Testing options:

• A specific time slot: Available time & your time zone.
__Only use if you aren't available for the whole testing period and wish to attend your map.

• First come first serve, until the 2 hour period is filled.
• Maps will get 30 minutes playtime, KotH/CTF/SD gets 20, Arena and orphaned stages get 15.
• Last map can exceed the limit so long as the testing starts within the 2 hour period
• You can keep the same TF2Maps.net file number by clicking edit on your file's page and then simply putting a new file in the upload box. This makes it easier for you (don't have to update all your links), easier for me, and less clutter on the site. (picture)
• Any maps that have been tested in the previous Gamedays that week (regardless of version/changes) will be given lower priority over other maps submitted to said test

Putting this up quickly, stuff is outdated but it's just so people can post maps.

I thought it could be funny to try participating in the coming ETF2L 6v6 league. Just need some more interested people.

I set up a team called "Cartographers" on ETF2L.org. If you're interested, go look it up and write below which classes you have the greatest interest in.

I was thinking of making it a casual division 6 team, as i am quite busy at the moment, and have a feeling that i'm not the only one.

As far as i can see, a team is allowed to have quite a lot of substitues, so i'm thinking that we should just get a good amount of people on the team. Then it should be a pretty stress-free experience for less Committed players.


Note that this is a 6s league.

Submissions!
For the first time, I will be accepting submissions. The following criteria must be met in order for maps to be tested (generally following the Gameday rules):
  • Maps must be working. A broken map just wastes everyone's time.
  • Maps must have a version suffix, as otherwise we won't know what version of the map is the current one. In addition, make sure the map name is all lowercase.
  • Maps must be made for standard play. This means no mods, medieval, arena, and such. Alternate game modes (such as push 3CP) are accepted.
  • 5CP, A/D, and KotH maps will be given the highest priority. CTF will be given priority over Payload, TC, and SD (aside for variations of these).
  • Maps do not have to be in development. However, more feedback will likely be given to maps in development.
  • No point_servercommands.
  • You must have a map download in your submission, if you do not, then your submission will be ignored. In addition, posting a thread would be helpful in getting feedback to you.
  • If any of these rules are not followed, then your submission will be ignored.


To submit, please put your map name and version, download, and thread in your post.

BZ2 compression is recommended.

Testing Options
  • Specific timeslot.

The standard unofficial ESEA configs will be used.

STV demo and team communications/map feedback can be requested any time, depending on if I remember to record.

If you would like to watch/participate, you will need Mumble. Here is a guide on setting it up: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...d=118564493#-1

If this is too much like the gamedays let me know
