I think we should have another contest, since it has been so quite around here for ages, unless everyone is working on super awesome secret maps they don't want to tell anyone about.

I agree. Maps have been coming out to slow lately. And I suck at mapping.

I have an idea: it could be a competition of using the extra cubes made by Kayaia since there is no map using them out yet

Do we need a moderator to start a competition or can anyone do it?

Anyone can do it, of course. We don't even need to do it on TWP.

However, an admin could throw in a supporter-account as a reward.

I kinda like the idea of using the fancy-spancy cubes.

Only one problem with the cubes: the second better skins are not available.

Come up with a good idea and I'll throw in a prize (Steam gift, Portal t-shirt, etc.).

The most innovative portal chamber. (Not something huge, just something neat and original.)

or

The hardest test chamber to beat.

We've already done most innovative, last year
hardest chamber to beat is a pretty good idea, but only if it actually is beatable.
We could make it story based contest, the winner is the one with the best story.
We only have 8 days to decide

Not nesecarily, There's no arbitrary rule that the contest HAS to be a month.

And i like the idea of hardest, but it's not specific enough

Hardest to figure out? (Hard to measure, as we all have different ideas of a hard puzzle)
Hardest to accomplish? (Not frustrating, but hard)

What about

Best Non-Portalable portal map?

Here is an idea.

A map that is the most unique looking and playing.

We can do just "best overall".
