hmmm its been 10 days since the due date, i guess the judges are still hard at work... 

EDIT:

Woot! the maps are awsome! the judging server is up with no password nao, too.

only 10 days? I've only got one map to judge for 6 months or so now, if only this board had icon 19.

Took a look on the server, and I must say I'm really, really impressed with the quality of work that's been put forward. Congrats to all who submitted their maps  Regardless of who wins the contest, the ultimate winner is the tremulous community.

Question: Who made wrecktify? I was expecting top-notch releases from supertanker, odin, and brain/face (and they delievered ), but this one really caught me by surprise. It's quite nice

Rezyn.  That map had the most fun gameplay that I've experienced in a while, also.

I have to say, I dont like Odin's map.  It isnt that it looks bad or anything, it is just laggy as HELL.

BTW, I made ship_b0...

Much better, though I still get avg. of 20-30 FPS throughout the map.

Hello,

The map contest judging is coming - even slowly as it is. As some of you have seen, there is a Tremcentral server up for the map contest. While anyone is welcome to go into that still - we, the judges, have found it nearly impossible to all meet at the same time + manage to successfully get an 8v8 Going. So, we have moved to plan B. The |SST| Tremulous server has been edited - and now will act, atleast for the next few days, as the balance testing server for the Tremcentral map Contest. A lot of things have been taken down in order to assure that no outside influence affects the balance tests, atleast as much as we could - and the players have made a lot of sacrifices for this.

BPS are temporarily 120.
Slots are temporarily 39 (When a judge is on, teams will be locked and 8v8 will be allowed only).
Share/donate has been disabled.
The Turretanglemod has been disabled.
Unlagged is off.
Several other things were taken out which might affect judging.

I know some of you will find us moving the testing grounds to SST 'uacceptable', however to those I'd like for you to completely understand that we've tried our best to keep it on its own server - but in order to judge and get an accurate balance score, this is necessary.

Anyone that would like to come to |SST| to try the maps out before they are 'officialy' released, feel free.

You can download the maps here:

http://tremcentral.com/cc1/ or, if you have a client with wwwdownloads - just connect to SST and it will download.

Regards,
