Personally i find tropical to big for 2 players.
Im not saying map is bad or any thing.
I have it on:
dm, 12 minutes, 2..8 players
ctf, 12 minutes, 2..8 players
tdm, 12 minutes, 2..8 players
htf, 12 minutes, 2..8 players
ktf, 12 minutes, 2..8 players
tktf, 12 minutes, 2..8 players
But if you want me to i will remove htf,ktf and tktf.
Just let me know.

Hello everyone , i was "AFK" during some weeks/months and there are some things that i didn't understand.
Can someone can make a list of curents map in competitions please cause i'm lost. (maybe someone should update the contest wiki please). Thanks.
And why the hell i can't vote ac_schematic2 on AC? (maybe an unknow key in the map name...)
And don't worry i'll post my entry soon ;)

I have mine blocked for uploading maps and voting maps not on server.
ac_schematic2 is downloaded and will be added to my servers maprot as soon as i know what mode maker made the map for.
I do not wanna «destroy» the map by adding it to modes its not made for, thats why its not uploaded/added yet.

That i can do.
I still like to know why it wasn't named the correct name.
This can also be the answer to .ExodusS* question.
Some can have added it to server with package as name.
Edit: You didnt say anything about players?
How many?
0..x
2..x
10..x
??

yes, but I'd like to think AC members are smarter than that.

I havent even looked at the map.
I dont feel its my job guessing what i should add to map rot.
If the maker dosent give that information i can leave it off my server.
I do want the maps made in the contest to be on server but i dont feel its my job to play the map/look at and guess what the maker had in mind.

@ Des. 6-12 players for my map, any mode. (3vs3/etc.etc. 6vs6)
@Elven No screenshots yet but don't get excited xD Its just a quick thing just to participate. Its basically a hedge maze though. Very barebones and simple. Pick-Ups in most dead-ends in an attempt to avoid frustration. (even though looking at the map can avoid any dead end problems, but yeah...)
I'll take some screenshots tomorrow if you want but there won't be much variety, since a hedge maze is...a hedge maze.

I've updated the archive.
The names are right, and a small error in the config is fixed.
I also added a readme with the mode information.
The map is more for the concept then any specific mode, I just wanted something universal.
It's pretty big, so one-on-one might not be a good idea, but fairly large numbers should work well.
I was leaning toward TOSOK around the time I made it, but TDM, DM, and LSS are definitely viable options for a good game on it.
Slight hiccup though, Mediafire is being a bitch at the moment, but I will have access to proper internet services tomorrow, so I'll be posting the updated archive then.
Until then, just rename the map and config files to ac_schematic2.

Opensource: Yes, you are probably right about it being a bit big for 2 players, feel free to bump it up to 4 minimum. I think remove HTF and TKTF, It's a bit too linear for them. KTF should work better.

Yesterday i looked on the list and saw the DES|Biohazard server and the map it had on was 'packages'.
When I finally got to joining the server; the map had changed to ac_greenpeace. I tried voting the map again in tdm and dm but it wouldn't allow me to set these modes. :/
- where can i download this map??

You can also vote for (I think) all of the competition maps on the {TBR} Dyfi server

Yeah, that one's mine. When I archived it, WinRAR renamed the files for some reason. But I fixed it, and you can get the updated archive here: http://www.mediafire.com/?hh2io54l9h7eyuu
Enjoy.

Updated my map to fix a couple spawning bugs. Also refined lighting. No cubes changed.
Same links, but:
You want .tar?
You want .zip?
No no .DS_Store

upload a .zip with a friendly zip program that will strip stupid platform generated trash.

@Ronald_Reagan I love _MACOSX files! MACS FTW! Thats why i use YemuZip, PeaZip, 7Zip, etc. so these needy windows users feel pleased :P

Oh dang, didn't realist how soon the deadline is.... Hope I finish my map in time :d
Btw, what timezone is this April 10th deadline..? Since my timezone is GMT +12, I'm wondering if I can submit this map I'm working on if I finish it on time on Monday...which is the 11th for me, but still the 10th for you (American/European players). :o

the contest isn't over until the last timezone has hit midnight
meaning if you wanted to submit using West Coast US time, you very well could :P
