'Puzzle' Prefix for Mini-Game Maps

I have noticed that a lot of people have been making PUZZLE maps so my suggestion is to add the Puzzle prefix to the mini-game maps section.

Good idea. I don't see why not.

While we're on the topic of Prefixes. We need some in the Featured Maps section.

I.e:
Competitive
Minigame
Infection
Etc..

One may be able to predict my response to this before I provide it: I say it's a good idea.

I feel there have been plenty enough puzzle maps to warrent their own prefix and many people (such as myself) actively try to hunt for them. A puzzle map can have as much a crazy name as any other map in the mini game section and I only usually find any if they mention puzzle in the name. I myself always create a fake [Puzzle] prefix whenever I release one.

I see alot of other people also using these fake prefixes, so I think it would be nice if we could actually have a real [Puzzle] prefix to better identify the maps. That way puzzle-lovers like myself can more readily find them, and puzzle-haters can more readily avoid them :)

In fact there are more puzzle map makers and regular doses of puzzle maps than you'd probably think. While it's a gross generalisation for someone such as myself - you could even include obstacle courses, maze maps and jumping maps into that same prefix.

I also find that sometimes these types of map are placed in casual instead of mini-game - By having a prefix in Mini-game we're showing where they belong. Then there will hopefully only be one section that houses them.

I'm pretty confident that such a move would only strengthen that section of ForgeHub, I can't see how it could have a negative impact.

The first ever puzzle map that you play in Forge.

I thought you denied the sub forum, but wanted the prefix?

I originally presumed when TexturedSun locked the former thread he'd said that both had been denied, that was not the case.

I think this is a good idea. Why not have an Infection prefix too, because if half of the mini game maps posted in a month are Puzzle maps, the other half are based on Infection gametypes. Lots of Mini game maps are still Infection maps (albeit unusual Infection maps)


A good sig is on the way! *Opens MS paint*

Yeah, I know, but one for in mini-games. You can't put Infection maps like Jenga and Trash Man in Casual Games. they're Mini Games. Why not have a prefix?
