The Community Mapping Contest Results!
Firstly, thank you to all that entered, the competition was designed to encourage new mappers to open up hammer and have a go at making a map which is by no
means an easy task. The judges and the development team were pleasantly surprised at how many of you did just that. The maps were of varying quality, though in
general everyone just about nailed the basic criteria for what is needed to make a map for Blade Symphony and for that we commend you all. We are a small
community and I think everyone in the community appreciates your hard work. Hopefully you will feel inspired to enter more competitions and continue to hone
your mapping skills in the future and even continue to improve your existing submissions.
