    We cant seem to go a month clear without some challenge cock up.

    Sorry... I edited the original post to clear that up.

    The original text is below with the addition underlined. It was just a typo that "at least" got missed from one of the requirements sections as both the first and third contained the missing text.

    • Every square must contain at least 1 water course.
    • 1/5th (20) must contain at least 2 watercourses.
    • 1/10th (10) must contain at least 3 watercourses.

    Post Shining up my badge!

    Well guys, I'm currently shining up my River Police badge and get the old Radar gun recalibrated. This month, I'm just going to watch and point out any river police issues. I've got my hands full with commission work, plus building my Kaidan setting for the CWBP. So I am not going to participate in the challenge this month.

    Good luck everyone, I will be oogling for river anamolies, however!

    Evening Officer. I'm here to hand myself in. I'm hoping for a non-custodial sentence and a warning though. Would love it if you would treat me as a first time offender even though that may not be completely factually accurate.

    I finally came up with an idea, so I may or may not join xD


    Depends on how fast I can make it...

    Read the general rules here: http://www.cartographersguild.com/showthread.php?t=503

    and the challenge specific rules in the first post of this thread.

    Not a lot of time left, as the challenges usually close, and all threads are locked 5 days before the month end, then there is voting for 5 days.

    start a new thread in this forum, using the same name format as the others and add the LATEST WIP with the ###'s around it in the last post that has an attached image so the thumbnail scraper script can grab it.

    Think that is about it.... Good luck, and more importantly, have fun, and learn something new!

    Thanks heaps for your quick reply. I am on hollidays right now. I think 5-6 days will be enough. Not in it to win it. Just to learn and have fun. But maybe next time I'll kill it...lol.

    Regards

    2 things real quick...are river violations acceptable (natural violations not challenge rules violations)? and is it good or bad to help others with said natural violations? I'd hate to rule out a map if I could have helped someone.

    And then there are those of us who wouldn't know a violation, natural or otherwise, if it reached up and bit us on the arse.

    Ought to make voting interesting, anyway...

    It's never bad to help someone out as long as we're nice about it. The point of the challenge was to draw believable river systems, so if someone has rivers that cut from one sea to another or has 5 outputs from a lake, then yea, give them a hand. End result, each voter will determine if someone violated the rules (I have "personally" disqualified several beautiful maps from my vote cause I don't think they followed the challenge rules...)
