Wait.. You don't have to review every map.. By 'every' i meant that you can review any map, no matter the mod or vault..

ive posted a few revies, dial up is kinda prohibiting me from doing them en masse.

are you going to be weighting the people who have dial up due to their handicap? as to give them a better chance?

Meh, don't worry, I think you or elon will win anyway..

I reviewed some maps with a simple "Very fun" in the past etc..

I might aswell get a detailed review on those maps aswell..

(I reviewed symantry's maps and crystalmans, daubster hint hint)

I don?t think i?ll win, i don?t have enough time so im just gonna review 5 or 6 maps i think... But atleast i can?t lose anything :)

what a bummer if you got suspended for like a week if you lose a competition

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooes!

Damn it, I was writing a big-ass review on elon yariv's map that actually took me a while because it was so long and I finally post it and I get 'Whoopseh!' and I need to re-login!

Now I need to write it al over again..

EDIT : Rewrited, but it's shorter now, it's still pretty long.
Posted 18 years ago2005-12-22 15:05:18 UTC Post #153973
You should copy your post before you try to post it if you have taken a little while.

I always do, incase of that.

Yea..
I do the same, when writing reviews.. :)

hint hint Ansith, maybe you should write some more detailed reviews then just pro's and cons? hint hint :glad:

Meh, I hope I win, reviewed a bunch of maps lately, boringness eh'..
Posted 18 years ago2005-12-24 22:20:09 UTC Post #154387
Im pretty sure im not going to win this... Think i?ve reviewed 3 or 4 maps... And im not sure if they are any good... But atleast i don?t think im about to win and then get disapointed... :glad:
Posted 18 years ago2005-12-25 06:11:59 UTC Post #154394
Well the compo is over.
I'll check the MV one more time, when I'll get home, calculate the scores and post em'..
Thanks for participating, everyone! :)

- The results -

1st place - Rowleybob (average of 4.1 and a total of 4.9)

2nd place - Elon Yariv (average of 4.6 and a total of 4.7)

And 3rd place - Tosse (average of 4.1 and a total of 4.6)

Congratulations, Rowleybob - the winner of the Map vault review-a-thon.

For those, who want to see the whole scores - here is the excel document with all of the ratings, map names, etc.

Now as you have noticed, the final score isn't only the average of all the ratings. The final score was the the average of the sum of all the ratings plus the number of reviews. E.g if a member made 3 reviews that were evaluated in 5*,4*,5* - the final score would be calculated like that:

(5 + 4 + 5 + 3) / 4

I would also like to thank the other competitors:

FresheD, The Hunter, M_Gargantua, Ansith, Spooky, SpaG and Shadowhunter

Thanks for participating. It was really nice to see the MV active again.. :)

Too bad i didn't have time to participate :(. Though i wanted to. Oh well :)

Oh and congratulations Rowley! :)

Elon had a total of 4.8 and Tosse had a total of 4.7
Does it really matter? :lol:

Am I going to get a reward too?
[usless whine]To bad I don't have CS... there are more CS maps in the vault lately, and I couldn't comment on them. Almost commented on every Hl1 map though. I'll stop whining now! [/usless whine]

Congratulations rowleybob anyway! :)
Posted 18 years ago2005-12-25 16:33:52 UTC Post #154478
@ FresheD: If you want a Map Vault award, get mapping! Sounds pretty easy to me. :)

Congrats to Rowley. :)

Though all of you made good efforts, I can't hand them out to everyone, or there'd be no incentive to remain involved. We will have similar things again, don't worry. Keep reviewing and you could just win one silently: the only reason this was necessary is because few people were. Use your initiative (like Dauby :)) and you could end up with one soon too.

rowleybob, the clear winner, and FresheD, who participated massively, excusing his slightly poorer average (so much more work: well done, mate; personal commendation from Daubster) will be given their awards tommorow.

Don't despair if you didn't get anything this time 'round, folks. Keep being helpful and you'll get your silverware.

Thank you! What a beautiful christmas present this is! :glad:

Kudos to Elon Yariv--was right on my tail, it appears--, Tosse, and to everyone else who made this a worthwhile contest! :D

Congratulations to rowleybob aswell and a big thanks @ daubster.

[reply to Elon's useless whine] You can easily run CS maps on HL and comment on everything except the gameplay :P[/reply to Elon's useless whine]

[reply to FresheD's useless whine]That review sucked... And did I miss that one? Sorry.. :confused:[/reply to FresheD's useless whine]

@Tosse: Your reviews were really constructive and.. Well really great.. Although you needed more to win.. :
