    Latley the maps at forgehub have been a little repetitive. Yeah theres that cool map here and there, but nothing has really "knocked my socks off". And I want to see a map that amazes me like that again. For example Remedy knocked my socks off. Thank you linubidix!

    Rules
    You have until May 20 to post a map!
    It can be on any map. (But you might wanna stick with foundry and sanbox)
    It can be any type of map
    It can not be a map posted before April 27 (must be new)
    You can forge with one partner
    No modding
    Not only the map must be awsome but the gameplay too

    Judges
    There are 2 judge positions open to help me pick the winner.
    Judges must be experienced in forgeing, and at least a member at forgehub. No junior members
    -AceofSpades0707
    -HLG Flash Point
    -

    How to post
    Post the map name, link to dl, link to FH post (optional), and 1 picture

    Prize
    I don't have a prize to offer as of right now 4/26/09 but when i get one i will post what it is. Most likely a 1 month XBL card.

    UPDATE!!!! (The time has been extended to 2 weeks from today 5/20/09 to 6/3/09)
    HLG Flash Point is also now a judge

    It is for sure a month xbox live? I'll enter a conquest map im making then
    but only if there is a prize.

    Accually since you dont have one yet, may I suggest 1000 Gamer points, or 1 Month XBL

    Do I qualify to be a judge? Out of the many maps I've posted in my sig, the two by me are Forbidden Swamp and Terminal 12. The others are by a friend of mine who isn't very good with computers so I posted them for him.

    Sorry, but if you host a contest as a normal person, offering no prize, and you're not even famous, you won't get much entries. To make sure that you won't get any at all, you even said that you can make ANY type of map. That doesn't really give a person an idea to start on, and then they don't even try to enter.

    yeah kinda

    the prize is either 1 month, or 1000 points

    which is better than nothing...

    also your coming off with an ego, like your anybetter,
    but i doubt that was your true intentions, its just a sense.

    anyway I agree with the non specific map type being a little loose.
    there should be something next time..

    As for me, I'm planning on entering, but am not sure theres enough time..
    Hopefully I will be able to get some time in on my maps, but you should consider expanding the time to Fri..

    I'll send you a message about my situation...
