I finished the map 5 minutes ago...and have been now fumbling about trying to prep it for release

[thebigh]

Nice! Congratulations. I, for one, will consider it "submitted on time" regardless. 

[DeTeEff]

It is on time. Some day here or there doesn't matter. More stuff to loot is the point

[Uncertain Title]

Managed to get it packaged correctly, triple checked that the map still runs and then made backups...now to figure out how to release it.

TLDR:

Upload to google drive \ dropbox , etc

Create a mission thread and add the shared mission link to it.

I might have missed it in this thread, but when does voting close on this contest?

[nbohr1more]

I was planning on ending voting on Christmas but I figured that we would need to watch participation in the missions so that at least 15 players voted to prevent too much skew from a single bad rating.

If we can get 15 or more participants in all threads before the end of November we could probably end voting at the end of the first week of December but if it's slow going on vote participation we may need to draw things out to Christmas or later.

Congratulations to everyone who completed their FMs!  Real life blew up on me again the last 2 months, but I'll be getting back to it in December.  Here's to another 15 years of TDM

I think all the missions have now hit the 15 vote milestone, so how about we close the contest at the weekend of Dec 7-8?

I don't have work tomorrow so I think I'll do the count then.

Congratulations to all the participants!
