Lightning SP Reviews. Hah

I don't know if any of the regulars here remember, but way back around 2000-2003 I had a web site called "Lightning SP Reviews", hosted on good ol' Geocities. Back then, I did very short reviews of over a hundred maps with scores and all. Today, I was browsing through my Unreal file archives that I've had for years - and low and beyond - I found a text document containing all those reviews! Of course, they are incredibly outdated now, and my writing was absolutely atrocious back then (I was about 16-17 when I started that web site; now I am 33). However, I thought someone might get a kick out of them.
These reviews definitely rate the maps far too high compared to today's standards, but they were written back before modern packs like ONP were even released. The best packs back then were classics like Hexephet, Illhaven, Shrakitha, etc... However, these reviews still give you an idea of what might be worth checking out from all the old maps floating around out there. Who knows, you might even find a hidden gem or two!
Anyway, Here is the text document containing all the reviews. If anyone is looking for old hidden gems, give it a quick glance!

Most of the maps mentioned in those reviews can be found in the OldUnreal Archives.
Unreal SP Map Archive: http://www.oldunreal.com/maps/single/
UT SP Map Archive: http://www.oldunreal.com/maps/utsingle/
Some of these maps are not even at OldUnreal, but I have them all on an external HD. If someone reads about a map in the document they can't find, let me know and I can upload it!
