8th Official Mapping Competition!

[Luc@s]

I knew about those two, I was more or less talking about any entries that would be posted in the future. Would they too be available for auto download features? I'm assuming yes

of course, as soon as we upload them.
We upload as many maps as possible... (291 so far)

[Pi_Halo]

Alright, that answers my question (and I'm sure future entries as well). Thanks for the timely reply.

[Z3R0]

@Z3R0: wtf

Didn't see this, thank you very much. :)

[Z3R0]

Oh, thank you! Thought you noticed something horrible in it, ahah.

[ExodusS]

Oh, thank you! Thought you noticed something horrible in it, ahah.

I've noticed 2 bugs and 1 thing that could be fixed. ;)

[Z3R0]

Working on the update now, found plenty of bugs and adding sounds. Pm me or something if you can, so I don't miss anything, cheers.

[Oracle]

How many entries are there in total? 2? (Does RKTnoob's count?)

Have you already seen every single map?
Wait until you've seen mine, it's by the way only with standard content my map, changes a whole lot :)

For those who are curious about my map.
If you want to know the theme/location... Take a closer look to the date 133 B.C. ;)

[ExodusS]

Have you already seen every single map?

Trust me, Z3R0's map is really at the top quality, actually there are less than 10 maps at this level.

[MathiasB]

That's your opinion exodus, but for me there are a lot of maps that are better than ac_pompeii. (not that I want to say I'm a better mapper).

In my opinion your maps are better than ac_pompeii...

[Oracle]

If you want to know the theme/location... Take a closer look to the date 133 B.C. ;)

Siege of Numantia?

[MathiasB]

Siege of Numantia?

Pretty close :)
But it's not a siege, the date refers to something that happened with a location.

I'll post an image today :)

[Pi_Halo]

I'm guessing something to do with the Roman Emperor

[MathiasB]

Roman people is correct. But it's not an event :)

[Pi_Halo]

I was more or less talking about the city of Rome during that time frame, not a specific event.

[MathiasB]

Today I'll release the map!

The place where you'll be fighting in is a city like this, in a region where 133BC is an important date:)


(pictures is from Syria, which is not where it occurs :) )
(and the map will of course not be that detailed or ruined, this is the cube engine...)

[Oracle]

Is it found on this page? :P

[#M|A#Wolf]

The kingdom of Pergamon?

[MathiasB]

Is it found on this page? :P

Yes

The kingdom of Pergamon?

And (almost) Yes. More info will follow very soon!

[Oracle]

"The kingdom of Pergamum is deeded to rome"
^
Dat it?

[MathiasB]

Yes!
Even more, whole Asia Minor :)

So here is my entry for the 2013 mapping contest...

---

It’s 133B.C., the Romans have attached Asia Minor to their empire. A new ‘provincia’ is born and lots of rich citizens are going to exploit the region under the lead of the ‘propraetor’.
One of those patricians starts building his own Greek-like polis, somewhere on one of the most deserted places of Anatolia. But not every patrician has the same amount of money and goods, and so his new polis becomes a very small polis built with cheap materials.
The patrician dies, while his city isn’t yet ornamented with marble or painted. It consist just of bare, brick constructions. Lots of materials are still inside the boxes waiting to be unpacked and to be used to decorated the polis.
But as their leader died, a Babylonian chaos was born, and no one had the power to finish the polis. One by one all its citizens went away to find their happiness in other places. And soon the desert starts to dominate the Agora of this small Greek Polis!

I'm afraid that due to serious health problems I will have to step down from the judge position.

Don't want to play the drama queen here so if any wonder I'll explain only via PM.

[PhaNtom]

Hope you get better Cleaner.

Does he have to be replaced with another judge?

[Oracle]

I nominate Aight.

[ExodusS]

I nominate ExodusS.

[PhaNtom]

I nominate ExodusS.

Why are you so self-centered?

[ExodusS]

Why are you so self-centered?

Actually it's you who are centered on me, my post was obviously sarcastic.
Plus on a more serious way, I've downloaded all maps and tested it on the SVN, saw it in all possible pov etc...

[Pi_Halo]

Most previous contest had 4 judges anyways. It is not exactly needed to have 5 judges. If anyone actually wants to be useful and be a judge, they can contact Snoosnoo who is the chairman of this mapping contest. Other then that, lets try to keep at least one thread around here slightly on topic and not full of mess. Hope you will get better Cleaner, take the time off and rest.

[RKTnoob]

Nah, I pulled my entry out, so it doesn't count, even if the map itself rocks like roll ^_^
