Ok, so I have a few questions regarding the contest:

[list=1:3ra80vjj][:3ra80vjj] Does it have to be the length of 3 chambers like you mention in the Competition Rules? Since I can't be bothered in putting in a $300 effort for a chance of $30 and a signed poster, it is going to be short.[/:m:3ra80vjj]
[:3ra80vjj] If I do include custom content does it have to be made by me? I want to include a heart thumping noise and I believe that may be a bit hard to record myself - probably would use stock sounds for it.[/:m:3ra80vjj][/list:o:3ra80vjj]
Don't threat about me not making custom content. I have already made a custom script and are planning to record custom Voice acting.

You can do something like Tornate, have 3 short maps that showcase custom content. Of course, it would need to be better then Tornate if you wish the contest. But that an idea on what we are looking for.

Portal 1 map in progress.

I don't think it was addressed before, pardon me if it has, but can the $30 steam game become two $15 games or something else like that?

I've got Reep, Colol, and...I think it was t3x. Correct me if I'm wrong on that third count. I will update the contest page with the new informations today...maybe. Definitely by tomorrow.

Colol and Reep fo' shure. Forgive me for being a jerk (or don't), but what are t3x's koalifications? Its always nice to have famous people (or Reep and Colossal if that fails).

Both him and kek (it was one of them) have shown they are capable of both producing and evaluating quality mapping work. As I recall, one or both of them were reviewers in the Days of Yore.

...which reminds me, I should set up some sort of Official Review System at some point.

Anyways, I am definitely not a judge.[u:a1tmwij2] I plan on entering[/u:a1tmwij2].
Kek is gone for a weekend, so you might wait to get the word from him, but I am certain he intended being a judge.
As far as my understanding goes - judges were supposed to be reep, p0p, kek and omni absolutely not.

And yes, back then me and Kek were local mods of the map reviews section at mAL.

Does mAI have any special promotional overlays or materials we could use to advertise in our maps?

I could make some if not.
