You are twisting up things here in my opinion. The judges have spent loads of their time on judging these maps and we should thank them for it and appriciate it. We shouldn't espect any extra feedback or what so ever, but embrasse it when we do recieve some. I think its up to the judges themself to make their judgement public or not and wether they spent extra time on giving the mappers feedback or not. I am personally very curious about how each map scored, but dont bother if my curiousity cant be satisfied. But dam.. here we go again, discussing haha, lets avoid this shall we? And praise the gods that have made it to the first place ?

Contratulations to everyone who participated. The bar was set even higher this time and the ammount of quality maps is incredible. This time I couldn't even put my finger on top 6 yet alone top 4. I guess the judges had a very hard time with so many great maps.
Thanks to everyone involved with organizing the contest,  people that took care of the faceit hubs for the entire contest  (you guys are  the quiet heroes) and everyone who helped to deliver great maps either with their feedback, running playtests or with words of encouragement ❤️
 

Congrats to everyone!

Congrats to everyone!

Congratz to all! I wish there were more maps to be allowed in the top 4, so much good content this year! I think the top 11 can all be proud on what we reached this year. 
@judges, will we be able to see the rating form and get feedback if you have some? Thanks for giving us your time and effort! Even though us mappers and community doesnt always agree on how this go or what so ever, its still being appriciated what you guys do for us ❤️

"May Hurg Be With you~"

Fantastic, I would only suggest to put the subscribe button at the top as well, or even better have a sticky bar that sits there wherever you are scrolling. Can be achieved super easily in CSS no need of JavaScript, if is a page you coded yourself.
The other thing I’d comment is the title of the page needs more word-tracking because a few are very close and look like a long word between spacing and characters stroke.
Best of luck with the tournament ✌? 

We released an update for the top 10 deadline!
 
It mainly focuses on improving the art and optimisation, but also includes some minor fixes too.
@TanookiSuit3 and @Huvaligen have done a great job with the art, and have given it the run down effect we were aiming for!
It's been a blast.
 

We've just submitted a last (for now) update to our entry.

I've also created a webpage, similar to the one for the initial release announcement, showing the changes that have been made since then and now.
Take a look!

Hey there! 

We just released a new update before the deadline is there!  
I'd like to thank the awesome staff from the FaceIt Mapcore Hub for the organisation and ofcourse the awesome people for playing the maps and giving us feedback and stats to work with.
For that special thanks to @Thewhaleman & @JimWood for providing the demo parser, its been very useful!
We have done some small layout changes and heard some birds whispering they want more colors, so there you have it!
@jd40 & @jakuza have been working their asses off to create new cool assets and doing some more environment work on the map, so a big shout out to those two amazing artists!
Enough talking, time to check out some screens and perhaps have a look ingame!

Cheers







 

I would say all of the examples on mirage were contested areas

I went back and found some pretty bad bugs involving run boosts.
