Ok guys I'm making this one official. I will be giving away up to 6 of these bad boys in exchange for a good map and description of the new arena. I will only pick the best so do your best. Limit 1 person though many entries will be accepted.

Things I would like to see include:
•Variety of different landscapes
•Traps and pitfall with good description and stats (dont overpower the traps either, they have to work well with both high and low levels)
•Very detailed description of everything
•a decent size but not to big detailed Map
•and as equally beneficial to all classes and races as possible (try not to make it one sided for one class or race)

Alright now how this will work is You post your map with all of its description here, keep it to 1 post. I will pick the best maps (up to 6 [may change over the course of the contest depending on how my entries are submitted and how good they are]) and The entire guild will vote on the best one (just to see who's the best). The best maps will be the official maps of the arena for the player to choose from.

Submissions Ends February 1st 2008 (should be plenty of time for non-active users to see this and participate, and for good stuff to be made.)(may be subject to change depending on the amount of submissions)

Any trap is fine as long as it wont like instantly kill anyone. as for players on each side, i would think it would normally be one on one but build it so more can use it.

heh, heh, heh *maniacal laughter* I shall design a map for you to use. Actually, I know where I can get some descent maps online that use the open gaming license. Would you mind I simply took one of those and then added some features, like traps, to them for use in the arena?

I dont care about the process only the product. so long as its not violating any copyrights and whatnots.

so I'm guessing your looking more for an open area arena instead of a Colosseum arena type of situation if you want different types of lands and traps and such?

fire wow

Something like that yes. An area of PvP combat. It doesn't necessarily need to be a open area, It could be a multi room dungeon/cave or mountainous terrain or a town setting or even a standard Colosseum with various obstacles. I just mainly want some settings for 2 or more players to have some fun PvP combat. It doesnt really matter where or what so long as it is good and creative.

With only a couple days left It would seem that nobody is interested. Or just forgot.... I was hoping this would take off... I guess the new deadline is March 1st 2008.

Notes on Map
-The map extends 60' above and 60' below the starting level of play.
-Creatures lose all their natural forms of movement, instead gaining a fly speed (perfect) of 10'x their intelligence. Creatures with no intelligence cannot move.
-Illumination is equal to that of a bright sunny day at around noontime.

You really shouldn't wait till the end. It makes me think that nobody is going to participate.

Can we still submit one? I have a really good one that I like, but I don't know how to post it on here. Does anyone know how to make a code map like Anketh did?
