This might sound harsh, but this totally does NOT deserve a 10. I mean....a 10?? What's up with that? My maps, I hate to brag, are better than this, and these are the Homeslice maps, the ones that suck!! They're better than this!!
EDIT: We who give 0 know NOTHING about maps? That should be the other way around. See, you don't know what a good map is. Try something from guys like DavidM or Plutonic or Tonnberry or even the new guy, L.J. Paranoid, if you wanna see something GOOD!

What a bunch of children - this map has it's flaws, and I don't enjoy it very much (that stupid hut on stilts is wayyy too hard to get to, and the bots ignore it) and you do get hung up alot of places. It seems to be an exercise in creative brush work. Or, a robotussin trip. Also the techno track sux0rs. But seriously, a 0? Grow up.

I have to say that I kind of like this map. Sure, it's cramped as hell in places, it has loads of unused areas, and the architecture is not something to gape upon, but hey I like the hues, I like somewhat out-of-order weapon placement, I like the fragfest and I like the atmosphere. And don't complain about lighting having no apparent sources; this is a magic temple... :P

Total trash, 1/10 for comedy value
oh wait... I thought the comment thing was for rating the review. Let me now rate the map: Total trash, 1/10 for comedy value
--------------------------- this map shouldnt be a 10, but less than 4 is just ridiculus. ur saying its one of the worst maps in existance, when its mediocare at lowest. --------------------------- No, this map is total cr4p. Anyone who can't see that is blind. Stupid layout which is way too tight. 0 architecture. Horrible textures, and the lighting is either zone lighting, or greenings.

Reveiw by SATYRKARMA
Design: 8/10 >>>This arena is very intricate. I'm not exactly sure what this place is supposed to represent or why anyone would even build a build like this, but it does make for some interesting gameplay. It seems to me as if the author intended to try everything while building it.
Awe: 6/10 >>>Intricate work. But nothing fancy to me.
Difficulty: 4/10 >>>I found it rather average. I had no problems wasting bots. Not that hard.
Overall: 6/10 >>>Good map but not great. The music is good but I think it clashes with the environment unless someone tells me a really good story to back this one up.

When this map first was released I really enjoyed it probably becasue it was new at that time,but now I just don't like this map at all. Bots: Go most places and pickup most items. Lights: There are white lights on the walls and yet the rooms are still that hideous blue-green color. These disco maps just don't impress me anymore. Architexture: Good Layout: It just kind of goes here and there. Flow suffers because you can't easily get from one spot to another. Camping spots: That hut on stilts. Good place to camp if you are playing Lms against bots. It seems that there are only certain map layouts that work well in any first person shooter. Just look at all the crap that's already been released for UT2003.

WHATS GOOD: - Fun factor - Colored highlights from the lights - Item placement - Challenge
WHATS BAD: - Architecture (kinda basic sometimes) - At many points the map's lights seem to be unified, and not in a good way. It gives that hallway and some of the rest of the map a monotonous feel (correct usage of that word?).
SUMMARY: Very fun map, but not quite a 10.

imo, this was never worth a 10, but certainly does NOT deserve a pure ZERO - c'mon u mappers, look closer: there was a bit of imagination applied here - that's gotta count for something (+1) there's differing stuff in it, lots (+1) it had good FR on-line (+1). By the collective reckonings here (if this map really *deserves* a ZERO) most ut maps published prior to fall 2000 really deserve ZERO or negative number ratings :P As a UT-noob back then I remember some crazy on-line matches on packed servers playing in THIS map, and nobody cared too damn much about the colors or lighting - just the fragging (+1) i'll toss in an un-pure 4 because a pure ZERO is just not fair... cheers

Nearly perfect, but it loses a point because the author made a stupid oversight when it came to the lighting. The lighting is great, mind you, but it would be even better if the lights used the type LT_TexturePaletteLoop with a skin loaded with as many conflicting colors as possible.

its a damn classic, and though the playability sucks, the fun i have had reading this comments, and realising that this is going on for years made me give this map a 10.

Overall this map is quite a considerable abomination. The lighting, while quite hideous, resembles that of some junky on an acid trip. The texturing is far too bland, and the level architecture is, well, repulsive. I give this map a 0.5 simply because it worked. This truely is not worthy of any bandwidth usage or hard-disk space.

Outside of a little bit of decent architechture in places, this level is pretty bad. Gets a 3 from me mainly because it works and includes a custom music track.
The biggest problem is that it's just so gaudy and garish with the "gay disco lighting" and bizarre texture choices.
I know this is a joke review, but maybe it's time to find another map to rip on? ;)
