Ok there is an extra month on top of the mapping contest for you to compete in, Deadline is now the 31st of December so you have plenty of time to map.
Ill have a think about what awards I could give away like this, good idea.

This'll make mappers focus on 1 spec to make it best in ther map...
And even newbie players will have fun trying their imagination in MAPPING!!

...I started making excrement map, so didnt DT...

I see what you did there

I was saying we started off as crappy mappers too. Trying to give new mappers inspiration to keep trying and working hard and the results will come one day. Just don't expect it over night. Your first 5-10 maps will probably suck but you will figure it out soon. Every mapper thinks their map is good. I've made 30 maps... 10 get played in pubs still or matches. 1:3 is a good ratio. It's just highly difficult to get a well constructed map the community enjoys.

Oh come on, rly nobody DIDNT get that? ^^
I was talking about you using "didnt" instead of "did" in your sentence, which would suggest DT's map were always perfect. Obviously it was unintentional, but still, come on :p. I thought i made it obvious enough.

Anyway, i wont be participating, because there is too much work for university to be done. Also i think that it will be interesting to see the results of this.
Good luck to all competitors, may the force be with you.

I got it!

I just didn't post here because I would have nothing to say about this contest.

BASEBALLDUDE · « **Reply #25 on:** November 14, 2013, 06:36:45 PM »

I'm telling you, I might just make a crap map and put it up here in a few days cuz nobody seems to want to participate.

Proza its a broken english statement. It actually does make sense

. You are just not familiar with it.

So you meant to say that you started off making bad maps but DT, when he started mapping, made good maps? I think, like Proza said, you've made a mistake in your post (using didn't instead of did).

LaZeRs · « **Reply #28 on:** November 14, 2013, 08:03:49 PM »

He's just emphasizing the point that DirtyTaco is [one of] the [best] mapper(s) in DP history.

Clipz · « **Reply #29 on:** November 14, 2013, 09:53:02 PM »

Yes rick, you have never heard someone use that expression? like saying you posted and so didnt lazers. Its a broken english statement...

I understoon what proza said. To clear it up Dt also made excrement maps at first for people wont cant comprehend the statement.

I think the number of contestants is relatively big, I've had 4 say to me personally they will enter, but like ace says they will take time.

I've already given up on clipz. I think he's challenged in more ways than even I can repair.

Oh, and about the topic. Mapping competitions rule. The last DM competition brought a excrement load of great DM maps to rotation so I would expect nothing less from this one. Except... seems that the organizers don't know themselves what they are expecting from this?

All the maps will go into a public rotation for a 5 day period. If the server gets popular enough, the best maps from the contest will stay/ the winner gets a 24/7 server for their map for a period of time.

Here's how my map is coming along

You started that before the contest, though, right?
