Thread: June/July '19 Lite Challenge: Where the Monsters Are! VOTING

  1. #11

    Hi guys, a lot of these look unfinished to me, or at least lacking some finishing touches. Was the deadline too short?

    I wonder how it would look like if it was a collaboration challenge. If two people were responsible for finishing a map, would the added pressure force them to meet the deadline? And wouldn't it result in higher quality work from everybody overall? Was there a challenge like that in the past, and if so, can anyone link to it?

    There are almost always unfinished maps in the challenges. It's just one of those things. People start out with the best of intentions, but sometimes life gets in the way. If something comes up that needs your time, it won't make any difference whether you're on your own or partnered with someone else. And perhaps the guilt of potentially letting down your partner would stop people from entering in the first place.

    The other problem with collaboration is that so many people have different styles and use different software/drawing media, so trying to find a compatible partner - who also has the time - may limit the number of entries quite drastically.

    Collaboration is a nice idea, and I think it's been suggested before, but I'm just not sure how well it would work in practice. (Of course, I might be wrong, and there are a whole bunch of people who'd love to try it, and maybe we will one day...!) We have done challengers where people give a brief to a partner, but I don't believe we've ever had two people working on the same map.

    Thanks for putting forward the idea, Kisachik. I'm always game for taking on a new Challenge and collaboration always sounds like fun to me. However, ChickPea did bring up some serious concerns.
    You may want to check out the Challenge Suggestion forum and maybe post your idea there.

    In other news, I got my votes in! Yay! There were some truly great ones and limiting myself to three votes was almost impossible this time.
    Congratulations to everyone who submitted an entry. Keep up the great work!

    Lastly, but certainly not leastly, a big, special thank you to Bogie whose tireless efforts make all this fun possible.
