for my map in the contest (Insomniac_Hq) i would like to copy one of my friend's (Bad_Candy_Demon) smaller builds to put in my map, such as his DNA strand. I have permission from him to do this so i was wondering wether or not it is within the rules to do this.

also i am probably going to ditch that map and start a new one, but leave it to be the official IC1 hq.

And CTS you spelt my name wrong... you put:

-evilmanmania

it is evilmaniaman, you got the man and mania wrong.

Let's stick with the 128x128x128 volume size. Skittlez, I used a 256x64x128 pixel map and was just barely able to squeeze in your build from Roman. Only problem was that 1 or 2 blocks in the width had to be sacrificed in order to fit. If you can live with the 1 or 2 blocks being chopped off the sides, then it should be good to go.

Whoops, dyslexia got to me :P Fixed it. I'd like to keep all the maps entirely built by their creators. If we open the door to letting people use other builds (with permission), then I can easily see contestants grabbing amazingly built structures and just rearranging them around on their map, rather than using a little creativity and building something of their own - which is what this whole contest is about; creative originality.

Just a reminder to all participants, there is less than a week left for the building portion of the contest. Use the remaining time wisely!

I was looking through some of the maps out there, and I'm going to extend the deadline by two days just so everyone can get their builds finished. Tuesday at 11:59pm Eastern US time. No further extensions.



Also, more info on the voting process will follow in the next day or so.

Did we lose the old personal maps when we merged or are they still there? If they're gone, I probably wouldn't have anything to use. I haven't been able to find my "kesteve."

Woah, where did you come from?!


Good to see you're back. Your map has been archived due to lack of use, but can be retrieved  :)

Random question. Didn't the contest end yesterday?

CTSquirrel

Yes, the building part of the contest ended last night at 11:59pm US Eastern Time. All we need now is for the contestants to upload their pics and briefly describe their builds in the following link:


http://insomniacservers.com/index.php/topic,202.0.html


I'd like to get those pics uploaded as quickly as possible so we can start the voting process. If you (or anyone really) see one of the contestants in-game, let them know to post in the voting thread please.
