That has actually been the plan the entire time, rendering the poll kind of irrelevant. Eight maps every week would've been a pain in the ass.

So here is how the next round is going to work:

You receive only four new packs.
Take the four you decided not to use from the previous round for a total of eight.
Pick four to actually make your map with.

The only reason you were even sent eight in the first place was so that we could try the above system, so we are going to for at least one round before changing anything again.

Since I was going to wait to explain that particular tidbit until announcing the pods on Sunday, I will just do that now as well.

Grats on your 2nd place, Mae, your map was amazing. I'd have thought it won, but uh well.

I see I got the Runner-up in my pod. Great! I'll make that one map pack right away and PM it.

Is Wounded Breakfast by Senseschal some kind of joke? Because it turns out that no one on NUMA or the forums goes by the name Senseschal. After some quick research, it turns out that Wounded Breakfast is a poem by Russel Edson, and Seneschal was a title for officers in the houses of important nobles in the Middle Ages.

Nonetheless, I'm psyched that I get to make two packs.

alright 3 packs!

I just noticed this, I don't know if it's important or not, but is the weekly random award eliminated?

Yeah, Wonder why? I really liked the random awards.

Oh and am I the only one that didn't get my packs yet? Just wondering.

http://nmaps.net/user/karmap0lice · Postby **karmap0lice** » 2009.05.19 (02:10)

Yeah, I won! :D congrats to everyone else, this round was a good one

I don't understand what I won :(
Did I win the option of chosing 3/4 packs of my choice for my next map? and did I win the option to create 1 new pack, or a group of 4 packs? the prizes have been removed on the front page, so I lost track :(

You create 1 pack of your own for three of the four categories of your choice to be added to the pack list.

We're going to wait to split people into pods until submissions have been closed this time, since only about half of the members turned in round 3 maps. That way we wind up with a pod with only three actual maps to judge again.

Also, if you won a prize, you come up with your own pack ideas, and send them to me or Palemoon. Preferably Palemoon since I can't edit them into the OP.

http://nmaps.net/user/sneekfeet · Postby **goatman** » 2009.05.19 (04:32)

Well. I came second. Yay. *satisfaction*

My packs now come long and flowing like a bleached brunette.

Rule: Bipolar Twitching
While playing your map, you may not use any other button but the jump button. Essentially, your map is jump only.

Booster: Popsickle
30 'Five' Tiles
5 Floor-guards
10 Gold

Tiles: It Looks Like A Sunflower!
45 'Four' Tiles

Am I jumping in this round or the next? Either way, I don't have packs. PALEMOON said he would add me, but didn't.

I need packs aswell, I suppose they'll be up once they wake up over in the Americas...

Will everyone please relax, this is a rough time of the year for high schoolers with finals and things may run slowly.

Give them two weeks and things will be running smoothly again.

http://nmaps.net/user/ · Postby **shiprelation_** » 2009.05.19 (13:37)

I'm still in the Contest right? Sorry I didn't make last round, I got Poison Ivy all over my body and couldn't get on the Computer :( Well I hope to enjoy this next coming round :) When do we get are map packs? And yes FINALS are VERY busy, SO S.T.O.P Rushing them....

No, you're not :(

Btw, can I create any type of pack (i.e.: Tiles, booster)? Should all packs be of a different type, or am I allowed to create, say, two rules?

Ahem. That would be me.

Do we have to make a pack(s) if we come top 3 (or runner up, as in my case), or is it optional?

it's totally optional. Don't worry about it if you don't want to. I'll make some instead.

Also, in other news, i sent out the packs to everybody who is participating!

now, here's something special this round--

remember how you got 8 packs last round and threw away 4 of them?

You receive only four new packs.
Take the four you decided not to use from the previous round for a total of eight.
Pick four to actually make your map with.

Good luck, and have the fun times!
