This is encouraging maps to be possible as soldier, admins and mappers have already worked hard to reduce the number of t0 soldier jumps, and there are very few maps left. So why do some of you defend prostate when jumps were specifically made impossible for soldier seemly either to piss some people off or to help people who would benefit from a jump that they don't want to do being removed. You might argue that the mappers did it so its completely justified, but this is an action that is made against people jumping so why should we support mappers doing this? As I see it right now those teleports for soldier are simply an excuse to make those bonuses give no points; it is the same effect as leaving the jumps unaffected but have them give no points, only now we can't try the jumps. I would like evidence of a different, less malicious reason for this but I have none as many people involved are not making any comments.
(Valix has replied as I was making this so I'm repeating some of his points)
further proving that points are a mental illness
I'm not sure what side you are on with this comment, but to clarify some things I would like to play the bonus, but it seems I'm prevented from that because some people don't want to work to get those points. I would like to hear what you think of this since you put the collab together.
And I would encourage an admin to make a statement on this, I do not want to point fingers or blame anyone without proper information. I believe this discussion is fundamental to how we think of these jumping servers, either as a sort of competitive scene where maps are moderated or as a place to host maps and record runs.
Also for anyone who cares, I tried playing through the map as soldier and found that only jumps 12 15 and 19 are impossible/unrealistic as soldier. For anyone questioning jump 18 there are wacky strats that are all reasonable, I can show you if you ask.
