That sounds neat right?!?!
(My last idea was run over..... )
Unfortunately, if you search for the map, the keywords are "too common" to actually find it
But this is the release thread of the project I was talking about; it has also a list of all the relevant milestones in the development:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3964
It was totally fun building this collaboratively and seeing it proliferate into something almost uncontrollable. Only the finishing touches dragged the release because I insisted that somebody else than me would do it because of lack of experience and the original community thought. I probably should've done it from the get-go it was considered. Well, you learn from mistakes!

This brings me to my idea: How about someone creates a few rooms or maybe even the whole floorplan and then the mappers are asked to freely expand on it or just decorate it in their visionary theme?
I don't like the idea of having a mapping template, too limitative and might prove to be annoying to fix bugs in the end.
But if it was somehow "drawn" instead through a few images the kind of "shape" we had to start from (from papercoffee perhaps), that would be fine by me.
This is even better, it leaves more freedom. And when papercoffe indeed already has something like this in store, this might work out.
However, I don't want to get too deep in this discussion. Even though I am interested in the development of this mapping contest, I rather spend my time finishing my own SP thing which has already been too damn long in the working..
