Well I have to DNF.
Family stuff came up, I'll probably try to finish my map tomorrow but not actually enter it into the contest

Slapped some buildings down, then I had to go do some other shit, then when I got done with that I realized what I had made wasn't very good anyway. Ironically the bridge I made last week to prepare for today ended up much better. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I tried my best and managed to do a couple of hours, but I was feeling too flat and unmotivated. Thanks everyone who watched my brief laggy stream. Good luck everyone else.

I just submitted my second entry, and because I have the latest start and deadline, we can consider the contest officially over. Hurray. I've seen a lot of good entries, so I'll be curious how my less good entries stack against them, and seeing the final results of course...

I probably cant win, not wont (which is also true, holy shit the detail maps were amazing), but some of my custom content didnt get packed, and I didn't notice until it was WAY to late to fix it.

Hope judges use the screenshots I posted as reference for the missing props, because there are no missing textures, its just the tank props I believe that didn't get packed.

@HosomiThe records I have suggest that you guys are late - is there a reason for that? Did someone give you a grace period and I forgot? Please get back to me ASAP so I can start the judging process!
Was I? By how long? If it was just a couple minutes then it was because I didn't notice the submission thread. I streamed it, so you can watch the VOD to check that I was within the time limit. You can also check the metadata on the file. I assure you everything was within 7hours and 12 minutes
Am I eligible for a grace period if I spent half an hour fixing all my brushes that were 1/8th of a HU apart?

Judging the Detail Entries

Detail Map Pack - Judging Survey
All judging is public, so you, the unwashed masses, can decide who wins. I'm still finishing off the Layout uploads, but while you are waiting for that, linked above are the Detail entries to download!

To Judge:
  • Download the detail map pack above, and play each of the maps a little bit. Have a proper look around them.
  • Once you've done this, go to the Judging Survey above. This asks you to rate each map from 1 to 5. Do this, and leave a comment explaining why you chose that rating.
  • Yes, you can rate your own map.
The map with the overall highest rating at the end wins! Easy, right?

We reserve the right to discard any judging that seems suspicious (such as giving one map a 5 and all others a 1). Please play the maps, and don't just rate based on the screenshots.

Unfortunately, two maps were broken and had to be disqualified. These were detail_diva, by @Diva Dan, which was a corrupted file, and detail_malachiteman by @Malachite Man which was fullbright and in violation of the contest rules. Without these two, there were sixteen Detail entries.
