Evan20k, your map forgot the second gotta catch them all, therefore I give it a 0/10

Anthus: Interesting tiles, especially for classic, although they would create some style clash, which is often not a good thing.
For the tiles and map design, 8/10, for the tiles being in classic, 5.5/10.

Evan: You've been GANNON-BANNED to the evil jar!

Anthus: Looks cool, but yes, there is some very severe style clash. Those custom tiles don't belong in classic.

Dragonite: The Tower of Dreams has some rather disorienting perspective, but besides that the map is great.

Evan20000 - At least 150 or more to see to be a Pokemon Master is my DESTINY!!!!!

Anthus - Not a fan of style-clashing. Not one bit.

Dragonite - Great layout overall, but why does a majority of the map follow a formula that there's always a set of trees on the middle of each screen? Regardless, I voted for this one.

I actually noticed a pattern in that when I was designing this map, I guess it's just a habit of mine when working with GB, but if I took away those trees the screens would be much more empty.

Very Good Map Dragonite! I like it when voting is an easy choice. Good layout.

I love that map Dragonite, I think it's some of the best work you have ever done. You are definitely most improved this year in my books. It gives me such a nostalgic feeling, reminding me so much of Link's Awakening (in a very good way), yet at the same time it is very original in design. Keep up the great work!

Amazing map, Evan! You blew the competition away! *Votes*

Edit: And by blew the competition away I mean I was too busy laughing to notice Dragonite's map composed entirely of rivers and bridges and Anthus's custom content tile showcase cave...

Okay now I should probably rate the serious contestants:

Anthus: The pits are black, the roof is black, THE ROOF IS PITS OH LORDY! Also your tiles really clash with the default classic ones.

Dragonite: It all looks the same. Why is there nothing creative here. Also you made a tile error on the bottom left corner, a palette error on the top right corner, and the land goes over the bridge near the tower. That said you've appealed perfectly to Pure's bridge-with-a-river-crossing-it fetish.

Why do you have to be so rude about it, Moosh? It seems like you've been incredibly negative the past week or two. And frankly, I (And a few others) don't like it. It's very disheartening to read comments like this, where you only point out the negative, and make fun of the person in question. I don't hate you or anything, but I have been seriously repulsed by your behavior.

Instead of "laughing" at him, why don't you try to help? Or maybe not comment at all?

Before this sparks into something else unrelated to the actual topic at hand, let's remember that this thread is about the current Map of the Month contest. If you want to keep up an argument, take it to PM, okay? Don't let it ruin this contest.

Carry on.

I voted for Dragonite because I for one, do have the GB bridge fetish. No joke. those palettes are flipping amazing and fits well in the areas.

Oh wow, that post was very poorly worded. I wasn't laughing at Dragonite's shot. I was laughing at Evan's. I do love me a good joke map now and then. I felt that as far as joke maps go, Evan's was better by joke standards than the competition was by normal standards. We just have an uninspired turnout this month in my opinion.

Just felt I should clarify my earlier comments. I didn't mean to come off as mocking the contestants.

I know, I realized that a few hours later. I'm sorry for what I said. :/

Anyway, I voted for Dragonite. Love the colors.
