The Asylum
Anyone here remember calculatedChaos?
Boy I sure do, those were truly the golden age days of Asylum mapping. One thing I loved doing was making all sorts of dumb maps for them, and playing every other dumb map in existence as well. Well, this April Foolsday my project blew up in my face and all I had to submit was the latest Pipeball Ultra build. Believe me, I wanted so much more. Unfortunately, I don't know if I'm ever going to have the time to do a wacky concept as well as not totally abandoning my other maps.
Then, it struck me. Bring back an idea from the old calculatedChaos days. Bring back CCDorm. Or CCHotel, for the real old timers like me. The idea was have a central hub, and mappers from the community would build their own rooms separately. The main mapper would then install each room into the hub, and voila! A new map is born!
So, that's the pitch. If I don't have time to make a really good map, why not outsource it? If I were to revive this ancient idea, would there be enough interest here on TF2M to get a decent sized hotel/dorm/whatever going?
