The Sandbox Template Contest is a contest I came up with and after talking to several people higher up at Forge Hub I have decided to run.

As most people know, using the default items is a good way to get extra items and avoid hitting the OLN. Well I don't personally like having canvases on my Xbox, I think they take up space and seeing as how most people are very close to the 100 custom content limit I think most people would agree with me.

My contest is to see who can turn all of the default Sandbox items into the best playable map. This contest will have three winners, one for each floor of Sandbox, and will run from now (11:59 PM EST June 1st) till 11:59 PM EST August 1st, two months exactly. Any map that violates the rules of the compitetion (located below) will be disqualified.

Rules:

Must use all of the default Sandbox Scenery items.
The Weapons and Vehicles are up you, you are allowed to spawn one wood bridge large and one weapon holder to put all unused items in these catagories on.
All items must be on the same level of Sandbox (Including all spawning and objective items)
Nothing may be deleted from default Sandbox.
No Spawning any items aside from one wood bridge and one weapon holder.

Maps will be judged on their own merit and the best for the most catagories will be chosen. Gameplay and Aesthetics should go hand in hand and one should not be sacrificed for the other. All types of maps (competitive, MLG, mini-games) are welcome.

Map submissions should be posted here with a link to your map's original Forge Hub thread, as well as the creator(s) name(s). Forging in groups of two is allowed.

Any questions? Please feel free to post here and I will answer them ASAP.
