Dusk you still have Oziris in submissions list. I vote for raid as said before.

Here is my vote:

No: 3 \Naze (Looked realy nice, the whole tower/dungeon. The wall was great, nice usage with the barred wall for windows.) release py xD
No: 2 ~Void~ (The walls with the statues looked awesome)
No: 1 raid1000 (I just loved the bridges)

What I didn't like at some where the locked cameras, too dark envirnoment. The theme was wonderland? Wasn't it? However it can be defined in a couple of ways so it was kinda okay.

Rising_Dusk · Jan 20, 2009

Fixed. I originally just copy pasta'd the post Gilles had made, didn't even read it. Thanks.

RolePlaynGamer · Jan 20, 2009

Mr. Goblin: Very nice, indeed. I especially liked the atmosphere.

/Nace: This one was also very good. However, there was a few pathing issues.

Nbah: The buildings had a weird scaling and it lacked atmosphere.

Raid1000: Kickass terrain.

TerraNexx: Kinda boring, only trees and blizzard cliffs.

Slaydon: Trees all over, thousands of those flower thingys. Nothing fancy.

~Void~: Very nice. Very nice.

My vote goes to ... Raid1000!

Why? I loved it.

May the best submission win.

bounty hunter2 · Jan 20, 2009

Now you all can concentrate to the voting and may the best win =)

Nbah · Jan 20, 2009

Yup, may the best terrainer win!

PS: Thankzi ^^

~Void~ · Jan 20, 2009

Did anyone who tested my submission notice HT or frostwhisper? They're both there

bounty hunter2 · Jan 20, 2009

I noticed HT on the North west corner when I passed the walls you made so nicely. He was at the portal thingy.

Chief-Oblivion · Jan 21, 2009

/Naze 5/5
Loved it.. i freaking loved it.. but I have to say i liked raids more.. =( Nice job tho

Nbah 4/5
Don't get me wrong.. it looked great.. but that is ALOT of doodads and it lags rather badly.. nice job but raid's got ya beat..

Raid 6/5!
Lol what can i say this terrain was freaking perfect you used mad amounts of doodads but i love how you turned floating iceburgs into a staircase and how you made the water into a slide down the mountain thing.. it was great my vote goes to you =D

Terra 2/5
As much as I admire you trying without the custom skins.. I just didnt like it all that much.. Nice try tho

Slaydon 2/5
How you can fit over 7000 doodads in a small corner of the map i don't know.. but honestly.. not much for it..

Void 5/5
Once again.. loved it.. but raids creativity and time consuming work payed off.. =( good job.. tho.. looks nice..

lol go go vote for yourself =)

Wolf. · Jan 21, 2009

My votes were tied at Raid1000 and Void... I really love Raid's construction with doodads and stuff, I'd never have the patience to do that... but I also love Void's atmosphere and stuff. It gets repetitive after a while (void's, I mean like the trees and stuff) but the construction is also really good.

I think i'm gonna give void the vote though because his was more original (the lighting). And because he's my friend who showed me this site (although that shouldnt matter D

~Void~ · Jan 21, 2009

Hm. Thanks for the vote, buddy, but you go to my school. That's the same IP as me (or at least sometimes). If it's sanctioned, will I still get that vote removed? (and yes it is sanctioned)

WILL THE ALMIGHTY · Jan 22, 2009

Vote from your home computer?

(insert shitstorm here)

Gilles · Jan 22, 2009

Right now your IPs seem to be different. I trust you anyways, there should be no problem. Although Wolf, just leave out the being a friend part next time. :\

Belgarath · Jan 22, 2009

OMG HE BRIBED HIM WITH DOLLARS. I was expecting something like that

At least this poll is going rather quietly...

Naze · Jan 22, 2009

True, we need more votes... =/

Correction

bounty hunter2 · Jan 22, 2009

Slaydon got voted for? Hmpf I sense...

Gilles · Jan 23, 2009

A pity vote? I've done it.

~Void~ · Jan 23, 2009

It doesn't matter, he could have like 50 votes and still not win. No offense of course, but his terrain is not very good at all.

Belgarath · Jan 23, 2009

Pity votes are nice I think. I think I did it in one contest...

raid1000 · Jan 23, 2009

~Void~ is coming up fast >.<

Nbah · Jan 23, 2009

Eek, fierce battle for first and third place. DAMN YOU MR. GOBLIN!

Mr.Goblin · Jan 23, 2009

yeah i got an other vote! strangly i had six last time D:

people don't know about the poll restart

Gilles · Jan 23, 2009

You can always tell people about the poll, just be sure not to advertise in a way that pulls towards voting for you.

Belgarath · Jan 23, 2009

Hey guys, come look at this poll!!
Fine print: VOTE FOR ME.

Don't forget that there's still judging to come ;D
I think I may even do mine rather soon, so as to not spend 1 and a half hours crunching my ass through 20 terrains like in the last one, 1 comment per section + overall comment >_<

Naze · Jan 23, 2009

We were a bit lucky this contest.

To see the entries, you have to download and play them, not only see some pictures. However, we've got only 7 entries, which makes things easier!

Belgarath · Jan 23, 2009

Yes, true. And good thing is I hardly ever terrain anymore, except on playable things... I make them so much it's sad. :>

Naze · Jan 24, 2009

Yes, if I could sell the effort you put on your entry, Bel... Perhaps I could buy... huh... a lipstick.

bounty hunter2 · Jan 24, 2009

Seems Void and raid are battling for No1 @ public poll =)

Belgarath · Jan 24, 2009

That must be a very expensive lipstick naze. I half-assed that so half-assidly.
:>

Gilles · Jan 24, 2009

I can't judge until I get wc3 back on my computer. I don't seem to have any CDs at my house, so I'll go get some from a friend. Unless everyone is fine with Belgarath being the only judge.

Belgarath · Jan 24, 2009

Isn't famous judging too? I was thinking that 3 judges would be quite cool. If I'm the only judge, I'll put a lot more effort into it, ofc.

~Void~ · Jan 24, 2009

Just a random question Naze how do you pronounce your name? Is it like Nazi but with an E or is it like Haze with an N? Or what?

Belgarath · Jan 24, 2009

One thing: Profiles.

Hmm, not a lot of people posted screenshots, but when they did, not a lot took them from game camera angle...

void, I think it's Naizz, like Haze.

Mr.Goblin · Jan 24, 2009

i did D: .. but its the wrong post you took... i mean.. it IS the good post you took, cause the one with screenshots.. the map had some custom skins in it.. so

Belgarath · Jan 24, 2009

You did? Must've overlooked >_>

Huh... It is like Haze with an N... Why? lol

Yeah, you made me smile with that question, lol

~Void~ · Jan 24, 2009

I was just wondering. Goddamn, raid got another vote >:[

bounty hunter2 · Jan 24, 2009

11:10 seems that the Judges votes will be the decisive ones.

Belgarath · Jan 24, 2009

Obviously :>
I'll ask famous if he's judging and then see if Gilles can judge, but I'm fine with being the single judge too.

bounty hunter2 · Jan 24, 2009

More judges guarantee it to be more fair.

And raid takes the lead by 12 to 10

Naze · Jan 24, 2009

I got 3 votes!

FamousPker49 · Jan 24, 2009

I'll try to judge. Don't wait up for my drunk ass tho.

Belgarath · Jan 24, 2009

Lol famous. Do it now so you don't have to do it later.

Naze, wooo!

bounty hunter2 · Jan 24, 2009

Squiggy voted for Slaydon. lol

Naze, wooo!

That's like ultimate procrastination. Double negative. I'm going to do it now because I can't be assed to do it later.

Belgarath · Jan 25, 2009

Not really, it's more like "do it now so you don't have to do it later" or share the work load over time.

Naze · Jan 25, 2009

huh... I don't feel like doing it and today I'm totally busy!

Waa-hoo!

(thanks God I'm not a judge at this contest)
