3: Judges.

4: Why not?

1- Would you mind paying a registration fee to help get better prizes? If so what's the maximum amount you would pay?

10 bucks CDN, 20 bucks max, only over paypal. I don't have a credit card and I just don't have a lot of money, people are poor

2- What kind of prizes would you want to get?

Satisfaction of winning a recognized tourniment, maybe a cheap (Or when december comes round, EP2) steam game. It seems worth it but I think the winner would have to let a trusted loper, probably a judge who holds the money and activates it over steam.

3- Should the winner be decided by a selected judge, or be voted by the community?

A board of selected lopers staff I think would be better because a majority of lopers could see the map in a different light then as it was intended, though the community could as a whole identify who is nominated to be on the board, maybe a few well recognized members or perhaps a few members of other connected communities, somewhat recognized and people know what to look for in a map.

4- Should the regular map battles keep going at the same time as the tournment?

Sure, more opertunities for optional community events the better right?

5- How much time should be given for each match?

Month, or if its a small group then they can decide for themselves and agree apon it.

6- What kind of challenges/themes you think are better for the matches?

Innovative gameplay, pre selected theme (industrial, office/workplace, abandoned, etc.), odd unthought of scenarios or themes such as places you just dont really experiance in a game, My final desig project was to make a pinball machine where the player was basically the pinball. Be creative with a few and don't lead the mappers down the same old road all the time.

I hope this gets underway

Another question though; could the tourniments go into a second final round where two maps have been judged as too equil and the mappers then have a short extension to fix it up any way they want?

I think it would be neat and you'd only be improving on the final quality or learning a big lesson.

I'm really looking foreward to this.
If you need any help with the site, just ask - I know html, css, and php.
