    Okay, so I had two different ideas and wanted to try and make them into maps. I have almost everything planned out, just need help forging. If you want to help, please help on both maps.

    The ideas:

    Run, kids, run:

    This one started out as a joke, and developed into a bright idea. Here's a simple equation to sum it up: Michael Jackson (zombie) + kids (humans) = fun, fun, fun...
    The map is going to be like a city/town, with Mr. Jackson's house in one corner of the map. In his house will be the "fun box". There will be multiple traps on the map leading to the fun box, where MJ will rape you. Michael will be invincible, normal speed, and have lower gravity. The kids will be moderately faster, invisible, and have normal/higher gravity.

    It'll be an arena-type map for snipers. I was thinking of making a rectangular floor out of double boxes, then putting up walls on the sides to prevent escape. Just your basic arena so far. Here's the twist: in the middle will be a line of missing double boxes, and tons of explosives put on instant respawn. This could make for some serious fun.

    I would be glad to help with your maps. I was also wondering if you could help me with my map I plan on making.
    Just PM me if you want to.

    The first gametype seems like it wouldn't work at all, the kids would just assassinate Michael or they'll just hide until the time runs out, making the game an epic fail and an instant quit. Seems like that one ghost busters gametype, by Nathon Green.

    The second, has been done before and I'm telling you right now it will get boring and annoying because of the repetitive explosions. Need I mention the lag it will produce if you don't have a godly internet connection.

    Sorry, but to me, I see no innovation and probably another over-look in the ForgeHub community.

    1. That can be fixed with a simple honor rule and no time limit.
    2. Yeah, you're right, I forgot about the lag.

    Honor Rules are not always the best idea considering there will always be that one ignorant player online that will screw everything up. I think a better fix is to ditch the idea and take a look at all the options you have in the different variants of gametypes. All I have to say is make a game off an idea that you know will be fun for not only you, but also the other players in your party. Always make sure there's that "Let's play that again" feeling, if it doesn't then don't be afraid and scrap it. Trust me on this one, I'm only try to be helpful.
