    I feel it is a bit complicated, since on one hand it does make it easier for people to do it. But I've seen time and again the motivation to finish the map if it is two months does not carry the same drive.

    So while there are pro's to this, it has some heavy cons too.

    That being said, I liked the 2 month window better as well. I should be able to start up the lite challenges again soon.
    My question to you guilders is "should I start March 15th and run until May 14th (with the regular challenge going on March 5th to May 5th or should I
    Start April 2nd ish and running until May 31st?
    I do like the overlap but that's because that's what I'm used to. I know I was AWOL for a couple of years but since getting back into mapping I've somehow picked up some silvers. I see the silvers as a great way to push one's boundaries whereas the golds are a showcase as well as pushing boundaries. I like when a triple silver or a golder joins in the silvers as a sort of pace-person. In both ways (concurrent and overlapping) can help those who have commissions, or looking for commissions, to manage multiple projects with defined deadlines.

    My concern, though, is for those poor kids that Robbie keeps sending down the guild mines for the silver and gold required to forge those compasses. Diamond himself has amassed quite some body count We should map those guild mines


    As for retirement - I'm still a few years off that for now but from what I hear it can become rather frantic for a while. There are plenty of 'trunked' projects that need to be finished as well as adjusting to the "well now you're retired you have time to..." stuff.

    Two months is a pretty good time to produce an award winning map. Time flies by so quickly sometimes, you don't even remember to check out the challenge until one week from deadline, and by then all the already submitted maps are too good to compete against.
