Uhh hi, yea first of all there is already an insane map very similar to this one, second of all one picture isn't enough you would probably need more pictures to show the whole course, and lastly you should state how many jumps and checkpoints the map has so it is a bit easier to determine exactly what difficulty it is. Also im writing this in my bed so i baven't had the time to check out the map :p

I tried to take a picture of the whole map but the files wouldn't load I tried multiple times
Thanks for the pointers I didn't know I needed an exact amount of numbers

overall the build is very basic, and not too attractive. and there are many ship/boat themes already existing. as the map judges say, 'if your map is a theme that already exists, it must be way better than the original(s) to get accepted.' work on gloing up the map and resubmit. good luck!

joebro76 is correct. Cant you think of something, that to add, like maybe some more depth somewhere, and/or more detail to the course?

Hello Left4Bread_,

Thanks for submitting your map! I've come to inform you that this map will be rejected.

Points that influenced the decision:
- The theme is, like said before me, pretty common and getting close to being overused. Watch out with that.
- The build isn't too appealing to look at to be honest. The ship is very basic and has little to no detail which makes it look plain. The wave looks very odd and distracting as well as it looks like a curvy wall with light and dark blue stripes. Waves aren't vertical either. Next time, try making a build where you can incorporate more jumps on as well, so that you do not have a lot of floating jumps.
- The jumps are okay, but pretty repetitive. There indeed is some variety, but it goes in sections and because of that it gets a little boring at times. Try to have more variety spread out all over the course. Also, make sure the jumps aren't floating around like I mentioned before. This makes the course only looks even more messy and unattractive which you obviously want to avoid.
- The length is insane worthy, but in combination with the jumps I'd say it could possibly only be expert. The checkpoint placement does match insane however.

Thanks again for submitting, we'd love to see another map sometime soon, so don't hesitate on making and submitting another one. :)

Also, if you have any questions or concerns, just PM me here on the forums or on Discord.
