I originally didn't want to create 3 threads every MotM, so I already announced the june competition with the may results thread. But it seems alot of people missed that. So yes, there is another MotM this month!
Feel free to post your submissions in this thread as well. Your thoughts about other maps won't go unread as well!
There is no need to send in map files. All you need to do is create a map thread (including a top down overview) following the forum guidelines and publish your map on battle.net for us to find! All map posted before the 25th will be considered by the judges. Maps posted after that date will be considered in the following month.
Also, submissions aren’t limited to just 1v1 maps. So show 2v2/3v3/4v4 some love, too!
Results will be made public around the end of the month.
Winners will be decided by public poll (with hidden results) once again.
This time maps for the poll will be picked by the map cave, a skype group of 50+ mapmakers. If anyone is feeling excluded and is willing to endure the spam, pm me. Depending on how well that goes, we might continue doing so in the future.
Since many have contacted me asking how they could contribute, I have decided to set up a paypal account people can donate to. So if you want to support MotM, send your donations via paypal towards:
sc2motm[at]gmail.com
Starting this month, 50% of the donations will be used for the competition prize pool. The other 50% will be saved up for upcoming MotM events (Tournaments or Showmatches, still TBD). No money will go into our own pockets!
__________________________________________
The prize pool this month is currently at 110$! __________________________________________
Prizes are purely donation based. This months contributors are: LoveTool: 40$ Igrok: 30$ eTcetRa: 20$ SidianTheBard: 15$ lefix: 5$ Plexa 20$ Iamcaustic 90$ (100 CAD)
Prize money will be paid out via Paypal.
Good Luck everyone!

Thanks I will try to submit as many maps as I promised last month.
|
I'm just gonna make random crap this month. Really don't have much time xD
|
Sorry if my question seems dumb, but when will we be able to vote, and where? I missed last month poll
|
There will be a new thread dedicated to voting around the end of the month, which will be up for several days (usually until I notice there aren't any more votes coming in).

On a side node, we have topped last months donation record! People have donated over 200$ this month.
|
I wish I had at least made a map. It's really cool that people donate money to make the contest more appealing.
|
The only downside to being Canadian is my money doesn't translate as well as USD. Excited to see what people end up submitting!

I'll submit these:
(2) Epimetheus - I've (shown earlier versions of) this map around before (as early as oct 2013) but only made a thread on May 31. Is that OK? (4) Disaster Area - might as well.
|
That's fine. One of the purposes of MotM is to get people to post their maps here, and not sit on a dozen unfinished projects
|
thank you Lefix
long live motm

We don't have yo write the entry here right?
|
You don't have to. But it's a good way to promote your map and bump this thread
|
Here is my only submission : ocularis terribus
I have an other map almost done but I wasn't able to finish it in time T_T. I'll submit it next time.
|
I actually worked on 2 maps at the same time, and wanted to submit them both, but ended up only having enough time and will to finish one. I doubt the second one will be finished for next month too, since my map making urge is pretty dry.
My submission for this month: Golan Heights.
|
My entry would be (2) Aeons' Citadel. This map was created and first published in April (the map thread itself is dated April as well), but it turned out to have major issues, and I only had time to redesign it about a week ago, so it was technically finished in June. I hope the map can still participate (and it's not too late already) .

Wow, the center looks like face and generally it looks like alien queen a bit.
|
I was thinking it looked like a badger, actually

Hmmm… looking at the submitted maps so far, I may actually have a chance :O

Alright, submissions are now closed. Map threads posted from now on are eligible for MotM July!
All donations from this point on will also go towards MotM July. For this month we got a record breaking 220$ in donations, resulting in a 110$ Prize pool, while the other 110$ will go into MotM savings for upcoming tournaments!
|
Good luck to those who have submitted.

And the fact that all the maps made for TLMC4 were automatically entered into the last MotM.

Except maps with less than 3 2 spawns, like the map that won it.
Sorry, I really wanted to.
|
We are using this thread for the month right?
If so Bump!
|
|
I won't be able to submit my map this month
|
|
Next thread should be tilted "MotM: July Results/August Submissions" to reduce confusion.
