For those of you who don't know "Thunderbird" is a frequent alias of mine. It's an old map, I hope it hasn't been too patch broken. :blush:

Hey, nice. 'Grats.

Just out of curiousity, how many lurkers have been recognized by Blizzard in one form or another? I bet it's a lot.

[Wyrm]

Congratulations. I couldn't exactly see what you were being recognized for though... Was it in one of the Flash animations?

I am now officially featured Warcraft III map maker. :wub: No entry required aparently, I just happened to surf over to battle.net and see my map's name. My first instinct was "someone stole my map!" :lol:


Edit:

Icecrown hangs in the balance. One final battle between good and evil will decide the fate of all. There are many Aeon-style maps out there, but this is one of the more refined, balanced Aeons, complete with good hero choices, shop items, and troop upgrades, and an interesting movable-terrain dynamic at the center. Choose your strategy, and push for the win!

The first line in that quote is from the map. So much cheesy stuff I stuck in just to get it done. The map's name alone was suggestion from Lum that I shrugged my shoulders and stuck in. "It's Icecrown tileset right? Call it battle for icecrown" :rolleyes: It was the new island terrain until Tides of Blood came out about a week before I was done with the first version.

Heh, I remember playing an early version of that map with you a long time ago. Nice to see you got some recognition for it :)

Wow, that list reads like a who's who of the lurkerlounge. Just another reminder of how proud I am to be a part of such a great community!

Heh, I remember playing hardcore (as DeeBye put it) D2 with both of you. You both had wolfish druids (among other characters).

This is my sons newest favorite map. I downloaded and uncompressed it, thinking I would surprise him with it. But he found it for himself and...

"Hey, Dad!!! Look at this map! You can choose any one of these cool heroes!!!"

Not "any one". The ones people complained about a lot being "too strong" are only avalible if you choose random. I found this to be a great modivation for people not to try and set up the perfect team of non-random heroes. B)

Still he has grasped quite alot of the nuance of WC3 for being five.

Yup, that's right. EVery other lurker provided content, and here's me just providing editing help... and I'm not even the resident grammar Nazi :P

P.S. Congrats on the listing, I would've responded when I first saw the thread, but was locked out from posting here at the time (happens occasionally to me... just time out attempting to post).

P.P.S. I saved a copy of the Arreat Summit credits page way back when, to use for my CV... not sure how I'd try to explain that one to a prospective employer though :P

And yet, somehow, my name is left out of the credits, despite giving input for the Druid section and being ASKED to take some screenshots for it.

I'm suing!!!

*ahem* Or not. It still says "Submitted by Zarathustra" on my screenshots at least. B)
