Hello, everyone! I have been working on this map for a while now, almost 2 months on and off. It's a short map (if you know what you're doing, like I do), and it is very fun. I have had several testers already, and they all say it was a great map.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The map is mainly based around reverse-psychology, and that was a very fun thing to try and create. After each "Trial", you collect blocks of wool, that you must finish a monument at the end with. It's a simple map, that could possibly confuse even an advanced Minecrafter.

A little to easy with the challenges, and you should only have one piece of wool in each chest, to make sure that people dont just use one type. Also the place where you give players ladders and dirt. Dont do it, becuase many people are going to use it as a shortcut :) But its nice enough with the piston and redstone effects :P

The several pieces of wool are so if they die, they can get them again. The ladders and dirt are for people who hate parkour. And if they use only one type of wool for the monument, then they are ruining it for themselves. That's fine with me :D

Thanks for the feedback!

It was meant to be sandy... think of the toilet as an entrance underground. Thanks for the feedback, and I will most likely add more, but I want to see more people's reviews first.

I played through the map, and it was kinda meh. I do like the idea of the CTM Adventure-style map (see my sig :)), but it felt like the challenges weren't really that substantial. Also, I tried the parkour one, but I ended up just using the dirt.

If you do another, make the challenges actually substantial (take longer than 10 seconds) and challenging. But please do not just make the entire thing one big parkour course. That's just boring and tedious.

Did you play the map?

I totally agree with you that the tests were short and easy, but how is the whole map, in any way, a parkour course? There is one parkour section there, that you decided to cheat on.

I might make an extension for this one, but I probably won't make a whole new map.

Yes, I did play through the whole map. I never said your current map was a parkour course, just to not fall into that trap on your next map.

A parkour section or 2 is ok (even though I personally don't like parkour), but too much becomes boring and tedious (although I think that Assassin's Creep did a good job as a parkour map mainly due to the scenery, etc).

Okay, sorry, it appeared to me as you came off as rude :D
