Very humbly, I did the 2nd room by

Spoiler

portaling at full speed from the slated panel

in front of the exit. Probably took 15 tries because of the geometry andor exploit blockers, but it is possible. Also notice how jumping from the white wall on the same level as the exit closes the door, being prevented.

the hills are alive... with the sound of music

There's some more bugs in your map.
Here's a video showing an alternate way to get to the exit.

Also at the beginning of your map you can walk out of the elevator as it's rising and get stuck in the floor.

Um, 91 votes for a rating of 5 on a first time map? When the thread only has 12 posts? And people calling out bugs in the thread?

Something seems sketchy there.

I've had the same thing happen to my map. Someone's got a bot or something to generate redundant accounts to distort the voting, why someone would bother to do that. I have no idea.

In case this isn't completely obvious there is no limit on how many times you can vote atm.

Which is in serious need of fixing. As I've read from msleeper and a few other moderators, they're looking for a more effective way to rate and highlight maps. Honestly, some of the best maps I've played weren't even rated 5. The rating system can seriously be whacked.

Yeah, the admins are aware that the download database plugin isn't the best. We're doing what we can to improve matters.
