I've never heard of this convention, does anyone else know if it is standard MLG practice.
I didn't notice it on MLG Amplified (pretty definitively MLG sanctioned) but then again I wasn't looking.

It also prevents further lag, when lag can cause the object to partially merge with geometry.

Maps have to work for GB, and MLG.

I've decided that, unless the Staff themselves come up with a definition of what MLG maps have to be/cannot be then I will leave it open to interpretation.
This is not just because its easier (which it is) but because this thread is supposed to work like a subforum. There are certain rules, set out by the FH staff, about what defines a competitive map, a casual map etc. and so this thread will enforce no rules beyond what the staff state themselves.

Whilst this may be disagreeable to some, this thread is not supposed to undermine the staff in any way, nor is it meant to establish a "gold standard of MLG", it is purely a reference guide to help people find maps that are intended for MLG.

I do reserve the right to omit any maps that fall way outside what I (and others) consider to be MLG standards. I know what I said about validity of opinions, but this is mah thread, so thats how it goes unless anyone comes up with a better solution or the staff define MLG themselves.

There was an MLG weapon guide here on this site that clearly states everything you need to know about weapons. There are quite a few rules for MLG maps that you would need to meet to make a truly MLG map from not allowing ghosts and sentinel beams all the way to making sniper and rockets a drop spawn, and placing weapon holders on movable objects.

I heard of the sniper and rocket respawn in this quote, if wondering

System link is only for tournaments.
And of course they have things such as Gamebattles and just plain old matchmaking.

And Pegasi, technically one could say you're violating MLG copyright by setting your own limits for their gametypes.

I haven't actually thanked you guys for taking an interest and trying to help me improve this thread, so thank you. It is appreciated, and if more people take this thread as seriously then its usefulness factor will increase rapidly
Cheers guys.
