Actually he hasn't left it; he put my name in the entries just yesterday.

Eh?

It's there.
You posted it as an attachment, so I couldn't get the IMG tag link since there was none.

Unfortunatly I have just recently started college so I haven't had very much time to work on my tower, I have one done though. But it is not entirely finished and there are small things that would need fixing to be able to put it into a real map, but here it is anyways. I'll possibly get a screenshot up later tonight if I have time.

Hey! Has anyone noticed? The deadline is tomorrow.
Hope everyone's working on those towers....

And if you're not....

Exact Time of Deadline?

I'm hoping and assuming that you will give us a couple of hours notice before the submissions are to be closed.

 

[Ghan]

Warning! Danger! Attention all Tower Contest entrants! You submissions are due!

In a very small amount of time, too.

You have until 9:30 P.M. GMT to get your entries in to this thread.
That comes out to about 1.5 hours from now. So, pack them up, put a bow around the box and deliver them, please.

Cathode Tower and Anode Tower​

The Cathode Tower imparts a negative charge on a unit and the Anode Tower imparts a positive charge. If a positively charged unit and a negatively charged unit are close enough to each other, they are attracted to each other and collide, stunning them both.

Update: version 1.01 swapped Anode's and Cathode's charges per Ghan_04's comment below.

Excellent. Looks interesting. Though, you have them backwards. Anodes are positive and cathodes are negative.

Are you serious? I did a tiny bit of research so I thought I probably had it right, but I always get confused with this type of stuff. Here's what my handheld dictionary says:

anode 1. the electrode by which current enters an electrolytic cell. 2. the negative terminal of a battery. 3. the positive electrode of an electron tube.

cathode 1. the negative electrode of an electrolytic cell. 2. the positive terminal of a battery. 3. the negative electrode of an electron tube.

Reading that one more time... An Anode would draw electrons away from an object, thereby causing the object to have a net positive charge, and vice versa for a cathode. Is that right?

Gah, I do have it backwards, don't I.

Edit: I updated my map to version 1.01.

And....

The contest is over!
