Welcome to Microcontest 3: Pick It Up, but Faster!
Your mission—if you choose to accept it—is to make a map that qualifies for the next main Contest, Pick It Up, but in 3 hours instead of 30 days.

Here's a link to the main Contest thread for the full rules:
https://tf2maps.net/threads/minor-contest-1-pick-it-up.41290/

To enter, reply to this thread claiming a spot. After the deadline you can edit your map into your post to finalize your submission.

Quick Info:

Time commitment: 3-4 Hours
Difficulty: 3/5

Date: April 11th, 2020
Planning starts: 10:00 AM EST
Clock starts: 12:00 PM EST (Noon)
Clock ends: 3:00 PM EST

Countdown clock to deadline here!

NOTES:

Name your VMF with the following format:
<gamemode>_<yourname>_mc3_a1

You do not have to compile within the time limit, but I will only wait one hour past the deadline to collect maps maximum. After that you're disqualified.

There will be no public voting for this Microcontest. Instead, I will choose my favorite map and provide feedback for all entries within 24 hours of the Microcontest ending.

Consider this spot claimed!

EDIT : Finished with five minutes left! Now, on to fixing all the problems I ignored to finish before the timer ran out!

EDIT 2X COMBO : I updated it to fix some lighting bugs.

Hopefully I'll be able to enter, but I can't make any guaranties due to my broken sleep schedule

Can't be worse than the 7.2 hr...

Well, it *is* half the time, so I'm guessing it's gonna be half as hard.
