Done with your BATT map? Submit it here! Remember to double check and make sure you aren't breaking any rules with your map! You have until November 13 at 5am ET to post it. If you're a minute or two late, I probably won't care, but realize I can disqualify you for being late, so don't do it.

Submit your map in this form, por favor.

Name: Forum Name
Map: Map Filename*
Screenshot: Screenshot link**
Download: Download link***

*Should be pl_batt_forumname_version (no version is okay)
**Take a screenshot with your HUD off and no weapons visible. Links to the actual image only please. Annoying ad-filled places like Photobucket are dumb - don't use them.
***Upload it to Dropbox or TF2Maps.net, preferably. No place where there is a wait time. Shove your (packed) map into a .zip or .bz2. I want that download link.

Winning by default isn't fun. Getting 4th and 5th in numerous contests has motivated me to try harder, improve and study more so that i might finally recieve that greater acknowledgement for my work, so if when i finally win something it was simply because nobody else entered it's a real kick in the teeth.

After the religious defence of the track by Doom i fully expect him to submit his work tonight.

I agree completely with Grazr. I don't want to win because nobody else entered. I want to win because people liked my work the best.

That being said, seeing as things are still open, would it be okay for me to make and release one more build that fixes a bug that's been bothering me (and also possibly the sky everyone's complained for pages about in the WIP thread)?

Knock yourself out. This is a grace period for all you people. Fix shit, just don't go changing your layout and adding more detail.

Also, I have yet to see Wimples or Doom submit it. Somebody find them. [And if you're somebody other than them, submit it now!]

Sorry for the holdup guys.

I feel a little bad for not working as much as I should have on this, but school caught up to me pretty hard this past month. Right now I'm going to submit version A4. I do have a 50% or so detailed version in hammer, but as of now it's completely unsealed and unclipped. I do intend to finish the map completely, regardless of the outcome of the competition.

Thanks again LE for giving me time to check back in at the forums, I almost forgot :O

If we only get the 4-5 entries that we might wind up getting, do you think we should just add in the maps already on the server, or no? I know BY had a map, and a few others, but I don't know how far along they've progressed or if they even want to be included in the running.

Alrighty people. You have until Thursday at 5pm Eastern to submit final fixed versions, if you need to! Feel free to host events testing these entries until I manage to find a time that I can host my own event. Voting will commence probably around Thanksgiving for a week or two. You'll be rating maps on a scale of 1 to 7 in categories including detail and gameplay, and probably something related to creativity and how well they built around the track.
