2 weeks please.
Red classic.
"In short, their absurdities are so extreme that it is painful even to quote them."
MAKE THE DUE DATE TODAY, YAH?
None.
Actually, although I would enjoy another week to fix some things, If we DO make it extended into 2010, that defeats the spirit of the competition
Afterall it is the
2009 challenge.

wow you guys had an entire
YEAR to finish your project xD.
I want an official announcement by today because...I'm confused now. Who takes an entire year to make a sc map???
Anyway I'm wrapping up my project, worked on it for like 20 hours over 2 days @_@.
Hurray for crunching!
None.
EXTEND IT PLEASE !
bughunting isn't that fun and takes a while in my map (translating + importing + waiting ingame = a few minutes)...

I second this.
I support the idea of extending the deadline, as many people still seem to be in the stage of polishing their maps. The extra time would allow the contestants to finalize and test their maps more carefully, and insure that we get to play maps with considerably less bugs and errors.
I completely agree that this is much more of an exhibition of maps than a competition, and therefore it will be much better for everyone if the contestants are let to finish up their projects appropriately.
"Oh man, a week or 2 extra would be such a relief, and you may get to see the finished version of the map if that's the case. I'm all for it, and I think most people in the contest are too."
It's not about winning, it's about releasing high quality maps etc. I may try get my map done if there's extra time.
2 weeks would be awesome, i could try whipping up a demo of some sort.
I think two weeks might be a bit too much, one week sounds okay though.
Because of the weight behind it, I AM going to extend the deadline by two weeks. I think Psionic_Storm put it best; the objective is to have as many great maps as we can, the better better our maps are, the better for everyone.

THAR.
The difference between these two weeks and any other two weeks is Winter Break, for many people.
I am against 2 extra weeks because my map is completed on time and the two extra weeks will drastically decrease my chances of winning.
You've been outweighed, unfortunately. There is always room for improvement, however, especially in an AoS were balance needs to be so fine-tuned- if there wasn't you wouldn't be worried about your chances waning.
New deadline: January 14th 2010, 11:59 pm PST.

I don't think it should be extended. Some of us worked really hard to get it done by the deadline and this extension would just make our hard work worth nothing. The other mappers had a WHOLE YEAR to get these complete, yet they chose to work on it too late. This extension only helps out the ones who procrastinated. It doesn't reward the ones who actually met the deadline. A deadline is a deadline. I believe if they don't meet it, it's too bad. Again, they had a WHOLE YEAR to get this done, and they want a 2 weeks extension? Are you kidding me? Why could you not do this map making in that WHOLE YEAR you could have worked on it in?
None.
I feel this decision was all for the best

Yeah that is somewhat aggravating. Guess we need to give these procrastinators a bit more time. Who knows they could come up with something special...maybe. Gives non procrastinators more time anyway.

Family. Work. Problems in life more important than mapping. All these different things can add up and consume so much time that it can take MORE than a year to map. Ever consider that?
None.
I feel this decision was all for the ones who were not ready.

lol xdd
I guess we all can submit a newer version of our map if you already submitted one. Who knows, our maps might contain a terrible bug that activates half-way in? ;o
None.

Of course. I don't mean to be cruel, but those aren't our problems. We shouldn't be thrown off because of YOUR problems. We shouldn't have to extend it because of YOUR problems. You have to deal with it, not us.
None.
I think the solution is simple. Bonus points to those who have a complete and submitted map TOMMOROW! The others can take their 2 weeks (I'll be one of them since this does give me opportunity to complete mine). The soul purpose of this contest is to create the ultimate RPG on SC before SC 2 is released. You can't decide who made the Ultimate RPG if most people are not as complete as they'd like to be.. I know of a few mappers that spent more then a year working on their RPGs.
None.

'us' Is maybe 5 people, give or take a few. The rest might have had the same problems, so it's not only me, it's MAJORITY of those in the competition or whatever you want to call this. So we're all bending to the needs of those who mostly procrastinated [I'll give you that], but for those of us who have real reasons why we need a quick extension, the rest of you need to just suck it up for the time being and take advantage of the opportunity to try and improve absolutley anything and everything. Sitting there complaining about it won't help at all, it'll just irritate the rest of us, I don't mean to be rude but that's how it is.

Really? Bonus points?
Now you are getting me hyped up to crunch on my project again @_@

Since when is 2 weeks a short extension? I would be fine if it were a few days, but 2 weeks? You don't need that much time ifyou needed small fixes. You can get a map started and finished in that time for all I know...
@ultimo who said they can't finish it after the contest is over?
None.
Seriously, if you guys are really hung up on this, give those who complete the map before the 1st 1000+ extra points in every category. You guys are getting hung up too much on the competitive nature of the contest.
hmm agreed. Above all else I just wanted to submit a map, not necessarily to win.
None.
