Linc , can we void tonight's challenge because a few of us are having issues with the maps because directions weren't given on how to download them.

If it's that difficult for you and you're getting this upset about it, maybe you should.
As I was going to do before, I want to apologize to everyone, especially @oni_dels , for going off on here on the forums. With this being the first time having to upload these kinds of maps, it was confusing and I was getting frustrated. Did I have to upload them through my computer files or do I upload them through the Steam website? I read the read-me but it only showed me the end result. Being told multiple times to read the read-me only frustrated me more. When @Linc finally said what file it was under, it became easier and I was finally able to download the maps. Again, I apologize for my outburst and I look forward to next Wednesday.

my advice is to ask if you don't know. going on a rant like that doesn't help you or anyone else in any way. the readme file could have been explained a bit better but you have to realize that a lot of us have been pc gaming for a long time. so knowing where the folders is comes natural because we know where the games are installed. like I said, if you don't know...ask.
Karma has enabled map downloads from the server meaning if the map rotation comes to a map you don't have, it will download it. It is certainly not as fast as preloading the maps but at least it doesn't stop you all together. We're not going to create an auto loading zip or anything like that as install directories vary.
We are planning on doing more custom maps in coming weeks. I'll see about a more specific walk through to load those when the time comes.

IS ONLY GAME
Due to the massive confusion and butthurtery, I'm changing the requirement from 5 to 3 custom maps played tonight.
But I had a blast
Good Times as always. Was fun to play some maps we haven't played in a long time.
@cola can't live with the fact that he just killed me, he drinks away the pain.
@GnomeQueen is fine with killing me and just happy that there is no blood on her fancy pants.
I mean, obviously, except that isn't me.
D: I could have sworn it said I was killed by you when I took that screen. Well .. mystery pants demo.

@Church4252 I'll be sure to do that next time, unless @BobbyDigi fixed the auto-loader.

Okay, that just looks creepy and evil as fuck.
Sorry I missed it tonight Was driving my son's girlfriend home and it's about a 2.5 hour round trip.
Is it his girlfriend in Canada he met at camp so no one knows her, but is totally a model?
