no, I just see your abuse of hammer shouldn't go unpunished!! :p

But its only fair to abuse the program that abuses us so much...All those hours it forces us to spend in front of it and keeping it appeased with use, but still snapping to non-existant grid lines on pastes, moving textures around even though you have texture lock on, crashing during vbsp startup for no reason...and so on. It earned a little whips and chains type abuse (you know you want to pull that one out for your next post Youme)

What a good time I had with my entry. So many noob mistakes I got the opportunity to fix the hard way! Possibly missed a few, but w/e, I'm going with it

Good luck to everyone who's participating! I'm excited to see all the entries

Yea, I'm trying to finish up all the little detailing now, I only have half the map done, but that's all that needs to be done =P quick copy and rotate 180 and all that's left is a little texture change. I'll submit whatever I can finish though, not gonna hold back cause some stuff might not be done even if it means not winning. :)

too bad I will be off and about when the contest entries get posted. I may not have internet for a while :( I was looking forward to seeing everyone kick my maps butt because I ran out of time to work on it and turned it in 2 weeks ago.

I had a strange dream last night, I had to dissalow something like half a dozen entries because they posted their submissions in here as though it was an upload thread rather than PMing them to me....teehee

That's funny. I'm wondering if you were one of those who was disqualified?


PinkPanther. Looking foward to seeing what you did, too bad you couldn't finish.

bomc, that sucks. If you order from newegg today you can have it installed in 2-3 days. That still leaves 4 days to finish. come on now... :D

I've started carving tiki's from wood. It's pretty fun, unfortunately that occupied wed so I cut myself short one workday.
all down to detailing but that's what usually takes the most time anyway.

no skybox is allow, but you can have a 3d skybox texture just not a whole separate skybox area ;)

Yea I was actually wondering this exact same question cause who's 20th is he talking about? Cause there is the point makers 20th, there is his 20th and then there is the servers 20th. I'm hoping it's the makers 20th cause I still have some texture work to do.

Youme said:
# Everything must be finished and submitted in a PM to me before Monday 20th April
What time is the deadline at?

You quoted the deadline. Before monday the 20th. Since its now gone 12 GMT(as of this post) it's already started 20th of monday everywhere in the world, which means you've missed the deadline.

Thanks for all the entries, I'll get them all sorted into one download and voting should start tonight :thumbup1:
