Speedrunning Competition (January 7th - January 27th)
 
Quote
The speedrunning contest will be similar to Beginnings 3. We will release 2 maps each week (6 maps in total), one being for demo and one for soldier. Players can participate in both the demo and soldier competitions.  Stage 1 will be released on January 7th. You will have 1 week from the release of the map (That following Friday 11:59pm PST) to submit the week's map's runs.

How to submit your runs
 
How to name your demos
 
Name your demo in this format:  map_time_name_tick_demotype
Example:  Beyond_2_01_3_Kendrick_9000_POV
 
This would be a 2:01.3 run on jump_beyond by Kendrick that starts at tick 9000.  Naming your demo correctly makes it much easier to find and watch demos. Please try and include both POV and STV demos! 
 
Prizes
 
This year we are doing things a bit differently. There is no more 'overall' category for speedrunning. Only the top 3 per map will get rewards. We are also doing a prize pool for every event. This means the more you donate, the larger the prizes!

60% of the Prize Pool Total
1st - 10% per map (of that 60%)

Trickjump Competition (December 24th - January 27th)
 
Quote
There will be 3 trickjump categories, solo (soldier and demo) and co-op (any class). You can submit a max of 4 jumps for solo and 3 jumps for co-op (so you can submit 7 total if you want). This means you cannot submit 3 solo soldier jumps and 2 solo demo jumps.

How to submit your jumps
 
How to name your demos
 
Name your demo in this format:  jump_category_(class if solo)_map_name(s)_tick_demotype
Example (solo jump):  jump_solo_soldier_Trix_Kendrick_69420_pov
Example (co-op jump):  jump_coop_Trix_Kendrick_HeliX_69420_stv
 
Please include both POV and STV demos or your submission might not be reviewed.

If protist doesn't come back we might need to delay the event or use another mapper for stage 1. Unfortunate that he missed the deadline and never even emailed me about it so we could have moved the date beforehand. Thinking we are going to delay it by 1-2 weeks right now to make it a better event time for everyone.


New start date for speedrunning: January 7th, 2017
