Why ? It's a really good map while still being hard cause it doesn't fall into overmapping. Plus I dunno about the other one but the empress is really really hard to map and you did it very well I think.I wont name names, but Ive spoke to some BN's about this. In the past they have gotten a lot of flak from the community and higher ups for bubbling certain maps around this difficulty. So I guess they dont wanna take the risk again. To be fair those maps were trash.
ok I stop posting without mod now
Plus Im not a well known mapper so I cant even get a reply from most of them. Regarding the mapping, I actually undermapped a decent amount of this to keep it playable, I never intended for it to be any higher than 8.1 originally.
All that said I will try to rank this. But Ill be happy just knowing people like it if I cant get it ranked.
