How about a contest that uses up all the space in in the x and y directions. z is up and down right? so none of that.

You can move in a direction in Ued until you hit a wall. :loool:

Sad that Fran-N-Brag seems to be sitting this one out. So a lot of votes were cast, and I'm wondering how many of those votes will turn into submissions :lol:

No, he meant a small subtractive cube hidden inside an additive pillar. Nobody can see or play it, but the skybox's there, inside the limit. :P
Exactly. A skybox can be as small as you want and fit inside a crate in the level or between two walls. As long as it can't be seen, nothing forces you to make a huge box miles outside the map.
You must construct additional pylons.

I already asked that, I think people might missed it.

I quote myself again:
So any suggestions when this event will be held? Are there any specific vacation times like school? (Spring break, autumn vacation, christmas etc? )
I have a partime job, not fulltime yet, but I do have to work everyday.

It would be cool to plan this ahead.
Otherwise, the staff must put up another poll with dates. People can then vote for a time that fits their schedule.
