Ok it's an URL ...every number stands for a letter in the alphabet. As you can see no number is higher than 27, therefore it's the Latin alphabet.
I'm to lazy to hunt the letters down.

@jmartin nice joke but you should consider to show the actual URL so the crawler bots can find it.

You can hide it like that THIS IS A HIDDEN MESSAGE ONLY THE SMARTEST ONE CAN FIND IT.

Oh and, papercoffee, I also found your "secret", so I guess I am "the smartest" :lol2:
I liked the map, for now I only want to talk about the "minimal bot support". Well, I would say, for DM and TDM, it is not bad, I agree it could be better, but it is very playable. Now, for CTF, only the red team goes for the flag :facepalm: , so you always end up red: 10+ blue: 0

That j-frame map is begging for an edit! Textures mainly, but also pathing and other stuff.

DM maps and the CTF:
Teleports in the spy bases are weird but interesting, you don't actually change locations when you touch them... you only get there after you let them do.

Decent bot-pathing, with a few areas they seem to get in and never leave.

The target practice dummies were a nice touch.

Signs all around the map are backwards on the opposite side, texture on them needs to be applied to both sides.

Couple spots have no textures at all, showing that moldy-looking default texture.

Nope very cool. That's exactly what I was hoping for.

Thanks guys.

Yeah, I thought it would be a fun spy themed tie-in to use the A1Z26 cipher for the map's URL, and see who solved it first.

My girlfriend predicted it would take either 5 seconds or 5 days.

Congratulations to TankBeef who cracked the code in slightly under 1 hour and 20 minutes after being posted.

Buy you a Starbucks for that. :tu:

Thanks also for the beta test.

I went back and replaced all the PlayerStarts and PathNodes in the CTF version.

The bots perform a lot better.

The file CTF-SpyVSpy-b.unr is the updated version.

Thanks again.

Awesome, I won something!!! :lol2:

(Brought to you by Starbucks, the official drink of code crackers and beta testers) :P

I will try the CTF again and see.

EDIT: Yes, much better now!!! :tu:
