You've had roughly 2 months.
You've got to understand that it's the hollidays, people are busy with their lives and are out doing !@#$%. I doubt there's a big enough nerd in here to stay home and say "OH NO I GOTTA WORK ON MY CONTEST TODAY SORRY GUYZ."
The reason why I say it would work better during school time is because everyone is home and they spend alot of time there, as opposed to going places during the hollidays.
If you can't come up with something workable in that time, and aren't willing to change your plans from a grand, playable demo of a dungeon, then that sucks for you. It's not like I didn't give you time.
We wanted to make something people would enjoy, not a piece of paper with tons of notes written all over it. I didn't think it was worth it not making it playable to be honest, or at least mapping it very nicely.
I'm anxious to see what other people did, though.
Along with warnings that people shouldn't plan too big.
This is true, we
did plan too big.
So basicly, I'm really sorry we couldn't make it. It
is our fault, I never said you didn't give us enough time.
