Map Development Mini-Contest #2 [Hero Defense]

[DoOs_101]

Should the contestants who submitted their maps earlier be given an advantage?

I just think it is an unfair advantage to those who've not yet submitted their maps seeing as they have more time to revise the map if they're lying about it's progress.,,..

 

[JansiGX]

they are already in advantage as there maps are ready and they can improve them right now and have even better submission.

 

[scorpion182]

I think the contest is over...

 

[JansiGX]

not yet. it was extended for one week so 2 days are still left. That's enough for me to finish my work.

 

[Eccho]

Yeah, the final and absolute final day will be the 29nd of July 2009 23.59 GMT.
So around 1½ day to go

 

[DanThanh]

I can not stop him, hiss....

 

[JansiGX]

I still had some work left on this but since there is no time left I'm giving you my entry. I hope all noticeable bugs and leaks are fixed...
Enjoy!

[Handycombinder]

So the results?

 

[Kwah]

Have patience.

 

[DanThanh]

Not enough submissions, this contest is over

 

[JansiGX]

I guess hero defense theme wasn't that good after all.
less people would quit if extra 2 weeks would be given from the beginning
and what happen to Squdle? he was close to finish too, right?

but isn't 3 submissions enough

 

[scorpion182]

but isn't 3 submissions enough

agreed

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Damn it, why didn't I know about this contest, I would so have entered. I'm a saaaad panda.

 

[Eccho]

ragingspeedhorn, I thought you didn't come here that often

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Which is why I missed it!

 

[Malcous]

Only 2 submissions.

JansiGX and Scorpion182..

 

[Rowboat]

I vote for ... hmm... wait let me see those maps first And there is 3 if i remember correct.

 

[Malcous]

DanTanh has to many imports....

only 10 imports are allowed.....

 

[DanThanh]

Ragingspeedhorn, how are you? I miss you so much

 

[PurplePoot]

I'll hopefully get to judging sooner rather than later.

 

[scorpion182]

did i must update it to compatible with 1.24? coz the contest conclude before the new patch come out..

 

[Eccho]

if it is done in GUI and is not using any gamecaches, then there should be no difference.

 

[scorpion182]

unfortunately i'm using vJASS

 

[Eccho]

Well, I think it will be alright. Dont worry. In that case I am sure Poot will tell

Edit: There's a new 1.24 patch version on the westfall server. It looks like it has fixed alot of things. So, wait and see.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

So once you are finished judging, Poot, does this mean that a new mini-contest will start, or that another mapping contest will? Or neither?

 

[DoOs_101]

Takes that long to judge three maps?...

 

[PurplePoot]

Constantly put it off to do other things. Hopefully it will be done sooner rather than later, but quite frankly it isn't going to be my top priority if other stuff comes up.

To raging: No idea. I have no intentions of judging another one (didn't really want to do this one either; it was a last minute decision), so if someone else would then I would like to see another one done.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

If it is impossible to find a host, then you could instead host a third minigame contest? Those have so far been based solely on public poll anyway. Just as a (poor) solution to the problem if it is unsolvable.

 

[PurplePoot]

Well, there are only two entries (the third broke the import rule) and one of them has a dead pastebin link so I can't download it. Is this even worth judging/a poll/etc?

So which map is the last one? I mean still you need to award someone, that person with that ONE map took his time to make it, is not like you can just promise people then forget about it.

 

[PurplePoot]

I'll give the other guy a few weeks to resubmit, and if not the other one will get the reward.

[DanThanh]
