Personally, I'd prefer the possibility of having more than 1 map (3-4?) per entries, more for advanced versions than long stories.

Perhaps I was unclear
This isn't the final rules. This isn't even any specific rules. It's a general theme for the contest. Specifics will be decided after the vote for general theme is done.

I voted for Van's since it highlighted custom content. Make's it different then the TWP one. Just make sure you add "Must be a map for Portal/Portal 2." later.

Yeah; I think people want maps/map packs only; no SFM or mods or anything.

All right, the votes are in. Looks like the theme of the contest will be Custom Content Caboodle. I'll consult with the other members of the staff to work out rule specifics. Expect to hear more within a week.

How's everyone feel about the contest running from Friday the 21st to October 31st? Gives a little more than a month, and taking into account school that should be enough.
If you have any objections, post them quick.

I don't have any objections, good amount of time and also gives us time to play TF2 halloween update.

One last motion made on my part for an autumn/halloween/whatever theme, since we're ending on that particular day.

I would, but I think this contest should be as general as possible to keep it open. We can do theme contests later

Had more homework than anticipated so I'm delaying the contest announcement at least a day. Bear with me on this

I'm reusing my textures from the mAL Mapping Collab in part. It's a little tricky to incorporate since the theme was "abstract" but I thought they were cool and didn't want to waste them.

So long as you've never used them in a map you released at any point, it'd be fine to use something you were already working on before the contest.

Shouldn't there be an announcement on the mAI (and possibly mAL) Steam group page?
