If people were only able to WAIT for the guy to finish... 3 people edited the map despite the fact that I said I'll go after Gizmo... Nobody waited for Gizmo to finish, and did not even care that I said I wanted to be next. By the time I added my part to the last version Ktilkath just finished, you're already 2 on it. I just ask for a little part left on 2nd column and I'm good (and Agria water, by the way).
We will get everyones terrain in there don't worry :) but it is a bit of first in first serve. next person to say I'm working on it after the upload is, and will go off the latest post posted. Otherwise it gets hard to track if people post in between.
Make sure you post here that you work on it BEFORE you work on it, then refresh the page to see if nobody else did it at the same time to avoid confusion, then download the latest legit map and work on it, edit your post & attach the map when you're done. Best way to avoid your work going to waste.
Reading through the posts I do see you wanted to add your part, just make sure you do a last post saying it as I don't think everyone reads every single post.
That should just be enough to be noticed, right? "First come first serve" is not suitable for team work, as far as I can tell... That's why I'm kind of upset, not that I worry about not having my contribution included in the map. We're all losing time because of this, it's counterproductive.
(good luck to Gizmo and grenegg to figure which version is the latest since everyone keep updating their part)
We have pretty much enough space for now, it is just a matter of copy pasting the terrain and then copy pasting the doodads and your terrain is in the map. These things usually have 1 or 2 things going wrong but this editor can fix that:P
Remember this is probably going to go for another week, and you have almost filled in in one day. I think we may need some more squares for the people yet to work on it :)
As to where we are at now. we are gong to wait for zealnaga's version to be done, I can see there is a bit of confusion building up
Then I'll wait for Grenegg to copy/paste his part and I'll do the same next. Oh by the way, did any of you put "no building" pathing on his part? Shall we do it or do we let Mozared work on this part?
I added a tiny bit of no-building underneath 2 large doodads but that's it, I didn't put any on the path or so as I figured that'd be done later, and nev just confirmed:)
Now I'm not completely keeping track, but, similar to the previous exercises, this is how it should go:
BOB (22:00): I'm working on it
JOHN (22:05): I wanna work on it too!
BOB (22:15): I'm done yay!
CHRIS (22:20): I'm working on it
BOB (22:20): But I said it first! CHRIS gets the map.
In this example, it sucks to be Bob. Whoever replies first after the previous poster has posted that he is finished, and not that "he will take it", gets the map. It is "first come, first serve" as soon as the old editor posts that he is done. It's not "first come, first serve" in the sense that BOB can say "I'm working on it" after which JOHN says "I'll grab it after BOB" after which Chris says "Then I'll take it after JOHN". This creates queues and because not everybody always shows up or is ready and able to go, that's what I'm trying to prevent.
As a rule of thumb: if the poster above you says "I'm working on it", there isn't anything you can do with the map right now. If the poster above you says "I'm finished" and has attached a map, you can happily reply "I'll take it now", regardless of what folks before you have posted.===
For now, just try and take the latest build uploaded in this thread - people who have made different stuff should be able to copy in their terrain during their own "I'm working on it" time.
Edit: Alright, seriously, Wikicreole is the most fucked up mark-up type I've ever used =/
I'm on it.
Edit: Done.
I'm on it.
Edit: done
Working on it.
Done
working on it
edit: i was fast this time :\
Every time I finish. i have to copy it into a new map.
Attached may not havektlilkath's latest map
This is all very confusing
Wow some of these look totally awesome!
If this attention keeps up much longer, We are going to have to add in more areas :)

If you dont get my little note, basicly I dint wait for gizmo because-
oh look hes done
Ill do the job of fixing the versions.
EDIT: ? I could have sworn it said new post by gizmo

Gizmos last post is 33 mins ago atm.
Use Minee it has the latest!!! grenegg not included but has the other guys
btw anyone can edit my part to fixe it etc its ok :)
I think mozared will come in with his giant err.. pickle-head and fix the map with all your terrains.

k think we should import the SC2Mapster Billboards textures ? and add some adds in the map ? xDD
@ZealNaga: Go
I'll fix up the terrains ( without modifying ). so I will add in the pathing and all that jazz later :) just focus on designing your terrain :)
@GizmoPT: Go Mmmm I might do. But there will be sc2mapster on the loading screen and in the credits so I don't know if I'll add in the doodad as well
