Hello everyone, I, as in me, is going to host the second ever public Monaco Contest!
This contest is not about your heisting skill, but about your creation skill.

I will be posting level themes, and respective rewards (Games! you all like games, dont you? Just because you already have a game doesnt mean you cant win it again, and give it to someone else!). There will be six themes with listed minimums, and as the list goes on, the rewards will grow bigger! It's your job to make a level with those minimums, and It's my (And the very lovely judge panel of the My Friends List Association [MFLA]'s) job to review them!

I'm making this contest in hopes of giving incentive to create, well, good levels!

Due to the perpetual problem of ♥♥♥♥ HAPPENING, I have finally been able to log on and edit this post. At andy's request (you cant argue with devs people) the contest judging will now take place week by week. Also the contest is postponed until the gentleman's cup starts, I think. I have no idea. Andy keeps doing ♥♥♥♥. Sorry for changing the rules so much. Believe me I feel ♥♥♥♥♥♥ about it. But in order to make this a better contest, I have to. Also, I will be giving a super secret grand prize to the person who accumulates the mos pionts across all o their levels. What is this grand prize? Even I dont know! Its 1:38 and im tired as hell!

Get to mapping! :diamond:

Interesting, I might as well give the Bank a go. Also, I do think 10th is just around the corner for this kind of map making

Just for clarification, is it ok if you test a map with friends as long as the veiw isn't public?

Who's the third judge, if I may ask?

Steam sucks and posted my comment early. What I meant to say was we dont have one, but there are a ton of people up for it. I myself am not judging, because I will be hosting the games if the judges choose to play multiplayer. That way nobody will know who made what level, and nobody can earn friend compensation points.

Ok, cool!

I'll throw prizes into this, shirts for the winners.

Can the coordinator of the event e-mail me at anguyen@pocketwatchgames.com and we can make sure things go according to plan.

I think the best thing to do is stagger the categories so that a winner is announced every week or something like that. That way, people can focus on a single category at a time and you may have more submissions per deadline. It'll also increase the length of this event.

Yes, that would be helpful. Do it in the order they are currently in. Do judging for each round and then at the end, whoever gets the most points overall can get a grand prize. That would give incentive to make all of the maps.

I feel like I may be a bit dense for not knowing this, but what exactly is the Mega Freeflow about? Is it just make a regular heist map with 6 floors?
