Next week?!

No way I can't make it. Not enough time, simply.

[Knowitall66]

As CorSair has said, not enough notice, should at the very least give a month to work on entries. Also at the moment I think most of our communities mappers (especially the more notable ones) are busy with stuff (RL etc).

Also in regards to your rules, you didn't say that the submission actually had to be started following the start of the competition (I'm assuming that's something you don't want).
Oh and how can you claim 3c?
Competitions generally have themes too. (So judging is easier etc)
(There's a typo in final sentence (Unless you can manipulate time))

[CATAHA]

1.2? NO, thanx!

[OhaiReapd]

This is a great idea. But yea, you really should give them like 2 weeks to do so. Artwork (Maps) takes time, and it doesn't come in just 1 week.

[Tamaru]

i just realized what week it was, brain fart.


and the theme is 1.2 maps made for scrimmages, just as ATCS has a set layout and whatnot.


also i'm setting the date a bit higher, sorry about that.

claim 3c? explain that for me please.

[Tamaru]

friday,November 12,2010 at 12:00 AM eastern time is the new date

[A Spork]

I would, but I'm busy with trying to get Thule to a beta release(curse you strange shadow and door that spawns in the wrong place!!!)
Unless Thule turns out to be a very good scrim map and it can be a previously worked upon project...

[Knowitall66]

claim 3c? explain that for me please.

I simply meant that you can't say for certain it will get played a lot in the 1.2 community, all you can guarantee is that it will be on your server and henceforth may get played.

[your face]

I have two problems:

 c. There will be no DDOSing of an opponet.
  d. The map must have non-default textures

Also, GPP has like 20 players.

its being used for the already well known GPP open tourneys, and the NN tourneys

[Aelita]

  c. There will be no DDOSing of an opponet.

Only in Tremulous would somebody say that on a mapping competition's thread.
