Valve I believe you should have communicated your intent to redistribute
the maps for the next Operation more clearly. I was under the impression
opportunity was present when it wasn't, and I worked tremendously hard at a
chance to get my map into the next Operation when there was never really a
chance to begin with.

Do you know what it is like to try and serve Valve? It feels like a pipe
dream, like I'm shooting for something that is so improbable I contemplate
sometimes if I truly am a rational being. I spent weeks cramming for
something that had no clear deadline and wasn't even a real opportunity, at
the end of it all I just feel duped. Not only did my map not make it into
the Operation, there was never a chance it was going to happen, and Valve
didn't even leave a comment on the workshop page. Over 8 months of hard
work that did nothing but fall on deaf ears.

I've spent thousands of hours the past 11 years teaching people how to use
your software, how to make maps, how to solve problems. I do it for free, I
do it because I believe map making is an art form of its own and I want to
help it grow, and I do it because I love it.

It would have made my day even if you told me my map wasn't any good.

Sincerely,

Michael "zastels" Mayea.
