Updates - By cold on October 29th, 2009

As you may have heard, over the past month, we have been running a mapping contest for Deathrun. That mapping contest will be coming to a close in just 2 days (Nov. 1 at 12:00 AM) and the judging will begin. The submissions we have so far are looking great and I hope to see a few more before the contest closes. As mentioned, the prizes that we decided on are as follows:

  • First Place: A Steam game with a value of $50 or less
  • Second Place: An amazon.com gift card worth $25
  • Third Place: Free VIP, or equiv. in dough if you already have vip, worth $15

I have received a few questions about how we will handle all the maps that are submitted. Basically, the top 3 maps will be awarded prizes and any map we deem worthy will be added to the server. For all the information on the current contest please see the official forum post.

In other news, I have recently been developing a bot, cleverly named SassBot, which uses Steam as its medium. Currently SassBot’s only major feature to regular players is that he allows you to talk on web chat without having to use the site. If you’re interested in using Sassbot simply add him and when he accepts (automatic) he will introduce himself and get you started.

Finally, Halloween is upon us and to get into the spirit the site and Lobby have been spruced up with the always appropriate pumpkin. In addition, the Lobby has received spooky and fun Halloween music.

Enjoy!

Go to the Sassilization lobby (in garrysmod) at the IP Lobby.Sassilization.com:27015
Fill out the username and password when you are prompted, then come back here to sassilization.com, and look in the upper right corner at UserCP. Click on it and fill it in with the same information you used in the Lobby.

The Sassbot is really neat and i like the commands.
It can be very useful if you don’t want to join the sass servers if you just want to chat. Also the steamid cmd is VERY useful. No more going in-game to get it. Now you can simply just type a cmd. Great job Sassilization
