The most maps are unplayable for noobs (in novice). Because the most mappers cant imagine what kind of techniques nubs are able to play. E.g. dd-through-freeze with teles is pretty hard becuse they can't rehook in the right way. Hookthru is mostly better.

There are few basic techniques nubs are able to play:
* walking
* jumping from platform to platform
* climbing a not freezed wall
* HF at a wall
* drag somebody down while the partner is hooking the wall
* I probably forgot something

Multimap or kobra 1 is a better map for beginners for example

Make more than one way (one easier but longer and a short but harder way)

But there a things what mappers shall avoid!
* solo parts as rare as possible
* do not make parts where people have to do fast different things in a short time (bad example: wallhammer part in "introduction" )
* ...


At the moment "Introduction" is novice 2 or 3 because novice is NOT for nubs.

Please, please make a Novice 1* map like this. I've been asking mappers for that for over a year.
