Best of Forge
Spring/Summer '08

Welcome all Hubbers, new and seasoned; young and old. Do love custom games? Do you love forge maps that bring out the most fun Halo has to offer? Well, this voting session will determine what the best of the best forge maps are. Will your favorite emerge on top? Vote now (or by July 20th) and come back July 24th for results.

With all types of glitches and new methods of forging popping up, keeping informed of all the best maps the community has to offer is a tricky proposition. There are more than enough top quality maps to fill a 360's hard drive thrice over, so we're endeavouring to discern the cream of the crop twice yearly. So here it is, in its glory.

The voting will follow a very similar format as the first "Best of Forge". There are several threads named after their own voting category. If you wanted to nominate a map for a specific category, post in the relevant thread. Here’s a template response:

"I nominate (map name) due to it’s strong qualities - more specifically, (list some details). It can be found here, (Name of map)"

The first vote counts as a nomination, and all further votes are counted as one vote. All votes will be counted equally - it doesn't matter how well known you are.


Here are the rules, all put in one place, and reiterated.

• The map you nominate or vote for cannot be your own.
• The map must have been posted on ForgeHub.
• The map has to have been made between January 1st and June 30th.
• All votes and nominations must be serious. If the map you submit is a joke, it will be discarded and ignored. Infractions may follow.
• You may only post once in each thread - that post will be for your nomination or vote.
• Please be advised that anyone found creating duplicate accounts in order to spam votes will be furiously permabanned. Don't do it!

As shown on the flyer the categories are:

• Aesthetic - Bee eee aye yootiful.
• Mini-Game - Small little game has you playing all day long.
• Race - Vroom Vroom.
• MLG - Competitive, right weapon set.
• Design - Well planned out, and flows very well.
• Infection/Casual - It's not a contest to win, just have fun!
• Technical - Use of switches, or other mechanisms.
• Slayer - Team or FFA Slayer.
• Objective - Flag captured. Bomb planted. Either is acceptable.
• Most Original - Never seen this before!
• Overall - The most fun, the most competitive, and just the best - all put together in one map!
