Metanet Forums

*Slightly inspired by PARADIGM SHIFT II

Here is how it works...
-We start off with 1 theme, and 1 anti-theme. The anti-theme is something that you can not do.
-Players submit maps based on theme and anti-theme.
-After 5 maps are submitted, the current judge/theme-adder picks the best, most-fitting map for that theme.
-The chosen person becomes the current judge/theme-adder, and adds another theme. The anti-theme does not change! The previous judge becomes normal again, and can now submit a map for the next round.
-The themes keep adding on until there are too many, lets say 5 for series 1.
-Try to start off with a very broad theme, like "simple" or something, because remember: the themes will keep adding on, and making the maps narrower and narrower in theme. I will pick the anti-theme. If I am unavailable, continue using the anti-theme from the previous series.
-Once there are too many themes, like said above, all judges/theme-adders get prizes.
-The game then resets with a new series

Also, I can will usually submit an example map for each round to give an idea!

Q&A
Can I submit a map if I am the judge? Of course not.
What happens when I become judge? You have become judge because your map has been chosen by the previous judge. Pick a theme and it will be added on to the previous themes. After 5 more maps are posted, pick a map that is the best and best matches all the themes, and doesn't break the anti-theme.
I don't get the anti-themeIt is basically the opposite of a theme. It is something that you can NOT do in the current series. Like if the anti-theme is "Gold" then you can NOT place gold in your map. The anti-theme applies to the current series.
When can I join this contest?Anytime! Unlike other competitions like Apt, there is not a specific set of people involved. You join whenever you want, it doesn't have to be in a certain round.
Can I submit a map in multiple rounds?No, you can only submit a map to one round. Also, it is recommended to make the map after viewing this competition, instead of using a previously made one.
What happens if I submit a map after 5 maps have been submitted for the round?Unfortunately, it is disqualified. This is the one exception where you can submit it for another round, since it has never been judged.

I will start off as the judge/current theme-adder.
***Make sure to look at theme list below!


[align=center]SERIES 1
Anti-Theme: More Than One Floorguard (You can use 1 floorguard, or none)
Theme 1: Simple (A map that is simple in gameplay and idea)
Theme 2: Action-Packed (A map with a ton of action, maybe rockets or turrets)
Theme 3: One-Way Fun (Add some fun one-ways)
Theme 4:
Theme 5:[/align]

Here is an example for round 1, series 1. It matches all current themes (simple) and does not break the anti-theme of more than 1 floorguard. Actually, it has NO floorguards.

Mercuri won!!! Mercuri, time to add a theme to the list. (The antitheme will remain the same.) Keep in mind that we already have a theme of simple, so try to make the next theme broad like simple, but a tiny bit more narrowed down, since we are progressing. This theme will add on to all other themes.

I call subbing a map in the next round!!!!!
:P

damn it i was too late. i just finished the map aswell. ohwell, ill post it anyway, then next round ill try to actually submit a map for. sorry, ive been really busy and last night i was making 2 maps at once and talking to zoas on IRC.

ok guys here you go

btw, Leo,
just a quick question, you have the fully right to modify the new theme added by the new judge and theme adder each round?

Entering the contest again, I think this map is a bit better than the first:
