Additional thanks to Onetruepurple and Primal for additional testing!

Screenshots looks great... :) 
NICE! 
I would love to see another Qonquer jam again! 
 
Nice! 
Good Looking Screenshot 
Good work, DaZ 
Awesome Work 
All excellent in their own way. This theme has brought out some fantastic unique settings and atmospheres. Here's the ones I've given at least a few rounds of play so far.

Scampie's feels like you're playing a slick Unreal map, and some very cool gameplay ideas. I like the prison arena, it's fun as shit.

Skacky's looks mindblowing. The high res textures are beautiful, and there's lovely vertical architecture. I Liked the feeling of progression, as areas unlock, and how clear it was which spawn pads were active.

WarrenM even with some plain areas, it has some of the best architecture i've seen in quake. If I actually made maps I'd probably quit.

Hypnos and FifthElephant both nailed the atmosphere. Both really cool settings that it was enjoyable to wander round 
Bravo 
super excited to play all of these :)
Just did 10 rounds on skacky's - couldn't resist the looks - and had a lot of fun with it. 
 
mirrored to https://www.quaddicted.com/filebase/func_mapjam5.zip because it should be named that way, you OCD-hater. 
Warren Should Vis His Map Next Time 
real bugger on slow rigs.
Such nice maps, skackys is best. 
Fuuuck 
just realized, upon loading my map in the jam5 directory, than my config in Qonquer had a low gamma setting for some goddamn reason and I lit my map that way... so... uh... sorry that it's kind of dark...

Guess I should've had someone else test for me :D

gamma 0.65 is what I had it on, if you'd like to see it at the brightness I lit it at. It's not too terrible on the inside areas, but the exterior is no where near bright and cheery enough. 
 
(just be sure to set it back before loading skacky's map, becuase that gets super blown out with low gamma) 
Holy Crap Skacky 
coly hrap.
Had a glimpse at yours while derping the dazzers, and yes, what a beautyful floating sky castle, i love the textures you choosed, i adore the light you gave em, the brushwork surrounding this is lovely executed, all blends in lovely with the lighting.
Totally.
I dont know what to praise more in the looks,
im totally in vain on this one!

Who cares about gameplay after this?
Okok, i admit, Ijeds is my fav, play that map! 
Arenas Look Great 
plus I have never tried Qonquer I dont think, so this should be a nice diversion when I have a bit more time in the upcoming days.

Thanks guys. 
Before This Gets Old 
Great map Hypnos, that lovely detail and execution for a 1st map is in my mind unrivaled by now!
(Unless you are Sock).
I mean as a first released map this one stands out.
Yep.
Map more! 
Thanks Everyone 
Thanks to all the mappers, Daz for organizing the jam and of course WarrenM for the Qonquer mod. Good work, great maps and fun gameplay. 
 
"Warren Should Vis His Map Next Time "

I tried! VIS wouldn't do a fastvis because the map was too complex and anything above that would never finish.
