I know it takes time for the devs to upload the maps to the servers, but it's been almost a week since the winning maps were to be uploaded in one day! In the post, it was stated that the maps would be up in a day. Not angry or anything, just wondering what happened! :)

By the way, it's been at least 3 or 4 weeks since Snowkrill Island was scheduled to be uploaded. What happened?

Thanks! ;)

Well a number of things could have happened. The longest process is making sure everything is fair, such as the map maker not putting anything overpowered on the map. Then you need to check every chest and decide what tier it should be. Then have a run through of the map to make sure everything is good and nothing is broken. If something is wrong, you have to start over. Also, this needs to be done while the developers are working hard to make sure the servers are running as well as they can. There is always going to be things the developers need to do, so this will eventually happen when time is available.

For Snowkrill island, I think something happened with the creator of the map, and they were unable to add it to the servers. I'm not sure about the rest, although it's definitely possible they'll be released with MCSG's 1.6 update :)

I think the devs are working on it. They want to release all the maps at the same time. It is hard they have to tier all the chests and check for bugs.

The contest says that any maps entered is eligible for usage on the MCSG servers, meaning if you enter a map, MCSG can use it even if it didn't win. Unfortunately, this is also the same for the winning maps. Even if the maps won, it doesn't mean it has to be accepted.

From what I've seen the server already has a multitude of maps that aren't played very often. I'm assuming that they must be certain that the players will like the map and vote for it. They don't want another dead map.

It also specifically said that the winning maps will be uploaded to the servers. They promised that the maps would be accepted.
