FC mission contest??
I was thinking about the possibility of holding an FC mission contest. It would be open to the general community and it could be only one mission (or small set considering the size missions tend to be) and those interested would have a set amount of time to complete it (ie missions must be released/sent in to the CIC by a certain date). Then there would be a community poll on the best. Also some rules would be placed on the mission (or perhaps short set of missions) like limits on complexity or a set theme.
Mainly this would help build a little more interest in FC. So first off I want to know whether even the current FC modders would be interested in spending a little time to build a mission for the contest (perhaps as a change of pace from their current campaigns). Then again, this may should probably wait until turrets can at least function or there is better fighter AI.
Any thoughts or is this an idea that doesn't really work for the Wing Commander series?
PS: This idea was inspired by the Thief fan community's FM contests.
