Only one entry per contestant is allowed.

so sadly

I'd like to build a map entirely out of meshes (save blocking volumes/etc.) - is this allowed?
(edit: just noticed in the other thread it says you can. Will carry on then!)

Hello. I would like to participate but there is very short time to get familiar with everything (new editor, new game..) so the question is: Can the deadline be postponed? like to the end of December?

Unfortunately not. Everything has to be judged as well and done before the holidays start.

Apologies; I've just read over all of the literature about the contest (Facebook, announcement article, this and the other thread) and can't see a link anywhere to sign up. Have I missed it or is creating a post signing up?

No, my bad. Signing up is making a post on this forum with your map name and real name plus nick. You've already done that.

Time for 31 Castle and give your friend Charon a nudge. Would love to see him return one last time

I cannot guarantee I will be able to do a Quake 3 map soon. I am already working 7 days a week on multiple projects and starting to see the light at the end of my sanity.

This is kind of facinating, like, where do the abstract map names come from? For example, if you were to enter this competition, name your map "31 Castle" and win, your map would forever be "the 31" or "castle 31" or whatever the nickname. Why the name? Nobody but the few lucky know.

Say, are we able to release test versions of our maps? It might be useful to do so for polishing our maps.

Yes, nearing the last couple of weeks I'll rent a server so you all can playtest your maps.

I don't have an account there so I don't know if they were released for general use. You would have to ask the original author for permission. If he's cool with that then there's no problem in using these. Also make sure you are allowed to modify them and what kind of credit is required.

If I want to have a soft start by doing a map before I start working on my contest entry, where do I post that? Can I just post it in the same thread as my entry or should I put that somewhere else?
I think it would be easier (for me) to keep everything in a single thread but I don't want to accidentally break the one entry per contestant rule!
