Might join. I guess I'll be the scripter guy, I have lots of experience in that. Anyone interested?
I do Jass/vJass. I also do some modeling. =P
I can do everything, ranging from advanced stuff to simple movement with arrow keys control, or whatever should be put into the map.
DevineArmy, wanna team up?

Snowboarding map. Our idea ... Don't you take that from us.
Also, about the reward, is that like 40 rep each or 20 each for the winner? (just wondering)

In the previous the contest had a 25 rep price in second place, and I just got 25 rep for being second. So it's not shared, you both get the amount as far as I know.

Also I might be interested in teaming up with somebody that knows advanced scripting, if you use Jass it's your call but I can't read jass.
I can only make GUI triggers, I can fix the leaks in it etc.
I'm at my best creating terrains and thinking.

I re-iterate so that it is on this page.

Does pinball count as a sport? (Trax?)

In my opinion everything that requires movement is a sport, ranging from fighting arts to ball sports like soccer.
And they even call racing a sport. Well if racing is a sport then paint ball should be as well, cause it requires body movement and is uber and yeh.

Walking to the fridge <3

It's the human snowboarder, the footy.

Can we add... Some new stuff to it? Like perhaps a paint mortar or a paint grenade... I mean this is Warcraft lll after all @_@ It will be unique from other gun maps we promise and resemble the sport :p I'm thinking like you pick up the weapon in the middle of the map or something so you can't start with it. Would encourage people to be more aggressive. You think that would be ok?

If you would like us to strictly stick with regular guns, that would be fine, perhaps we could add in another fun mode and you just score it without the additions.

Hmm, need to think of a sport. Or else I could default to soccer.
hmm.

Nah soccer looks hard to create in Wc3, next to that it's one of the most lame sports ever invented...
Hardly requires skill, I have played it. xD

You just run to the ball, you kick the ball towards somebody close or to the goal of the enemy to try and score.
All you need is stamina and good eye-feet coordination.

I don't think it'd be too hard to make.

I have played soccer too, it's hard to be really good, though it is also hard to be horrible as long as you have, like you said, decent eye-feet coordination and some stamina. But this isn't a sports argument thread.

EDIT: Keep the sword, being able to attack other snowboarders would be pretty kickass. Tauren should snowboard on his totem. The sentry could snowboard on one of the huntress shields. Undead guy could snowboard on a human's dead body. Just some ideas.

Ideas are such fun, I have plenty of them for a sport game. :p
I agree it's hard to be a pro, but that's for 9/10 sports.

For some reason, I doubt you have any of those skills. Soccer > 2 x You.

Sorry if I offended you :p not everybody think the way I do. xD
I'm more of the tennis and martial arts kind of guy when it comes down to sports.
Anyway like Sabertooth said, no point for a discussion.

So who wants to team up and create a map about a naga swimming contest while trying to dunk in the football goal!!! o_O
