Maybe different people have different excuses for why they haven't made an entry.

Mine is that I use hammer only when I can't make something I want to in the puzzlemaker, or when I want to make the map look different (put some signs, make custom stairs, make an escape hatch for when the player gets stuck etc.). I don't open up hammer with the thought of making a bts/different style from clean area. I would participate if the challenge included something custom though.

Is this competition getting any entries?

Oh, good thing I came to this discussion. I'm back in the competition then.

My turn to vote! I won't give reasons why I vote for the maps I do vote for or how good/bad they are, since I already commented on all of them.

1. To Do List :
2. Walking in the light...
3. 0.25

oh well, I'm the new guy around, I didn't know. Thanks clearing it up for me.

nice task, nintendo.erk. :)
But wait a minute, DeathWish808 also has 8 points and also deserves the silver medal, not only josepezdj and LPChip. So everyone has 8 points except for nintendo.erk and Tailsac:

josepezdj - dRivE - 3+3+2 = 8 points

DeathWish808 - Around you go - 2+1+3+1+1 = 8 points

LPChip - Unstable portals - 1+1+3+3 = 8 points

nintendo.erk - stuck in limbo - 2+3+2+2+2 = 11 points

Tailsac - Cycle 3 - 1 points

1. Nintendo.erk - basic portal tricks used in a cool way to make a difficult test and an "aha!"-moment. So awesome!
2. Josepezdj - cool new visuals, a smart idea and it wasn't as hard as his usual maps (which in this case is good :D)
3. DeathWish808 - one of the best timed puzzles ever. IDK why, because IMO it isn't a well thought out puzzle with a unique idea or anything, it just felt this way when I played it.

Hello, my name is Ivo - that's why my steam account is | \_/ () - and I come from Bulgaria. I'm 16 years old and study in the first german school of Sofia. I can speak English (obviously), Bulgarian and German.

I'm a huge Half-Life and Portal fan. I don't play many games, but I've played all of VALVe's and usually I play Portal 2 or other mods/maps connected to it. I started learning hammer a year ago and I made four Hammer-only maps since then.

I love solving puzzles. Not only portal puzzles, but also I play logic games on my phone like lasors, gears of time, 2048, unblock, tetris...; other puzzle games I've played and liked are The Bridge, QUBE, Tag The Power Of Paint, all kinds of portal mods (rexaura, blue portals, prelude, pro, Aperture tag, TWTM...)

What else...probably some thigs no one cares about - I can ski, I'm a good swimmer, I like going out with friends, my least favorite school subject is History I want to visit New York, I loved playing with LEGOs as a child (sometimes I still do, but don't tell anyone) aaand...that's all I guess.
