Cool idea =) And some good follow up ideas, how will be the voting? Everybody? Or a predefined group of people? =)

I think 1 month for first round, then 2-3 weeks for second round is a good idea =)

EDIT, however, i dont like the idea about africa, i feel we got so many africa maps i personally would prefer to make other theater ;P what about free theater simply? ;P

that is also a good idea yes

[CptdeS35]

well i think that people need to know on which front they have to work...but yeah it can be cool

[Surfbird]

yeah,like making a "semi-final"  giving the mapper more time to prepare for a final or something, that could be Really interesting

Agreed. Good idea.

I'd also say that determing the theatre is the better choice, so you can compare the maps better. If everyone is doing something in another theatre, all maps might get interesting just because its unusual and different in comparance to the current map pool. Take Warsaw Uprising as example.

Not that I don't want every map in the contest to be awesome, but it makes it much harder to decide and less competition. With the same theatre the mapping skills of the individual probably get more obvious and makes due to that a lot more sense in a maping competition.

I personally favor Africa too, so I'd leave it like that Or go for Greece, that'd be awesome as well.

[pizzzaman]

So is this contest official?

[Ts4EVER]

Lol no

[pizzzaman]

Can it be?

[Ts4EVER]

Highly unlikely since most devs have their hands full with their own maps, so they can't baby sit random fan projects.

[pizzzaman]

Can we still post maps and compete?

[CptdeS35]

i think yeah, cause MAYBE (MAYBE MAYBE MAYBE MAYBE) the best map(s) would be implemented in FH2 one day maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe....
