Can you put up an announcement on the Home page to let people know the voting has started? I've been trying to guess who did which map, and I think I know who did the one I voted for :P

I personally can not update anything outside of the foundry. Andy is the man we want, and he's usually on top of things so i don't expect it will be long.

Why does the poll allow 7 options?

I did not notice when I voted... Does it? And will it let you enter it?

Number 4 needs some border fixing, but they aren't too bad. #3 I think is the best of them.

Okay, I'm confused. Why would it not allow 7 options? Do you not see 7 entries?

Why would you want to vote all 7 entries, it would effectively be the same as voting none.

Oh, okay. I see what you mean now. Apparently, I'm an idiot. I thought you meant that you didn't see all 7 entries.

They changed it to 3? I see, "You may select 1 option". Maybe they changed it again. I haven't tried to vote yet. Having a hard time deciding! I thought 1 was good, then I saw 3 and 7. Wow. Actually, they're all good, those are just my favorites. Congrats to all the mapmakers, these are some really fine entries.

Yes, when I saw this yesterday, you could pick up to 3 of the 7. Now it is limited to a single choice. Do these changes to the poll reset the counts?

What did #4 do??

So why is 3 different game play than any other map? Seems odd to me.

Lol. I didn't even notice that. That's hilarious.

There are a few different spelling/border issues in most of the entries, this can all be hammered out in the Final Forge. The poll is to just pick which graphics style is to be used.

I did the original XML for this map back when it first tried getting through the foundry and Industrial Helix asked me to do it this time as well. I have the original, approved + Forza checked XML saved to fix up the gameplay/name issues later on.


Good luck to the entries.

What one did you vote for? And who do you think it is? No wait don't say who it is, that will spoil it for everyone else ;)

Like the style of 7, as it's realistic with land size and location. But voted for 3 for graphics (Don't like the dots though). 4 was close, but just a little lacking overall. And how did Prince Edward Island get put in Nova Scotia? That would be hard to swallow for an Islander.

I really don't understand the taste for #3, the whole feel of the map is so bland.
And the pink dot's are horrible.
