Map Awards 2011

Post by koontz1973 »

In the last issue of the foundry, I posted the map awards for 2011. A lot of votes are coming in but not everyone reads the new letter and those that do sometimes skip the foundry section. So I thought I would post it here as well to see if we can get a few more votes in before the next deadline. Even though no medal or award will be given for the winners, it would be nice to grab bragging rights for the next year. If any of you come up with a new category for next year, let me know.

Map Awards 2011 (Voting)
We are nearing the end of a very industrious year at the foundry. In 2011 we have gotten to play on 26 new maps, including 3 new limited edition maps (not included in voting). 2012 looks like it may produce even more maps for us, so I thought it would be time to introduce the map making awards to you all. We will keep it simple and small for the first year so only a few categories.
Which are...
  • Best map for 1v1
    Best large game map
    Graphics
    Overall theme
    Ease of use (not overly complicated)
    Best new mapmaker

If a map joins Beta before the end of the year and is not on this list, it will be included into next years votes.

Happy gaming everyone, whatever map takes your fancy. Image
