  1. Gonna start posting map ratings here, rating maps on how much I like them and how difficult I found them, on a scale of 0-10. Making this initial post for future reference to explain the scale.

     

    On the map rating scale:

    10 = All-time favorite, the map sticks with me and I find little to no fault with it

    9 = Amazing, a highly memorable map I love but it is missing a little something

    8 = Great, a standout map I really enjoy, with a few blemishes

    7 = Good, an enjoyable map well above average, but does have a clear flaw knocking it down or isn't the most memorable

    6 = Solid, a fun map that is flawed or doesn't push the envelope

    5 = Average, the map has a mix of good things and bad things, but I'm still enjoying it

    4 = Mediocre/Subpar, the map's flaws are too much or it's overly banal, deterring a good time

    3 = Poor, the map is outright bad or boring, with a redeeming factor or two

    2 = Awful, the map is actively unpleasant to play or incredibly insubstantial, but at least it's not the worst thing

    1 = Irredeemable, nothing good at all I can say about the map

    0 = D!ZONE

     

    On the difficulty scale:

    0 = Virtually impossible to die

    1 = Can run through the map braindead

    2 = Still very easy, but it'll invoke some brain activity

    3 = Should have a 100% clear rate, but I can die if I'm overly reckless or sloppy

    4 = Will often clear first try blind, but death is a real possibility

    5 = Clearing first try is tough, and I can die even after knowing the map well

    6 = Won't clear first try without exceptional play or luck, and will likely take several attempts to single segment

    7 = First try clear is out of the question, will require an hour+ of attempts to beat saveless

    8 = Very difficult, this map will leave me stuck for multiple hours but is still very much within my abilities

    9 = Trying to beat this saveless will take up much of the day for me

    10 = About the limit of my skill, I can beat it saveless but will take a ton of grinding

    Anything over 10 = I have to use saves, the higher the number the more I have to savescum

     

    Also a note about the difficulty rating, frontloaded difficulty will be weighed a lot less. Like if a map has a hot start that will kill me 80% of the time, but I'm guaranteed to breeze through the rest of the map if I survive the first minute, I won't rate its difficulty more than a 4 or even 3 despite it technically requiring many attempts, as it ultimately requires little more time investment. It will be especially relevant when I play with fast monsters, where hot starts are often disproportionately lethal but then the rest of the map can end up lacking any teeth.
