Yeah I think he was being sarcastic.
Maybe I'm just some dumb simpleton from the suburbs but I'm not seeing how the gameplay doesn't fit the theme. It's a butcher shop and the poster is of beef cuts. Done. This isn't a complicated concept I don't see why we have to make it one.
And there's things like flies and shit and grass - what do they have to do with butcher shops?
There could be territories like butcher knives here, that assault certain points of the cow.
There could be a more elements of the butcher shop here - customers, the butcher himself, other meat products, the cash machine
Instead of doing a mini map, try for a chalk board and instead of having bonuses, how about prices. So it would be
£6 Sirloin
£5 Rump
and so on.

But without the butcher shop, the image of cow might as well be anywhere. Without the butcher shop theme, the map will again be just a cow, and I think it was made very clear before that "just a cow" is not going to pass.

Because It just sounds like taking the concept and running wild with it, into an area that no one really asked for. This map is about the cow. The butcher shop elements should support that, not the other way around.

But maybe one day I'll meat your approval. "No pun intended"

Replace the poo with a few bottles of milk, and I don't think having grass on the map is unrealistic.

Drum roll please..... Rename that map "Butcher Shop" or Butchers wall"

There has never been an intention to make a butcher shop map, the idea was and I believe approved, to make a map of a cow in a butcher shop setting. Please correct me if I'm wrong Thenobodies.
