* jitspoe sneaks in and drops this off: http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=15326.0

Figured I'd try to make something since it didn't seem there were many people participating, and I wanted to see more pong maps.

Right, this ended 3 hours ago

If the judges could please download the 3 entry maps, judge them with a rating out of 10 on each of the criterea laid out in the first post, a short explanation for each rating, and then PM me the answers by Friday please.

Hopefully this won't take the full 3 weeks the last contest did.

Thankyou for all the entries

maybe you should have people say they are competing before the comp., or sign up so you know how many are participating :-/

Garrett · « **Reply #43 on:** November 12, 2008, 08:11:36 PM »

This topic is a good indicator. Would it really matter anyway, knowing that who is participating? If you want to summit a map, it wouldn't really matter who is participating.

Maybe you should make the competition two or three months in length. >_>

Laged · « **Reply #45 on:** November 13, 2008, 11:17:51 AM »

I agree with Eiii.
One month is not enough to make a good map, one can hardly make a decent map in that time.

Laged has withdrawn from judging, thankyou to Reed for stepping in. Don't worry, he's already arguing with Dagless over each map

I just uploaded all 3 entries to 3iob Pub. I put each map on with a few people in the pub, and everyone agrees that cusomans map is the best one, followed by ricks, then jitspoes. Although all 3 of them do have problems.

Sorry Jitspoe, but your map isn't even playable. The ball falls every 2 seconds, the long tunnels that are supposed to shoot you over to the base don't work ( the ball just stops at the end and falls ), people constantly got stuck in the tunnels. Looks decent but no one will ever look at it for more than 2 minutes unless alot of that is fixed.

Ricks map only had 1 fault that we found while playing, sometimes when a door closes on you, you fall through the map. It is very easy to get lost in though, a few too many doors?

And finally Cusos map only had a few very minor issues, like some places the roof is a little too low, but thats about it. EVERYONE in the pub seemed to love Cusos map, including me.

Cuso #1
Rick #2
Jitspoe #3

In about 95% of the people that were in the pubs opinion.

Cuso wins. Game over.

Rick · « **Reply #49 on:** November 13, 2008, 10:39:19 PM »

I'm hoping that i win another rc helicopter! =]

a) SuperMan and "the pub" are not the judges
b) there's more to the judging than just gameplay

On a sidenote, jitspoe's map was fun after getting used to it, the long tunnels worked perfectly fine for me etc

Before I was a judge I told him that his gameplay was good, but there are 2 other judges and all 3 maps are judged on aesthetics and technical factors too! I don't know what the result will be but good luck to all the entrants!

ViciouZ · « **Reply #57 on:** November 15, 2008, 05:34:07 PM »

The results are in!

Map	Aesthetics	Technical	Gameplay	Total
SpaceCraze	14/30	13/30	11/30	38/90
SpaceBalls	25/30	24/30	11/30	60/90
2Port	20/30	20/30	19/30	59/90

Jitspoe won with Spaceballs, followed by Cusoman with 2Port and Rick with Space Craze.

GlobalGamers would like to thank all the participants and judges for producing and marking these excellent entries.

All winners please email your name, shipping address, and nick to buttaknife@globalgamers.net and he will take care of the prizes!

Attatched are the judges summaries, comments and results for each - they are a very interesting read and if you're wondering about any judgements or want to see each judge's scores and opinions, it is recommended you read them below :-)
