Malinovka is not on the list for obvious reasons  

[drboot]

hehe looks interesting

too bad they didnt go the whole fantasy route w/ points for each bracket

[eat3reat3r]

Not really. That map is not the best for arty players with all the buildings. I put Mines since that map is fair to everytank in the game. Plus it is one of the starter maps where everyone played when he/she was a tier 1 or 2.

+1 to that, it's one of the oldest maps, i think it's even one of the first tree hailing from the alpha days.
Yet it's practically the best map, neck and neck with Ensk

i don't know why the map devs don't learn from this and stop making wide open horrible maps (******** river, ****shire, campinovka 2.0, fishing ****, etc), essentially every new map they release is horrid

Can you blame them for not even including Malinovka..........I don't even feel sorry for it.  This contest however, this I like.

The top bracket will probably be neck and neck between Abbey and Ensk,  the bottom bracket will probably be a clean sweep.

Also for those wondering, maps not listed are.


El Halluf
Karelia
Komarin
Malinovka
Sand River
Swamp
Fjords
Lakeville


I'm guessing they choose these based of that poll they did a while ago.  I know the excluded list included all of my personal least favourite, however was surprised to see Lakeville left off, oh well.

[Ursa_major_prime]

Bummer - Malinovka is my favorite actually . . .

[mizaralcor]

Hmm, I see no Komarin there. I thought Komarin is everybody's "favorite" map?  

[Redhartsock]

HIMMELSDORF will win.

[whitedragonking]

although i have a strong feel on who is going to win. it will still be rare to get the gold.
think about it
maby 500 people per map. or more because of popularity. then divide it. for the 20 people getting the gold.
its a cool idea but i feel like the lottery is easier.

[Cheekyman]

I voted himmelsdorf

[whitedragonking]

lol no one would chose Malinovka if it was in....well maby arty but thats the only thing that does not get piss off in the game.
this will be interesting

[Jay4hand]

Very hard toss up, Mines or Himmelsdorf.... I chose Mines because I like to play arty sometimes.

[MrFUBAR117]

Westfield!

[Hillariousman]

All about Steppes.
