In light of expecting to invest 2 months of free time, am i expecting to much if i ask for more details? Your the only other one making a entry, so their isn't much entertainment in the competition of it and, 20$ isn't enough to motivate me alone. I'd at least like to get a copy of Bioshock 2 out of it, but i don't know what I'm getting for sure. (or the newest stalker smiley )
On top of that i would be disappointed if i lost, after investing more than 3 dozen hours, because i don't have the know how to create custom content. I would be pissed if i lost because my entry didn't have a coke or candy machine. Not to mention your wife is helping you. Technically that's like having 4 months to work on it. And it's worth noting you've had a passion for that pic for a long time and you probably had it all though out before the comp started. I spent the first 4 days just thinking about it and getting the scaling down. (not counting the days in between i didn't work on it for what ever reason)

Well I am not in the contest.. I am not going to run a contest and then enter it, thats like stacking the deck. There are 2 others that I have spoken with on Steam that are mapping for it. Redwood, its there in the first post, enter or not, thats up to you man, I am not twisting your arm.. and hey its 20 more bucks than you had to begin with... for what a little mapping fun? I don't see any other contest right now.

Your very good at assuming Red. Why so bitter bro? Hey don't be jealous that my wife is into the stuff I am and is willing to help me. You'll find a girl someday man, I have faith.

Arg. I remember you specifically saying you were entering and that your wife was helping you make custom content. (am i alone here??)
But!, after going through your posting history trying to find out exactly what you said i cant find any post that resembles that. Unless it was posted in the starting post and now has been edited. Maybe i dreamed reading a post where you said that... iv been doing things like that a lot lately. (Last week I actually told my friend i saw a half donkey half zebra walking down the street before i realized it was a dream...)

Ether way, I'm more interested in starting my own scavenge map iv had on the drawing board for while now. I won't be entering this time around.

Haha I totally know what you're talking about. Sometimes I think of something, but then I think, "did that actually happen in real life or was it just a dream?"

Just posting again to say that the progress of my map is going extremely fast, which is quite necessary because I also need my map to be tested by other players before I release it and post it here on the Snarkpit smiley

Don't worry, I'm not going to haste smiley

Will the winner of this competition also get some Snarkmarks like I suggested before on another forum? (That you get snarkmarks for each competition that you win)

Just a few more days left to get your entries posted.

Have no control of Snarkmarks, maybe an admin here can reply.

4 DAYS!

I sent you a PM about it.

I just wanted to state for the record that I made an attempt at this. I didn't get past the orange mapped stage though. I tried to fit it into a weekend I had free, but the way my university is scheduled, I had too much to deal with daily. We just got through with Quarter finals and I'll get a week's break between them but the competition will already be over by the end of this weekend where I have one other video project to complete.

I might have time Sunday to work on it. I'll see if I can pump something out in a day smiley

[EDIT]: Oh, and about the snarkmark rewards system, It's currently not in place yet and I don't imagine it will be until Late April or May when larchy can get back to work on it. They'll most likely be included in the next major update to the site. Stay tuned. smiley

Thank you NIB.

Everyone else: You have today and Sunday to get your entry in. Riven even if you don't meet the deadline, please still submit. Would be nice to see what you came up with as well.

This Contest was all about having fun and learning new things. NIB I know you had fun and learned many new things. That makes me very happy... and you have already won so much by doing so. If there are no other entries you will be our winner by default, even though from what I have seen so far, you have a strong entry. Good Luck!

March 1st I will announce the winner.
