1)Does it have to be holiday themed? Or can it be anything?

2)Can we upload our maps on another site than SEN that is available for download?

You should change the DLDB part. I've gone pretty much inactive and there are still leftover unapproved stuff left in there. I see no reason why PMs can't work, except that some problems apparently arose in the last contest in the area. Besides, most people would probably prefer not showing off their maps to the public until the contest finishes.

You could have a compromise. PM or DLDB method should be okay, because of all the problems with inactives, debacles from the last contest, etc., whatever the situation is. As long as it's marked [For the Map Making Contest], it should be a way to enter, even if it's though another site.

On another note, the openness for judging is quite the problem. As other people have stated before, there is conspiracy, rigging, revenge, and other situations that could cause a good map to fail horribly. I think one would be wiser to stick to a panel of judges, and if they want to compete, get some benchwarmer and replacement judges to judge for them. Probably a staff of 7 sounds okay enough. Not that any one is going to read my opinion.

No. Anything, as long as it falls into the rules from the first post.

I think judges should be limited otherwise people will just start judging other people's maps really bad to hope they can win.

I can read. His criteria were not really very applicable to melee maps. I'd rather hear it from the person who created the topic, thanks.

Can i submit a map that i started a day before you posted this contest thing?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by MillenniumArmy on 2005-12-11 at 00:50:14
Yes, Finally a map making contest which gives EVERY map an equall chance of winning (not just complex or trigger intense maps.)

But seriously, you need to have judges, otherwise this can turn out to be very rigged. People could get friends from other websites or communities to vote for their maps.

No. Now stop going so far off-topic. Any further questions about my mineral use, please PM me.

We really do need judges because this isnt dair at all. Also why would some one submit a melee map withs hopes of winning?

I'll judge.
I started my map like 4 weeks ago and I want to finish it before starting another one and I'm far from finishing mine, so I got no other choice.

Judge #1 is here and I won't be making a map for the contest.
