Speed Map Building Contest: Ideas?

Anyone else thinks that a contest similar to the speed terrain contests could work for maps? For example, a contest could require that the contestants can only use 1 ROTV and 1 VW. Then the community would vote on the best of them, and there could even be prizes. Ideas?

What are the prizes you would be giving away?

I said prizes could be a possibility. Keep in mind that this is just an idea to discuss, not a definite. If I could support prizes, I definitely would.

Re: Speed Map Building Contest: Ideas?

Sounds like a good idea to me. Personally, I couldn't care less about the prizes though.

Re: Speed Map Building Contest: Ideas?

If you want to truly make it a speed contest you should announce when the contest is going to start and give everyone just 1 hour to complete their map.

Re: Speed Map Building Contest: Ideas?

While that would be eneough time to build a map it would be a stretch to upload it. Maybe 5 hours or so.

It takes a long time( at least for me) to put it into virtualscape.

So you build the map with the actual tiles and then put it into VS?

Why not just take pictures of the map and upload it like they do in the speed customs contest? VS is too much trouble for a contest.

Re: Speed Map Building Contest: Ideas?

Either way can do. Contestants should be able to choose which format they want to show it in, whether it be virtualscape or real life pictures. After the contest, however, it would be good to have at least the winner to have their map VS'ed for the community.

Edit: For me, it takes about half an hour to convert a small sized map from real life to vs, so maybe like an hour and a half?
