The theme is completely arbitrary now that I think about it, so I don't know how you'll be able to judge it well. "Over the top" doesn't mean much except exceeding someone's expectations. If a mapper knew how to only make simple defense maps, then a more "complex" map like Crash RPG may seem as over the top for him/her.

Now you know why it is impossible to get disqualified from the theme, it's subject to a lot of interpretation, I was curious to see how it would work.
None.

Then I would say it is a poor theme since the threat of disqualification is the entire point of having a theme
In reality, you could very easily disqualify people who clearly did not make their map with "over the top" in mind.
I don't see how Zombie House is in anyway related to the theme.
It's probably one of the most discreet zombie games out there in SC1 UMS.
Also, the gun that costs 1700$ to buy has 20 ammo and has a huge ass reloading time
it one hit kills zombies, but that only gives me 20 minerals.
to get more ammo, I need to spend $400
so basically, with a new magazine, i can get max 400$.. which is the same cost as the magazine itself, so I will never earn anything
that's such a bad flaw.. ugh...
Tho I must commend you for making a very good zombie system.
None.
It gives 20 ammo? It supposed to be 24. Its also strategically placed next to the upgrade that doubles magazine size + max ammo. Either way it will need to be fixed. I plan on making any necessary edits after I get back and the contest is over. Thanks for the help tho much appreciated
o yes and it only 1 hits zombies until level 6 >.<
None.
My judging scale is as such: I give everyone a 5 on everything (or 2.5 on the smaller ones) and alter it one way or the other depending on what I liked in the map. So pretty much as long as you submit a map that is kinda original, small amounts of attention to detail on terrain, audio, and text aesthetics (or at least 2 of those), has more than just a+moving in the gameplay, has some tiny bit of theme, and is done, you will score a 50%. Everything that goes above and beyond that gets more points.

You can still edit the map. We're not judging them until after the deadline.
None.
I order you to forgive yourself!
If I have time, I may try to make something. I have an idea.
My project will be ready in 1-2 days, but I got stuck with some terrain blends...guess I'll send the map without them

Here's my entry. I started on friday so it's probably still pretty buggy. I've played it a few times with pubbies today and it seemed to run smoothly though.
Enjoy
Edit: I keep fixing bugs so make sure you download the latest version.

Gah I was going to start my map today because it was the only day I had free. I can't work on a map for hours on. I guess I will try out for the next contest. Good luck to the other contestants.
None.
