(Taken from in-game message)
This is the first ever contest I’ve judged, and although it was definitely a rollercoaster, I had a pretty good time with it! (Huge thank you to Paz for inviting me to be a judge). I apologize if some of my feedback is harsh, it’s all in good faith and I primarily want to see mappers take this feedback and use it to further improve the quality of their mapping. Regardless of score, I want to thank all the mappers for submitting maps. Mapping can be and is VERY hard. I also did a lot of lobby work! I deco’d most of the lobby, created the map entrances, tidying up the camera, and did some restructuring of Paz’s original draft. Definitely a lot more than I’d imagine myself doing, but I’m still quite proud of my (average) deco/mapping skills. I hope you enjoy the contest and what all these mappers have cooked up!

If you want to see what the other judges said about this contest, download the map and check out their messages in-game. Also note that I tried to do all these maps without cheese, but sometimes I just can't help it :sob:.
