Welcome to the ManiaExchange Monthly Track Contest (MTC), December 2015.
In the MTC your task is to build a track on a given theme (see below). Later on, all of the entered tracks will be rated and a winner will be found.
Theme of the Month: Double Five The building area is limited to two five blocks wide rows, which are separated by a gap of one block width.
Two building areas of 5*[full map length] separated by a 1*[full map length] gap. (e.g. 5*32 in Canyon)
You have to cross the gap in the middle at least twice. (Doesn't matter if in the air or on the ground)
You can build terraforming wherever you want
Clips/connectors of blocks are allowed to reach outside the building area (e.g. white/red connectors that show in the editor for Canyon GP road)
Signs are excluded from the building area restriction, i.e. you can place signs anywhere.
update: Scenery must be build inside the two 5*x building areas, too. (except for terraforming)
update: 64x64 basemap is allowed.
Deadline All tracks should be submitted before the end of 20, December 2015 PDT.

How to submit
To enter a track, simply upload it and post a link to your submission in the submission thread.
You can update your map within the deadline as many times as you want.
Judging We'll use the well known public judging system:
Everyone is allowed to judge, even players who submitted a map (give your own map a 10)
Every map will be judged with marks from 1 (bad) to 10 (good).
Note that you have to judge a stage entirely, you cannot judge only half of it.
More details will appear after submission ends
Good luck, and as always: If you have any questions, please ask
