Quenched Maps

How long is it usually before they're put up for play?
This batch seems to be taking a while...

I'm going to guess that it won't be done until lack gets back from Croatia.

i doubt that the dudes in Q&A could answer this better than the boys in the foundry... or, if paradice knew any of the map dudes, he could just PM them...-0

it usually takes time, but since now lack has said that theyll be throwing up the maps 1 by 1 as they finish, i too was wondering why not on a few of these that have been waiting, will be nice when we get 1 new map every few weeks, instead of big bundles every few months.

If you visit the foundry you'll find that they are working on a new XML checker and then will put up the maps. Or summat like that

xml checker needs to be implemented so there aren't a bunch of mess-ups in gameplay before this new batch comes out

all I know is that if Lack is going to do one map per day, that'd be quite stupid.

Did Iceland set a record for number of days quenched before uploaded?

Bloody hell...Luxembourg was quenched nearly two months ago...I hope it doesn't take another month to go live because that wouldn't make sense!

I would also like the now 2-3 month old maps to lose the NEW tag since they aren't new anymore. ;)

Nice to see Iceland up finally though.

I agree. It would be less confusing about what is new this time around.
I hope it doesn't take too long. I'd like to get an Egypt Quadtych tournie started. :)

that's what I'm seeing also. Looks like it's hard to type in comments where to fort, if you don't have those keys on your keyboard ! I'm sure people will visit the thread and moan and complain, but they'll just have to get over it!

i'm thinking the strategy behind this uploading one new map at a time is so that the server doesn't get overloaded with new game creation.

Imagine what would happen if the entire load of this batch were uploaded at once. ;)

On the other hand, imagine the riots that will ensue if I don't get to play High Seas and Lower Egypt in the next few days :twisted:

I'm pressing F5 but nothing happens! :p

If they have to follow a pattern I think they should base it on the date when the map was quenched. I'd like to see a new map introduced tomorrow.

It is all changed Ruben. Only Iceland is NEW now, and it has been announced on the HOME page under Headlines
