The PIMPING Mappers

deadline to enter maps: 2007, 12, 12 (Year, month, day)

I have decided to open this competition to a wider variety of influence. This is now a User Based Competition (UBC). I have no right to selfishly claim precedence over anyone else who feels they can properly pimp and revamp user maps. This is now officially open to the public. If you have above average decoration skills and/or are a skilled mapper with the initiative to pimp a map, by all means, go for it! If your pimping job proves satisfactory, I will post a comparison picture with a place of honor in the "Pimpers" list. I am way too lazy to take this upon myself, so you are all invited to take part as well.

Now... Even though I have invited all of you to take part in this glorious event (^^), that does not mean that any average mapper can say a map has been "pimped" and put it in here: No. I will hold these pimps to a high standard and if they do not meet that standard they will not be honored (although your effort is appreciated). What I am saying is that you need to do a good job. And you need to have some idea of what good decoration/balance/everything is already... So without further adue, hop to it!

*I will be adding previously pimped specialties*

In order to work this competition efficiently, there will have to be a few conditions set:

-Maps will be selected based on "Pimp-ability", if the map is inherently flawed beyond all comprehension, it will not be Pimped. Potential is what we are looking for.

-At the start of this competition, only two Pimped maps per user will be allowed, and not consecutively. - This is subject to change in the future - with notice ;).

-Begging will not be tolerated. Do not run around the site begging people for a pimp. It may or may not happen to your map.

-The original intention was to submit these Pimped versions over top of the originals. In other words, whatever version is already in the database will be replaced with the new one. If you wish to keep your original copy of the map uploaded, contact the "pimper" and you can discuss it.

-Do not submit maps that are "pretty good" or "needs a tiny bit of work". We are looking for maps that lack a great deal of flow and decoration, but still maintain a decent amount of balance and concept [/Inept].

-Map Crediting: It would be nice if someone could find time to produce an emblem to place in the Jpeg. We will put "Pimped by [insert pimper name]" somewhere in the map description. Other than that, it is your map, and will remain that way.

-We reserve the right to delete your map from this competition at any time based on:
a) Belligerence by the original mapmaker
b) Wrongly submitted map (previous MOTW / Good quality map)
c) My personal opinion
d) Map Crowding (necessary clean-up)

-If there are any questions/comments I am pretty active on here, so you are likely to find me on the "online" list, just PM me. Or leave a comment in here.

We look forward to aiding those with unsatisfactory decoration skills in order to promote concepts that have been overlooked.

[[Note: The listed names of these maps are the names of the final and pimped versions. The original names will be lost in translation.]]
