I think polished beta would be the way to go - use the feedback from the judges to make tweaks if necessary.

1. Maps must be submitted no later than 6pm on the 11th of November, GMT.
2. Any maps submitted must have been started after this announcement was made.

Edit: Prizes TBA, probably similar to last time :-)

By submitted do you mean posted on the forums, or do we have to give them to you?

Has the prizes been announced yet?

Well they are going to be released - so posted on the forums. Make sure to give them the appropriate new map thread and beta tag.

I want to make sure this is due on Tuesday, because it seems like an odd day for the maps to be due :)

It is due 6pm GMT tuesday, there was a reason, but it is no longer valid.

"Space" was kind of a bad choice, especially with the given textures this game has. Not all of us have time to make new textures for a free game.

True, not to mention, there's actually not that many good maps you can make with the theme "space". I'm not saying its impossible, it's jut hard for most of us who only map in our free time.

Just make it no theme and make the mappers state the theme they used in their creation.

I didn't participate because it's in the middle of the school year, and some of the ideas I had would take a while to implement. A month just flies past with ease.

If you hold this in the summer, it'd probably fare better. Also, having prizes announced at the same time might inspire people more.

I say we should re hold this competition. There was definitely not enough participants. Maybe hold it during the summer.

As 1 of the 2 competitors, I think we should be given a bit better theme that appeals to most mappers, and a time where everyone can actually do it.

Don't give out prizes this time around, maybe hold them to next time.
