AoD Map Competition
To add some new maps to the AoD server, there will be a map competition hosted on Create in the Competition world @ /warp competition. Although you can pick any game type you want, the following are the game types we are in need of maps for:
- Capture the Flag
- Free For All
- Tag
- Zombie
- Needs to be well built and have good aesthetics.
- Chests need to be added, and these have to be balanced across the map.
- No area of the map can have more overpowered chests than another area.
- Staff can help with balancing chests, although try to do this yourself.
- Tag
- Aesthetics and gameplay should be considered, although gameplay should be the priority.
- There must be lots of jumps and areas for humans to go, however try to minimise the number of hiding spots.
- No chests should be used.
- Capture the Flag
- Aesthetics and gameplay should be considered, although gameplay should be the priority.
- The map needs to be almost a mirror on either side, so both teams have fair game play.
- Try to minimize confusion on the map so players know where to go.
- Needs both a spawn location and a flag location for both teams. Try to have the spawn location relatively far away from the flag location so flag carriers aren’t instantly killed.
- Free for All
- Aesthetics and gameplay should be balanced here. You can focus on aesthetics more because Free for All maps are often more simple.
- A fair amount of open space is required, and corridors cannot be too small.
- The map can’t be too large, to make sure all players can find each other.

This should be an incentive to make the best possible map you can!
You will have 3 weeks to create your map, then after this time is up, all maps submitted will be judged. To enter a map for the competition, you must prefix your thread with [Competition].
Rules:
There are a couple of rules for the competition:
- You have up to 3 weeks to create your map.
- The map can be no larger than 128x128 blocks (a little bit over is fine).
- You may work in a team, however if you place in the top 3, you will have to decide who receives which prize.
- Multiple maps can be submitted, however if you win multiple you may only receive one prize set.
- The map may be made outside create, however you still have the same restrictions as other players.
- WorldEdit is allowed, however voxel sniper may not be used.
That should about cover it, is you have any questions, contact either tnmjimbob or ComputerGuy_!
