Default Re: report from Dom2Minions.com

The Today Map numbers. Mostly this held up my predictions. Tiny, Small, Medium maps are covered by people who wish to manually create maps with artwork added. Large and Huge about the same. The maximum sized Epic maps are unlikely to ever see an artwork version. So the randomly generated TodayMaps fill the greatest need for those who want really REALLY big playing fields.

The 3 color styles; original 00-09, Parker 10-19, and Esko Halttunen 21-30; seem to hold up that Esko had the right idea. I will bow to it. I will leave his color set in place and consider playing with the other 2 abit. Maybe something halfway between mine and his.

side note. the Targa files (maps with no colors and just borders) which were meant as blank starting images for map builders doesnt seem to be getting much traffic. I might drop those
