Well, then where is the balance, panic, or the Christmas tree, for that matter? :D Why isn't 8xm8a used in offline battles year after year? Why choose a mirror map instead of a normal diamond map, when most players have little experience with it? Why does skirmish end up in the map pool for M200? If a player has to play on all map types, why not have a map pool of 15-17 maps, like in "One for All," instead of forcing everyone to play with Jebus and other awful 8-player maps?
In general, the list of maps can be discussed endlessly; there are no standards, but a random map selection is definitely better than a forced selection.
In "One for All," that's exactly how it is: 15-17 maps, Christmas trees, and random map selection. And what, are you suggesting that the same scheme should be copied from tournament to tournament? By the way, there have been about 10 M200 tournaments, and this is already the third anarchy tournament, which speaks to the popularity of these map types. As for balance/panic/Christmas tree, I honestly don't remember. :)
I've already written and said many times why certain maps are included in the forced selection; it's all in the first post, and it's been in every offline battle or Facebook battle, and I hope it will continue to be! There's always some unique element with the map selection/castles; after all, it's a special tournament, similar to RP, and a regular random map selection is too boring. :)

From my purely amateur point of view, in the current pool, m200 and Anarchy could be replaced with Mini-Nost and 2sm4d(3) (not Diamond, since it already exists as a mirror map). Such a map pool would be more conservative, perhaps. But there would be less variety, and fans of the m200 and Anarchy playstyles would only have to wait for themed tournaments.
It's possible, but why are these two maps better than others? More conservative? That's a weak argument. Variety is a different positive aspect, plus I chose them to please everyone: 4 HL+U maps + 3 L+U maps (2 mirrors and Anarchy, which contradict each other) + Jebus + M200. That is, everyone should have been able to find something for themselves according to my idea. :)
If I were choosing strictly for myself, there would be no Anarchy or 6LM, and the list would be different, as would the rules. :)

In general, I'm not complaining, and I'm not forcing anyone (free work is always voluntary), but for the next offline battle, look for a different host. Lucky has many ideas, or Lizard does. :rolleyes: or maybe Dark will finally be ready for something worthwhile. :smile24:
