wow, that put some pressure on.
To clarify;
These are usually speed maps that are complete in 9 days, by a variety for people at different skill levels.
The map should be playable at the of 9 days, so needs spawn points.
To add to playability it should include support for ctf and ts game modes.
The map should include stairs, interesting use of stairs recommended.
Map made best as possible with in a 9 day period, and explain what you would add/modify to your map to polish/improve if you win.
This weekend start, suitable Diggs?
I'm taking this as you're running with this thing (which is fine by me, happy to run these things when there's enough interest, but it's less work to just be able to participate.)
Just a thought, if there's going to be real prizes you may want to give a little lead time, set up a firm timeframe and try to drum up some additional interest over in the other mapping threads.

It is whatever works for you guys/girls. I just want to encourge the process and make it a bit more interesting. Personally, I would like to see a playable map come out of it but I don't want to dictate the competition just make it more interesting. I'll figure out the payment logistics, you guys decide how you want the competition to go.
Technically, I can map. But, I don't have the time, patience or creativity to do so. I would like to encourage those that do. I support the developers and the servers I game on. I have supported other map competitions on other games and really meant to do this long ago for UrT.
BTW - Easiest for me is to deposit directly into a persons Paypal account. They do not need a Paypal sellers account. How common is Paypal in other parts of the world? Is Paypal just a US thing? Even if a person does not have an account, they are free to set up and there are other options.
That's way generous of you. It might be easiest to do a credit at an online retailer, i.e. an e-mail gift card at Amazon or some big site with international presence.
