Some of these maps were pretty fun, I guess. A few authors stood out, but I just didn't enjoy many of these.

Fair enough, I was an idiot. A young awkward teenager who tried to act mature yet failed so badly.

I know I only played a small part in the wider pack but I can definitely say I poured everything I could into it. I submitted some of my best maps to MoA and am so glad that they will be solidified in history.

I am sorry to those who I royally pissed off back in the day, and also to those who I left without much more than a goodbye. I've done a lot of growing up since my prolonged stay on NUMA, the forums, and IRC which I feel is a result of coming through University, attaining some important leadership positions and finally struggling through different aspects of the real life (and not just an online persona's daily struggles). The Metanet community gave me a strong spirit of creativity, an appreciation of the world outside my little town in New Zealand, and finally an understanding of the basics in human interaction which I had seemingly ignored in the real world during my teenage years. Thank you to everybody who enjoyed, suffered, or hated my company in the community between 2008 and late-2010/early-2011, I had a great time with you all and do miss the chatting, gaming, and mischief that we used to get up to.

Thank you to flag, sidke, ChaoStar, KlanKaos, gloomp, PALEMOON, southpaw, Riobe, Ardee (Randomdigits), UniverseZero, Pheidi, Leaff, Kool-aid, karmapolice, GTM (Matt), fbf (fireburnsfree), kablizzy, Dave, L_V, and Erik-Player. And also a really big thank you to Destiny, ChrisE, Life247, squibbles, orange, and romaniac who I feel I really got to know during my time. There are even more people I know I have forgotten to thank (so if I missed your name I am very sorry) which truly goes to show how impressive this community really is and has been.

Until next time I swing by I hope you all are having the most wonderful days/nights and I wish you the best for the impending year.

With love,
Inspired

This pack... oh man, the memories.

I submitted 87 maps, most of them pretty shitty, and only 10 of them got accepted. Most of those were still pretty shitty.

I was with this pack very soon after I began mapping (about 6 months after), which can show you how desperate CS was to have people get in on this project, haha. It was very fun for me, though, and I'm proud of the 5% of the end product that I make up.

I met a lot of people through those years when I was a part of Memoirs. Flag, gloomp, PALEMOON, the long-gone Rule, sunset, and furry, among many others. It essentially helped launch me into the community, and being part of a group of mappers helped build my mapping style and ability. The harsh judging helped me temper my maps into the best thing I could make, which at the time looked pretty good to me.

All in all, Memoirs is probably the thing that I am most proud of being a part of during my time at Metanet. Thank you guys, really. Thank you.

I wanted to have some nice essay like everybody else in this thread, but I couldn't find the words. I guess MoA has really just shown me how fucking long it's been here at metanet. Time passes fast, man.

I have the same feeling :/ But I quess I was never on the same wave as the mapping community, as far as map judging and scoring goes.
Also i guess the thing means exponentially more to the people actually involved...

But I still like Chrise maps.

Regardless, I gave about 20 of the 500 accepted MOA maps to Mare and Raigan for consideration for 2.0 userlevels inclusion. This project was a valuable resource so thanks to all involved.

Here were my MOA candidates for 2.0 including notes and "?" for ones I was less certain about.
You'll probably see most of these in 2.0 user columns. A very special thanks to the authors of these maps.

http://moa.droni.es/map/1538 funky as hell, great for highscoring routes
http://moa.droni.es/map/1521 Quite good, but could do with some minor aesthetic tweaks (doors near the end.. don't be afraid to make some modifications where you see fit!)

I feel rather proud to have two of my maps suggested! I prefer the way I placed the gold, simple and to the point. I remember attempting spirals and other pretty patterns but they didn't really fit well with the tiles. Here's an edited version with the drone in front of the gold:


Here's a revision, changed gold, added a couple of aesthetically pleasing objects.

It's nice to see this finally finished.

Cheers, everyone.


Edit: I had all the logs of all the hilarious arguments, but I can't seem to find where I put them on my external.

Man, it's been so long... How ignorant we were back then, and how much has changed since...
I'll be playing these just for the memories.

Good work all around. Some incredible maps, some decent maps, and some absolutely terrible maps. I attempted to organize the pack by difficulty, and if you'd like to see that, click here. Comments are in a spoiler since this pack has 500 fucking maps.
Here are all my comments. They are sorted aphebetically by map name.
