The idea just wasn't there. Good luck to everyone else.
@breezeep
I PM'd you the map file. Note there is no .lit file. Did not used any colored lights.
My Map Is Done! :)

Will do separate post, if this one is not gonna be on this pack. Weekend was a bit busy yet I missed the start, but this one is made under 24 nonetheless and theme is wizard.
UTC+2 Is My Timezone

There has been a bit of confusion with the calculations.

Here is the one I attempted to this jam, previous one was test map made in 20h earlier.

Start time should be posted in advance and the theme named as soon as it begins. Start 21:00 saturday, finish 23:59 sunday.

Breezeep did BOTH of those things.

everyone should chill out and be a little less critical of Breezeep imo. He took initiative, set a theme, organized, even made screenshots which I never did. I think he should be commended for trying to galvanize this more off the cuff variation on SM creation, especially if you guys want more packs to be organized!
Also what Negke said about files etc being unnecessary bologna.
Guys

SM180: A Map Repus Can Enjoy
#3909 posted by skacky on 2017/12/13 19:36:00
If you've been over to Quaddicted recently you may have noticed that a certain guest named Repus has quite the unusual tastes. Let's make him happy by making speedmaps he can enjoy!
id1 please.
Deadline: 12/15/2017 23:59 GMT+1
(Also this is meant as light-hearted fun, don't be overly mean/insulting to them).
#3910 posted by skacky on 2017/12/13 19:51:21
It goes without saying that anything that's outright insulting towards Repus, such as centerprints, or levels mocking them in a mean way will be thrown out.
Repus?

I've played early Tronyn's levels back in late 90's, and I can say that not much has changed. The level making skill has increased, but overall this level lacks creativity. Boring gameplay, primitive architecture. What I like in many modern levels, that you can run into a large space, make monsters fight each other and then leave. In this level every location is hard (and boring) to go through. You have to kill all the monsters, and the process is very plain. I'd say the Tronyns needs to think "beyond one room", to have a wider and reacher vision of a level. I finished playing this boredom just because I started. What a waste of time!!!
and a level by the mysterious Guest himself: https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/building.html
A Tough Crowd....

Well if your going to make a jam for Repus under the assumption he likes shorter maps, he just pissed on the entirety of jam 5 for being too short:
"Did not like any of the levels."
https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/retrojam5.html
Seriously there is no logic to this almost schizophrenic fluctuation between praising some maps and hating entire groups of others. Intentional trolling or deranged person, I don't know...
Did not like
hating
Don't be ridiculous.
Misunderstandings
#3914 posted by Redfield on 2017/12/14 08:05:08
Ok I didn't mean to come off as outrageous,
And I'm not trying to curtail someones free speech. What I'm saying is nothing could compel me to come forward and dismiss such a swath of maps, without finding SOMETHING to like. I cannot understand the psychology behind it, and I find it dubious and unrealistic that someone could genuinely dislike this free content, and yet they still bother to play an ancient 20+ year old game. I simply do not find it genuine.
I also find it impossible to follow the logic behind this persons "likes" and "do not likes" as there appears to be no understandable, or reproducible criteria behind what is good and what is bad.
To some it up: I'm having trouble with this Simpson character. Is he supposed to have some sort of neurological impairment? Like Rain Man or Awakenings?
Same Here

Find it hard to see a common thought process there, so i'll probably contribute with anything non related.
Or maybe the theme could be about doing something strange or incoherent? That be feasible.
Well,
#3916 posted by Cocerello on 2017/12/14 14:06:58
after checking around his last over dozen of comments, while i see how he isn't well valued because of not liking some popular maps and i haven't played them myself so i don't know if what he says makes sense or not, it doesn't seem to be that he blurts out things out of rage, fandom, or childish behaviour like typical in this cases or that he is on the level of hkbattousai's comments. So i don't think what i wrote previously as true anymore.
So far i can say that:
- He prefers action packed ones.
- Is picky about the variety of encounters.
- Hunts for secrets.
- Doesn't complain much about some extra difficulty or a bit of ammo management.
- Don't like much the harder traps.
- Handle or like exploration in small quantities.
- Seems to me that he prefers ideas over solidity of maps, as long as the brushwork isn't simple.
You can work with that info, but i don't think he like speedmaps to begin with, so it will be a challenge.
This Is Silly

Speedmapping is good. But let's be honest, the theme is really just about calling someone out for having a different taste and being opinionated about it. Even if they may be inconsistent or whatever, his comments state what he liked or disliked and they don't come off as trollish like some others on the site. Putting a highlight on this by means of using it as an official speedmapping theme blows it out of proportion -it's a non-issue after all- and serves to prove his point on how everyone seems to be expected to have a generally positive opinion on maps. I get that this isn't meant to be overly serious, but still feels below us.
Meaning
#3918 posted by negke on 2017/12/14 17:11:26
Calling it "A map that someone with a highly refined taste can enjoy" would be more appropriate while keeping the ironic undertone.
What's The Difference?
#3919 posted by skacky on 2017/12/14 18:38:33
Everyone knows who we're talking about either way.
#3920 posted by negke on 2017/12/14 19:07:02
The difference is not calling him directly by name and drawing attention, not on a personal level. Better as an inside joke.
Always trust negke to be a total killjoy.

Well since it seems that REDACTED(the Quaddicted reviewer in question) = Simon Cowell then to avoid using anyones Quaddicted alias maybe call it:
-Maps for Simon Cowell
-American Idoljam
