    Weird maps is an exceptionally great series; reexploring the old times is done perfectly with your type of presentation. As for a suggestion, I'd recommend dr_office, dr_block, or other good, old-ish TF2 deathrun maps which still let players access some secrets scattered around them. I think they'd fit perfectly, with the references in the traps and so forth.

    If you are interested in covering Gmod Tower, but don't want to worry about covering it on an "unofficial" server, the devs actually put up an official server a few years ago that's still running called GMT Reunion.
    I believe the plan was to keep it up and running until its spiritual successor, Tower Unite, was out of Early Access, at which point the source code for the gamemode is supposed to become publicly available.

    Have you ever considered covering weird Left 4 Dead campaigns? Night Terror by Nipper and Haunted Forest by Snow are classic Source Engine weirdness that doesn't fall into these "no no" categories, not to mention the incredibly odd Glubtastic series by Dr. Face. I also made a weird campaign about time travel called Time to Die, it's full of offbeat easter eggs and I'd be happy to chat about it.

    I'd love to see video on sunsetgultch, to be honest it's one of my favorite maps. to my knowledge not to many people outside of the train build community know about it.
    If you do plan on covering it I suggest downloading some public locomotives or try to build one yourself using some tutorials, as the best way to experience sunset is by train.
    And if anyone is planning on building a train I suggest watching this video:ua-cam.com/video/UCyloJG1NyM/v-deo.html

      I've been apart of the community for nearly 6 years now and I have a lot of (mostly positive) memories associated with the map.

      I used to be a part of FC&N many years ago, was around kinda for a year and then fell off. Sunset Gulch is a great map, but its laser focus on being an amazing map for trainbuild would probably make it pretty boring to cover for someone who's not into the whole scene.

    A really, really well made AND super weird map I would recommend for a video is dr_playstation for TF2. I know you said no maps based off other games, but dr_playstation is a LOT more than that. It has so many insane secrets and is so impressive that it would be a really good and fun video. If you could contact the creator and get an interview on some of the weird decisions like the secret final boss or the obsession with Buzz Lightyear, I'd be ALL over that.
    That being said, I'll be around for any weird map video you make. I love hearing about this kinda thing! Like and sub well earned.

    EDIT2: This map is also the reason i bought a playstation one (The original one)
    I have a map that is good, well-made and took *4 years* to build. Now that isn't the main reason why it is good, there is a multitude of reasons why I think so highly of this map. Dr_Playsation_final is a deathrun map that was based off 5 different ps1 games. they are as follows. Toystory 2, Crash bandicoot, Spyro, Gex 3D and Wipeout. Now i have a lot to say about this map so i will portion it so.
    What makes the map high quality)
    The map as mentioned earlier took 4 years before being given the "_final" to the map name however it still has a few bugs due to some servers having BHOP scripts and whatnot. The map has 3 things that are extremely noteworthy.
    1) The map has a save feature where if you complete a game (i will talk about that later) the map will save your progress as long as the server isn't shut down.
    2) The map is 99% custom textures models and sounds (Custom being assets are taken from the ps1 games if not made by the map makers). some of the models such as Spyro and Gex have animations where their bodies would behave as if they where actually in a ps1 game.
    3) The map is closer to a game than it is to a tf2 map. (you can come back to this point once you read the rest of the comment.)
    I will now explain the entirety of the map as played from start to finish.
    You start the match as RED outside the "Complex" that is featured in Toystory 2. If you are BLU you are inside the vents with a screen in front of you. on the screen are 5 images and a prompt telling you to pick a song. Should you not pick the map will simply do it for you. as the Runner (RED) you proceed to go inside the well themed map with slight parkour and accompanying music. If you are lucky you might just spot a white playstation one card with the text "cheats" scribbled on with marker. But i will touch base on that later. you go down a vent and appear in a sort of office, jump up on the chair and onto the table you see your path is blocked and a red switch. Upon hitting the switch the door in front of you opens and 2 "elevators" begin. When one goes up the other goes down before switching directions. after more parkour and traps you are finally at the top. You see a fan blowing you up into the vent and you don't know what to expect. You jump inside revealing a room with health packs and a mysterious voice. Zurg appears! poised to attack! with his blaster he shoots foam balls at you dealing tons of damage. Classic video game style you have to hit him 3 times to stun him, after he is stunned he loses 1 hp out of 4 and will now shoot for around 5-10 seconds uninterrupted and invulnerable. then you hear an alarm. the floor is made out of fans that all start at once, you fly up into the air while dodging his attacks. a few more attacks later and he explodes in defeat. a big fan comes out in the middle. you go in it to be launched upwards revealing a white room. it has an outlet, cd's, cartridges, a sort of shredder? oh, and a playstation 1. Hitting the power button turns the playstation off. Hitting the open disc button opens it up as a robot arm begins to remove the disc and place one of 4 discs in side. you must now complete a small minigame based off the ps1 game that was inserted. after winning you are awared a trophy in the beginning based of the game you won.
    That is 1 game.
    Trying to play the map again. You realize, something has changed. There's posters scattered around, hidden messages. What could this mean? after a few more games you have now completed all 4 of the games. now you are about to hear something straight out of a fever dream. going to the ps1 the next time places a cd without cover art. Scribbled onto it is the text "The shining" Uncaring you start the ps1. You hear tv static as Johnny from the shinning appears on your scream as you are teleported somewhere else. you get the classic line "here's Johnny" and he chases after you in the famous hotel for a bit. you break a window in your way and you are now outside. there you must find the exit of a maze where you see what looks like a grave that reads "here lies Johnny" after tricking him to fall into the hole you are now greeted with a hidden path on a conveyor belt. once you step on it theres no coming back. inside you see a stadium filled with the buzz lightear cups seemingly cheering for something. a few flashes on your screen later and you have to fight a boss that is a || 3 Legged robot with a rocket launcher shooting buzz lightyear heads and a buzz lightyear "nuke" the robot also has a tv showing Johnny's face. || You now have to trick him into shooting the nukes onto the glass around the arena to hit the levers that will damage johnny. do this 3 times to kill him. on the last hit he will ONLY be shooting nukes. Kill him and you are awarded with the maps 100% completion.
    So. Now for the secrets.
    There is a cheat card that has 15 different spawn locations all around the map. each spawn location is random. Upon touching the cheatcard your character will now be holding "the intelligence" and now is where the fun part of the map comes in. Go to the very end of the map and as you might expect. You can plug the fucking card into the ps1. this DOES alter gameplay. like the name suggests its a cheat card that allows you to cheat. This makes the minigames substantially easier. Do you not like dirty cheaters? well then just plug the cheat card into the convenient "Cheat card shredder" also found in the playstation room.
    At 100% completion you are awarded with a new cheatcard called the 100% card. this card respawns all players when inserted into the ps1 and when shredded will delete your progress.
    When you are at 100% you have a 1/10 chance every game to see one of the elevators in the first half having a "green light". if you see this and you know what your are doing. you are in for a fucking treat. Go to the elevator and it opens up showing you a door saying "for the love of god do not open". as the chad you are you enter. Revealing the "bud room" showing countless of "paintings" of cursed Buzz lightyear images. One of the images say the buzz lightyear line "It appears there are not intelligent organisms" or something. There is a small buzz lightyear infront of that image. Hit it. you are now inside the secret bud room. where if you know how to (i do) you can spawn the bud card. now the bud card can already spawn however it is a miniscule chance. Getting the bud card will teleport you after like 5 seconds to the ps1 room. instantly. here you have 2 options. Insert the bud card. or shred it. Inserting it plays "Strange things" from toystory while having overlays of buzzlightyears face dance across your screen. Choose to shred the card and you are in for a treat. it instantly starts spewing out buzz lightyear sprites and starts to shake the ground. after a bit you hear the pirates of the carribean but ultra deformed. you can see a picture of buzzlighyear saying "You killed everything. Good job cowboy" and its not a joke. Shredding the card WILL crash the server you are currently on.
    I can't go into much depth as im in writing but this map is FUCKING AMAZING and i have nowhere to vent on how much i fucking love this map.
    I wont tell how to spawn the bud card here as it can still crash servers so i choose to be safe and not share that information. This map was supposed to have more but because of the limits of the hammer engine stuff had to be removed.
    The map has a trailer: ua-cam.com/video/k8NKDAXMUUM/v-deo.html
    It has an OST: ua-cam.com/video/-CkufoDStyY/v-deo.html

    To enable the use of the cvar sv_airaccelerate 100, you will need to run it on a dedicated server. This could also fix the problem with maps that fail to load on a listenserver (clientside). I recommend using steamcmd to set up a dedicated server for the map's game, then install sourcemod (& metamod). (There are plenty of guides or wiki pages that will help with this!) If you add yourself to the admin list, you can use the command in chat: !cvar sv_airaccelerate 100, or add it to the list of server.cfg commands using sm_cvar sv_airaccelerate 100. Hope this helps!

    command for surfing requires sourcemod so you would probably think you couldn't surf on client made server
    however, there is a very simple solution to bypass this, and it is to simply join any surf server, leave, then load the map yourself
    hope this helps and you may cover surf maps
    command itself is: sm_cvar sv_airaccelerate #

    You mentioned something about the map trade_connie(I have no clue what the map is and the name was not shown, this is just my guess of it) and how it crashes you back to the *menu*. That specific wording makes it seem like the map itself is somehow booting you back to the menu.
    Maybe decompile it to search for anything that may be used as a form of map protection? I know of atleast one other map which has a form of map protection built in, making it near useless unless manipulated in hammer

    I think I may have mentioned it before but, there's a map called cp_boulder_v5 that I think would be interesting to cover, not because of the map itself, since I think it would fall on the first category, just a decent control point map that was made years ago, but because a really old flight through video made by the map maker started to get recommended to me and maybe a few other people, at least for me it first appeared in my recommendations after I started to watch your weird maps videos like 2 years ago, also the map itself is a little bit difficult to download, as you need to go through a bunch of dead links via wayback machine to even get it. I feel like that makes it somewhat interesting, seeing as it's on some kind of weird limbo state.
    Or idk, maybe the map is well known and I'm just an idiot but as far as I know I've never seen it in any community server I've been to.

If they might even still exist anywhere online, Ones created around 2012-2015 for a group of friends to goof around in? (If that makes any sense.) That time where Community Servers were popular.
    As an example, I personally remember a server that was like a little town, had a bar, train, tennis court, boxing ring, and buildings you could go in. Also had a Phys cube with a Dead Leaves characters Face on it that you could kick around. Wish It could be seen again hah.

Also just that there are many iterations of that map and I’m curious to see all the changes, it might not be weird enough though.

    Hi. Haven't watched the video yet, but I have a couple of map recommendations. Could you have a look at gm_fork, gm_excess (all maps in the excess series), trade_clocktown_v1a, dm_rainbow_road_b1 (and other maps from other non source games), zs_obj_e_girl_e_quest_e3, some of the gmod tower maps, and similar stuff? I've love to see you cover some surf/bhop maps too, and it'd also be cool if you looked at some maps themed around/loosely filled with hateful content. I think that would be especially fun to watch!!

    A list of maps that (I hope) fit into the criteria of a map you'll cover. (Edit: I forgot to add Growing Map when I first wrote this.)
    EX1 - Growing Map (Started off tiny but the author kept adding in new rooms suggested by comments on the workshop page.)
    1 - gm_gmall (Really well made map full of fun little secrets.)
    2 - de_apehouse (Absolute classic map. There is also a Christmas version that's quite nice.)
    3 - GMod13_Hotels (One of my absolute favorites, just so interesting to explore.)
    4 - gm_novenka (Has a similar feeling to gm_mobenix_v3. Really big sandbox map sorta deal.)
    5 - supersizeroom_v2 (Another classic map, just a wonderful relic of Source.)
    6 - HomeTown 1999 (Really comfy map of a small town, has a bunch of shops and stuff like that to explore.)

    Solution for the surfing problem is stupidly simple, just type "sv_airaccelerate" in the console and change it to a higher value, sumple as that. You can do the same thing foe bhop maps in CSS, and in CSGO you can even do sv_enablebunnyhopping and sv_autobunnyhopping to bhop whilst holding spacebar. Easy solutions to an easy problem without any silly workarounds.

    Gmod Tower came back for a bit a few years ago with Gmod Tower Reunion. It was Lobby 1 and I believe the content is still hosted, but either they purposely left out content or it simply broke, but there are missing textures everywhere. No one plays the lone server they host for it still, but I think it all works?
    It seems they care way more about the code for GMT than the maps since some stay up on the workshop, but the original Lobby maps aren’t up anywhere which is a shame.

Two bases at the end with no spawn rooms, and a flag. It's not a GOOD map, it's basically 2fort on steroids, and it's extraordinarily simple, but it's fun and interesting to look at.
