http://youtu.be/RTZ79Kmm5AYOverall it's a nice map but I'm not sure about how I solved:
* [spoiler]The part where you have to go up near the faithplates.[/spoiler]
* [spoiler]The part where you enable the lightbridge[/spoiler]
* [spoiler]The part where you need to get into the funnel yourself[/spoiler]The amount of cubes was also quite high and it would've been a good idea to also make the [spoiler]lift[/spoiler] cube stand out a bit more from the others.
Other than that a nice funny map. 4/5 great.

In my map "Aperture Valentine - the advanced chambers":

It's obvious that you are not even playing ours, just spamming! Would you please stop that?

- You can make your own download page, this will automatically generate a thread for your level too!
- You can post it in "Post your workshop maps here"
And you can always ask people who are doing Let's Plays or other video things if they want to play your map, either by putting it into their thread or sending a private message.Those are the things that you can use to promote your map once it's out. Spamming your map everywhere is absolutely counter productive; it will get people pissed off at you, making them LESS likely to play your map. It also shows a lack of respect for the map maker who made the map you were playing/clicking. Personally if someone posts "check out my map" on my workshop items without any proper feedback it's kicked off immediately.
Here on twp we don't really have rules for people spamming their maps because generally this is a community of mappers who want to help each other getting better, not people who are constantly looking for boosting their ego. I can imagine posts like this feeling like spam, if you do think it's spam: report the message and we'll look into it. We might remove the message and/or sent an official warning.
