Uhm, "free labor"? Don't think so. Winners get paid for their work.

Does all that money come straight out of Epic's pockets? It's got Intel's name all over it. If Epic doesn't have to pay for it, it is to them, "free labor" ("running on the ps3 is a big plus" indeed).

Really amazing work across the board! Once folks are back from AGDC our intention is to start paying out the prizes immediately!

Totally... I mean, they host this contest where people can win money and get their foot into the gaming industry. Those greedy bastards!

EDIT: Awesome work (mostly :p) and congratulations to the winners!

I didn't put that tag there, guys.

Gratz to all the winners and especially to "The Ball" team (seriuosly, mod needs a better name :) ), can't wait for Oztoc :tup:

Well "Ballz" was already taken and "The ROund THing that looks realy really Cool" missed by one vote I heard...

Congrats to all the modders for all their hard work n love of the game.

I think you've nailed the visuals. Safeguard is a great map, to be sure. I'm pretty sure the layouts just edged you out. React is a bit bigger and has a pretty interesting flow. Touch is a really large map, which is rare in CTF, and there's really just more of it. More is better. :)

It also may have something to do with the fact that React and Touch are both brand new layouts. I'm sure someone from Epic could give you some feedback on that.

yeh from what iv been told.. seems to be because mine was not a new layout, its not looking good for dreary3 then.. guess ill make something "new" for phase 3. I hope I can get the time... to do something new with dreary level of detail
Im hoping to do well in the best graphics catagorys

As usual, hal is right on the money (although size doesn't really matter as long as the layout supports it adequately).

So was I mistaken in thinking all creators would recieve feedback on their entries? I still have very little idea what the judges were looking for in the categories I entered so constructive criticism is worth more to me than any prize listed.
