Well,

Right now I have been keeping a list of every person who says there going to sign up. But some have not checked in either on the ztkforums or by email. So the list total of people who have said they are starting is a bit iffy at best. But the head count right now is 21.

I am also trying to get a couple other sponsers. (this will change the logo placed on the map) So I can have a 2nd and 3rd prize.

Ill keep you guys posted.

Well this might sound untrue. But Im not really in the competition for the money. Sure its a bonus. But since I've been with the Snarkpit, for about 2 years now, I have been unable to come up with a map on my own (the exception being Cliff Complex which evolved from 3 previous maps).

So everytime theres a comp, I perk up since finally, I am told what to do so its easier for me. lol

Ooh smart, my suggestion wouldn't of been to make this contest so open ended though, virtually every de_ counter strike map is illegible for this contest, and I think a lot of people will just submit all their old maps in hope of getting some of teh monies, meaning people who've made maps specially for it in the alloted time frame might be cheated out.

That and I have a cool idea for a mountain range based map

I think DANS got a point there. Although the map would have to be within the guidlines of rules - meaning ppl would have to recompile with the logo and such. [addsig]

Well the theme is very original IMO because there arent too many maps out there that feature a mountain top of some sort. The logo isnt the biggest deal though. I mean, really, how hard is it to open your .RMF, insert a new texture and recompile? [addsig]

That doesn't sound like a very good prize to me. (the 3rd place prize, not the 200 bucks, that'd be nice).

Seriously, how is the space free if you have to put advertisements on it?

(it's not)

And if normal users of their server have to do that, then why the hell are they playing money? You either get advertisement or money, not both. . .

~sigh~ anyways, I wanna see your guy's maps when they're done, I'm sure they'll be amazing. [addsig]

I'm not going for any prize lol.

No where near the caliber as the people entering, nor do I have time to create these maps and tweak them to the point of near perfection. Also, then why did they specifically say free for a year if you normally don't have to pay for the service?

I was just commenting on the matter, so in the words of the hormone-ally challenged Vash: "Meh" lol

(sorry, man, I just had to lol . . . I know you'll think to look here because you're physic . . . lol ok ok sorry, Seriously I'm kidding.) [addsig]
