TFC was a funny map contest.
I wonder when we can do something like that at OpenArena.
(A map contest, obviously
)
It will be the "Make Something OpenArena Contest" 2KX lol...
You know i tossed around this very idea about 2 weeks ago.
I could probably put together a really decent prize package for this depending on the turnout. The contest wouldn't be able to end until around the new year to allow for everyone who entered to compete the project and submit their entry. Would probably take at least a week to determine the winners.
I myself would require at least 10 entries for something like this. That would make it more fair, and create a 1/10 odds of winning.
Supposing there were 10 interested entries, I could easily put together a prize ladder of something like the following.
1st place $50.00 US via PayPal
2nd place $25.00 US via PayPal
3rd place $10.00 US via PayPal
Depending on the turnout, I might be able to scratch up some extra bonus prizes for the top 3 entries. Stuff like some graphics cards, ram, or maybe even a completely custom OA gaming PC case.
Also,
If fromhell will grant OA's full support on this, It might be a possibility that the top 3 placed entries would be added to the next OA release. But, again, that's up to fromhell.
Please post your comments. The more the better. I'll have another look at this thread in about a week to check its progress. fromhell, if you could, pm me so we can talk about OA's support on this if you deem it as a good idea.
