Yes, rgoer is right, Seremtan, that map is disqualified. Other maps are welcome however.

Bad maps aren't that hard. All bad maps are concept maps, regardless of the game. Some 14 yo had the thought "HeY WuDnT iT bE k00L 2 HaV TeH plaYEr iN a MaZe WiHt LAvA trApD00rZZZ OMFG ROFL LOL!!!111" then combined that concept with having the aesthetic sensibility of a duck, and presto.

To truly make a bad map, to make a person scream with horror as he gets his first glimpse of the map, falling off his chair in utter fear. After several minutes of calming himself down, he dares a second glimpse and slowly touches the mouse, turning around, the sight that awaits him are horrible, but he can handle seeing it. The map bugs then drive him mad with anger! He smashes his keyboard because of the non-working staircase and the elevator going in the wrong direction! Finally, after so much agitation, he bashes his head against the wall until the front of his brain has been turned to mush, and he falls down dead.

Mates, this is the point of mapping.

don't forget to include instructions for how to see all the pain, I might miss something if you don't tell me what to look for.

There was no way I could finish in time, so I got drunk instead. But I'll go ahead and finish it anyway for giggles.

Well, i won't win worst map. Maybe I'll win worst lighting or failed attempts at humor. Kaziganthe you got competition on that.

Sorry if you were expecting me to submit something. :(

My week was pretty full, and when I heard the deadline was Friday, I just kinda thought "oh well"...

I'd be in on a second one if there was a bit more notice/time.

survivor won. kaziganthe made a very cool and horrible map, but the overall effort and advanced shader work in it made it look pretty cool in some ways. Therefore, survivor wins, it has some lol gameplay and pretty shitty lighting. I thought my map was the most horrible, but I'm judge so I can't compete. Maybe kaz would have won if he explained who the people are, to me they're just random folks. Feel free to put your maps up for public viewing.
