This post announces the winners of the contest.
Originally I planned to make a large write up and explain my choices but i'm busy, and to let people get their grubby hands on the maps I decided to shortlist the winners and put them here.

I've posted my top 5, of which the top 3 won avatars, and the recipient of the Winner of Hearts, I kept the others out of placements in order to not crush anyone's hopes too bad, but if you would like to hear my reasoning on either A: why you were placed where you were, as well as B: where you were placed if you were not in the Top 5, ask here. By doing so however you open yourself up to having the full weight of my criticisms brought upon you. You have been warned.

Without further ado:

Number 1

Spoiler: show

Number 2

Spoiler: show

Number 3

Spoiler: show

Number 4

Spoiler: show

Number 5

Spoiler: show

Winner of Hearts (Most original)

Spoiler: show

If you won a spot, I didn't place your other submissions. I kept the highest achieving of course.
You ask a mod to give you the avatar if you won, give them this post as proof.

I now open the thread up to both discussions on maps posted here (if you have anything to give to these authors) and your thoughts on the next tourney. I'm asking what size, a longer deadline? etc.

Thank you very much once again for submitting, i didn't expect such a turnout. If you won, congrats! if not? better luck next time.

Sure, but at the time of posting it was the latest post in both this thread and in the entire tournament subforum.
While I have employed and can possibly employ a countdown timer in the future, your inability to check the thread for a tournament you're participating in - even for posts made by the director himself - is not my problem.

The deadline is not the rules or the prizes, the rules are in the spoiler tag titled restrictions; wherein the deadline is not mentioned.

just that it is before the end of June which would be midnight in a logical man's mind

A logical man will check the thread.

My stance on this will not change. It's expected of contestant/contestant aspirants to monitor the tournament thread for updates leading up to the date, and the same applies here. there is nothing more I can tell you.

Well this submission deadline is nicely hidden in page 6, even though on page one it is mentioned that he updated the OP to include stuff...
Why would it not be included in the OP which says 30 days and doesnt mention any time, just that it is before the end of June which would be midnight in a logical man's mind

4pm on the 28th right now, and the submissions will be closed in 48 hours

A countdown sounds like a pretty universal timer that does not factor in timezones.

You were shown a deadline more then two days ago, where you had been given a pretty accurate timeframe to complete maps. Not only that: but i was 4 hours late to post the close. Because of that, i'm not accepting the submission. Maybe next time.

Name: Virginfell
Winner of Hearts ava pls ty

The map has one neat thingy I discovered (you will see what I mean when you launch it) but I only started the map 2 days before the deadline so only used it on a small gimmick, but could probably base an entire map off of it with enough time at hand.
