I had to do reality things yesterday :(
(again why I say just picking a theme for the week and letting people map as they have time is best)
Those Textures
are from the horrific "Aftershock for Quake" pack...
I used to play that a bit when it came out (and I was a lot younger), but I reinstalled it late last year to see if it was still good. It wasn't.

What I think would work is to announce a list of restrictions for the week.
Like:
A) Use only knave.wad
B) No grunts, no knights
C) Must include a quad
Stuff like that, you know? Then you have a week to build something that fits the requirements.

Scampie and I are to blame? You should have come up with a more inspiring theme! It's your fault :P
I like the idea of having a list of restrictions that are announced for the week's speed mapping event. A week is a long time if you are single and unemployed or a student, but when you are working or have a family, it's not *that* long. Especially now there are less people involved in the Q1 mapping scene, and we're just as distributed as we ever were, having no strict time and allowing maps to be made with whatever time you happen to have during the week is good I think.
A 1-Week Heads Up Is Good...

A) only use ID1 wad
B) mix base and medieval/metal/wizard design elements and or monsters
C) include a quad seems good to me!

Alternatively we can use willem's restrictions, or others somebody wants to compose
just let us know
He Was Making An Example...
I think.
id1 and knave are a little obvious... Would be awesome to see something very underused, like DKT3 or kingpin...

That would be fine with me. Could someone upload a wc 3.3 version for me. I have had no luck converting textures.
Also open to alternatives depending n what people prefer.
Try This...

Hopefully that should work, I used to us WC3.3 a lot before TB came out.

So it's not a speedmap.
1 quad + rubicon texture set.
Here We Go Again...

It's always the same, lots of suggestions but no real decision and eventually no one maps at all. The successful phases of speedmapping in the past went down because someone took the lead and made clear announcements. Not "hey, let's" or "what about", but SM169 - theme: make a map using at least two textures from Knave, DKTe3, Rubicon2 and Fury. Send it in by Monday morning. Bam!

You could correctly guess Spirits email. Trust me. First logical thing to spring to mind is it.
Oh Right..
I'm being dense today... there's a clue in his profile.
