i'd do another gameplay experiment but i don't have quake or any compilers installed. :x 

 

no way, that gameplay map i did last time required a surprising amount of testing (especially the lightning tunnel). 

and I'm not really all that great with the kind of Quake magick involved in that little gem. 

I found your secret source of inspiration for that lightning puzzle :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOZuxwVk7TU (@ 2:15) 

it should have been britney's face at the end of the hallway instead of madfox's drummer! 

My PC stopped displaying anything on my monitor, and I'm really not sure what's wrong (I cleaned my PC recently, and it boots up fine with no beeps, doesn't shutdown, everything seems to work except there's no output to my monitor) so I'm out this time. 

Definitely a bummer though...

I'm actually having to write my papers, and I still haven't made another map.

I vote to hold off for another week or something, and potentially release a bigger pack. 

I am putting out an official request for anyone who knows how to make a map for quake in one sitting to do so.

i made one last night. took about 6 hours.. then i spent some of this evening tweaking it and making sure it played well. it didn't follow any of the themes mentioned, but let me know where to send it if you want it. 

You can send it to me!

The deadline for anyone else who's interested is 10pm eastern time, on monday the 29th.

That ought to give everyone else plenty of time to whip something up! extensions will be docked half a mark for each day late. 

the theme is "CZG's anus".

obviously. 

 

didn�t made anything yet but the theme is awesome... will dig something for sure :) 

the theme is "CZG's anus".

I'm wondering what happened on #tf to have such hilarious theme :D 

Random off topic question, it's bugging me since this morning: The name of the map with the awkward green Chton puzzle where you have to run around in circles pushing buttons in different combinations to have all the electric bars line up,it is a base map and it came out not so long ago (I'd say around 2006/7?). It's driving me nuts.

Anyone who can help will be awarded a unique, custom cast

You know you want it.

Now choose the one to be cast.

Thanks a lot! 

Less talk, more mapping! 

I guess I should have read that link before clicking it (I read it after it started loading and since my PC at home is down I'm at work) so it really worried me that it'd be an actual anus.

Phew! 

I liked the whole Blair Witch/Shambler in the corner. Things deteriorated from there - ouch! 

Just to let the many, many, mappers planning to map for this event who haven't quite finished or sent the map over to me yet...

I will be awake and on my computer early into tomorrow morning , so if you need a bit more time to finish up what you've got in the works (or to start something), you have it! 

None from me this week, btw, but maybe I can do one over the course of this coming week (I'll be out of town next weekend so that's a bust.) 

none from me either. i'm still burnt out on quake atm and i want to finish a doom map i'm making. 

in that case I'll zip it up and post it in the next little while! 

just realised I'm a day early on that!

hold off? or release it anyway?
