That's a great idea. Sir Heroscape and I have already talked about play testing even after this contest to see which ones are really tournament ready. Regardless the top ten are being used for our tournament whether something like the BoV would approve them or not, but if we feel they are really viable we may being pushing some of them to the BoV.

Uncapped columns would disqualify many. The Warzones group would still take them.

[TREX]

Uncapped columns just make big ruins.

Ruins of The Great Wall of Valhalla
Requirements: 1 RoTV, 1 FoTA, 1 RtTFF
? glyphs are Treasure Glyphs

Erected to withstand the continued onslaught of Utgar's forces of destruction, The Great Wall of Valhalla was renown throughout the 7 General's camps. It had withstood waves of Heavy Gruts and Marro Drones. Many unrelenting Wolves of Badru met their demise when attempting to bring down a piece of the wall with a POUNCE! Jotun once made a mighty wild swing, missing his foe and smashing his sword directly into The Wall, but still The Wall was unscathed! THE WALL. THE WALL. THE GREAT WALL OF VALHALLA. It filled Utgar with rage, until his growing fury incited within him a master plan. He called forth his most powerful weapon. The Deathwalker 7000. He rolled a 20... The Once Great Wall of Valhalla.

There will always be a place in my heart for DW7000. He has a habit of misfiring but he's always a fun scare tactic. Haha

I did say 11:59pm...haha but we'll let it slide. Thanks for the submission!

With Skylord163, we finished at 22 maps if my math is correct. I am glad that I spent a good chunk of time today judging the maps, so I don't have to worry about it anymore.

@NecroBlade @GeneralRolando @master4sword @Robber @Dad_Scaper @BiggaBullfrog @Sherman Davies @Rÿchean @capsocrates @TheSparkleInYourWater @Yodaking
(Let me know if I missed you)

Now What? @TREX , @Tiranx , and I will be judging the maps within the next couple days according to the criteria in the OP. Once the Top 10 have been selected, we'll make an official post of those 10 maps. We will then open a poll for the community to vote on the best map out of the Top 10. The winner will be awarded TREX's dice tower.

[TREX]

Submitted scores to @Sir Heroscape , haven't you also @Tiranx . This is exciting indeed. I can't wait for the polls to go up, so many cool entries.

My map had a back story and I can't see the OM pic you posted.
