As the title says, we are 2 months through the 4 months on the schedule to develop a map for the next competition.  Deadline is Dec 31, 2011.  I was just curious how things were coming along.  Please feel free to invite me to any testing games.

I've got a map that seems to be coming along pretty good, but probably needs a bit more tweaking still:

• There Will Be Blood

I've seen 2 others:

• Gunslinger, by Amidon37 & weathertop

http://www.wargear.net/boards/view/2848/Board%20Explorer

• Tycoons! by Edward Nygma

http://www.wargear.net/boards/view/2802

I'm continually impressed with the talents of the board makers on this site.  Ridiculously impressed.

I hope this isn't a bad sign.  Or maybe I should be happy... 3 contestants, prizes for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd...

I have taken up the call to arms, though I fear my design will be quite a challenge to complete by the deadline, especially given the upcoming holiday season. Oh well, here goes nothin'!

I am in!  But I need some day players that can help me run some quick test games.

Glad to see there is a bit more interest!  Raptor, I'd love to help, but I am a night player.  Can you do nights at all?  I was thinking maybe we could organize a dev game lightning night sometime soon.  We just need 4 or 5 people, and we could play 3 or 4 lightning games simultaneously.

Raptor - I'm a night player through the end of this week, but once I'm back from my business trip (Monday) I can probably help you out if you need it.
