Is taking advantage of NUMA's downtime a good idea?

Yes, if it means more people will see it.

Yes, just for the self pleasing of knowing you posted the first map.

No, with timezones and things affecting me, it's impossible.

No, posting a map is posting a map. The downtime is irrelevant.

As most of us know, NUMA was down for awhile, but it's back up. While it was down, I was wondering, would it be a good idea to take advantage of this downtime, to make a / map / s so that I would be able to upload them right as soon as NUMA was up again? I figured that by getting the first map posted on NUMA after the downtime would lead to a little more publicity, and that could be good.

But I personally decided against it, as I didn't feel like mapping in the first place, and using a minor dilemma on NUMA as my inspiration would be nonsense.
What do you think?

I made a map during the downtime, but I didn't post it because I figured that right after it ended everyone would post what they made during the downtime and maps would get pushed off of the hot maps page faster than usual.

I made a couple maps, and then took advantage of the downtime to have some people on IRC playtest them. I haven't submitted anything yet though.

I absolutely cannot map on command--sometimes I just feel like it, and make fifteen maps in an evening. This summer, though, I made around five maps total. So that was my problem.

There has to be a better reason than to get me mapping.

I'm not even sure I understand what you're getting at. I picked the last option regardless.

Yes,I thought that when Numa is down it'll be good to make maps and post them right after Numa is opened.But as OneSevenNine said I figured out that it'll be a bad idea to post maps,because that map(s) would get pushed off from hotmaps page as "179" said.
