    CTF Map Submission
    A few years ago, a friend and I were fascinated with the idea of creating CTF maps. We each collaborated to come up with ideas, build them, etc. That friend, nathanle2002, came up with the concept for this map, eventually quitting and leaving me behind with the concept still up in the air. Over the years I kept coming back to the map, trying to decide what to add or edit. Originally the map was going to be called "Tiki Palms," however, it did not quite seem fitting enough (hence the reason the map's name according to the information given on the server is "Tiki Palms"). I finally decided that this is the finish, that this is what I have been working on for so long. This is the final product. I know some of you may be displeased with my work, but I hope many of you will find it pleasing.

    I'll check it out as soon as I'm unbanned. From what I can see from the pictures, this map looks pretty good.

    I was helping you fix some of the minor flaws. This map reminds me of islands because the jungle wood and tropical trees. Very nice aesthetically and pretty good for gameplay +1.

    Looks good for now, but the bridges may be a problem for engi or necro.

    This looks really cool.
    I think that there's a wide enough variety of paths that there would have to be a fair amount of engineers to actually block them. I do think, now that I've looked at it again, that the bridges between the side islands can be widened by a couple more blocks to avoid getting completely blocked off.

    Also, restriction blocks in some travel areas could be used if necessary.

    This map looks pretty well thought out. I'm going to have to get into the map later and check the travel time between spawn and the opposite team's flag room, the travel time looks long from the screenshots.

    There's a sponge at spawn which takes you to mid, from there it would take maybe 25 seconds I'm guessing.

    There is also another sponge which deducts about another 10 seconds. However, I could add a few more sponges if necessary.

    I'll make sure to update the map with fixes if and when the server is unblocked.

    Okay. I got onto the map and ran around for a bit.

    The overhead view of the map in the screenshot looked great. But, from ground level, it's kind of hard to tell what direction I need to go because there's a lot going on.

    I think you can actually join some of the islands together and make them larger islands. I was on the map with b0squet, and he had the idea of making a giant oval-shaped island surrounding the middle island, and I thought that sounded like a neat idea.

    Either that, or join the three floating islands on each side to make one longer strip on each side.

    It's kind of cramped/cluttery looking from ground level.

    I'd be willing to help you guys as soon as I'm out of school for the summer.

    Joining the islands on either side of the middle island seems like the best idea, in my opinion. I'll work on it as soon as possible, and just let me know when you'd like to help. Thanks for the feedback!

    EDIT:
    As promised, the map has been edited with various changes. The images have been updated.

    Also, all of the bridges are now engi-proofed and now have block 97 under them.
