Yeah, that's what I think. I think the community interest has only shifted slightly now in preference of competitive maps. It doesn't mean the end of minigames, because like I said, there was a time when it was all about minigames and competitive was the one in a slump.

Why is this annoying? There is evidently a feeling that there are no more minigame styled maps when that's not true. People who have made or know about these maps, are now letting you guys know that they exist... and instead of being happy ("OMG there is more to minigames than what TDF made 5 months ago!") you're upset about it? That makes no sense.

Did I happen to mention I have created the new generation of minigaming? Join my party and find out how!

Halo 3 still has over 200,000 users almost on at all times, so it won't be going away in a long time, I want halo wars to come with a map editor, then we can truly enjoy that!

I already know what I will make

Somebody PLEASE make a RISK BOARDGAME gametype. I made one and it is in my file share, but I am not a very good forger.

Someone with good interlocking abilities could make a kickbutt map of the earth on Foundry for some awesome Territories gametypes!

recently me and jakattak418 have been trying to come up with min-games. 1 i thought of was pong. i started building switches to work the paddel but the paddel wouldn't spawn fast enough. so we went back and (i am still working on it so no 1 steal it cause' i will know if you do!) tried brainstorming. we had 2 more ideas that we were going to start working on. then i got RRoD. and its 3rd degre ring. witch allows me to work for about 2min but then the screen frezes. so my forging status is gone to the wayside. and i was working on a map that was epic. and now that i have it i can't do forge. witch is horrible. so in summery, i have been working on mini-games and i read that others have too. so there is hope for mini-games!

oh oh and i just thought of a great idea sorry to double post BUT
does anyone here remember the rpg games on starcraft where you chose your model then went on to build a base or complete a mission or kill people?
someone could try making one of those but instead of choosing your person you could choose your weapon etc...
