Comon that is not a good solution, you should have said that before. Now people are finished with their maps, so I guess we should allow custom graphics too.
I know this does sound harsh, but in a competition you should be using your own work. If you submit someone else's graphics, then you will not be using your own work. This is why that rule was there. I posted these rules up before to make sure everything was fair, and went through a drawing process. There, everyone also seemed to agree. So I think I am not likely to get rid of this rule unless the other judges want to as well.
@Stephanator: Custom tiles are allowed, but you have to make them yourself.
EDIT: You may now use Spear Tiles and N-race.

That's hard stuff for a race map then. My spear tileset is kinda standard for them.
I would allow the contestants to use custom tilesets, but they have to be sure, that they look great. Otherwise it's a big fat minus, as I want a teeish map and not a crappy map.
Well, I think just making an exception for the spear graphics is good enough. The Nrace tileset is like creating your own tileset, anyone can make nrace from scratch in 10 minutes so hey, let's just pretend he made it himself, then race mappers have spear and nrace, and the ctf and dm mappers still have to actually work to get things pretty.
Okay, those will be the rules, then. These race maps will be excepted into the competition.
a suggestion for the next contest. Create two threads. One with the rules + contest-contributions and one for comments
I'm quessing the community award is gonna be quirky, since a map post which is on the last place on a page will get fewer views than others x)
Anyway, let's not whine too much (:

description: I used dm1 for example and looked especially on the movement on this map. I think the most
important point on a map is the gameplay - everybody should enjoy to play the map and even
pros should have fun on it!
dm_lazy is one of the first dm maps i made and i hope you see that it was connected with hard
work to built and to test it!

I'm doing something similar. I'm working on a website, which may be ready for next year's competition. Wordpress will be good, because it allows commenting, editing, and pictures. That we, each post could be a map, and its own thread. I don't know how the rating will go, though.

Its a map contest, not a graphics contest. Isn't it the gameplay of the map that matters? I can use all bones to make a great map from grass main. I agree with others to remove that rule...BTW the titel of this topic is MAP design competition.
1. I already made two exceptions to this rule.
2. The contest relies on three criteria: accessibility, playability, AND graphics. Though playability is most important, this contest should be about all three so that we can bring out the overall best mapper.
@The Messenger: please don't quote such long posts — it makes it hard to scroll for some users — but instead write @the user you're talking to.
Calling attention to everyone, if you want to ask a question, please read the other posts and the rules to make sure it's been answered.
@Jon, firstly, I think it's great that you're running this, I hope this competition is successful.
I see that you've had to answer a lot of questions regarding graphics - may I suggest that you in future list the EXACT PNG files that are allowed to be used in any/all layers. This way you can simply say: nope, not a correct PNG file, not a valid entry!
Also, May I make a suggestion for your next map competition (if you have one), get one of the artists (there are many in the Graphics section) to create a new tile set and then ask all mappers to ONLY use that PNG file to create something beautiful and is also playable - that would be a good challenge for all the mappers. Just remember the custom PNG doesn't have to look "fantastic" the more ordinary looking the tiles are, the greater the challange is to create something beautiful from it!
@bobsmiley, dm finland looks sweet
First of all, you can make any png. The only tiles off limits are most of other people's tiles except for spikes and nrace.
As for the idea, good, but I think people should be allowed to make their own graphics. Maybe making a special tileset that people would have to use but also allowing them to incorporate other graphiccs would be a more fun.

People who made racemaps but took them down they had spikes or nrace: please put them up again. These tilesets are now allowed for the race category. Right now, there is one racemap submitted, meaning that one person will win first, second, and third place! 
less work for me... lol
pls if someone has a nice racemap... pls submit ^^
my servers need some new maps anyways... so it could be possible that i will host the 4th place too
Well i am not that good in mapping, but though i will try to give my best 
As my map doesnt look good on a screen i wont post one 
Its a short race map, easy to finish but hard to master.

I have just a thing to say :
Dead line is 1st September, so be patient and test a lot of time your map before posting.
You think some of the maps here are very bad?
I will give my judgement after the dead line, but i think some maps should be more worked.
And i have'nt seen any hprace, it is pity. We both very like hpraces with Sushi, so don"t be worry and try .
@Nox: I fixed it, and thanks for the server
@Everybody else: thanks for posting up the race maps. As lordskelethom says, though, make sure to rigorously test your maps for good gameplay.
i have the feeling there is a lot of off-topic on this thread, and nobody who could upvote my map would look on the first page, so i post my map again:

Gametype: Deth Match
Player: 4-6
Version: 0.5.1
Download: here
Screenshots: whole map / ingame 1 / ingame 2 / ingame 3
Description: A small Deth Match map made for up to 6 people. At the first playing the gameplay will be new and not as fluently as in ctf2 or dm7, but after some time you will find all the nice and flexible movements. So, @ the judgers: dont give your vote at the first effect! and at the other people: !arrow up!
@Landil: I agree that useless posts should be downloaded. But people are also downvoting the other judges and my posts, as well as helpful feedback. Next competition will have a wordpress blog, to clear this issue up.
@037: Please don't repost your map; it gives an unfair advantage.
@dinosmoothie: Sorry, I can't delete useless posts. You'll have to ask a moderator.
Well, but I would say: Improve your map until you think it's perfect and THEN upload it.
This is much more clear wich map is your final one and so on.. And why would you upload a map from wich you think it won't win with a high chance? So change your map untill it's perfect and THEN upload it.
You have got a lot of time, you know?
Oh, and Jon. I don't know if it has been asked before (I think yes), but at the end of the deadline, open a new topic where we have to show our maps.. This would be fair with the +1 voting, too.
