Confirmed: This is glorious to use.

Bump.

Round 2 has been extended an extra week (dates in OP) to line up better for SBB's recording of the final maps, to ensure the videos make it out before voting begins. We will also be hosting a public game night on the 1st of September (few days before voting begins) for everyone to try out the MP maps in actual matches.

That part was in the OP since it was first posted, however I did make attempts to make it clearer with a later edit. Sorry =|

Could be a good thing, since you were unhappy with its performance too. With luck they'll just refund you and you can get something else.

I've added a new "Additional Prize" for the competition: 5 Raffle Tickets for a final submission voted as having the most improvement over their Round 1 entry (separate poll will be in the Round 2 voting topic).

You're going to be releasing something people play, and even if you don't place in the top 3, you in particular are still getting a prize in the form of tickets. I could see a map of the quality of Ballyhoo winning, and while you're stuck with this project if you want to go on to Round 2, you can still refine the fuck out of it and probably get it comparable. Not to mention you'll probably qualify for 15 tickets by making it to the Outstanding Maps list. Scripted minigames are flashy and creative, but generally don't have the depth you can accomplish with a traditional map, and as you mentioned, they've never actually won these competitions. I believe aLTis' map is pulling so far ahead right now because it was the most complete of all entries. There's still more than a month to go. I've also just added another "Additional Prize" for maps voted on as having the most improvement over their Round 1 entry.

Nope, it's all about one project spread across 2 rounds.

Is anyone going to post @(SBB) Storm's video of this, or is that supposed to be kept secret?

This could actually be really cool; it has a few creative mechanics to it already. I'd love to see this polished up and more work done on the playing field.

Just under 2 hours left! Get it built to the extent that it loads up ingame and you can make it to Round 2.

Out of the current MP maps released for the contest, this was actually my favorite to play. I quite enjoyed the flow of it, but definitely a lot of refinement needed for that BSP.
