"Show some Love for CTF" {Voting Closed: Results Are In!}

[Messatsu]

You could always weight the votes.  Judges are 4 points, Contestants are 2 points and guests are 1 point (or whatever).  Players rate their top 3 maps, the maps with the most points by the end are the winners. /shrug

6 PM works for me, I usually eat dinner around 5 and unless we go out for like ice cream or something then after 6 PM we won't be leaving to go anywhere. Yay the play testing is way sooner than expected. See you all that are coming there

Tomorrow or the day after for the start of our marathon is fine by me.

[Shade Guy]

I would only be available starting my Friday (which is everyone else's Thursday evening), though I am alright with missing two of the three sessions.

Can we play the CTF maps just for casual reasons?

[Jakeinator]

Even though it's been happening less often, When playing online sometimes it says connection interrupted, i can't move and my ping skyrockets up and sometimes becomes negative, so if that happens during this, i'm screwed. (not out of winning, but still that would suck)
EDIT: yeah, for all the maps that don't get in those maps should be put in a reject map pack.
EDIT2:Ivory, can you take my map out? i think it's not good enough to be played with like 500 people.

Just want to say that most of those maps seemed like so much effort was put into them. Kudos to all those mappers. I can't wait to see the other maps.

When voting begins, would you mind adding a rough description (or a screenshot) of each map? That way people could find "the map with the fans" or "that one cool Gemini Man stage" instead of having to look up codes or guess with generic-sounding map names.

[SmashTheEchidna]

Well, aside from the huge lag fest in the beginning, I'd say that went pretty well! I'm eager to join the next batch of maps tomorrow.

[Ivory]

@smashbro Yeah, I can do that.

Anyways, about voting.

Everyone will be allowed to vote. Voting occurs after the third set of maps. I'm only accepting votes from "regular community members". I.E. I won't count PMs from people I've never heard of.

You will be voting for 7 maps total. 1 grand prize winner and 6 additional maps to be accepted into the v3a (mm8) update. Contestants cannot vote for their own maps.

Just posting my thoughts on the maps we played today so I don't get confused and forget later when the time comes.

CTFC01 - Tunnel Network - Solid map, good weapon choices, floor to floor action is good. Only complaint is I wish it wasn't an underwater base cause we have like 3 of those rolling around now!
CTFC02 - Sacred Shrines - Good map except for one fatal flaw: Rain Flush is too easy to get. You end up just spamming it near the flag having a massive defense which stalls the game.
CTFC03 - Lost Temple - Nice map but I think it has too many easily accessible ripper weapons, making it VERY HARD to get the flag in it's flat room. There's also a few windows that you can't jump out of without dying that aren't too obvious. Also I never saw anyone go for the star crash, mainly cause it's too tricky for such a useless weapon in this open map.
CTFC04 - {Redacted}'s CTF entry - Fun gimmicky map but very cramped on the race track and the roaders simply cut off the only OTHER way to get to the flag. I would suggest either making the roaders damage you less (by copying the actor and reducing it) or have only one path cut off by roaders (each side).
CTFC05 - Sky Castle - This one was really fun! Lots of places to go etc, different paths to take. Only problem I think is that near the flag there's too many ways to easily nab it and get away, i.e just jumping off the ledge into the fans. Made it very hard to track down the one who picked up the flag. Otherwise, great!
CTFC06 - Crystal Crater - Very cramped map with a very hard to get flag. Because of this, I think star crash is too strong here. Layout seemed okay though!

Everyone will be allowed to vote. Voting occurs after the third set of maps. I'm only accepting votes from "regular community members". I.E. I won't count PMs from people I've never heard of.

Maybe say at least 250 posts?

[Hallan Parva]

I just thought of something.

Why the deuce isn't CutmanMike one of the main judges!?

[Kapus]

Joined the party late but still had lots of fun.

The sky castle map definitely has my vote.

[Jakeinator]

Maybe say at least 250 posts?

Does that mean i have to make 15 posts by Thursday?
