This contest was amazing, some of the entries on here look stunning. Congrats to everyone that made it to the top 16.

My map, Commune, had an extremely troubled development due to us not being able to playtest the map actively (I didn't have a computer available to map), and I even fucked up the submission, but I'm glad you guys took time to quickly look over the map with my mistake. Hopefully the next contest I enter I don't have as much of a problem.

This contest really shows the best of the MvM community, and I'm glad this collab between the MvM group and TF2Maps happened. Hope you guys had fun and thankyou!

I want to thank everyone and my 3 newly-received medals once again for entering this contest! Whether you made the shortlist or not, you still contributed to TF2Maps and Potato's MVM server community- and that's what matters!

So I'm assuming getting multiple medals is intended?
I got 2, a friend got 3 but most people on a forum I made seemed to have gotten 2

I wonder what will happen to all these excess medals. Will they just be deleted? Will they become tradable, turning into the new high-value item? Will they be turned into something else, like the crafted gatebot hats that were turned into capacitors?

I don't think they would be tradable, because that would ruin what owning the medal is about: actually having competed in the competition

I got 2, but I can't even equip them independently like multiple 72hr medals. So one of them is completely useless.

I actually managed to equip both. For me, they both appear in certain class equip menu's, notably the engineer's but in others, only one shows

According to the wiki, the medals should be paintable, however in game there is no option to do so and the medal isnt usable with any paint. It would be nice to maybe get this fixed, since it might could be kinda cool, having multiple medals painted different colours

Thank you for the heads up; I'm the one that took those painted variant images for the wiki. I didn't read the schema fully the day the medal was added, and so I assumed because the medal is set up to be paintable (and that same schema update turned the ETF2L medals paintable) that the Mappers vs. Machines Medal would've been paintable as well. I've updated the wiki to more accurately display that the medal isn't paintable at the moment; though it would be nice to have it paintable in the future.

Maybe they'll give out extra copies that ARE paintable:p
