Speedmapping Thread!
From now on, this thread will be the place to discuss speedmapping issues. This will also be where all speedmapping events will be annouced. This is just an effort to keep General Abuse on it's topic of 'anything' rather than being about speedmapping every weekend.

It's unfortunate your browser registered any clicks at all. 
Now, 
how much fun would the web be if we were all ignorant and humorless douche bags like you? 
I'm In For Song Title, Too 
as you might imagine, but as for my free time is very very restricted at the moment, i'd prefer to do the session in january. everything will be better then (although it's a satanic month) =) 
Song Title Participants List 
mapper(1): satans penpal IJED
mapper(2): god's very own EFDAT =) 
Ok, I'm Building Satans Penpal 
And I'd suggest 'Horny' by Dj somone or other, just because its an ambigious title. 
Ijed: No! =) 
don't do satan's pen pal =) that was just the list of participants. i don't have the time to map at the moment. i just wanted to start that list. hopefully more people will join in on the theme...?
list without jokes:
1: ijed
2: efdat
3: your name here 
Fuck 
Already started.

Early morning for me when I read the post.

Ah well, it's rolling so I'm going to carry on. A load of book references basicly. As to my 'real' song title for another to build off:

"Perhaps Vampires is A bit Strong" (Arctic Monkeys).

Bah, maybe the theme name should be 'mapper descriptions that ijed mistook for song titles'. 
In Fact 
Just throw me a song title and I'l mangle it in there somehow.

Something like "The Day I Returned my Library Book to Hell" would be helpful ;)

Will finish today. 
I <i>can</i> Finish Today 
but it'll be a better pack if there's more involved, obviously. 
Sorry ... 
... for the inconvenience =) let's just say you finish "satan's pen pal" and i'll do a very quick "include your nick" and we'll pack these two as sm140: "the misunderstanding", ok? 
 
i�m in weekend :\ and i dont map at weekend :p so i�m off!!!

i just map at work :p 
 
another thing i refuse to map for Quoth... 
Heheh 
Ok, bit too much enthusiasm there. I finish off Satans Penpal today then. 
Alright 
my nick map is done =) gonna go party now! 
Nearly 
Got ta finish off the last section, a couple of hours or so. 
Done 
And emailed. 
Well 
I thought Aliens was a good idea!!!
Anyone got an .fgd for the original TC?

Song Title's

- What kind of theme was that?!?!?!

Trinca

Mapping at work, now theres a (risky) idea!!

Read the docs for aliens - AFAIK it's pretty simple, something like place an Ogre and it becomes alien type X.

You can also modify a fgd very easily - just open it in a decent text editor (only use wordpad if you're very patient) and you'll figure it out with a bit of trial and error.

Song Title theme is not dead - I just scotched that particular session, although it still produced two maps. 
Actually... 
I think the theme was irrelevant. You guys just wanted to make a speedmap!!

fgds - I had to change one once cause it didnt have a default 'light' key for lights!!

As for aliens mapping - I'll have to try it (after I've made my current one) 
Song Title 
ijed and i agreed that it would be nicer to have song title as the theme for a turtlemap session. rules would be: you're given a song title by another participant and build a map that fits that (whole) song.
who'd be in? 
Song Title... 
Could be interesting. I would give it a shot if it fits my schedule. By whole song, do you mean lyrics too? 
Song Title 
generic: yes. you'd do a map that tries to catch the atmosphere of the complete piece. i would leave it up to each mapper if including lyrics helps this purpose or not... 
Its An Interesting Challenge 
Because someone else chooses the music. I can think of maybe five or six tracks I'd like to base a map around, and many of the best maps and packs have been made to a track or album.

I'm pretty sure czg made Insomnia to Enter Sandman, at least in part anyway - ?

And if someone else chooses the track then it means that they want to make a map whilst listening to it, so it calls for some mutability on the part of the end mapper to extract the same good idea, or thier own version at least. 
Uh, No, I Hate Metal. 
 
Fair Enough 
It was the sandman intro story that made me think that.
