I just wondered, what do you like best. Did you forget about that making maps is just for playing in them afterward, and you just map or not?
I think that I forgot all about Hl1, now I just map for it's fun.

I play more than I map these days, if you dont play a game then how are you supposed to make maps for it?
There's no 100% mapper. What's the point of mapping if you don't play it?I totally agree, but sometimes on forums (not that much on THWL's), I test maps from people who obviously does not play the game (CS maps with strange runtimes, dozens of strange "traps" triggers in a CS map, dust remakes with just 3 extra crates and 1 extra hole/path, etc), that's why sometimes I really wonder... while I see in addition on forums people talking about mapping (announcing "tutorials" they wrote (how to do a breakable window), giving advices etc) who obviously never mapped (talking very seriously, with technical words, tips picked straight from some mapping website, but with some mistakes, and the only problem is that finally doesn't help at all the guy who is requesting some help)... strange world all the same isn't it?
