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.
__Only use if you aren't available for the whole testing period and wish to attend your map.
Would you like the SourceTV demo of the test?
__These are automatically recorded at all times.
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.


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 8:40 GMT is allowed, 30 minute test starting at 8:50 GMT isn't)

Hey Jonny, best stick it on tf2maps. go to the "maps and downloads" tab at the top, and you can upload it there.

OK, thanks I uploaded it to TF2maps too. I had problems uploading it when I first presented the map.

I think maybe we need a new gameday day. I've been patiently waiting for a slot for 2 weeks now and every time i come by it's filled up only hours after thread creation. With 4-6 maps consistently not getting into the gameday time slots i think it would benefit people greatly.

I'll look into hosting a Sunday event for EU, Sunday worked out pretty well in the past (or alternate, I'm EU based but there seems to be more US people testing and playing in the servers).

Unfortunately the wrong UK time was posted as 5, when it really started at 4 due to daylight saving, so I missed game-testing my level with everyone.

I'll enter it into the next game day so I can play it with people. The feedback section didn't have much, basically people saying its like 2fort, and I know it is theres nothing wrong with that. If anyone has anything constructive so say please post on the thread in the maps showcase section, I'd really appreciate any feedback.

Thanks all who playtested

Well, don't because the server crashed while your map was being played and there was hardly anyone left to play :(
