(oh and you should have a catagory for bots as well.)
Maybe i will add more promotions.

no i didnt meen you as in you, m. i ment do the ppl entering have to make a new map or can they use one they already have?

No offence, but I think you need to get judges first, because if you don't have them you will have a sh*te load of work. I didn't uunderstand alot of what you mean.

"2. The best 3rd objects in a map."???

"3. The organizator of the contest can not participate in the contest."??? - I don't understand why you put this in, because you are the one running it.



No offence, but I think that mine was better. NE ways, I won't be entering.

Darac:The ppl can make new maps or they can put an exisitng if they want.
Flangan:
"2. The best 3rd objects in a map."???

uh huh.... well next mapping contest, who ever does it, i think you should have to make a new map, or enter a map that hasnt been entered into a contest before. cause other wise its just going to be the same result over and over.
good contest M

I agree. SMG might host one, if we get off our lazy as$es and organise it later. I don't think entering other people's maps without their permission is legal M. You really shouldn't touch other peoples stuff except to play it or review it without their permission.

entering other people's maps without their permission is legal M
Oh i didn't know. I added more maps because there wasn't many ppls inly you and liquid x snake.And i dedicated to add more maps.

uh...uve got a lot of catagories.

lol.. good obsuvation phylent, at least i won one... lol

But if you add someones map, you have to ask them. If I had said nothing and you added my maps, I would have been f u c k i n g pissed off. That is why I get peoples permission before I review one on my site.

i won for best "3rd".. dah i mean THREE-DEE objects!! woohoo.. too bad i was the only nominee... who cares! whooooohooooooooo

liquidis - your maps are too much centered on visuals, and not enough on gameplay.

yes... to many bugs and no bots as a result of you making pritty pictures in maps, you may as well just draw them.... id say thats the main thing stopping you from being in the smg

lol... the bot thing, thats been said before, i cant bot for beans. x__x . play my factory map. that has what, one flashy thing in it.

i still found bugs in it though snake, like boucy bugs... and i fell in to pollygons ect.

the bouncy bug was fun i decided to leave that in for the sake of my friends. LOL. it was considered my patented "bounce house". as for the falling through polygons.. for every man you fall through not-so-thick polygons which sucks because using thin ones are important for layout and stuff.

well you still have to think about these things when you make maps... there are always limitations to map making at the moment. (i dont know about the new map format) you always have to make maps with in those limitations. other wise everyone will make maps that look really really good, but dont play well, and if your going to do that... then you may as well be in art class.
