MTC December 2022 - Winter Feel  




Welcome to the MTC (Monthly Track Contest) for December 2022!
The MTC is a track building contest hosted by TrackmaniaExchange which challenges you to build a map with a specific theme.
There are no prerequisites or qualification requirements to enter, just continue reading the theme below, hop in your editor, and submit a track before the deadline!

(brb)Deadline:
Entries must be submitted to the MTC mappack before 01/01/2023 23h59.
Following the deadline, the Host will close the mappack for submissions. At that point, all maps in the mappack are considered valid entries. If you map is sent in less than 24h after the deadline, 5 pts per day will be retired in the total of the judge points

- The mappack will be featured at the main page after the deadline!

:wait: Rules
- One entry is allowed per user. Multi-author maps count as the single entry for all authors involved.
- “MTC” must be present in the track name as it appears on TMX.
- All entries must be built using the latest version of the game.
- All entries must be built specifically for this MTC.
- Blockmixing, Offgrid mapping, and Embedded Items are allowed.
- Texture mods are allowed.
- Royal tracks are not allowed.

:done: Judging System
All entries will be graded by a panel of judges who will be studying each map based on the following criteria:

Theme (20 pts): How well does the track fit the theme? How creatively did you implement the theme’s requirements?
Design/Route (10 pts): Flow, smoothness, layout, speed, transitions, difficulty. The “Feel” of the track.
Details/Polish (10 pts): Signage, Scenery, Mediatracker. Does the track feel like it has the finishing touches?
Fun Factor (10 pts): Is the track fun to the judge? Some extra points can be given here.

Good luck! Please ask any questions in this thread or in discord, otherwise get to building!

Rule about MTC in title  
Does the map in-game have to have MTC in the title or is it enough that it is only on TMX?

Submitting a map  
The rules state that a map has to be uploaded to the mappack, but I asked in the ManiaExchange Discord and got told that I can also post the map in the MTC thread, is this true?
I did also try to submit my map, but it said 'this map already exists' I'm assuming because I had uploaded it seperately before. Is it possible to add my map to the mappack?
 
Hello psyniac.

Map have been added manually don't worry.

As part of our initiative to get the MTC rolling again, we've got the December results ready for you!

THE RESULTS


Somehow, despite everything, we've actually got two winners here!

First up is   pjw, who gives us the solidly technical map "Go With The Floe (mtc)". Matching the first place score is   Psyniac with their candy themed ice course "MTC - Sugar Mountains". Sorry, but the two of you will just have to share the gold! :gold:

As if that wasn't enough, the same thing happened for third place as well!

One of our two mappers is   asyr.nj, who presents us with the present-themed map "MTC - A Donation". The other is   inv4lid, giving us "MTC - Last Snow", which is a spiritual sequel to one of their earlier maps. We only have one bronze medal here, so maybe you can trade it between each other each week? :bronze:

1st place: "Go With The Floe (mtc) by   pjw - 120/150 pts
1st place: "MTC - Sugar Mountains by   Psyniac - 120/150 pts
3rd place: "MTC - A Donation by   asyr.nj - 115.5/150 pts
3rd place: "MTC - Last Snow by   inv4lid - 115.5/150 pts

Here are the placements:
