It can't hurt, I guess. Strictly speaking, unfinished maps are not what I'd call "fully on topic", but hey, if those rmf's are just a few kB in size...
Besides, it may draw some peoples' attention to this site although they'd never have visited it if their search thingy hadn't told them that there are rmf's to be found here. And once they're here, who knows? Maybe they'll think "What's this site about, anyway?", look around a bit and get interested in bots? Just a vague hope, but I think trading a few kB for this hope sounds like a fair deal.

edit.

counter strike DE maps play out of the box on TOD except for the bomb spot.
Well TOD has more goodies like choppers and tanks and jeeps.
I made a map for TOD ... once.
I was ... basically grumbled outta the community for stating the fact that not all soil is red in Vietnam.
The fgd for TOD is fine.
The people involved in TOD ... I can't say the same about.
Self-righteous blowhards.
Safely, I can say that my map was not great, but it was still just a 1st beta & showed some potential, at least.
It was impossible to get any useable feedback from anyone at their forums.
They were completely unsupportive of new mappers.
(Astonishing, as most of the official maps were REALLY friggin' ugly.)
Well ... they got their wish ... nobody plays their mod.

It was, at best, an unpleasant experience.

p.s. Their prefab vehicles were wrought with overlapping brushes.
Every time I used on ... it required rebuilding/retexturing first.
(Which defeats the whole purpose of having mod-specific prefabs available on your website.)

Umm ... yeah.


I came.
I sawed.
I conquered.
