There is basically no rules apart from:
1)No copied/plagerised/remakes maps.
2)Started after I posted.

Anything else goes! It can be dm/tdm/koth/ctf ANYTHING.

Might just have to reinstall BSP for this. Who are the judges? Do we have to announce our entries somewhere?

[Clipz]

Can you partner up with people for this or is it individual?

Nevermind I didnt read the first post you already answered that one.

[Spook]

Don't count on a submission from me, but I may try to whip something up in my free time.

Lets work on it together I'm going to try to get uni/jitspoe and viciouz to get in on it. With all of us working on one map we could make the ultimate DP map.

Uni and I have talked about this before getting multiple people to work on a map our list of people is long that we want to use probably around 10 people.

Ha, this reminds me remarkably of that xMAPCOM group I tried to get popular a loooooong way back, complete with first mapping contest! Even the map theme is similar!

Recently found a drive with all my mapping tools and random map ideas, as well as a couple of comparatively-complete .map files I had made. So I came on here to check things out and to my slight surprise, a mapping contest!
On a related note, if I'm the original creator of a map that never got out of beta (DodgeBrawl), but I have plans to do a complete re-do of it, where the only similarities would be in terms of gameplay, would that be an auto-disqualification if I entered it in the contest?

[Dirty_Taco]

Don't mind me, just passing through

[CheMiCal]

abandoned/destroyed? that's just begging for the empire state building to be re-made. why hasn't anyone done this?

I am one. I'll be able to find more soon! Just make a 'Newmap:" thread, I usually check them!

I stole it from Viciouz! and the theme from Cusoman, leader, lover, the best. Also, one of the rules says "Maps must have been started after the contest began".
