everyone has noticed the Game with Fame contests on XBL, right? well, what if FH had a version similar to that? Famous and well-respected forgers can help make a map with a selected winner. The entries must have a map already in progress, and credit is divided between the two creators. anyone see any downside to this? please discuss!
It's a good idea, but I honestly can't see most 'famous' people sharing forging credit. It takes a really, really long time to build a perfect map. I could see a 'game with fame', I guess...or maybe the guy would help with their map for a day or two or something. Just more feasible ideas.
But if you do that, it'll just be like normal. I mean, it's not very hard to get a good forger to look over your map.
I dunno, when I was starting out it was near impossible to get one of the Guilders (haha farrrr back) to actually look at your map. It's probably all different now, though.
Yea but they could just do it for a day or 2 and tell them what should be done and what would make the map better
It may be hard for some people, but I think I could. I guess newer people would have a hard time, seeing as higher ups won't even PM you back.
Yea, whenever I try to get someone, even a mediocre/good forger to make a map with me, they don't PM me back, and just ignore it. It really hurts my feelings. Forgemates is alright, but doesn't really help that much either. I think this would be a good idea if maybe a contest winner got to forge with a good forger for a map, to learn stuff. But only a noobie contest.
Well you guys have good ideas, i'll look into it but doubt much. As for myself, I'm trying to use twitter to say if I'm bored or willing to help or about to play and stuff, so you can follow me there if you like and if you get me at a good time, I'd be happy to help you or play with you.
