I say ammount of members working on the map shouldnt count, if the clan can produce a better map with less members than the other, then it shouldnt matter.

No matter what the outcomes of this "competition" are, it still doesn't mean you have the best map making clan. If you just judge by the way your members make maps then your just seeing who can make the best map. Maps don't make clans, the members do and how the clan treats others and themselves. I think your completely wrong about the best map = best clan shit. You could have a clan of the best map makers in the world and it still doesn't mean there the best clan, especially if they lack respect for others.

For one, since you have changed your opinion of what 'makes' a clan several times, I think your opinion is irrelevant.

Another thing, the "Best Clan" is an incentive, guess you do not have enough leadership skills to see through that fact.

Swp, many people have asked you. Can you please answer the question? =/

Is there a limit to how many are perticipating on the map?

4 = Minimum.

? = Maximum.

I assume Clan Oo will probably enter something, but I wont help. No matter what we do, people will still recognize us as a bounding clan regardless of this little contest.

Besides, how can everyone judge on one map to represent the clan? If a clan is supposed to be composed of many members (in this case many map makers), then how do 4 members take on the responsibility of making a map for the whole entire group? I just see a lot of flaws in this and I feel that every map the clan makes should go into the judgement, not just one.

Furthermore, if I were to admit that Oo.Hydra.oO, Oo.Snipe.oO, and Oo.Solar.oO were helping me on Monopoly and it turned out to be a great map, would the greatness of that one map overcome the bad connotation that comes with an Oo name? I doubt that stigma will leave us so easilly...

Several actions have been taken to eliminate clan popularity influencing people's votes.

There is no maximum of people in the associated clan that can work on the map.

Even if Monopoly turned out to be the greatest map ever, you wouldn't be allowed to enter it in the competition, and possibly get disqualified. You broke the rule, "No one outside the clan can see it," and "No help from any other clan or public."

You have to be in a clan, first of all.

My point was that this contest wont change anything. Oo will still be called a newb-clan.

And then again I could just copy the trigs and essentially remake the same map with Oo members. Thus it wouldn't matter that anyone not in Oo has seen "Monopoly A" when we'd be making "Monopoly B". There's no way to enforce that rule.

Is there a maximum filesize?

How will you know if the member has started on the map before the competition or not?

Do we HAVE to do the log? pinch.gif

Indeed as Kami.Kow Stated max file size? What if you have big clan and create 2 teams work on 2 different maps is that allowed? -_- are you only one doing the voting @:@?

Maybe I can enter by myself as my own clan... tongue.gif , abliet my old clan tag is from 4-5 years ago and long defunct, hehe. Anyhow the no public rule is dumb... good map makers have trusted testers to help get fresh ideas into the map making process and get good feedback. If the only people working on a map are the makers they'll be more likely to not see problems in it.

Map judging will be done professionally. I am not doing them. I am just hosting/planning everything. I have come across some judging concepts that I will investigate the pros/cons.

There is no maximum file size.
You can not submit more then one map, however, the only case that allows this if its a series of maps such as a scenario ... or a really really really long RPG =P
I left the genre of the map open, it doesnt have to be multiplayer.

I have decided, you do not have to do the map log, but you will be taken off a considerable amount of points for organization. (It's one of those things your teacher makes you do that will help you in the long run.)

Main goal of the map log is to ensure clans are not cheating, other is organization
--> Should have one anyways?

-------SUBMITTION OF MAPS---------

Completely maps should be PMed to me at @:@ or emailed
zackcp04@gmail.com
by the due date. (I will be checking) -- NO EXCEPTIONS!

You do not have to sign up, the map you submit is your ticket.

Dont worry, it will be 1 ownage map.

I also think the log is stupid, people want to use their time to make the map, not wirte a log pinch.gif but oh well.....

All map making clans vs. me!!!!1 YEAH ROK ON

no, that'd be dumb. I actually did a stupid stunt like that awhile ago... and won.


But seriously, anything that puts you lazy ass clans to use is a good thing IMO. I hate clans that exist only for their own sake; reputation and such. If you arn't doing anything, you don't have a reason to exist.

Of course, if that same applied to humanity, there wouldn't be much of us left. Meh.

P.S. If this is gonna be anything big, shouldn't it get a news mention?
