Find your time here

Map Submission Format
Required: Exact Map Filename (ctf_example_a4)
Required: TF2Maps.net file ID number, OR url to offsite download.
__BZ2 compressed files are greatly appreciated to save time for the host.
__May NOT be a hosting site like mega-upload (wait times, codes, excessive ads, etc).
First time submissions, Required: TF2Maps.net discussion thread number.
__My scheduling system uses this number, I need it, not the post number. (picture)
If you need a specific time slot: Available time & your time zone.
If your submission is a single stage out of a multi-stage map, please mention this. (orphaned stage)
If you are a donator with upload abilities, please say if you have already uploaded the map.

Testing options
• A time extension may be requested for mature non-arena maps in need of fine tuning (this includes orphaned stages).

You can keep the same TF2Maps.net file number by clicking edit on your file's page and then simply putting a new file in the upload box. This makes it easier for you (don't have to update all your links!), easier for me, and less clutter on the site. (picture)

Rules
The map must be playable. This means fully functional objective system, proper spawns, not fullbright, etc.
__The purpose of this testing is to help authors refine their designs, not catch newbie bugs.
Filename MUST be versioned. (ctf_example_a1.bsp, NOT ctf_example.bsp)
__Do not rename a bsp after compile. The vmf must be renamed before compile.
Filename must be all lowercase. (ctf_example_a1.bsp, NOT CTF_Example_A1.bsp)
__Our Linux servers don't work with uppercase names.
Map must be IN DEVELOPMENT, finished maps do not require testing.
Map may NOT use a point_servercommand to alter any variables.
Map must be designed for normal play.
__This means no melee, class restricted, too small for 24 players, or otherwise gimmicky maps.

• You may NOT reserve a submission without a download.
• Non-compliance with rules will result in rejection of the submission.
• If an author has more than one map they want tested, they must be submitted to separate days.
• Any maps that have best in the previous weeks gamedays (regardless of version/changes) will be given lowest priority of entry into the gameday schedule.

Information
• Submission deadline is 11 PM EST, 1 day prior.
• Maps will get 30 minutes playtime, KotH gets 20, Arena and orphaned stages get 15.
• Submissions will be limited to 3 hours of testing.
Last map can exceed the limit so long as most of the testing happens within the 3 hour period(30 minute test starting at 2:40 EST is allowed, 30 minute test starting at 2:50 EST isn't)

Map|Author|time
cp_muschio_a3|Joodude|30 min
koth_rocktop_a2|ok comp|20 min
cp_neo_caldera_a1|Jonah|15 min
koth_painstation_a3|Hateburn|20 min

doing math right, we will have lots o' time! I'll host the post-gameday impromtpu for Sekhmet and Torx along with any other map that wishes to be played! File of maps (including Sekhmet and Torx) will be up a few hours before the test.

Jimmy, Ninjilla and E-Arkham, I'd like to inform you your maps are the lowest priority maps at the moment since you guys were in the Tuesday's gameday. And I must give other maps a chance. I thought there was a written rule about this in the copy/pasted rules, but there doesn't seem to be (i'll have to add it for next week).

So if there is any left over space I will fit you guys into the schedule on the first come-first serve base (So Jimmy, then Ninjilla, the E-Arkham). But if you don't make this gameday, don't be surprised.

EDIT: Also, no STV's for this gameday.

Rules technically dictate that I can't put them in the "official" gameday because they were tested in the US gameday earlier in the week. BUT since 1) we don't have a lot of maps and 2) I'm a cool person, I put them in there anyways, and we will play them last as to give untested maps more of an audience.

Makes sense. I won't be able to attend 'cause I have a family dinner, so my friend will pop in to get feedback for me.
