As of this time I'm now accepting harder maps (tier 3-6) for the tougher surf server. These maps can be any we've had in the past or new maps. The important thing to note is I'm not after linear maps - but stage linear is accepted. Please post them below in this thread. As it stands the current changes for the harder server will be - Must have all the appropriate achievements once the achievement system launches to get access to the harder server (these will be map-completion achievements for the most common maps). The maps on the harder surf server will last for an hour as opposed to 30 minutes. Further changes are likely to happen, but those are the two main ones for now.

I wish I had my maps from when I played CS:S surf, this would be a lot easier. Will get around to doing my research but right now I can say that I've played nearly all of Ender's recommendations and can vouch for their quality.
A large amount of Ender's maps belong on the Easy server.

The easier sever is for pretty much basic maps that teach players to develop surf mechanics while yes some of the maps I choose are easy they don't fit within that criteria per say . Also harder server is T3+
Current maps on the hard server: Pandemonium, Aether, Fruits2, Sandman, Spacejam, Milky Way, Canisius, Unicorn How many more are people wanting to see before it goes live?
I'd love to see the server. I especially am liking the current map pool! surf_elysium (t5) is a suggestion.
More maps will be added over time however there's usually some extra overhead to processing these maps to be compatible. I'm looking for 10-15 maps to be available at launch. Keep in mind however that the harder server maps are for 1 hour, as opposed to 30 minutes for the easier server.
