FAQ

- Do we have to submit both images (large & small)?
No, you have to submit just one image, up to you if develop the big or the small (or both).


- Is it ok to change territory names (for accuracy) as long as the connections etc. stay the same?
Yes, placement of army circles (if applicable), territory names and bonus names can be changed as long as the current gameplay remains the same.
It means that connections, borders, impassables, bonus values etc etc can not be changed.


- Images have to contain 88 numbers on the army circles with colours randomly distributed?
No, numbers on the map are not mandatory.
Up to you if you want to add them to ensure that colors you used are ok. In any case the winning map will be checked and if some troops are not clearly visible it will be asked to the mapmaker to change the colors.

It seems that some people has problems to finish the map in just 2 weeks, since I didn't give a prior notice.

For this reason I'm going to extend this contest to a total of 3 weeks.

The new deadline is CC Time: 2012-03-11 18:00:00


I've updated also the first post. ;)

Just few hours left before the deadline. 8-[

Submit your map before the deadline, or it won't be considered for submission. Remember that your map has not to be perfect for now and that it can be improved later, after the first public poll, so if you are missing just some details, do not be afraid and send me the PM! ;)

The eventual winner will have to sort any problems that are spotted when the contest part is over. Tweaking of colours is easy enough.

I agree should be easy to fix. With that said will changing the colors of some of these maps change the look of them overall?

I have guessed 3 of them. Will be good to see if we are right when we get to see the authors at the end.

Funny how one of the maps now has more votes then the two leader from the last contest. And we are only 2 days into the vote.

Please wait for a week, then you can comment what you want.

Hello,

The poll has ended, the CC Community at large has spoken and now we have 3 maps qualified for the 2nd round of this contest!


show: poll result


Now, I am going to send a message to the 3 mapmakers that submitted respectively the MAP2, MAP3 and MAP7 and give them a couple of days to improve their maps a bit more, if they want to.

The mapmakers will be asked to send to me their improved versions via PM before Saturday 24 March 2012 @ 18:59

CC Time: 2012-03-24 18:59:00

On Sunday, I'll send the final map images to the jurors via pm for the final voting phase.
May the best map win!

While an good natured shout out isn't really a bad thing... but while there is judging going on for the finals of said competition this could be used in an improper way to sway votes or unintentionally leak who author which revamp.

[Merged] with the other North America Revamp Topic.

I'll unlock this thread when I've received all the votes from jurors. As soon as no one can be influenced anymore, you can discuss the contest and the submitted maps and say what you want! ;)
Thanks in advance for the collaboration.

Just to keep you all in the loop of things, I'm still waiting for a response from a couple of jurors.
If I don't receive a pm from them in the next few hours, I will proceed further.

So, expect to know what is the winning map/the winning mapmaker very soon! :D

Both them will receive a Image General Achievement Medal for reaching the 2nd stage of this contest



And with a incredible total of 214 points, that is a confirmation of the previous public poll, the WINNING MAP of this revamp contest is:

I would take the occasion to thank the jurors group, the CAs and AndyDufresne for their help.
A big thank you goes to all the mapmakers who have submitted their maps in this contest: bruceswar, CJ Lues, DiM, natty dread, noddaclue, samuelc812 and Tisha.
