Competition entries

Ah! Sorry about Oderlies_v_Patients, the zip was inexplicably
corrupted. I fixed it now, and e-mailed Leperous about fixing the file.
If anyone is really desperate to play it, it's fixed in my profile.
Sorry for not believing you at first, BlisTer.

mkay np. maybe you had bad experiences in compos before but i was just trying to help.

Yaaa.

/me hugs.

On topic: I know that this has been brought up before but apparently not within the last 4 months as I was forced to request this thread unlocked.

How would everyone feel if we 1st, voted on a representing body to determine the winners and 2 have a site wide vote for these maps? Somehow, having them lost into abandoned obscurity seems a gross misconduct to me.

I would also request volunteers to write some review type pages for the event.

IMO, the very delay of this event precludes punishment to those who were tired of waiting and released their maps before the results and I feel no adverse penalty should be imposed on any entrant. Opinions?

Anyway, If the outlook seems favorable, perhaps we can get an admin to release the maps to the voted representatives????

I'm all for getting a winner selected, but alas I wont be able to help test and therefore can't vote.

I hope we can get things rolling though...

While i'm all for a 2006 competition, to start it up when not even finishing the 2005 one would be quite unfair to us :sad:

Gwil had some great intentions on finishing it by starting to put them
on the server. maybe a way to round it up is to organize playtests with
the judges and/or interested members. Since Lep isnt here a seperate
voting site might not be easy, so maybe just have an official poll in
general banter after the playtests?

Sounds like a plan to me, though I think we should only count votes made WITH a post confirming their vote, as otherwise it would be too difficult to judge the authenticity of the poll.

Well if someone is patient enough to create multiple accounts as to
vote more than once means that they're also patient enough to post 3 words
as to validate their (fake) votes.

How about having a thread to nominate judges?

But at least we can see who is voting - this contest is so late to be judged that the possibility of it pulling in new faces is highly unlikely, so if we DO see lots of new accounts springing up and voting, then something may be amiss.

Yeah, sorry about that - there's a couple of maps on there already but
nothing concrete. I've just been overwhelmed by starting university and
having a full timetable to cater for.

No nominations?
