Since number-based criteria are very limiting, especially for art contests, the judge will instead determine a score out of 100 for each entry based on, well, how good it is. To make things easier on the judges, here are a few things to look at: Theme, Style, Originality/Concept, Execution, Atmosphere/Effect.
  • 50 % of the winner shall be determined by the contest's appointed judge(s).
  • 50 % of the winner shall be determined by the results of a public, unbiased, uninfluenced, unmultiaccountfriendvoted poll.


Contestants List:

Everybody. BWAHAHAHAHA!!! NOW YOU'RE OBLIGED!!!!!!

IMO. Void judge. That needs to happen. I have no idea if I'll join.
Good day.

What you're saying is that.. number systems are limited, is this why you're using a /100 score...?

No, using numbers in categories is limited. How the fuck do you accurately judge, in one category, how good something is?

Damn you Phoonix, I was making the same thing!
Oh, well, I don't really care if we both make it, though.
 
i wanna see some wips so i can steal some ideas >:D

I was thinking about that, but i am going to let you post your terrain first, becuase when you copy all the special stuff from the WIP's and put it together and make it look better, i will steal from yours combined terrain that you stoled from the other terrains! :D

muhahahahhahaahah

Well, I just hit a major roadblock. My terrain was almost at a point where I could post a preview of it when, guess what, my old computer, with all my (un-backed-up) World Editor files on it, died, just like that. I've taken it to a store so that they can at least recover the hard drive, and I just loaded Warcraft 3 onto my new computer. However, my old computer was a mac, and my new computer is a PC. Thus my new computer is unable to read files from my old computer, and now I have to 1) load TFT onto my computer, 2) download UTM, and 3) redo the whole f***ing thing. Basically, what I'm saying is, you'll probably not see or hear anything from me for a while.

(By the way, colored text owns.)
