Now I only have to kill two people
Well, any contest is subjective. I can assure you that it was not easy to rate, I played each map at least four times and I tried my best to give a fair rating. My congratulations to all contestants, the maps were truly great and the quality differences minor. Perhaps it helps the designer to know how I rated the small differences, my critiques below. Still, this is just one third of it and my co-judges might see it different.
Jerkmania, Jekers Widow
buildings 10/10, elevations 9/10, terrain 9/10, beauty 10/10, 38/40
This is great, some minor terrain issues, the town not really swampy and sparse elevations.
Tlizopec, Cknchaos
buildings 9/10, elevations 10/10, terrain 9/10, beauty 9/10, 37/40
Some clustered buildings, town not swampy, influenced also the beauty.
Swamp Entry, by Liqi
buildings 9/10, elevations 8/10, terrain 9/10, beauty 9/10, 35/40
Main problem were the unrealistic water elevations.
Ep PTC entry, by Era Production
buildings 6/10, elevations 9/10, terrain 8/10, beauty 8/10, 31/40
Buildings, all the wonders do not fit into a swamp.
Cowichan, by Intrepid
buildings 8/10, elevations 6/10 terrain 8/10 beauty 8/10 30/40
Not enough buildings, elevations not existent and not much terrain mix.
Tne, by Tonto_Dave
buildings 7/10, elevations 9/10 terrain 6/10 beauty 8/10 30/40
Terrain, terrain that was a spoiler, an accessible large, flat grass 1 area and the water in the east lifeless of one depth only.
Murazawa, by Talon Karde
buildings 8/10, elevations 6/10 terrain 7/10 beauty 7/10 28/40
It is too repetitive and sparse in elevations.
Dr Lorenzo 2004, by Dr Lorenzo
buildings 7/10, elevations 6/10 terrain 7/10 beauty 7/10 27/40
Good map, but missed the swamp theme.
Disqualifications
A wanderer's dream, by Darck_Redd
buildings 7/10, elevations 8/10 terrain 8/10 beauty 8/10 31/40
Disqualified because of a double entry, as a person and with Era productions.
Atlantis, by Raptor the Good
buildings 7/10, elevations 8/10 terrain 8/10 beauty 8/10 31/40
Disqualified, the multiple crashes at the games start would be reason enough to remove it from the blacksmith.
Louisiana Bog Entry, by Hero Patrick
buildings 6/10, elevations 6/10 terrain 7/10 beauty 7/10 26/40
Disqualified, the file crashes at the creepy forest, because of too many layers of dirt path and at the end scene arriving with the transport.
Riddagen, by theory
buildings 0/10, elevations 0/10 terrain 0/10 beauty 0/10
Disqualified, unfortunately, the scenario is unplayable; it crashes as a scenario as well as from the editor.
