I was going to enter, but don't have the time. This is not an entry. This is about 6 hours on and off.

Should be sometime Sunday when we will get to see everyone's entry.

Before then, anyone care to guess how many entries there will be.
I would guess 6.

You been drinking in the morning DiM :?:

Would be nice to have that many, and will be happy to finally get to see your 2 hour job. As I said to gimil, probably far better than my work which took a little longer.

Nice looking map Rj.... Shame you did not make it in time. I am not going to make it in time either.

it seems my optimism was indeed unfounded. i looked at past competitions and your prediction of 6 participants seems to be right on the money.

I think 6 might be optimistic. Realistic number is more likely 4 or 5. Depends if 1 or 2 guys get there maps in on time.

I submitted mine yesterday – that should make it at least two participants. :!:

15 minutes until the deadline guys!

Any last minute entries coming that way?

deadline passed.

when do we get the poll?
or at least see the entries?

also don't forget to rename the files as entry1, entry2 and so on and host them on your own photobucket account otherwise if you use the links given by the participants people might get clues as to who actually designed them. and i want to guess

Thanks DiM, but this isn't the first time I have done this

All the entries and the poll will go up sometime tomorrow. Good luck to all those that entered.

it's the first time i see you do it (i think) :mrgreen:

at least tell us how many people entered the competition. i'm actually curious if the gloomy predictions of koontz will prove to be real or will my unfounded enthusiasm actually turns out to be true

by **gimil** on Sat Oct 22, 2011 7:39 pm

6 entries in total. Seems that Koontz is on the money

by **natty dread** on Sun Oct 23, 2011 12:23 am

Well it's better than 4

Well, that's me out of the comp then. Used up all my luck with the guess. :lol:

How long before the entries are up.

A couple of weeks ago when Rj showed me his map, it got my competitive juices flowing and I put something together. But, like Rj, I decided not to enter for a variety of reasons. Anyway, DiM said you could do the basics in 2-3 hours, and that's exactly how much of my time I gave this. Obviously a lot of missing - bridges, territory names, connections - and it looks like crap, but two hours is plenty of time to knock out the basics if you have the gameplay in hand. And probably 30 minutes of my time was spent trying to figure out where to accurately put the lines of latitude and longitude.

Looking forward to seeing the entries!

Not very subtle.

Also, you need to check your spelling thrice over!

The entries are up! You all have 1 week to vote for your favorite!

Good luck to all those that have entered!

by **DiM** on Sun Oct 23, 2011 6:52 pm

some very interesting styles.

Well let's see I like #2 because ______ did it. #3 well hmmmm.... I think _______ did it. I'm pretty sure ______ did that one! But I think # 6 is the most original one in the group which is calling my vote for that reason IDK. Will have to look closer at them later.
