I just want to know how you guys could resist my "Trinity" map... I mean it was clever... Three players.. .Trinity
The first atom bomb test site .. .Trinity
Thus a three player map set at an atom bomb test site, and th emap is called Trinity...

Hell it even had a *QUOTE*... c'mon

:P

(Actually I think my Olympus map is better)

PsychicToaster March 6th, 2001 03:41 PM

gabeybaby March 6th, 2001 03:49 PM

i didnt like spiral. All the battle takes places in the middle. i like maps that allow for tactics. i guess thats why my maps weren't nominated. "too many dead areas" i wonder if any of these guys play stratos...?

I think that Shiny should release all the maps that were submitted to the contest. odds are they were all well done.

Gabe is not the right guy to mess with. You'd better give him the award for "Sexiest Map" or he'll go ballistic.

My map didnt make it in.. it was really well designed.. i spent well over 150 hours on it, and another 8 or 10 in-game testing. Anyways... Its Called "Peaks of Empyrea", i sent it to SacrificeCenter, So if ya want, grab it.. maybe someone will appreciate all the work that went into it...

I HATE YOU SHINY!

Big_Earn March 6th, 2001 05:34 PM

Spoon[imported] March 6th, 2001 05:45 PM

That is so BULL!

i seen some of those maps and there so crap! and plain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

they have the worst gameplay!


even thouh the one i sent in was only worked on for 10 min http://www.veforums.com/wink.gif it still had amazing gameplay and alright looks.
screw all you slow people spending 10 hours and still making chessy maps.

thats one bad thing about sacrifice maps there all looks not gameplay!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Archon March 6th, 2001 05:46 PM

my response to the maps i did play
trinity:This map is well done except for one thing since it is circular the battles seem to carry on and on when i play it the battles last at least 1 hour-not that this is a bad thing but it does get repedative.
Spiral Solaris: I agree with gabey the battles are concentrated to much in the center and the real thing of this map is the picture of wat it looks like, but it is a nice map depending on your tastes.
Atlas Fallen: This map is generally good in most aspects apart from the look of the minimap pic. the battles can take anywhere and the detail is ok i guess. I just find it kinda barren.
Cyclone: I dont really remember it but since i have really no reculection well ill just say cool.

The above has been my interpertation of the maps and although trinity wasnt one of the finalists i thought it should be mentioned as a good 3 player map, dont make hard feelings towards me http://www.veforums.com/biggrin.gif

Just a question... Were people (by people I mean me) disqualified if they enterd under their parent's name and age, or did these people (me) just have bad maps...

Archon March 6th, 2001 05:57 PM

actually you had to be 18 so thats probably why tim.

wtf? the only ppl to have played my map is me, stefanIII, and the shiny team!
maybe you are basing it on a screenshot that i posted a while ago? how are you going base an entire contest on one screen shot? its not like u look at the thing and you know its gameplay! i mean its gotten into the final 22 and out of all the maps entered it has to pretty special for shiny to list it... i didnt say anything about your maps because they have to be liked by someone to get up there

dont get so cocky
4 maps in the contest doesnt mean anything... you can only win once. yes you will say you have a better chance... maybe but they would take your best map out of the four and then compare to the rest so you are still getting the same chances as everyone else is

i dont like arrogant ppl
i do not mean to bait you into a flame war
-far from it in fact!

its just i do not take kindly to cocky wunderkids basing everything off of a picture

The team is devoting a lot of time to playing these maps, the team also devoted a lot of time to organising the competition, the sponsors, etc.

- If it isn't appreciated then please let me know.

- If your map wasn't selected ... better luck next time.

- If your map was selected it was based on the criteria we outlined in the rules.

The decision rests with the team and is based on what WE like.

Heres a tip for all those who didn't win...

Don't try.
Trying is the first step towards failure.

Also map for Q3 or Halflife or somthing then you will have a lot of fun. http://www.veforums.com/biggrin.gif

Hes being quite rude and quite cocky, he's named all 4 of his maps that are in the contest, and we are all voting for the winner. Call it a hunch but I don't think he'll be gettin the computer. http://www.veforums.com/biggrin.gif

This is not a flame, just a word to the wise.

BioHazard_L5 March 6th, 2001 07:43 PM

Alright this is bugging me badly (im nto saying my maps were winner material, im just stating for the fact) Was it a factor if you had your parents and/or extended family enter the maps? I can remember idolater frequently stating that we should get a family member to enter our maps if we werent old enough. If this was an immediate factor, id like to know, since i did this. I read the rules quite a few times, and never did it state against this. Shiny, could you provide a little insight on this matter? Was this a factor in map disqualification?

PS. GL all you winners, man i wish it was me
