Contest idea thread!

Yes, the artpass map - the vmf was provided by valve and the winners went into the game - those are Mann Manor and Mountainlab.
In case this idea hasn't been thrown around yet:
How about a contest where all participants have to use one of the theme packs (like swamp for example) and make a map with that theme? i'd find it interesting to see how people handle a set theme.

How about another one with the recently released construction pack?

Why is the construction pack on the front page anyway? it makes it look as if it was just released. I myself was confused, and I've been using it for a few years.
I think the reasoning for not featuring it was because it wasn't made by us.
Has this idea been pitched:
Back to school content pack competition,
Models, Textures, Props, Maps all in the theme of school and education and 1950's school quality.
Each catogory would have its own competition and the best content would make it into a custom content pack. (Excluding the maps)

Just all the top maps that clearly were shown. If thats 3 maps or 5 shouldnt matter as long as the maps have proven themselve to work.
However, 1 issue is there:
The map must have the results known before phase 2 starts. This can take a while and during that waiting moment no progress can happen. Many prob dont want to wait for that when their map would be borderline. So i rather see just a few maps especialy delivered for such contest.
School themed maps with hidden purposes, tight corridoors, small areas mostly for flanking, sounds like a good idea....
Also im not the pro mapper here, school is a theme not a layout.

Given that Valve has just posted a blog saying that the tf2 halloween this year will be a community update, I think a Halloween Event contest would be a good choice. If you guys could organize it to end in about a month, a quick contest to make event versions of Valve maps would give Valve a lot of choices for event maps to add. I don't know if you guys would have enough time, though.
You cant really flank in junction
If we hand valve a glorious map for halloween, they wont do anything themselves. Though its great they include the community, dont take advantage and only use community content valve.
