Great work by Sajt, and good to read some new reviews.
One point: as MadFox mentioned on Func_ maybe you´re being a little bit too subjective, rating the maps more regarding built quality and detail.
For example Shoradar: rated “crap”, IMO it´s an ok oldskool map, not very good looking and sure annoying, but very challenging to play; I like that.
It´d be nice to have 2nd opinions on the reviews rather than editing the ones already there.

Sure, just go ahead and submit a new one. :)
(You are right, Crap is too low for it. I’m such a bitter person these days. :\ )
In discussion with Madfox I noticed that the descriptions are very subjective indeed. I’ll try to change that a bit. It’s hard to please when it’s up to my choice how I do it and there is basically no feedback.

“Sure, just go ahead and submit a new one.”
I did, but I still see the old description ?!

“It will be save in a queue folder waiting to be added. I will try to update the site as often as possible, at least weekly.” ;)

Yeah, careful with “crap”. It’s a thin line between “poor” and “crap” sometimes, but I think the latter rating should only apply if the map is really bad in several aspects – in a big-box-with-200-shamblers-kind of way.
I usually try to be a bit more forgiving if the map shows promise and follows some (any) recognizable theme. Most 1996-98 maps are just average at best, however some are quite nice even if they don’t match today’s (or let’s say 2000+) standards.
