    That wraps it up. I must say thank you to the many, many people who tested this with me at one point or another. That's a lot of gamertags that I owe a cheeseburger to the owners of. Thanks guys!! Good luck to everyone in the contest, this one is turning into quite the barn burner!!

    I really enjoyed testing this with you and I'm glad you got all of the kinks out. You have always been really creative in your forge endeavors and I am glad to see another map coming from such an artist. You have a keen eye for detail. I especially loved the idea of "snake eyes" at the bottom of the death pit. In addition, the "bolts" in some of the free-standing structures really add to the atmosphere. Not only did it look awesome. It played awesome. I think the camo and jetpack both suited the map very well and I am glad you cut it down from 8 armor abilities. :p

    Good luck in the Throwdown Competition!

    I really enjoyed the game I played on this map, for a relatively small map it manages to offer lots of variation and action

    The tree provides easy orientation and a great design feature

    The spawns work well and I like the aa's which both work well

    Great work as usual!

    EDIT - I want my tasty burger!

    Thanks and I guess that attempt to steer the gameplay back to default Reach (with all the AAs I had) was a bit subversive of the intentions of the guys running the contest. Not that I have any problems being subversive, but it's only fun if you don't get caught, lol.

    Thanks and sorry I only managed to get you in on the one final test we did, and that we were outnumbered 2 to 3 during that game. haha. I'm working on that burger, I need to get the sauce just right and then it's yours.
