wish there were some sort of coding contest :(

anyway, I know this sounds crazy, but how about a huge scripted Middle Earth Map where you do the storyline ?

oh wait that's the Living world Map ;)


Good luck to all those who are going to participate to this :D

i thought about that too, but it means that you will also have to submit the map with your neighbour's name and email address (it's kinda in the official rules)

this sucks, most bfme2 players arent over 18 anyway

I'm guessing it's because they may not be able to send the prize to you if you're under eightteen. Too bad you can't give up a parent's account or address (depending on what the prize is, I don't know that)

I cant e-mail any of the staff Either, none of my e-mails get thorugh. Could someone else send an e-mail for me? I want to see what the Biggest NooB population on earth thinks of my map :)

got some very good news!!!

Neither ZBoard or EA asked for an age limit, it's an IGN legal thing.

...


We won't check ID.


so, looks like i'm gonna enter after all.

this is my idea (no stealing and comments please ;)):

there are 4 players. all start with some cash, a citadel and some production buildings. their base is locked by an indestructable gate (they have control over it). in the middle is a HUGE arena with mountains, ruins, cities, lakes etc. the goal is to be the first to kill gollum 3 times. you can go for him at once, but you can also look for creeps and/or money (because you won't earn any with your base) or kill the other players units to improve your chances

whadya think?
