With the announcement of the New Dark 10 Year Anniversary Contest, I took the initiative to start a thread (For the first time) to (hopefully) facilitate a place where authors both brand new and old can reach out if they so choose.
It often seems like authors (generally) choose to work solo on their missions whether it be for a contest or other-wise and that's fine if that's what they choose/prefer. But, I think it would be a cool idea for Authors to Cooperate/team-up for this contest.
As stated in the contest thread, There are no limitations this time around and nothing prohibiting multiple people from working on the same contest entry.
I think this would be a great opportunity, Especially for newbies (like myself) who can get pretty over-whelmed or fall into feature-creep if we are not careful.
I also believe this to be a better way of putting yourself out there for other authors to see rather than hopping into the DromEd discord and spamming/begging Skacky in the DM's asking for his help.

Feel free to leave your thoughts on the idea in this thread. Let me know if I'm a genius or a complete fool and should go rot in the bear pits.
If you'd like to offer to Co-Author a mission or if you want to work on a contest entry and don't mind having someone Co-Author, Please leave your preferred contact info below.
Don't forget to leave any broad details (or lack of) for what you are seeking.

Let me remind you that there are a large number of abandoned cards that have been waiting for many years for someone to use them.
As Haplo's experience has shown, sometimes using someone else's bases gives better results than creating from scratch.
The most interesting abandoned maps that I know: CoSaS 3 (3 maps and tons of models), Sliptip's Mages (2 maps with fantastic scripts) and Dario's Faceless (at least one large map, as well as unique AI skins and ambients). Also, I have a reworked finished Running Interference (the 1st T2 map) that I've been working on for my Thief High Poly Mod. This is great for the contest.
I have long thought about working with Goddess team, but I have 9 active maps, so I never offered my services.

Good idea here. Team and cooperative missions are more than welcome for the contest.
I should add though, all entries need to be brand new missions. No use of abandoned or pre-existing terrain is allowed.
