    The Lazy Mapmaker's Contest #2!

    [​IMG]

    Before anyone reads anything. I would like to show you all the overall winner of the last LMC (Lazy Mapmaker's Contest). Mallet's "Yellow" was simply amazing, and should be an inspiration to everyone. So without further ado, here are some pictures of the map.

    If you missed the link to download to see for yourself:

    Here it is.

    Rules of Contest:

    • Absolutely No Interlocking (Besides auto-locking doors/windowpanels)
    • Absolutely No Geo-Glitching (Interlocking objects with the map)
    • Absolutely No Infinite-Money-Glitch
    • You are required to use Foundry (sorry if you feel otherwise)
    • Entry must be submitted by August 20th.
    • Only allowed to post one map, so choose wisely
    • Floating Objects IS allowed
    • Applications must be put on the Submission Thread people...
    • Must complete application for contest properly.
    • Map MUST be competitive style (sorry, but it kinda slims down the judging)
    These rules are non-negotiable.

    IF for some reason, you cross these rules, you will be disqualified, sorry to be so strict.
    *The point just above, was made at 7:54 AM June 26th Central Time, USA.

    This contest is to see if we can create something without the use of advanced forging techniques...

    This contest is open to all applicants, the applications must be filled in the following format, and posted at the following thread: Submission Thread

    Application Format:

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

    User Name(s): Example text
    Map Name: (Name must link to map)
    Did you read and follow instructions: yes/no
    Do you prefer using advanced forge techniques: yes/no & explanation.
    *For help on getting your maps title posted correctly see the bottom of the page.
    *Note the application must be filled out in this thread

    -----------------------------------
    Also if you are in need of a Non-Money-Glitched Canvas on Foundry:

    Here you are =]


    Much thanks goes to Playerhata27 for creating a canvas real quick, since it's so hard to find one since the creation of money glitch xD

    Who will be judging?

    Considering the last LMC had a set list of judges, and only about half or 2/3's actually participated, I won't be compiling any list this time. I will simply be having those that are close to me help in the judging process. I know I can trust & respect their judgment.

    Who are the victors?

    Well there are four separate winners, under which is the prize that they will receive:

    The most playable map.

    The most aesthetically pleasing map.

    [​IMG]

    The most creative map.

    [​IMG]

    The best map overall.

    To view the winners of the last LMC:

    Click this link

    How do I get a map posted properly on the submission thread?

    The answer to that would be:

    1) Save map
    2) Put map on fileshare
    3) Go to Bungie.net
    4) Go to your halo 3 page
    5) Go to your fileshare in said page
    6) Click your map, copy the link of the map (at top of page)
    7) Go to this thread: Here!
    8) Then enter your map, in the following format:

    User Name(s): Example text
    Map Name: (Name must link to map)
    Did you read and follow instructions: yes/no
    Do you prefer not using advanced forge techniques: yes/no & explanation.

    9) When you post your map on the "Map Name" section, type in [noparse]Map name here[/noparse]

    Note from the creator of The LMC:

    I would just like to say that the last LMC had a few maps in there that were taking the term Lazy Mapmaker's a bit too literally. The other judges and I would like to see some serious competition this time around. I don't want to hand the bragging rights over to one person again.

    I think that sums that up...

    Thanks everyone for competing, and forge well =]


    Direct quote from Mallet, cmon now guys, don't let her...er...him...Win it so easy!

    I'm gonna enter and take it seriously this time. Last time I was just experimenting with asymetrical that changes to a symetrical map depending on gamtype. I plan to do the same thing this time, but only spawns change, not the geometry. Nice.

    i think it would be kinda cool if you made some trophy/medal pics for the winners so they can put them in with their sigs.

    Hm, I have a kenundrum.
    If I make a map, I cant help judge.
    I will see, if my map fails I'll throw it out.

    Hopefully people dont take the name too literally this time.

    I'm not the greatest sig maker, but if someone like MALLET made one, maybe Reynbow, I don't know, LockdownN perhaps? Someone who makes good sigs, pl0x make one

    Good idea phil, but I can't do it =[

    Maybe, but you should have checked it before release.

    =[

    Sure, there were maps that had some really weird gametype, but were still competitive.

    Just throw it out, you don't need to enter.

    =P

    Gahh...Sarge...the benevolent asshole...(That's a kind-hearted asshole Sarge...)If only you learned the spirit of Christmas...Maybe then you could be happy in this world...

    I am guessing you meant "Does anyone know how to put maps on forgehub."

    If so, there is a guide on how to do it in the original post.
