Yeah..
I didn't even think about using the contest review until after I wrote this one. :/

Also, I forgot,
to all the winners, congratulations.

Let's all be happy then
that super doesn't submit anymore maps.
Really man, if you think you can do it better, go make a contest of your own.
I applaud Rocket_Thumped for this extremely fun contest (over 100 submissions, that's got to mean something). Judging is and always will be subjective, so just go along with it. I like this map, I think it fits the review, and I also think there were better maps. But that doesn't mind, I'm not a judge, I'm just a contestant. (btw, super, I didn't find any 'muse' map of yours, so what are you bitching about anyway?)
r_t and all the judges, thanks.

I don't care whether you think I'm a fool or not, i'll say or do what I want. If the judging was based on the context / feature of this NUMACON contest I would have been satisfied along with half the community, instead it is a half-arse review and a map that hardly relates to what the muse feature really conveys. I'm not entering anymore because of this pathetic sense of judgement. Flame me all you want, you're wasting your time.

You really need to crawl out of minty's arse. :)
Stop bitching guys! Mintnut wins by default, anyways. :P
Honestly?
He's bitching about one of the most popular and enjoyed contests in NUMA history.
Almost every person who took part had a lot of fun creating and playing maps, and just because the results weren't to his liking he makes one of the most pathetically bitter responses I've ever read.

AS a stand alone map, it is /very/ cool.
In the context of the competition though, it feels a bit generic. I mean, how many maps like this were there? Heaps.
So while I'm absolutely going to give this map a 4, because that is what it deserves as a map, in my opinion, I don't think it really stood out of the crowd conceptually very much, if at all. :S
Having said that, the switch under the mine is the coolest thing I have ever seen.

Congratulations!
This map is worth it!

Adding to my comment below
I am never entering another map in a NUMACON again, it was just pathetic.
2010-06-26
Ha.
/Definitely/ should have used the contest review.
2010-06-26
remaniac has a point.
It should be the contest review... You've made the map out to be something different...
2010-06-26
Completely agree with ATOB
Major fuck-up rocket_thumped. 2/5

Why was the review
not the contest review?
2010-06-25
PS
Apologies to IWTB if I've started some never ending debate on your page! :p
2010-06-25
Well that's kind of my point
the review was a littler too literal and contained too many checkpoints. Had it been more ambiguous it would have been so much easier to go for the feel of it.
Still, it was a very enjoyable contest that produced some outstanding maps.
And sure, put me down for the next round's judging. I'll be more than happy to do it.

This is basically the attitude I had.
" ..just that the review in not (definitively) a checklist, and some kind of license should be (imo) allowed regarding certain points. I mean, heck, most reviews in this style attribute maps with features they just don't contain. "
Personally I was looking more towards the maps capturing the feel of the review than the definition of the words contained within it. I can't speak for the other judges though.
If you'd like to judge next round I'll put you down right now.

And..
I certainly don't agree with that first line in the review. This map misses the "story is just beginning part" where other maps covered that.
You say I took it very literally, well, that's true, but the way the review was written didn't give much room for interpretation and there were just too many points to cover.
That was the weakest aspect of this contest, imo, the review should have been more ambiguous to allow for greater depth of interpretation. As it stood, the only way to /really/ satisfy all aspects of the contest /was/ to take it literally and cover the review's very stringent wording.

I LOVE IT
it's cool how the collab before (WITH ME<3) kinda inspired this? lawl
2010-06-25
That's not what I'm disappointed in.
It's the overall quality in general, I honestly think these maps were amongst the weaker of the entries in all categories.
That's subjective though, of course, and I could have put myself forward as a judge.
Perhaps I will for the next one.

atob,
likeness to the review is only 1/3 of the equation. I understand you took it extremely literally, the judges did not.
2010-06-25
Congrats.
I'm actually a little disappointed with the results, including my own win, but I won't knock it too much.
Cool contest.
Cool contest.
2010-06-25
Congratulations!
What a great contest, can't wait for next month's!
2010-06-25
Well deserved
I played this, but forgot to post my agd. Maybe I'll get around to it later. Anyways, congratz on the win.
2010-06-25
Eh my comment makes me sound like an ass
I stand by what I said, but congrats anyway.
2010-06-25

mmmhhhmmmm.
2010-06-25
CONGRATS!
2010-06-25
