Fuzzball Posted December 26, 2011 Okay so this is the plan. At 21.00 (GMT) The event will start. Rules are simple - You must post here stating that you want to map, when the time begins I will PM you the theme. - The time limit for mapping is 1 hour from starting time - Map can be any size - Pistol start advised - Boom playable format please to keep things consistant - If you want midi music please include. - Try to create from scratch, if you have a half finished map you wish to use a base that would be a NO-GO! - After the time is up you MUST PM me with your completed map, a name for it, how difficult you think it is (Easy, med, hard?) as well as the name you wish to be credited by in the text file There we go, I didn't want to slave over this post to keep it simple and to keep the event fresh and exciting...or something...** Would be a good time to dust off the old map-editor and get your mapping juices flowing, some great maps have come from speed events in the past, so try not to let this chance go! Maps will be compiled into a single wad at the end of the event and posted here for all of you to try out and enjoy! People entered: -Pottus = Submitted -Olympus = Submitted -Melon = Submitted -MagnificentBeard = Passed -franckFRAG = Submitted -JCD = Submitted -hardcore_gamer = Submitted -NoneeLlama = Submitted -walter confalonieri = Submitted Status: DONE! The theme is based on this small scene- "I awaken to the sound of fire around me, I reach for the door infront and make my way around the structure. Tall walls surround me all the way to the courtyard...fights along the way and some keys to find too. Reaching the exit I escape with my life and my new found rocket launcher...only to find myself in yet another hot situation!"

Fuzzball Posted December 27, 2011 Sorry for double post but I have added an extra hour onto the join time because no-one else is interested yet... 0 Share this post Link to post

Fuzzball Posted December 27, 2011 Pottus said:Here we go... http://www.mediafire.com/?69lqu3jtzqj1v7n Gave it a quick go, pretty neat! Though if it were to be part of a level pack it wouldn't be a starting level~ Seeing as the time is up for joining and only you managed to make a map, I'll pospone the event for another time...maybe with a different plan of action with the time... The theme will stay the same though so your map can be kept but I will not make it public as not to spoil anything! Thank you for giving it a go though, I am happy that someone showed interest at least 0 Share this post Link to post
stewboy Posted December 27, 2011 Well I would've been interested, but unfortunately I don't check the forums once an hour, and I doubt anybody else does either, so probably more warning would have been nice. 0 Share this post Link to post

Well if you want to do it you're still welcome to..I'm not going to be super strict about it...I'd be more than happy to send you the theme! 0 Share this post Link to post
Melon Posted December 27, 2011 I'd have been happy to make something for this, the problem was that you started and subsequently finished the event while I was asleep. If it's still open, I'm still up for giving this a shot. 0 Share this post Link to post

It can still be open yup, the theme has not been made public yet, so you're more than welcome to join still based on the same theme- will hopefully be able to get a small wad together!

I was meant to be last night but due to the short time frame I gave before the event "started" it's basicly been post-poned to later today- not sure exactly what time but probably in the next 7-8 hours~ You can be added if you wish~ 0 Share this post Link to post

hardcore_gamer Posted December 27, 2011 Well where I live the time is 17:50, so that means its not too late for me to sign up? GMT means global time right? If so, then sign me up! Its about time I started making some maps again :) How much time will I have to finish the map? EDIT: I know you said you would PM the theme to use in the map but would it be ok if I would be allowed to use some kind of a outdoors rock theme or something? I don't really feel like making a tech base map. A hell themed map would also be ok. 0 Share this post Link to post
