The point of this contest is really very simple. There will be a pool of 'Packs', that will contain instructions on how you create your maps for this contest.

Each round, each player will receive Four (4) different RANDOMLY SELECTED Packs to make their map with. You MUST make your map with EXACTLY what the packs dictate, or else i will hand you your ass be very upset, and judge you down for it.

Packs can contain anything and everything, like Objects, Tiles, and even special rules that you must follow when you are making your maps.

Here are several examples of Packs, just so you know what to expect (although you probably are expecting these. Or are you? the mysteries continue):


------------------------------

15 ‘Five’ Tiles
5 ‘Four’ Tiles
Up to 20 ‘E’ Tiles

Of course, some packs have even wackier object sets and more bizarre rules, so you must be ready for anything well i mean you can relax because no elephants are going to trample your dog but still you might want to be prepared!

There are more details about the different pack types and a comprehensive list of packs further down this wonderful curvaceous post dat ass.

Well, it's simple! Post in this thread saying you'd like to participate, and when we get enough Players we can get started!

and here's the part where we get serious:
Last time was incredibly loose as far as deadlines and restrictions go but this time i am really becoming an anal-retentive asshole more concerned about the organization of something like this so we're going to do it this way:

-Registrations will be restricted to BEFORE the round begins. Drop-Ins are not allowed. They were cool and all but i was forgetting who signed up when and i left some people out in the cold. and i don't want that to happen again because that's just absolutely fucking awful


this is important: due to the rather large (80-something) amount of people we got playing last time
I'm going to separate you all into pods of 6-10 people again for organization.

Each POD (not the band) Will:

- have 6-10 people
- be judged seperately
- there will be awards for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, as well as 2 bonus runner-up awards in each pod. This means 5 out of 10 will be winning something.



I will PM each of you with your four Packs that you must create your map with. After that, you will have until the deadline to create your map!
and remember,
If ANYTHING doesn't make sense to you, ask me some questions. I will answer them and then add the fruits of our discourse to the FAQ.

THESE RULES MAN, THESE RULES

I. The Exit, Exit Switch, and Ninja will not be in any packs. Please place them yourself.

II. If you miss a deadline, you won't be eliminated or anything, but you cannot participate in the judging, and so you'd lose your chance at some cool prizes. Don't do that.

III. The point of the contest is to see what you can do with bizarre amounts of objects and tiles. Try to use all of them! Hiding objects you don't like outside the map or in tiles will make me INSANELY ANGRY

IV. Follow The Rules

V. Don't talk about THE GAME

VI. No NReality.
