Though I guess people mostly voted for Plumbers because of its hentai back story. :D Don't agree on the third place, though. Two and three should be ARWOP and Moldy. Anyway, good to see every map got at least some votes. Now onto 2010 aka Go Map everyone! Well-deserved. Though I guess people mostly voted for Plumbers because of its hentai back story. :D

Even though I think Roman is a better experience than either of those overall, on a .bsp per .bsp basis, those are the two best maps of the year, there's no question. As previous commentators have expressed, it's difficult to decide, and the releases are not always directly comparable. I will say, however, that I don't see why Than's map (bless him) is #1; hats off to the unique attempt but I don't see how Lower Forecourt isn't just as unique and just as well-executed. lol RickyT23 you’re about to catch up to me

Not as fashionable as other releases; but it's just so far out of the box, slick, and thoroughly enjoyable. My pack of the year. Lower Forecourt and Mouldy Tower are even more amazing really, but as mindless fun-ability goes, they don't quite succeed.

I played a ton of castle/gothic/ruined type of maps and decided to check a base map out for a change, and this was one of them. It was simply brilliant, I liked the style, pacing and design. 'Moldy Tower' would come 2nd place. 'Cogula Mappack 3' in 3rd, kinda mix bag there. I liked Ricky's map. ‘Plumbers Don’t Wear Ties’ was a map that stood out for me.

Ok, maybe a little more, but its focus still lies on the maps and that's what counts. I regarded the E1M3RQ map more as a beta version rather than a proper release, so you could argue this is a more appropriate reason for not including it in the poll. Then again, this also applies to the Arcanum Demo... spy: <3 RMQ is only as much (or little) a mod as other maps that come with additonal content.

I don't really see the difference. Anyway, I don't care enough to continue the discussion.

You know that. Now back to the issue: Arwop etc are maps that come with partial mods, they do not aim to redo a lot but add some things. Remake Quake aims to be a all new, all different mod. I know it is a touchy subject. If someone knows a better way to distinguish between "maps" and "mods" please raise your voice. Quaddicted is a site that focuses on singleplayer maps. You know that.
