How do I submit my maps?
Simply create a map, submit it on our map submission forum and include in the thread that you wish for it to be entered in the competition! Submit as many entries as you want!
What are you looking for?
Specifically for this competition, the thing that matters most is quality. You have creative license to make whatever you please! We just need some awesome, beautiful, and fun maps. If you're looking for something closer to a rubric, here's what we'll be looking for:
- Quality
- Gameplay
- Uniqueness and creativity
- Level of challenge
- Simplicity
It is preferred that maps be no bigger than 100x100 to 150x150. This is simply a preference and is not mandatory for entries.
Awesome! How long do I have to create my masterpiece(s)?
You have 3 weeks to submit your map, meaning that the deadline for submissions for the competition will be NOVEMBER 16th
Anything Else?
Just keep in mind that all maps submitted will still be eligible to be accepted into the map rotation even if it does not win. If you have any questions regarding the competition, be it things such as where to put it or even how to upload the file, please feel free to contact me (Ogarci), or any of our staff in-game, on IRC or via forums.
BuildBox has been generous enough to allow everyone the use of plots for this competition! Just log on to BuildBox (smp.blocktopia.net:25569), type" /mvtp plots" followed by "/plotme auto" and build away!
