little update, I got from comments from WC3Net forums:

Now a little update, to the rulez, based upon some comments from WC3Net forums.

-----------------
Rule # uhh...12: You can NOT release your entry until the closing of the contest submission period. After that as soon as all the entries are in, you can go ahead and publish your map wherever. But u can go ahead and play on B-NET at any time though.

As for Beta versions, sure u can send it in, but we`ll assume that it`s a finished polished product, so u will loose points there.

And to determine If this is RPG or not, (still not sure how)...I think it`ll be like:
1-No direct BnD elements (no base and stuff)
2-Main Concept: Go around, kill stuff, get experience
3-Must have some sorta quest(not mindlessly walking around and killing stuff)
4-Storyline

So what are you guys waiting for? Participate in their contest and show your skills! in there: http://www.scnnetwork.com

Can we enter the same map we put into this contest into the wc3campaigns one?

I think I'll enter the map I'm working on, it should be complete by then.

I like the contest. Also, I'll advertise (although my site isnt launched or popular yet) it on my site, so what do I put?

Ok, the map I'm working on... IS an rpg so to speak... but it doesn't exactly meet the rules perfectly. Cookie, or whomever, please email [email protected] so that I might reveal more about its 'uniqueness'.

Heya Guys a little update, we ARE opening this contest with all the info, details and submission forms on next Monday.

>>Nostra, our defenition of RPG is not set in stone, but, the map must be a multiplayer adventure map, which usualy means it`s n RPG map.
