Conquer Club Bracket Tourny - Version 18 [abandoned]

I look at this project and at the Hypercube and I think "novelty map." Users might play this once and then never come back to it. Am I wrong?

Probably not for the most part.

I'm not sure that's reason enough to say the map shouldn't be made. I'm not saying we should have tons of 'novelty' maps on the site, but a few doesn't hurt anyone. And, if it fits into a niche group then that makes it worthwhile.

I'll be updating this again soon, just have been taking a short break from it.

Final doesnt look good...Maybe raise the text "Final" above spot thus creating room for armys

I agree... it sort of looks like a drawer coming out of the final box. It might look better if it was all one shape, with the same bevel all around.

Alright, I'll undo it, but it looked good with the armies in there I thought.

i agree with cazmart final looks ugly...also are the final boxers lighter than the other? Keep up the good work Coleman!

Optical illusion? They are the same brightness in my software. That is odd...

the borders around the boxes dont all look the same
the blue ones look thicker
and the S(B,G,P,R) just look strange..

might be my computer image settings...otherwise thats the only thing i can think that might be wrong...good map

Need to be more descriptive on that last part. I'll look at the box thickness of things.

the more i look at...You should align the text different...instead of everything being left aligned have things on left be left aligned...right be right aligned and final have text raised above territory

absolutely concur...please coleman remember this map!

Coleman · Post by **Coleman** » Mon Jan 21, 2008 7:49 pm

I do, lost a bit of desire to work on it after I was around a lot of people that really didn't like it. I'll get back to it soon.

Kaplowitz · Post by **Kaplowitz** » Mon Jan 21, 2008 9:25 pm

I just wanna say: your are a genius for using PowerPoint for some of it! That was so smart! This happens to be one of the nicer looking maps that i feel that i could possibly re-create!

bspride · Post by **bspride** » Wed Jan 23, 2008 8:34 pm

yes it might be a specialty map...but it will probably be used a lot in tourneys...and it is such an original idea for a CC Map! Keep up the work

The tourneys are what I'm really anxious for

this map would have killed for the finals in the 2007 College Basketball Tourney!

bspride · Post by **bspride** » Thu Feb 14, 2008 8:40 pm

i guess this map is dead...

Kaplowitz · Post by **Kaplowitz** » Thu Feb 14, 2008 9:03 pm

Coleman you lazy bum finish the map!

Okay, I'm undecided here, what should be done with this?
