Speed Mapping

I've put up a new site on MPQ. Its for Quake Speed Mapping. Basically you have an hour to make a map in. No prizes or anything, just the enjoyment and panic you get from doing it. There are two map packs up so far and its fairly impressive to see just what can be created in an hour.
As for reviews, I shall have some up this weekend. Apologies to Rotpig etc.. for the wait.

Umm... not that I wish to cheat, or even make a map in an hour but how would you control how much time ppl spend on a map?

We hang out on irc.gamesnet.net in #speedq1 and map all at the same time. Then afterwards, we play the maps on a server.

If people want to cheat then its up to them. Its not like theres anything at stake here :). Its done purely for the enjoyment factor and the sheer panic it induces when time is running out.

true, it`s all up to mappers. I dont think anyone woud cheat. It`s just no fun if you do that map before and claim it to be 1hr-made.

It`s cool to try to make map in 1hr, I even try that on my own without competiton.

BTW, there is a frikbot waypoint pack for sm1 ! So now you can play speedmaps with smart bot play ! Wooohoo . I bet bots would have problems navigating scamp`s sm1 without waypoint file. It all @ http://forums.inside3d.com
