Again originated in the Doom community:
The 32in24 projects. The idea is that one mapper creates a basic layout (for a DM map) with gameplay (item placement), then another takes over and details the map. Each one has 12 hours to complete his job, so in the end there are (theoretically) 32 new maps, given there are enough participants, after one day. Now, of course it would have to be a little different with Quake. I'd say each mapper had 24 hours for his part, and no fixed amount of maps. From the Doomworld thread: Layout Rules: [...] - Create a basic layout, with direct focus on gameplay. Disregard detail almost completely. - Must place items, including Player 1 start, At least 8 DM starts, and weapons. Must also include exit. DO NOT FLAG ITEMS MULTIPLAYER. Detailer Rules: [...] - Call a map in the 32in24 thread (when calling, check to see if anyone else is working on the map before you start) - Try to preserve gameplay as faithfully as possible; consult layout mapper if you want to make changes to layout/items - Build outwards whenever possible, especially in small areas. - Impassible lines are your friends! We don't like bumping into stuff :( - Make the map look damn sexy http://www.doomworld.com/vb/wads-mods/41358-32in24-five-9-16-07-testing/ Add me, bitches!
My Steam ID is apparently this: ><((((�> Mr Fribbles OH STOP YOUR WHINGING, JUST COPY AND PASTE, CTRL+C, CTRL+V! Admit it - you like the fish. FrickaC already made a game like this (which is awesome btw) but check this out:

Which reminds me that I should watch the Red Dwarf episodes I haven't seen yet. :D reminds me i made a couple of fake isometric quake screenshots a few years ago, but they were lost in a hard drive crash.
This really should be the name of the Steam community group:
FUNC_GROUP Come on, its perfect! I am assuming everyone will accept the inevitable and rename the group. Upper case or lower case though?
func_group FUNC_GROUP vote! I created the group. I went with all lower case:
func_group this is how it is displayed in the Q3 entities.def file, and it looks "more right" (probably because I've always seen it written like that inside Radiant). Who wants invites? Should I just start inviting everyone inside the current terrafusion group? Looks like some sort of kick ass hip-hop ensemble
which is the best argument for sticking with lower case :P actually we could have renamed terrafusion to func_group w/o creating a mess with two groups now... sigh
Fair enough, I guess I just assumed you would be unable to rename a group once it was created.
I'm actually looking at the admin panel now for func_group and I see no way to rename the group, so perhaps my initial assumption was right. It hardly matters either way... there was only 20 people in the group. I sent invites out to all members of the #tf group. All they have to do is click accept. Some minor short-term inconvenience is a small price to pay for the undeniable awesomeness of having a superior (dare I say perfect) name for the group, rather than some old throwback-bordering-on-irrelevant name that we cling to primarily out of habit. Say what you want, names are important, damn it! Vondur was waiting in the frozen darkness even as the gods made the earth.
func_group, then? Hmm, I should probably join.
