Contest at tl

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=110095

Hey, mapping contest over at tl for a tourney (nothing huge). Templar already made a map for it, and I think neobowman was interested too. You can be sure I'll make something for it eventually. I better see all of you guys atleast putting in an effort, this is a great way to show off our mapping prowess to the sc community without appearing greedy.

We need more people since there aren't many contestants yet it seems.

Of course, they could all be lurking until the last minute to post.
2010, 01, 17 22:36
I've found that hoping for lurkers to post last minute submitions in a mapping contest is on par with hoping your opponent has to leave in a ladder game and just quits giving you a win. ie, it's very nice on paper but don't hold your breath for an instant.

It's being spammed with so many low quality maps and I'm not sure if the judges will be able to tell the difference.

eyecandy maps have a chance imo

So just get Testbug to make a map?

I mean, just ANY map.

mmm, yes you're right

He's putting to a vote, so basically it's going to be 90% D level TLers voting on what jpeg they think looks the prettiest. I laugh at his suggestion to play the maps and then vote. That never happens.

Pretty bullshit that he need 5-6 days to make an OP. Literally he's probably just going to do nothing for 5 days, and then be like 'oh fuck, I need to do this' and pull it together in a half hour. GRRR.

My map is a joke, but I'm offended on behalf of people who probably put hours into their map and have made his thread a success.

Psycho your attitude is a joke. Husky stated he had RL things to do for ~4 days after the end of the contest. Why don't you be patient jesus christ. He also said the vote ESSENTIALLY MEANS NOTHING and he is the one with the final judgement. Quit being a fucktard wow. You even have to flame him on BWM... sad.

lol yeah IK what u mean, people vote on maps made by first time mappers, that is such a huge mistake. If any of those maps get picked players will probably fined many noob errors, and fined that they are unplayable.

That's funny lezerg, your map Pixy's Wish has tons of pathing issues and bad mineral only placement that blocks a square where cc/nex/hatch should go.

Those are hardly mistakes. Pathing issue is near impossible to fix with a map like his and mineral lines can easily be changed, compared to the newbie maps where their concepts are usually impossible to work out.
2010, 02, 10 22:19
Usually all neutral buildings create some type of pathissue, and with my neutrals I was just going with the theme 4 the contest. About the mineral only : I actually have played the map a good number of times ( And so have other people ) and I do know what you mean about the mineral placement, it does give a felling (In the game) that its not tight enough, but open the map and see 4 urself ( In scmdraft) and you will see, if you bring a start location near the mineral only the placement is actually good. Its hard and long 2 explain but open up and fined out.
Il leave it at that, but I can explain with + depth if you want 2 know the problem with maps made by a first timer.

lezerg wins this contest no doubt about that :d the other maps are so fucked up :D except P4e's desert map and Rhine
