the reduced ammo sucks, but that makes jump maps even more challenging xD

I believe Mar thought he would be clever and reply to an advertising bot, which was of course subsequently banned and posts removed. Had he just allowed the mods to do their job, the thread would have been un-bumped because of the post removal. Instead, Mar is now the effective Thread Necromancer.

Good job!
