Quake 2 Cafe' Mapping Contest #4 2006- Results are in!

[Whirlingdervish]

The Quake 2 Cafe' is a site dedicated to making new maps for Quake 2..
We held a contest that started earlier this year to make some new DM maps
and had a decent group of mappers sign up.
We got 8 completed ones which you can download in a map pack at this site:

You can check out the maps on this board:

The big winner was a mapper by the name of Jester, who many consider to be one of
the best all around mappers for Quake 2 in the world.
Heres a link to the Winning Map screenshots...
