Don't know why I thought of this...I just did. After testing this map out with Demonic this pretzel shape lands itself to a DM style match. There is very little health on this map and it's part of the challenge. It's a small map, so there's not much scenery used. The emphasis is on close combat. If anyone wants to put this into their server rotation I'd be honored. Here's the breakdown:

*Supports deathmatch, pointmatch, team match, and rambo match
*Good for 5-10 players
*No custom sceneries - I couldn't make a salty background texture that looked good enough ;)
*One custom texture (Jerk - by Soap) This is included in the .zip file, make sure you put it in your textures folder. Also included is jerke which is the edge for this texture. Put that in the edges folder inside your textures folder.
*Waypointed

Haha, that's great. Looks like a weirdo with an unebrow. I like the looks of it though! ;)

Damnit, how can it look like any of those things? It's most clearly a pretzel..look at the background, not the polys! Stupid people, stupid! /me uses the ruler

Nah...jk, lol. Thanks for the comments. Any of you played the map yet, have any comments on gameplay?

Yea, I have a comment: MAKE THIS A DEFAULT MAP.The gameplay kicks ass, you can sneak attack anyone, anywhere, anytime, and you must fear these attacks, so the tense is immense.

Nice map, looks like a DM version of ctf_nuubia qua gameplay.

-edit-

Oh, and btw, the smallest jerk.bmp-file need to be copied in the 'edges' folder, not just in the textures folder.

Doh...my mistake there, I thought it didn't matter so long as it's in the textures folder. Thanks for the comments guys!

This map is sweet, excelent shading (though not original), good color selection and awesome, kick ass gameplay...

By the way, its a little scary, looks like a skull to me... :/

Thanks! But how is my shading not original?

Yes, i think everyone is using this kind of shading with dark inside and light outside. Maybe the shading could be like...em...different on each polygon.
