August Mapping Competition - Vote for the Winners - Vote closes Sept. 8th.

Monsen

So, with august firmly in the rear view mirror, the competition is over and it is time to vote for the winners.

As stated in the rules, there will be two categories to vote on. Think these through when voting, best map and most visually stunning map isn't the same thing, mapping is more than making things beautiful.

• Best Building: Who made the best building overall. This includes all the floors.
• Most interesting floorplan: Which floorplan is the most interesting one? A floorplan can be interesting because it has a special twist, because it is very highly detailed, because it has an interesting story, or whatever you think makes it interesting. Note that this is judged on the basis for each floor, not the building as a whole. For this category, visual looks is low priority, unless the visuals is what makes it interesting.

I am giving everyone two votes here, which means there are 4 poll questions below to answer, 2 for each category. Please vote even if you didn't take part in the competition.

I am going to keep the poll open for a week. I am also drawing the two random prizes at the end of the vote.

And as usual, don't despair if you end up with 0 votes. The number of people voting in these contests aren't large enough to give a proper distribution, so the votes tends to clump along the handful of maps that people like the very most, with the maps receiving few or no votes, even if they're not that far behind. That's what happens when you convert quality to numbers through voting.

All submitted entries are included in the vote, but certain people, like ProFantasy employees and contest managers are not eligible for a prize, so if they get into the top, prizes will just move down to the next one in the list. Same if someone don't want their prize, or one person wins multiple (Each entry is only eligible for one prize)

Voting in these contests doesn't get any easier, I have to say! But then again, I got a bit too distracted looking over all the entries, forgot what it was I was meant to be looking out for, so had to go back and start again... Just so many amazing contributions.

Everyone who entered should think of themselves as a winner, never mind what the voting may say!

Maidhc O Casain

Agreed! Y'all are some genius level cartographic artistes!

Really amazing work, people, this is gorgeous. Expect a blog post about it early next week! :)

@Monsen , Two of my maps seem to be missing - the roof and the basement.

Just wondering if the open sewage canal in the basement of the town hall was a "subtle" comment on the state of local politics in the city of Vertshusen? ;-)

My apologies for that. Not sure what happened there, I was so sure I had copied all the images correctly. I've added them now.

Everyone, if this means anyone want to change their vote, give me a word and I should be able to delete your old vote so you can wote again.

LOL!

Well, Quenten having pointed out the sewage system map, and the sewer being smack underneath the Town Hall and Tax Office, I could hardly ignore it ;)

@EdE definitely a point. LOL
