Great to have your support, at least, Kedi.
GilB, you're probably right in that it might not be possible to squeeze it in before chrsitmas (and we can't really run it over christmas), so it might have to be in 2005 - and maybe that would give time to recuperate from the 'Emprolypics' you describe - although I'm sure a large number of people would still love to play.As for Children of the Nile, I would be surprised if people would not be relieved or at least prepared to go back into a game they know back to front for a few weeks, to have a break from learning a whole new game (which they would be doing at the time). That's assuming that, unlike me and Kedi, they even have the money/time to buy the game that soon after it comes out.
As far as designers are concerned, we would need to recruit some, PDQ! Designing missions is not hard - but designing good missions is really, really tough. But any ideas or suggestions for maps/objectives would be greatly appreciated (I'm sure) by said designers (so they don't have to do too much initial thinking, and can get on with building the things). That's all assuming that we can get some designers, so if you have any hidden up your sleeve, now's the time to call them out!CALLING ALL DESIGNERS!!! YOU WOULD HAVE OUR ETERNAL THANKS IF YOU WOULD BE PREPARED TO SPEND A FEW HOURS OF YOUR VALUABLE FREE TIME MAKING US SOME MAPS!!! PLEASE!!! WE'RE BEGGING YOU!!!
If anyone has any 'complete' ideas for any event, please post them here so we have something to work on when/if we ever get some designers to build the maps.
If we can't find any friendly designers, then we'll just have to build the maps ourselves (but that might degrade the quality of the event a little, don't you think?!?). In order for this to be a really stirling competition, though, we would need at least some of the maps (the ones where you really notice the little details (so the relay wouldn't be one of them)) to be made by experts if we possibly can!!
