It's a bit dubious posting a competition for a non hammer event.
I figured anyone in 'General Games' section wouldn't give two hoots about mapping :shrug:
But you are entirely correct, but alas, the forums is now dying over there. Mappers disappeared suddenly, so I figured if someone wanted to extend their boundaries a little :wink: from here
Heck I'll try it out.
Wait Soldat has an SDK?
Damn.
Fucking hell man, this game is still kicking? I remember making maps for it ages ago!

Hahaha, awesome; wonder if I ever bumped into you [map making], unless you were pre-2006--I joined March 2007
Remember in 2006-2007, when SML was still around, Soulsnipa would host (bi)monthly mapping contests filled with submissions from a multitude of people? Those were glorious times for the Soldat mapping community.

I used to play and map back in middle school, good times.
This was one of my favourite school time games. Me and my mates would play it during computer class when we couldnt get away with Unreal or CS/Half-life
I got the honor of joining in at the tail end of the glorious days, when Keron Cyst, Wraithlike, and Demonic were still actively mapping and waypointing. Good times ^.^ and yeah I remember SML; well, it's pretty dead now :shrug:

Haha, we played that sledding game where you draw the lines and have the little guy sled down them (linerider).. Never tried Soldat back then :\

This is a great initiative, hopefully we get some good entries.
I am willing to donate prizes, up to USD $20 in steam games, paypal.
I also have a giftable killing floor on steam, waiting to be given away.
