Thanks reef I was at work so if my map didn't go through and you tried to let me know I wouldnt have been around to do anything about it. Is anyone else going to post their maps? Ill probably after there judged. Also I am going to add a few new paths and ways to get around the map that I couldn't in the comp. I still need to check out yours worldcrafter. I checked out yours tetsuo. It was pretty cool but I just didn't see how it was the same floorplan. We can play our deathmatch maps once we the server is running.

that's the green hallway to the south jeff.. the building is a hexagon. Only one hallway on the bottom floor is accessible, and 4 rooms on the top floor... I'm gonna update the drawing. you'll see what i mean in a few.
edit
take another look at the picture - the bottom left one.

Nade the rocks blocking the cave. There's 3 possible openings in the rock. Remember the quote from armageddon: Hold a match in your hand it burns. Hold a match in your fist it burns EVERYTHING. One of the drawback to not having anoter 4 hours was once i got everything working i had to submit, there was no time to add hints and other minor details and recompile and submit... and i'm still confused about that wad issue.
Later on today (in like 12 hours or so) i'm re-submitting the map in the vault (not for the compo, that one's done) so its the way i want it. A friend of mine played it yesterday, he said it was amazing but very hard and confusing.
From his confusion and difficulties, i re-worked a bunch of scripts and he played it again. Even tho he just played it earlier he said everything was much clearer, and it's easier to follow.
So now all i have to do is fix the wad issue and add some more bells and whistles. And maybe an actual ending. =p
And i still cant get rid of those nasty un-seen face glitches. They really kill the atmosphere.

Ok now I see the floorplan lol just on different floor levels.. Yea it was a little confusing when I got to that part and had to turn off the generator. I threw a nade at the rocks at first and it didn't blow up even though it looked so much like a bombable zelda wall. Than I finally tried again and it went in the crack and blew it up. Maybe you could have had a wire running from the electric fence through the rubble to the generator as a clue. Also the keycard on the ground just looked like trash at first and I missed it. Maybe some color or light emitting texture on it would help.
Edit- Any idea as to how long judgement might take?

Thats usually the order they'd come in. Its been so long I don't even think about the compo. anymore. Well I got a really good idea for the next one so hopefully i'll win.

Im not the only one waiting. My dad keeps asking me about it along with the rest of my family and ex girlfriend. Prolly because every time they'd ask what I was doing I'd say I couldn't do anything because I was working on my entry...

We've already got some ideas of how we can avoid these large delays in the future. We won't be doing anything for this compo, though, so you'll just have to wait it out.

Yall won't be doing anything for these? Wow thanks for telling us, I check the sight every day to see if the results are in. Seriously we all have lives. I know it takes longer for someone to make one entry than it does to judge nine and write reviews on them. I have college and work and a girlfriend and a very busy life yet I managed to get a huge map together on the deadline. Not only did I but eight other people, well seven and one late. All im saying is that nine people with busy lives of there own put aside things here and there to get there entry done yet two people that started it can't judge them in three times the ammount of time. Iv'e personally written reviews and judged every map thats hit the vault my self and feel that I know the order of best to worst. Its great that yall put these things together and I give yall that respect but this was a major let down.
