thread to make yourself feel better about it, at least move it to the main Maps forum. It has no reason to be in Forge, as its not really Forge related.

    I'm not trying to be rude or bring your work down saying its crap. I'm trying to show you a bit of reason as to why the idea around this thread is flawed.
