MAPDRAFT (x_x)

[Rose]

Just so no one gets confused, I feel the need to clarify this whole thing (because honestly, if I didn't know what was going on, I'd be totally lost, but I might just be retarded, but anyway...)

Normally, we'd only have three people making packs. But in this round, there was a three-way tie for third. So in this round only, there are five people making packs. Hope that makes sense.

This makes no sense to me...

1st) Sayko
2nd) Life
3rd) Erik, Numa_Ninja, and Apse
4th...?
5th...?
Everyone listed in the top three spots get to make a pack. Usually it's only 3 people in the top three, but this round there are 5. So 5 people make a pack.

On another note, when will Round 4 begin? Whenever all 5 above submit there packs?

A third note:

Your "Oh so very" Lonely Basement by Im_bad_at_N
Booster
15 Tiles Of Your Choice
20 One-way Platforms
1 Floorguard
10 Mines
30 Gold
1 Locked Door

I never made this map pack, neither the title nor the objects. Was there a mixup, like the authors got switched, within the last two rounds?

[lukesv]

Round four?

[Rose]

I'll talk to flag and ChrisE and get Round 4 going as soon as possible.

No idea. It might have been incorrectly attributed to you way back in the old mapdraft contests. Or maybe I or ChrisE was organizing and somehow made that mistake? Anyone know who actually made that pack?

[ChrisE]

Sorry, I've been busy doing... stuff.

I'll send out the packs tonight (GMT time), hmm, I'll check the origins of the mystery pack.

EDIT: It's actually Erik-Player's. Sorry, iban. My mistake.

[Pig2]

Will I be able to join in next round?

[ChrisE]

Will I be able to join in next round?

Sure. Added Pig2 to the list of participants, and all packs have been mailed out.

Maps are due by 00:00 GMT on Sunday 15th May, so you have ten days.

Good luck.

Thanks a lot! It's been bugging me since I've first seen it, so I'm glad it has been figured out.

If it is not too late I would like like to participate in MAPDRAFT.

As long as you have a numa account.

He does.

I'm not sure if you can join this round, but I'll talk to ChrisE. In any case, you'll be in starting from at least the next round, and I'll put you on the list in the OP.

[ENT474]

Hold him! He`s almost in our secret lab with the new meat-eating plants, which like the meat of genetic clones above 60 years! by brainstone
Rule
The exit must be in a little room, which contains At least five enemies. IF you have
got less than five enemies in your packs, you`ll gain up to five enemies of your
choice.

Do mines count?

[Rose]

Well, brainstone made the pack, but he doesn't seem to be around anymore, so we can't really get clarification from him. So sure, mines count.

[fingersonthefrets]

I've seen this a bunch and always thought it was pretty cool but haven't participated. Haven't made a map in ages so i figured I may as well sign up this. So count me in (for round 5). Just so I have some idea, how long does it usually take between ends of one round and the start of the next?

Mappers get two weeks to make a map, and it takes about a week to judge them. Though I don't know why the can't just judge the maps as they're posted.

[Rose]

Usually less than a week, I think. It takes flag and ChrisE a couple days to judge, then we wait a day or two for the winners to send in their packs.

Because then people couldn't edit their maps without the judges having to play them again.

Hmm, I suppose. I don't mind waiting either. I've a mappack to make.

He'll be added Round 5, along with FOTF.

Good to see even more participants. :D
