All Along the Watch Tower by the great Phedippides is a flawlessly constructed action map with a challenge at every turn, jump, or slide. The gold and enemy placement will bring a fun and tough challenge, not even mentioning the wonderful gameplay and aesthetics. Phedi is defiantly bringing his best into this absolutely perfect map. — eternal_moonlight

It played well.

I didn't like the aesthetics.

dayum.

that's a sexy map.
it provides a consistent feel of infiltration of an enemy base; nay, you're simply getting past the watchtower. This map is unique because it felt like playing N at night. XD
This looks absolutely epic.
5aved, and thx for featuring this.

nice map

i like the fact that you need to dodge the one way glitch with the mine right beneath it.
How many arguments would there be without me? Not as many. I still hate ganteka's comment. It's bullshit really, I think I know what I'm talking about. I can't find many maps that I've reviewed. Not very many actually.

My first review: http://www.nmaps.net/136744 [nmaps.net]
One of my later ones: http://www.nmaps.net/99385 [nmaps.net]

I can't find many. Anyway, since I've been IP banned from the forums the third time, are there any free spots?

ok ay meta for

thnx gloomp

Are you kidding me?
<3 Gloomp

HOLY CRAP!

MALEPWN! HE RETURNETH!

(also, I agree with paws on the metaphor thing, but not the gloomp stuff.)

OH FUCK YOU TOO

MY CRYING FACE COULD STRETCH TO THE MOON ITS MOUTH IS SO LONG

THAT IS YOU FAULT ORRIGAMIALUGATER
moar metafors
would be some metaphors. And it really only needs one.

Seriously guys, this is definitely not as bad as some of gloomp's reviews.
Try not to start another, especially not on a featured map.
i leave for a couple days and tons of pointless bullshit shows up on the featured map comments without me?

NUMA, i'm proud of you.

i know

i'm still not sure why
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooob

Incidentally, the lone decent scene in Land of the Lost was watchable only because this song was on in the background.

Hey;

someone ban ampburner before he spouts off about Hendrix any more. And, eternal_moonlight, enjoy your reviewer position!

Great map.

launchpad: good.
oneways: cool.
mines: awesome.
rocket: GIVE ME A ROCKET U NOOB!!
gauss: I want a rocket!
Tiles: works good with the objects.
normal door: WTF?O.o -.-
Don't just throw together something about great aesthetics and fun gameplay then call it a day. Highlight what makes the map unique and interesting, don't just blurb it like a cheap crime novel.

I'm not a big fan of the map, either. Phedi's done better. 3/5

Sorry

Sorry if I tried to make this look like the best map ever. (I hope) It won't happen again.
So what. I'd like to see any of you lot do better. Plus, my reviews were bad at first, and they grew better over time. Give the lad time. It's about the map, isn't it? So, it'd be nice to have a good review, which it wasn't, but in the end it's the map. This is a map that uses the tileset impeccably, and it's a cracking song too.

In other words, fuck you ganteka and teraza. You're both arrogant pricks.
if I ever had a map featured I could probably care less what the review said, as I would be flattered by the feature either way. And considering it's on the home page I wouldn't be worried about getting some people to play it. However, I understand what you're saying, but then the review should really only matter that much to the author. I just personally don't think it's worth such a fuss. Review seemed fine to me. (sry for late response)

I wish

more highscorers would try this map. Demo on nreality.
But I love thismap.

Amen brother.

I thought it was nice to see a review that wasn't so full of itself for a change.

PS:

Bob Dylan's version is ghastly too.
Paul Weller's don't. Fuckin puff.

It's

the Pheiddipisodium thingy! :)
4aved.
Great map; the review could've added something more to explain what makes this map special compared to other maps.

Great review!

Horrible map.

shush ethel

.. review is review, map is map, chill is chill.

review is awful

dont make such big sweeping claims such as "EVERYTHING IS PERFECT"
Loved it back then too.
to tell me a Pheidi map is going to be great. Just look that thumb! Awesome.
