Map contest
Im announcing a map contest.
Requirements are:
Must be 12x12.
Must have climable hills with Kbots only and those hills are to have mexes on them(from 1/4 to 1/2 of the map must contain some structure of hills on it).
No water.
Must have 6 starting locations.
Must have a big flat wholesom portion without any obstacles.
Should provide as much different ways to play as possible while keeping it fun and playable.
Should look nice :).
If it is a metal map each mex must not give out more than 2 metal income (judging by the most played mod,ba).
The judges:
Forumers.
after all the maps will be submitted (1 week max),i will start a poll with all the maps as options and everyone will be able to vote based on their own subjective view of what is a good map.
The prize:
The wining map will be hosted for 24 hours on all of neddies servers except the KP ones.
Any map that will not comply with the Requirements will not take part in the contest(i suppose you can deviate from the Requirements a bit but not too much).
(the map must be a new one)

Re: Map contest
Well, if you give me a month, that allows time to procrastinate.
Re: Map contest
Why don't you just make it best map competition, give everyone a week, to put a link to their new map in a new thread, and let the forumers have a week or so to judge?
