Man, i really hate to be one of those guys that just complains but this really sucks;
I Think the pmc contest was a GREAT idea, me and a friend of mine where thinking of making a survival games map anyway when we read about the competition, and we decided to enter. So, we drew up this massive plan and spent a Very long time making the map (i didn't keep track but its probably around 40-50+ hours, maybe twice as much).
Now, i'm not about to suggest that our map is the best there by any means, however, i am about to rant about the voting system; I have seen quite a few maps with way more diamonds than ours, simply because of insane shaders and texture packs. i will not name any because i'm not mean, but there is literally one map which is a biome with a few buildings, which has Loads of diamonds, merely because there is a frigging lens flare on every one of the screenshots.
Me and my friend decided to stay away from extreme shaders and tp's because the people playing wont be using them, as was suggested on the pmc page for the competition. The way the judges will judge the maps in the finals is awesome, and i truly believe that if our map got there , that it would do really well. But we're never going to get there merely because we don't spam lens flares and huge contrast on our screenshots and trailer.
Once again, i hate to be one of those whiners, and i think its a great competition other than the above, here's a link to our map to show i'm not talking out of my ass: http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/stranded-mcsg-arena/
Thanks if you've read this far
