Teamliquid Map Contest 8 - Page 10

Clarifications/Changes:
Rush distance for Rush maps has been changed from "about 35-50 seconds" to "about 35 seconds".

The definition of Macro map has been changed to: "A map that favors defensive play and encourages players to reach end game unit compositions."

New Rule: You may use permanent neutral abilities onto all maps such as Force Field or Blinding Cloud. However, note that if these features cause performance issues on lower end computers, these maps may be edited or not considered for ladder.

Just posting here in hopes that someone involved with this contest sees:

It's 1.5 hours to go and we still don't have the maps for the tournament.

Edit: we were given a LOCKED google doc with no access, and no way to access it.

You misunderstand, we haven't been given the maps they want us to use. There's meant to be different map pools for each tournament/round

I'd just hand pick myself but this is Blizzard sponsored in coordination with Team Liquid, so I can't :-)

according to the TLMC thread your tournament wasn't even supposed to start until the 20th, so it seems like there are some scheduling problems going on

That's the foreigner part that will feature the entire map pool (and is broken up into 3-4 days)

The Korean one was intended to feature a portion of the map pool and focus less on those maps for the foreigner one.

But hey it's not like I have a contract with blizzard and know what I'm doing or anything ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Oh, I see, the issue is more complex than what Mapmakers have been discussing, I'll leave you to Monk then. Me and the other guys are in the process of contacting them. For the record, there is a contact form on the TLMC8 thread if you haven't tried that already.

Monk gave me a privated google doc link that nobody can access hours ago and hasn't replied to the multiple messages I've sent him since. I doubt he'll be reached unless someone from TL has his phone number and sees this mess.

Trying to talk to blizzard about allowing me to just pick some of the maps for testing sake myself but so far nobody feels comfortable doing that.

Working on solutions, still finding none, poke everyone you can or else we'll have to cancel the entire event :\

Monk is the most responsive person I've ever met in charge of any aspect of any community, he was probably sleeping :3

And as for these maps, from what i see so far they are really good and a lot of unique concepts. Can't wait until the tourney.

Thank you zig for eye candy list <3<3 <3
+ Show Spoiler +
there are 20+ missing / should finish it! joke

Thank you mapmakers for posting your overviews/maps so we can

The map name should be featured on screen all through the game on bttv tournament, i mean that is basically the best mapmakers can hope for:
to have the name of their map on stream with loads of people watching/commenting .. is this not heaven itself (remember there is 1 winner and all the rest "only" get that reward)
.. so please next time, dear bttv organizers, have the name of the map be ever present during the 1v1 s
(do get into 21st century ui design and reward hard working mapmakers in this fashion) glhf

So i wonder about some things now. How is the public voting is going to be fair, when some maps already get screened a lot in BTTV Tournament. Or are the maps that get streamed right now on BTTV the finalists already? Then i wonder, why didnt got anything announced and how the hell did the jury decide the finalists in ONE day !?

maybe a surprise to you, but voting in TLMC's was never fair towards the communities opinion.

Im glad everything got fixed up

The past couple comments got me thinking though, if the finalists are chosen already, (which is pretty insane lol) When might we be able to access or be shown a list of it?

Im at work, trying to watch as much as I can, but I gotta hit the truck soon.

it was an extremely rushed process, a lot of mapmakers have complaints about it.

someone in the mapmaking discord figured out the full list of finalists by taking the bnet url of the known finalists and incrementing/decrementing the number to find other maps uploaded around the same time. not sure if the judges want me sharing it ahead of time but i'll do it if it's ok with them

If it mattered, I would maybe complain too, but it's not our contest so we dont really have a say unfortunately, I'm glad to come back to a contest like this at all.

seeing how the maps are being streamed live atm I cant see why updating us would be bad, but better safe than sorry I s'pose.
