Friends, hello everyone! On the
Mr.BoS channel and on the STMods.ru website, as well as with the participation of everyone who cares about this game, a joint contest for the BEST MAP of 2018 is being held! Any map maker can participate in the contest. The main condition is that the map must be at least 32x32 in size and must be new (not a conversion from an old version of the game) and not publicly available. It is welcomed if you specify which mods are recommended for playing the map. Everything else is up to the discretion and imagination of the map makers.
The prize fund is 7000 rubles. Participation in the contest is free. You must submit an application to participate on the STMods.ru website by leaving a comment under this post. The last day to submit a map for the contest is May 3, 2018. Send the map for review and the contest via private message on VK or Discord or any other convenient way either to Mr.BoS (
Alexander Zadorin on VK) or
Alexey Sinev.
All maps that enter the contest will be tested and played through on the
Mr.BoS channel. After playing them, voting will be held on the STMods.ru website and
in the Mr.BoS VK group. All votes will be counted and taken into account.
After the voting, all maps will be made publicly available and uploaded by the map authors to the STMods.ru website. The maps will be played under code names (for example 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.). The map authors will also be revealed only after the voting to minimize biased voting. We do this to make the voting as objective and fair as possible. Authors who try to campaign during the voting will be disqualified.
The voting period is 1 week after all maps have been played through!
Total prize fund 7000 rubles
1st place - 4000
2nd place - 2000
3rd place - 1000
Additional prize from Mr.BoS - the game ETS2 as a gift at his discretion.
Update 02.04.18:
Voting procedure: depending on the number of participants, we randomly divide them into groups of 4-5 maps. Within a week, we play through (or simply review) all the maps in the group. At the beginning of the next week after reviewing all the maps in the group, a (one-week) vote starts to choose the best map from that group. At the same time, maps from the next group are shown, with voting for them starting at the beginning of the following week, and so on until all maps have been reviewed.
After all maps have been reviewed and group votes held, a final vote is created, with participants being the maps that won their weekly votes. The results of this vote will determine the best map!
We remind you that during the stream of a contest map, no viewer (not even the author) is allowed to reveal either the name or, especially, the author of the map. Otherwise, the map will be excluded from the contest.
Good luck!
Update 03.05.18: submission of works is closed. The first weekly vote starts on Monday.
Update 12.05.18: at the request of voters - maps that made it to the final vote will be made publicly available during the voting period without author attribution, so voters can try out each map before voting.
