I think what nargague is getting at, is that you intentionally update it on such a short time scale to keep it on the front page.

-ra : Repick Anytime Mode - You can repick a new hero at anytime. When you repick a new hero, the items carried by your current hero will be dropped
-Normal Mode : To win the game, firstly, you have to enter the circle of power located at enemy base. By doing so, you can disable the shield of the enemy's main building and also open the central gate which connects both base together. Then, destroy the enemy's main building. Finally, kill all enemy heroes to win the game.
Some features of this map:
- Your base and enemy base are just beside each other. There are 4 roads that linked these 2 bases together (3 main roads + shortcut: the gate between these 2 bases). To open the gate, your hero has to enter the circle of power located at enemy base.
- Most of the units / buildings inside your base are shops. Those shops will become vulnerable when one of the towers in your base was destroyed.
- Some items can be found from neutral creeps after killing them or at casino (Gamble for luck) or at Supply Aircrafts (birds in the sky) and most of these items cannot be found in any other shops. If you are lucky, you can purchase items at battlefield too.
- There are 3 hidden merchants inside jungle who sell some rare but powerful items.
- Kill the Neutral Creep GOD (Like Roshan, has the ability to teleport himself automatically when attacked) to earn extra gold, lumbers and special items.
- In Normal Mode, when your Command Center / Dark Portal was destroyed, the abandoned heroes inside your base will be revived to protect your base.
- Traitor (Anyone who killed ally heroes) will lose all gold, lumbers and items.
- You may hire some neutral creeps at Hidden Waygates.
- You can hire workers to repair your ally towers. Of course it will be disabled in some modes.
- Abandoned Gold Mine (located at South West) generate extra 40 gold per 20 seconds (80 gold in Quick Mode) for each player in the controlling team. Destroy this building to gain control.
- You can control the Neutral Tower (located at North East, high attack damage) by stepping onto the circle of power nearby. You will lose control of it if you leave the circle.
- When your hero is dead, click Command Center / Dark Portal for instant reviving.
- There are a lot of shortcuts and hiding places in the jungle, be sure to check them out. You can change the destination of waygates too (located at each corner of the map) by stepping onto the circle of powers nearby.
- Some hero abilities can cast on ally towers, which makes them stronger.
Type of Special Shops / Merchants:
- Bank / Black Market: Allows you to store your gold. By doing so, you can earn interest and protect your gold. Of course the enemy can invade this building and steal your gold too.
- Loser Helper: Provides help for losers. If you always getting killed, you can buy some powerful items from this shop. For example: Loser Gun, a powerful gun with a bullet that can deal damage to enemy. The damage = Your total number of deaths x 100.
- Death Merchant: Sells the Death Spells which will be auto casted when you are dead. For example: If you purchased Death Immolation, your body will automatically burnt and damage enemies nearby when you were killed. There are about 11 types of death spells, but you can only purchase 1 at a time.
- Counter Spell Shop: Sells items that can counter some hero spells. For example: Item Guardian - When carried, can protect your items and prevent them from being stolen by Items Collector. The disadvantage is that you will get damaged by that hero when it casts "Steal Item" on you.
- Olymzeus Spell Shop: Sells the Ultimate Spells for hero of Level 20. You can only purchase 1 type at a time. For example: Bag of Gold spell - Put your gold coins into a huge bag and throw it towards an enemy hero to deal damage to it. damage = amount of gold x 2
- Transformer Merchant: Sells items that can be clicked to transform to another kind of item and therefore change the original item abilities. For example: Transformer Sword - gives 50 bonus to damage. Can be transformed to Transformer Shield - gives 25 armor.
- Shops Summoner: Allows you to summon merchants / shops at battlefield so that you can buy those items immediately.
- Items Manipulator: Sells items that can be used to manipulate enemy's items. For example: Item Dropper - Drops all the items carried by an enemy hero.
- Anti Creep GOD: Sells items that can be used to counter the Neutral Creep GOD. For example: Creep GOD Detector - Shows you the location of the Neutral Creep GOD

Story:
In the year of 3088, it has been 400 years since the Earth destruction.. Human live in this planet called "Olymzeus" together with the native ancient "aliens" of this planet. This world is already in peace mode for decades now after the Olymzeus World War - the war among races which lasts for few centuries.
Now, each race lives happily in this lovely planet and their cultures began to merge. Therefore, there is no need for the world government to setup armies in this planet anymore. Everyone start to do business and develop this planet in a good manner.
However, the economy does not go well for years, some people gone rich but some became poor and jobless. A group of gangsters, who do not want to be ruled by the Olymzeus world government, have some bad plans in their minds. They started to steal, rob and used those resources to develop their own "gang"...
Some bad guys, mainly the Orc race, think that this "gang" has potential to rule the world. Sooner and sooner, those people joined this "gang". They are not physically strong but most of them are super genius that can develop high tech skills to steal anything from anyone who they think is powerful in some aspects. After they steal those resources, they use it wisely to enhance their "gang". This "gang" grows stronger and stronger, they renamed this gang as The Evil Thieves Alliance and it became a huge security threat to the government.
However, The Police of Justice, the Interpol of Olymzeus world government, became weaker because some of their most powerful weapons have been stolen by the thieves. Some corrupted police even been bribed by the thieves and work for their side. If it goes on like this, sooner the world will be ruled by the thieves.
Luckily, the government scientists developed a way to bring back the ancient powerful super heroes into this world to assist The Police of Justice in catching or killing all those thieves and betrayers...
So the battle begins... On one end stands the Powerful Justice force - The Police of Justice, on the other end stands Evil Thieves Alliance that can steal anything to strengthen their army... Who will PREVAIL??

if you did minor changes, why not add a,b,c,etc to your map version???
you didn't changed anything, you only want your map stay on front page ==
wise word from me:
don't waste your time, high downloads number not means people like your map.

lol @ your "1000+ Downloads" title then
yes, it does make it look very much like you are trying to keep your map on the first page, since you
a) do not update version number
b) update your map exactly frequently enough for it to keep staying on page 1
c) you do not provide changelogs, etc
Maybe it isn't that, but atm it really looks like you are trying to achieve that. It may be that I am wrong, but the fact that you are not providing a newer version number, updating so frequenty and not providing changelogs, really does lead people to believe you are doing it for that reason.

i liked the computer AI makes it fun, and the neutral towers makes it interesting. but sence you have the AI you should make it so when a player leaves it makes his hero an AI so he essentially keeps playing.

If I didn't changed anything and just reupload the same version everyday, then the map won't stay in front page. You can have a try if you don't believe. And I would like to see your comments about the gameplay too.
Hoernchen, maybe you are right, I should write some change log here so that the others will believe what have I changed. But I won't add the version number since its not a major changes.
Ok, great idea. hope to get more feedback from you.

Ok, I know MapGnome does not count private games, but if you do a simple search, you end up with 0 plays. (For sake of comparison see a search for another map, for example Battleships.) Your map here has 0 plays on each server. So much for having thousands of downloads. Maybe people would take this map more seriously if it isn't uploaded onto the front page every single day.

You cannot determine the popularity like this, this is an AI map, anyone could play it off9 and as I know, it is quite popular in Garena too. So, stop flaming me if you got nothing to comment about the gameplay!

How am I flaming you? I just want to get the point across that it's not good to keep re-uploading any map to get it on the front page, and I'm sure the admins would agree with me on this. And as someone pointed out earlier, why are you so defensive?

I would have agreed with you if I keep uploading the same version without making any changes at all and so do the admins. But the fact is that I made changes to the map before uploading it and I have posted the change logs too. Of course I cannot do anything If you still don't agree with that. I will only be defensive when I do not agree with some points.
Thanks, do you mind telling me what should be fixed?
