Have fun everyone - and don't forget to post your overview, and upload to either EU or NA, within the next 24 hours!


Process
Two topics are randomly selected using randomizer.org at the start of the event, and then immediately made official. This way, no "cheating" can occur, and the administrator can technically participate as well.



What is the Map Jam & Challenge?
The Map Jam & Challenge is a format by and for the community.
The Map Jam & Challenge is a regular map making competition.
The Map Jam & Challenge wants you to be creative and quick.
The Map Jam & Challenge provokes thinking outside the box.

This is a format developed collaboratively by Samro and Scorp, and was motivated by MotM, CSL Map Jam and the Map Making Challenge.

Why do this?
It is all about challenging your fellow map makers with some strange idea and together to a 24h map making jam that will produce innovative, funny and crazy maps. From this format ideas may emerge that can be implemented to competitive maps - or maybe not. There is nothing to win like beta keys, sorry for that. I have no give aways, no tshirts. Also I do not own this format. This is an idea that i hope can be run by the community itself, without judges, organization, etc.

I know many will appreciate this. Here it is all about making maps. These may or may not be played. This is not the biggest point. We are looking for new ideas in maps and for new ways to make maps.

How does it work?
  • Runs monthly or sub-monthly.
  • 24 hours to allow all timezones a few hours. Is held in the weekend to allow the most people to participate.
  • All participants send one topic to the admin via PM, e.g. 'rocks' and 'low main'.
  • By a randomized process two topics are selected among all entries and made public to start the Map Jam & Challenge. This aspects helps to have no 'cheating' like preparing a map to give yourself more time.
  • Within the 24 hours participants post the overview in this thread and upload their map to EU/NA (ask your fellow map makers at EU/NA)
  • Public Vote decides on the winning map. Map makers who think they have the edge in evaluating how good a map is, can post their choice in the thread to have a double-vote.
  • Win = Fun & Fame


Map Jam & Challenge #2
The Map Jam & Challenge start Saturday, December 8th, 10:00EDT 15:00EST and runs 24 hours. Topics need to be send to ScorpSCII via PM until one hour before the challenge starts. This gives the admin one hour to randomly select the double-topic. Via PM we will keep all ideas secret and fresh for the next round maybe and the double-topic is quite a surprise for everyone.

Topics will be announced in this thread.

The previous event was administrated by Samro, and this event by Scorp. In future events, other community members may administrate as well.

it actually was quite a challenge! go here to see how it went

yet it was a lot of fun and i was surprised about the good quality overall considering the conditions (24h and a difficult set of parameters). If we get a simpler task this time, the maps might be even better. still the map making experience in The Map Jam & Challenge #1 was great, not despite, but because of the challenging topic in my opinion.

Yeah for sure, that seems like quite a difficult task to make a map you'd actually want to play given those constraints. The thread looks pretty good!

This is going to be awesome, there should be a tournament held with the best maps from the Map Jam, I can organize and cast it as well, unless anyone else wants (I have never casted in English before but I have casted a weekly cup in my native language for over half a year now, so it can't be too hard )
