Minor Contest #5: TFConnect 2: Double Trouble [Results]

[14bit]

Main Thread | Upload Thread | Voting Thread | Results​

We had a great turnout this year with 15 submitted maps (that's 30 mappers!), and after much testing, judging, and voting, it's time for the results! All maps had two final scores, each out of 25; one for Gameplay and one for Visuals. Collaboration was factored into both scores; the Final Gameplay score is an average of each judge's Gameplay + Collaboration scores, and the Final Visuals score is an average of each judge's Visuals + Collaboration scores. Public voting was averaged and treated as a 5th judge. First up, gameplay!

First Place (Gameplay):
Division by @Ray is Sucky and @Ismaciodismorphus
Gameplay: 22.89 points
Visuals: 23.17 points

Second Place (Gameplay):
Crestfall by @half and @blucheese
Gameplay: 20.38 points
Visuals: 20.75 points

Third Place (Gameplay):
Doomgoose by @DoctorDoomtrain64 and @Dasprucegoose
Gameplay: 20.07 points
Visuals: 23.53 points

Special thanks to all the folks at TFConnect for helping us run this event, and to Polybrow (from TFConnect), @Sonoma, and @Brokkhouse for judging! First place winners from each category will be contacted about prizes soon. Thanks for playing, and see you all for the next contest!

Thank you for hosting the contest 14bit, and thanks to all the other judges and public voters! It was great fun working with someone on a map for the first time, and I'm very proud of our "final" product. Congrats to the winners, and great job to all entrants as well! To those interested: Crestfall will more than likely continue development, but after a break of indeterminate time (contest time-limit mapping takes a lot out of you).

Thanks for the contest! I learned how to use blender and hammer for this making props and textures is good fun. Definitely a skill I plan to refine more for next time. I'm really pleased with how things turned out considering it was my first time.
