[b]Why isn't it played anymore?[/b]

So i guess lots of people have played this map in their time; but for me, it was one of the most influential maps while i was consistently playing CSS. It seems to me that it isn't played a great deal if it all lately...

For me, this map is the one map i used to love running around on, i would load up and run round in create a server going through all the sewers and bunny hopping down middle [i](back when we could bhop :p )[/i]. Playing the map in matches or as i used to call them back then 'scrims' (very americanized) was very different to my jolly run arounds on the server. I solely dedicated myself to playing kitty, B was somewhere far away from where i was used to playing. One nostalgic video for me is [below] i used to obsess over this guys videos thinking they would make me a pro gamer!! Hah.

I am going to try find some frag videos of mill which will hopefully encourage more people to reminisce about 'the good ol days' and hopefully agree to having it become played more often.

[b]Anyway[/b] the point in this is to try and get the UNGL community to start playing it again in matches, as far as im aware there is nothing wrong with the map it could just be down to personal preference for maps. I'm getting bored of the standard dust2, inferno, nuke and tuscan. It's time to change it up a bit and bring back some of the old school maps such as strike and mill!

[b]So what do you say?[/b]

I've always called mill tuscan and tuscan mill, can't help but feel they're the same map; they're so similar.

(after a billion failed attempts to embed the silly thing).

i agree great idea
and the map itself is sick so yeah would love to play it a bit more

Suggestion: a cup with more unusual maps in will mean new strats to be created and will be more fun :) Mill, strike, fire, russka and ??

 MentaLLL
Lost temple/villa

 EsioooOOOOO
yes! :) Forgotten about those maps

The reason it aint played is because Tuscan is a better made more balanced map. You also are saying that lets try and play some new maps but unless you have been hiding in a cave the past 6 months you would know that season and contra are now cropping up in standard map lists on LAN and online.

TUSCAN>

buzzkiLL above me somewhere ....

i recognise they are being played, thats why i havent listed them in my 'proposed' cup idea :)

 MentaLLL
+1

Yeah, if you guys picked one version of it to play then it would be fine, could be said in the rules. Next month sounds better as holidays are starting(i think). The maps i'd propose to play would be cpl_mill, cpl_strike, cpl_fire, russka and either lost temple or villa.

 MentaLLL
Theres a new map out by volcano de_cache hint hint.

 Anto
actually looks pretty good, yeah, scrap losttemple and villa and have de_cache ;]

I can create maps, and if we any admins users and people come up with ideas, sketches and layouts I would be more then happy to create it. Wouldn't even take me long to create, after creation we could get a beta test going and more...

Just an idea but would bring more choice for the future..

 DazzyJ
the only thing i have available is a 2 day map i made for college lol, other then that all i can offer is a quicky :P

with your ideas, maybe some sketches i could produce something of good quality, i can send over maps during making any time to test see what needs doing to make it 100% perfect :P

Would be great as well i need to get more for my portfolio for uni.

hmm, could be good to have a brand new map created, would mean new strats made and bring more traffic/users to ungl

 DazzyJ
wouldn't hurt to try though?

 DazzyJ
what if we are at the 100 meter dash, now that would be silly :P

if i made it, you dnt like, you can throw it back in my face :) im fine with that :P

Try and include parts or aspects of most popular maps and also try and combine it with looks :D And like not secret, but good spots if you get me :)

 MentaLLL
good idea :)

INCLUDE YELLOW. That is all ;D

 Sparky
Eww there is many valid reasons yellow was removed from inferno in the first place just stepping backwards using it again.

 Anto
but if its a new map it doesnt matter? season has one, he could put it anywhere, even out of the map so you cant use it, but you can still see it
