This is a thread to get your name added to a petition. If you want to debate thread merges, you're in the wrong thread - follow your own rules. And if you want to be that anal about it, you should petition to get all the "THE DICE ARE NOT RANDOM!" threads merged into one thread. Join us in reality - we're all a little bit relaxed, it's nice...

why not make 2 maps (they both already exist) ... we have about 80 maps .... so why not offer classic AND classic revamp? it will screws nobody to have one map more and everybody can chose which one he wants to play.

That has been proposed many times but no one ever gives a reply to that question unless I missed it in the various thread merges. I just posted again an earlier post in the foundry where I made some suggestions which were ignored among which this one.

It's okay not to listen to any of the suggestion but at least I would like to get some feedback on them.

As has already been stated, make your suggestions in the map forum thread, as that's where we're looking, not here. That's why all the threads in this forum were locked earlier today, to try to focus the discussion in one place. However, I'm leaving this open as a courtesy so people have somewhere to vent. That way actual progressive discussion can happen in the other thread (hopefully!).

At this point, Lack is just trying to absorb in all the reactions and trying to come up with a suitable plan to answer everyone's needs.

Forgive my one meander into the other threads territory please

Seul, I think the problem is, that the reason they changed the map was to accommodate Visually impaired users. So if we have 2 maps, independent of each other, those with colour-blindness will still be no better off.

As it has been said many times the new map does not help them anyway.

What has been proposed is a 'user script' perhaps, which allows those with sight problems to select another viewing option. (I suggested a bleached version a little like Middle East) that way everyone can play in the same games and see what they are doing.

Anyway all come to the official thread and offer your genius.. i have linked it above my Signature.

wow, 63 signatures. how many do you guys think it would take for lack to change it back??

and if it is successful then let's do a petition to force lack to give us all premium, then a petition to force wicked to give backrubs to everybody.

heck if i start a petition about the backrubs i bet i'd get more signatures than this :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

DiM, you just don't GET IT... i mean, they were only warned about the changes and urged to go to the foundry months ago to offer input and criticism and suggestions. you can't expect all 63 of these people to take a few minutes out of their lives and peek into the changes... i only wish this had been launched on april fools day. that would have made this truly hilarious.-0

I'll be damned, you're right - launching the new map on April fools day truly would have made this hilarious. I actually wish it happened just for the extra confusion/fun factor.

Good sense of humour Owen, you quality for one of my special backrubs. Come on over here baby... 8-)

I will sign the petition with pleasure.

and LYC: my premium is up in a week and as I play mostly on Classic, this issue could play a huge role in whether I re-up or not.
I am serious...and don't call me Shirley.

Can we expect such pleasant responses when we give our opinion in the Map Foundry as well?

Again, I put a LYC there, not saying I won;t be back, just that it could have an impact...and maybe the pro-change are right, the more I play on the new map the less of an issue it will be, but right now it is an issue for me *shrug*
and apparently I'm not alone.

Stay classy Owen.

no, if you go there and stop complaining in the GD, and are actually constructive, you are treated with respect and listened to. when you bitch and moan and quote obvious ron burgundy lines, i MOCK YOU!-0

Please dont feed the trolls who obviously have no lives, except to talk S and hit the refresh button on their myspace.

If you are not on the list:
1. and you were on the first
2. want to be
3. missed your post to be

Please repost and I will make the change.

As opposed to people who scream bloody murder over a website changing a map? Then spam a forum over the same? Then bitch about the fact that their precious threads were merged? Then realize that they've finally found their cause in life and that cause it to take the freaking circles off the classic map?

Just wanted to make sure...

LOL, I am fully aware that I've been an insulting SOB who's spent far too much energy on this issue already. If somebody who hasn't been that exact same guy on the other side of the argument wants to point that out, I'll humbly shape my fingers into an "L" shape and place it before my forehead. However, if one of you wankers wants to call this kettle black, then consider those fingers shaped into a bird instead.
