About the Categories and the ContestAwardsFinal Considerations
Hello, fellow mice!
Because 2020 was not a great year, the MapCrew team decided to bring you another Map Making Contest. The last Map Making Contest we did was revolved around easy categories, so we wanted to mix it up a bit. For this month's Map Making Contest we chose some fun categories that will allow you to show off your skills! In this thread, you will get an explanation on how to submit your maps, information regarding the rewards and etc.
Let's get moving, Happy New Year and good luck!
﹣﹣ Categories ﹣﹣
1. Survivor (P10)
2. Miscellaneous (P9)
3. No Shaman (P7)
Regarding the last Map Making Contest, these categories will let your imagination run wild. On top of some requirements for them, there are also some factors that shouldn't be included.
We can't wait to see the amazing techniques you come up with for each of these categories.
﹣﹣ Submitting ﹣﹣
Submitting your entries consists of sending the map code below, specifying the category it is for.
Example: Survivor - @111111
You may only submit one map for each category.
The submitting session will last from today until the 27th of January, only in this thread.
If you submit your maps in other ways or places, you will be disqualified from the contest.
You don't have to submit your maps all at once, but you need to state the category they are for.
After the 27th of January, when the submitting closes, your maps will be put up for voting. Results will come in on the 31st of January.
﹣﹣ Rules ﹣﹣
Failing to respect the rules stated below and the information stated above will result in disqualification.
- Send your map in code format, we do not accept XMLs.
- Editing your map after the submitting ends is not allowed, however, you can do it while the submitting is open.
- Not good enough maps for the rotation will not be permed, only as P1 if the MapCrew team considers it.
- Do not copy any maps from others or other tfmps.
- Don't use any tags while sending your entry (including tags as quotes, color, spoilers, etc.)
- If you posted a map for the rotation, you are not allowed to submit it as your entry.

﹣﹣ Extra Tips ﹣﹣
Survivor - P10
- You must not add holes to your map.
- You can add cheese, but avoid spamming them around.
- The shaman must have enough space to move around and to kill the mice.
- Mice must have enough space to flee as fast as possible.
Miscellaneous - P9
- Soulmate/Collision maps can go here
- Maps which do not fit under exactly one category.
- Special maps with a different glow, such as mechanisms that aren't that complex or a racing map that doesn't fit the racing rooms.
No Shaman - P7
- The map should be generally completable by mice of various skill but reward better-skilled mice.
- Wall jumping should be kept to a minimum.
- Can include mechanisms, decorations, etc.
Good luck with your entries and we wish you once again, Happy New Year!Credits:
