Hello
I worked all winter long last year on a Quake level. I think it's okay, however most mappers are partial to their own work.
The level is different in that all monsters (160) are awakened at once and stalk the player (edit: after 3 minutes). Some people have put the level down because it's very complex; they told me they always have the feeling they're "lost".
It's also a bit crude because I used Qoole to make it (I never had the patience to learn the Worldcraft interface), but there is colored lighting and an intricate teleporter system that the monsters will use to find the player.
In this map, the idea is to kill all 160 of the baddies before a set time limit. If the time limit is passed and there's still a monster in the level somewhere then you're beamed out of the game and shown a taunt screen. Once they're all dead the intermission screen will show the player as being promoted to a new "rank", the skill level is increased by a notch and the game starts over. Of course the object of the game is to beat it in a record time.
Being aware of how little a maze-style map is liked there are maps in high resolution that show the player where he is. It's a bit hard at first but the level is actually quite easy to learn and very fun to play.
My question was, without posting it in a respected or well known place such as this site, are there other places it could possibly be published that are less picky about scenery?

This level is basically an expanded "Dimension of the Dim" (on Quaddicted), but with wormholes, taunt screens and time-limits. Same concept, though.
