(mushsect had time to make a funny image so i, korby, have edited it in without telling freems i did so)



Hello everyone, it's Freems and after much waiting, welcome to the tenth Cutstuff Mapping Jam!

For those who do not know, Jam is a community mapping event where we just get a ton of people together to make some maps for the game. We always welcome both old and new mappers, and in fact, encourage new mappers to try to make a map for the first time if they've ever thought about it! Jam is not a contest but more just a place for everyone to make some maps and stick em' in a pack!

This was usually a yearlyish thing, but I've been waiting for V6C to come out before hosting the next one so we can all play with some of the new tools that the version offers, but obviously that took a little longer than originally planned. But we finally made it!

Firstly, if you're new to mapping and are interested in trying, please check out the mapping tutorial on our wiki right here! It's a great way to get started.

Jam as always, is broken into two phases. The first will last about three weeks and will consist of every mapper making a small map piece, which acts as one's sign up. Once those three weeks are done, every mapper will be assigned two other map pieces and will get to make a map with them!

In the past we've done some gimmicks to go along with Jam, but as it's been a while and it lines up with a big version release, I want this Jam to be a little more open so the only gimmick in play will be the normal map pieces one. I want people to just kind of be able to do what they want (as long as they use those pieces!)

There are a few guidelines for pieces which I'll copy/paste from every past year below!



Remember, your map piece will act as your sign up! I'm trying to figure out a system where people who are late can do these things, but I don't have something set in stone quite yet so until then I'm still going to say the map piece will act as your sign up!
If you have any questions about anything whatsoever, please do not be afraid to ask! I think it's fun for veterans to make some maps, but I really do like to help newbies learn how to make maps too, so if there's anything you're confused about, do not worry about asking questions, I'm more than happy to help!

In this era of not having forum PMs, please submit all map pieces to my Discord account (which is Freems). I'm doing a slightly longer signup period just because the version did come out like 3 days ago. So submissions will close at Sunday, November 8th at 11:59pm EST or in reality when I wake up the next morning and start setting up phase 2.

I think that's everything I have to cover here. Phase 2 I'll talk more about things such as DOMINATION but spoilers: no one will be forced to add it.
Here's to another great jam!

Map/Attendance Rules:
-Players pick 3 maps, and maps are spun on a wheel to determine map pick.
-Players may forfeit their maps all together though this means only your opponent's maps are spun.
-if both opponents do not have a map list, a map will be chosen randomly.
--you may pick maps but forfeit your spins to an opponent as well if you desire.
-you are given at minimum a 10 minute grace period to your match. If you do not attend, you forfeit the win to your opponent. This may be shortened/extended given the situation at my discretion.

The prize is 100usd via paypal or games on steam up to or close to a value of 100usd.

-Signups close October30th.

Mappacks:

-RealPack
-Peggpack

All maps from core + these 4 are acceptable
Please list your 3 maps in the forum posts ahead of time before the tournament. I will write down any maps on there on the 30th, so you have until then to change your map picks if you desire.

Duels:
-15 minutes, 6 frags.
--In the event of a tie, there will be a run back on the same map, first to frag wins and moves on.
-no skin packs will be added by the server, only vanilla/core skins will be usable.

CS UPDATE: i'll be closing signups again 24 hours from now! it seems like the rate has slowed regardless, but now is your last chance!

Hello, i want to clarify me and Mushsect decided to grant another week to let people send their submissions in time, the deadline is updated, at the time i should have accounted for the fact some peeps have a very busy schedule, my oversight.
