Revamp-A-Map Competition

[ivory cedar]

The RAM competition would be one similar to BAM, however it would involve revamping a pre-existing map, like blue house.

This competition would be held more often than BAM is, but have less rewards, like currency.

Some maps we have are starting to get somewhat stale, so this competition would allow more maps to be updated, instead of waiting 3 weeks for 0-3 new/updated maps.

The judging system would be overall the same, it's just there would be no finalists that the community would vote on.

These competitions would last 1-3 days, as crazy revamps would not be nessacary.

Butt-Coin stashes would either have new locations, or no new ones.

For any other missed information you could probably fill out to some extent easily.

Maybe for a community event but this doesn't need to be official

[ivory cedar]

I've hosted one before.

It's just that if official it would be more enticing

and have some new things to the game than what we have

[slim dawn]

just host one lol

dont make this official

[ivory cedar]

well it's not super complicated

and like i said

official ones are more enticing

and itd provide semi-new content

[slim dawn]

dude the only side-bam they need is a honorable mention finalist section

[ivory cedar]

they don't need bam whatsoever, it's nice to have

your point of "it's not needed" could apply to every suggestion

[slim dawn]

bam is nice, if they were all just revamped maps itd be boring and you'd play it for a minute maximum

and when i say its not needed i mean itd be a waste of time to host when you could literally do it yourself

[ivory cedar]

this is something I'd find nice aswell, I wouldn't find maps with new twists boring, as it'd be better having constantly shifting features instead of just 1 for almost a month at a time

and although your point is exaggerated, it would last longer than you expect

and bam can always be hosted ourselves too

[slim dawn]

well you should host it yourself then

the people who would want to join would join, instead of the real bam where people are doing it to win and not much else

[ivory cedar]

Well I did once, and didn't get many people, mostly because one, community events isn't that popular, and 2, there's not a contest without a prize

[slim dawn]

put it somewhere more popular then

and if the contest is for the prize then its not a good contest

people wouldnt be happy to participate theyd be mad to lose

[brisk slate]

Wait why do I love this idea?

What if it had revamp themes? Like “ocean”

[ivory cedar]

community events is where you're supposed to host, community events lol

and a bunch contests, like Olympics, Football, Soccer, etc, would be "bad" by your standards, because they all host a contest with a prize

and it's fine for people to feel angry or upset when they lose, as long as they don't take it out on others (which happens like every BAM)

the only issue, I'll for sure recognize is the time judges and devs would put into this competition

[slim dawn]

Olympics are good because people go in for the fun if it (i think, idk Olympic stuff) but the way yeeps community is, seems like if this was official itd be worse, and if you really need a prize for it you can do a buttcoin prize

sry for late respond btw i got sidetracked

[ivory cedar]

Countries send out people to say that, they are the best at whatever athlete won whatever sporting event.

I won't deny that people are also in it for some fun, but winning something is a big factor

also late response is fine

[slim dawn]

idk man, i just personally think making a revamp contest official isnt something trass would do, they havent made comp official either

idk tho

[ivory cedar]

some truth ig but if they made bam they always could make this

them again 1% of suggestions are actually used

[slim dawn]

yeah suggestions not being used that often rly sucks

this is a good idea dont get me wrong

it just doesnt seem likely

[ivory cedar]

the only suggestions that i defo think shouldn't happen are more lr exclusive items and that's all I can remember lol

[silver wasp]

yea 90% of them already think they are above others and this would make it worse

[slim dawn]

i got a list
suction cups
bundle exclusive items
log in on mobile
badge removal
uhh something
more useless items
bat but when you let it go it shoots out a block (ok but seriously why)

[slim dawn]

someone suggested that last one

[silver wasp]

thoughts

[ivory cedar]

invisible ball bad

basically better smoke bomb

making it irrelevant

[silver wasp]

nah just read it i think i made it balanced

[silver wasp]

nah i added thermal goggles in the paragraph aswell

to like counter

[ivory cedar]

eh it's balanced but just thermal goggles would be not fun to use it

[silver wasp]

maybe like a button the the right of ur head or smth

[ivory cedar]

maybe like a detector that beeps more the closer they are

and items held are visible

[silver wasp]

yeah like a emf detector

[silver wasp]

yeah except pins on your body cus thats not fair

[ivory cedar]

just held items

so equipped grapples and sleds wouldn't be visible

unless you held em

ofc

[silver wasp]

yeah

cus then theres no point

[ivory cedar]

personally i think lr badge should be removed, but it's kinda odd now since they've already given it out
