July Forgery Challenge

[Kenny M]

Hey folks, it's been a long time since the last Forgery Challenge, well along with the new update concluding who made the Review Team, I bring you *Fanfare* July’s Forgery Challenge!!!

We decided that for July’s Forgery Challenge we will resurrect one of our old challenges from April because we never got to review it completely. So, I bring you the Team Doubles Map Challenge!
This will be one of the only challenges that you will be aloud to submit 2 maps, which could be your original submission plus a new one or one of the other.

The winner(s) of this challenge will have their map added to our 'Team Twosome' map pack, which will then be added to our Greatest Hits. (Possibly Bungie Favorites if we get the opportunity.)

Rules
-Only 1 or 2 submissions per member
-Must have spawn points and start points
-Spawn areas not required
-Use of all forge glitches are permitted
-Must use the designated gametype (The gametype does not change anything for gravity or speed they will stay at 100%), which will be provided soon for testing purposes.

All members are allowed to submit a map to review but Review members/admins are not allowed to review their own maps.

You have from July 2nd to July 14th to submit your map to this thread.

Please send all questions to me, here's the link to do that (http://www.halo3forgery.org/forum/private.php?do=newpm&u=6), any clarifications will be put here. Submissions should be posted in this thread.

Good luck and Have Fun :cool:

Edit: You are not allowed to make a Team Doubles map on Cold Storage unless it is a significant change

Its from the 2nd to the 14th so we can release it with the updates.

[DeathsFriend22]

I'll be fixing up Beginnings Revamped after some of the feedback I got and a playtest, and I've got the first map of my Fog of War series coming up :)
It'll be done soon.

So those'll be my 2 maps.

I have just one question, Kenny, are we using the gametype I designed?

[Kenny M]

We havent chose the gametype yet for the challenges once we do I'll provide a link for it.

[Thomas]

I have just one question, Kenny, are we using the gametype I designed?
For forging with this gametype, just worry about it having 100% gravity and movement, so you can't add gravity to make it so you can't break out.

We'll probably just play a default gametype, just one or two differences.

[DeathsFriend22]

so should we be posting our submissions in separate threads here?

[Kenny M]

As of right now post a link and and the name of the map here but I might change my mind and put them in a seperate thread.

All map submissions should be for a map already posted on the site, that way we can also provide a review of the map at the same time.

Thanks.

Just to let everyone know, any late submissions are due today.

I understand that people are upset with various aspects of this, and I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with anybody. Yes, it would have been nice to have the extension for everyone, but that isn't the way it happened.

I understand voicing that opinion is needed so that the error can be acknowledged, but the manner that all parties are handling this isn't the greatest.

One lapse of judgment or miscalculation does not mean that people are bad at what they do, it just means exactly what I said; they had a lapse of judgment or a miscalculation.

I am deleting all posts associated with this topic, and any further communication should be done via PM, if any further communication is needed.

To those that want it, you may have your 4 day extension, but please claim it as soon as possible by reserving a post for your map. Any submissions after July 22nd will not be accepted.

[Null Parameter]

I am reserving this space for my second submission.

[DeathsFriend22]

Okay, i have a few points to bring up.

1. Those who complained about the extension have had it and still have not posted their maps. What was the point?

2. I was told by Null that the reviews will be done by the end of the month at the latest. Does that still stand due to the extensions? I would like to know how good my map is relatively soon, i put it in weeks ago.

3. What's the review team been doing lately? I haven't actually seen any maps reviewed in about a week.

I assumed this would happen. In fact, I won't even get my extra entry in.
They should still be done by the end of the month, and the reviews will all be released at the same time; thus revealing the winner.
Kenny, care to comment?

1. I didn't enter in this one due to complications with my schedule and such.
2. I'm not sure if I can comment on this.
3. Defiance and I have been assigned some more maps, and I'm probably going to look at them as soon as I get a light bulb for my ceiling fan. A huge bright television in a dark room hurts my eyes.

[DeathsFriend22]

thanks for the answers guys. :)

Another question: what's the next forgery challenge going to be?

[Null Parameter]

Another question: what's the next forgery challenge going to be?
It's a surprise! :D ;) :p :cool:

[Defiance]

It's a surprise! :D ;) :p :cool:Can we have a countdown that stops at 12 hours and say we can't release the info on the contest Due to Thomas!?

[Thomas]

Can we have a countdown that stops at 12 hours and say we can't release the info on the contest Due to Thomas!?
Maybe. One day.

Back on topic, Kenny has assigned some of us maps but we still need to go through and playtest it thoroughly with all gametypes that they submitted with it.

Thread has now expired and is now locked. This is the final judgment, meaning there is no way to convince me to open this thread.
