24-Hour Custom Story Challenge

Inspired by the Teamnesia project currently going on, but on a much more compact scale.

So what's going on here? Pretty much, Russ Money and I came up with the idea to make a challenge giving the creators only 24 hours to make a custom story. That's right, just 24 hours. We want to get a few custom story creators in on this little challenge to see what kind of work they can dish out in such a short amount of time.

The maps will all be linked together in a hub (again inspired by the Teamnesia project) so that when it is all finished they all can be played from just one custom story download. Simple as that!

What are the rules? The rules are quite standard really. You have 24 hours starting from scratch to complete a custom story in that time. That time includes sleeping, eating, social life, everything - because of that you have been given a one week window to make some time for this little project of hardcore righteousness.

Technicals:
Spoiler below!
Use only messages, no notes.

What I'm defining as a message is the pop-up text while the player is playing.
Normally in your .lang file those messages look like this:

<CATEGORY Name="Messages">
<Entry Name="Unique_id">Text</Entry>
</CATEGORY>

Inside your HPL script, you would use a function as thus:

SetMessage("Messages", "Unique_id", 5);

Use as many as you like, just make sure they're in working order and have a very unique name!

Name your maps something that wouldn't be named by someone else's map - aka try to avoid naming your maps something like 001 but more of something like [insertnameofcustomstory]start01 or similiar. It helps!


Due Date: November 29th by Midnight EST



Current finished stories:

Acies
Palistov - Journey to Brennenburg
JMFStorm
devin413 - Scary Noises
Kman - Grave Robber's Nightmare
Obliviator27 - Sewers of Oblivion
Statyk - Hunter
Appjm
Vradcly - Tunnel Vision
Mikhail - Echoes of the Past

Good luck and happy creating!


Note: The completed custom story will be played on my livestream Sunday at 1am EST (That is Saturday night) if you lot would like to stop by - should be good times!

Sidenote: The 24-hour limit is based on scout's honor. As we can't truly monitor how long you took to make the custom story, we'll take your word it was only 24 hours. Be honest please!
