Hi,
I just registered to vote. I think I played most of them over the weekend and must say I'm really impressed with the quality I've seen.
Since I don't map myself my yardstick was how much fun I had on each map.
My top eight in no particular order.
koth_grazr: Looks good, plays good.
pl_leminnes: Short and sweet payload map. Would fit nicely between two more involved maps in any server rotation.
cp_frozen: I guess going for a 3 Stage map in 72 hours is quite a ballsy move. Looks like it has payerd off so far.
pl_ravidge: Feels like a map from a future were Valve actually did something with the medival mode. Until then it is a nice gimmick map. The contest version had a broken forward spawn on the attacking team.
koth_dabp: Looks great but could use more ways to the higher levels.
pl_ym: Looks really nice but could use a forward spawn, once the cart leaves the house again gameplay is now a frustrating grindfest in an otherwise fun map.
plr_zhan: Making a fun payload race must be one of the hardest things for a mapper to master, this is fun.
koth_reej: Combines a unique look with solid gameplay. Just turn on the light inside.
cp_hanz: Has nice height variation and doesn't stalemate. Now make it pretty.
koth_psy: Fun map but that door.... CP feels very open, I got headshot a lot.
Overall I feel my choices look a bit boring and conservative. I want to commend the players who tried to push the boundaries of TF2 mapping but I choose to focus on what is there after 72 hours. Had I focused on future potential my list would probably look diffrent.

There are about 10 maps I still haven't been able to play, but I'm going to go ahead and put down names now rather than wait and risk missing the chance. May come back on it later. In no particular order :
cp_hanz_72
cp_ezekel_72
cp_frozen_72
koth_dabp_72
pl_ym_72 (damnit, put your map's name in your screenshot's filename !)
cp_ravage_72 (same as above !)
koth_psy_72
cp_trotim_72
koth_omnomnick_72
plr_supersandvich_72_3 (the right name by the way !)
cp_hanz_72
cp_ezekel_72
cp_frozen_72
koth_dabp_72
pl_ym_72 (damnit, put your map's name in your screenshot's filename !)
cp_ravage_72 (same as above !)

Preliminary voting ends 17:00 CEST on Friday 8th of July
Check this time in YOUR time zone.
Votes will be counted after that and the final round of voting will begin later that day.
Also, I want to remind you all that this thread is NOT for discussion, only for votes. Important issues like Fubar's withdrawal are fine, but please keep anything else to this thread. Thank you.

despite fubar's withdrawal, i still wish to keep my vote for his map in my top ten. this is because i genuinely had fun with this map. i feel that fubar has earned and deserves my vote even if he's out of the contest.
will this invalidate my top ten if i do this?

Ravidge
Lemmines
Mangy
Beatz

I feel I have to give a reminder so everything's absolutely clear: Your list must contain ten map names when the deadline is up (and the thread is locked). I'm sorry if this has been unclear but it should go without saying that you actually need to play all or close to all of the maps to such an extent that you are able to form an opinion on which ones you prefer. Managing to squeeze out 10 shouldn't be all too hard, right?
Another reminder - just in case - that you cannot vote for yourself. I think I mentioned this earlier but I didn't explicitly say it in the beginning of the thread, therefore I find it unfair to invalidate an entire list that includes your own map. If there are such cases, I will ignore that particular map in your list.
