TF2Maps Presents: The Winter 2017 72hour TF2Jam!

[Infomaniac]

I'm almost done with the map. I just have to pack it up.

When the time is up, whatever progress you have done on your map up to that point is what will be judged, correct? Provided you have a 72hr thread for it? Just wanted to make sure there isn't a naming convention for the final product to be judged. I don't recall seeing it in the FAQ.

Right, there is no naming convention. All you need to do is have your entry in the 72hr Jam Entries category.

wait hold up, i submitted a map using the normal add download, and just added the prefix thing that we did last time... is this acceptable?

No, not really, because the rules say you have to submit it to the 72hour Jam Entries category. I moved your map for you, but perhaps you should re-read the rules and the FAQ in case there's something you missed.

I have found an issue with the "Join the Steam Chat" piece, it might be just me, but it doesn't seem to do anything aside from bring me to a "Site Can't Be Reached Page". Any idea what to do to get my map tested then?

[Crowbar]

Well about 50 hours have already passed, but yes I can confirm this was fun.

 

[Pizzachino5768]

[Micnax]

It's the last push! Everyone give it your all!

 

[Infomaniac]

My map was made a bit badly. but I did try to put effort, right?

 

[AlphaOwl]

Welp. I'm done. With some decent artwork.

Hopefully I did the process correctly. This is my first time doing it, and I'm pretty happy with my submission. I noticed this in the TF2 news section, and I thought it'd be cool to submit some artwork. Anyways, thanks for hosting this, I do wish everyone did well!

If I have a medal from the last Jam, I will get another medal or give me nothing?

The older medal specifies it's for the 2016 Jam, so I think you get a new one...

Don't take my word for it though.

 

[Crash]

You will get a new medal with the current event date.

 

[DeathAnimations Team]

I was wondering, is this event happening every year? I think i saw on the TF2 wikipedia that the event was only made once in 2016 (outdated i guess)

 

[Etasus]

it happens every six months (approximately), and it has happened more than once
