So would I be correct in thinking this is only the start of the judging now with this announcement of 10 finalists for 5 places in best DM map? I think this is going to take forever :(

Hi guys, I'm one of the folks helping run the contest over at Epic.

Just wanted to say *thanks so much* to Hal & BU for being so supportive, and thanks to all of you who have submitted mods so far.

Tomorrow we'll be sending word on the Best Warfare finalists.

Looks like I was on right about quite a few of the mappers making it into the finals. Congrats to all. You guys definitely deserve to be recognized for making such fine content for the community.

From here:

1 - CBP3-Salvation
2 - Shrine
3 - Waterfalls
4 - August
5 - Acquisition/Iron Maiden2 (too close to call)

So all the ones I called made it in and Iron Maiden2 was a runner up. Do I know my DM levels or what? ;) (Of course no one is going to give me credit or acknowledge my eye for talent but that's cool ... it's on record and man I feel great).

Also I have played all the maps on the list of winners and runner-ups except for Utopia ... so I have to check that one out now. What do other people think of the choices ... agree or disagree? I'm curious which ones some of you would have placed in the finals.

Man, what is up with this image viewer?

The ten shots from this news post should be easily scrolled through with the arrows, but this isn't the case for some reason. Instead, you get the one you click on and then a bunch of really old crap from some kind of UT3 preview. This makes you go back and forth ten times to view all ten shots.

Usability fail. :(

Good game to you guys and your maps.

Some memorable stuff in there but I particularly enjoyed Waterfalls... actually I enjoyed them all. There was other stuff entered that was garbage but quality has won out (as it should).

They're recycled from the MSUC Overview. I didn't upload them all over again.

Yeah DM was a competitive phase this time. Got honorable mention, makes me happy. :)

Good luck to the finalists, be no surprise if August takes 1st place once again... ;) just kidding.

Look forward to the WAR finalists soon! Hopefully Airlock is in the top...

And yeah props to Sklare two maps as finalists not bad.
