Title: Next contest?
Post by: moiledzep on February 24, 2004, 01:03:43 PM: I'm impatient about the next context, because this will be my first one. I wish it will be soon, I know it depends of Alex, The Master of Charas-Project. Alex, where are You? And when do you think will be the next? :bend:

Post by: Alex on February 24, 2004, 01:29:45 PM: Shortly, i guess...
Maybe during March i'll call it;)
Title: ok
Post by: moiledzep on February 24, 2004, 01:51:12 PM: Ok, Alex, thanks very much, xe've got an idea now.
Title:
Post by: smokey_locs2002 on March 04, 2004, 12:58:21 PM: Alex it's march..........CONTEST.
Title:
Post by: Alex on March 04, 2004, 01:20:30 PM: Ok, one idea.
I was thinking about the 3rd contest, and... why not pushing on areas which need resources?

I mean: the new contest may have 3 areas: chara, face and battle resources. For each area every users can post amx 3 resources (9 max in total, so).

Moreover, the resources may be created just for these specific areas:
Chara generator: fighter-soldiers, chara-little, monsters, tall-monsters
Face generator: front, roco, elvis
Battlechar: medium (the only one present at this stage).

Maybe this will make the contest more difficult, but also can push users in creating resources for the almost forgotten areas. But those areas are also the most artistic ones, where a spriter can really show his value.

What do you think?

Title:
Post by: Alex on March 07, 2004, 09:08:36 AM: Yes.
I'll officially call it within one ore two weeks but yes.

Deadline will probably be set on 30 April ;)
Title:
Post by: Kijuki_Magazaki on March 07, 2004, 09:11:24 AM: Yes! Ok thx alex all I needed to know ;)
Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 07, 2004, 09:20:05 AM: this time I am going to win with the battlechars.
so sairak, please don't enter the competition :D
Title:
Post by: Kijuki_Magazaki on March 07, 2004, 05:36:25 PM: I'll enter in all of them lol
Title:
Post by: SaiKar on March 07, 2004, 05:43:14 PM: It is Sai'Kar to you. ;)

And I would be more then pleased if someone entered that battle character contest other then myself, mainly because people have been bugging ME to update it and I am too busy with other stuff these days.

Post by: GaryCXJk on March 07, 2004, 06:27:12 PM: W00T!!! ANOTHER JOB FOR ME AS LOGO CREATOR!!!

EDIT: I was thinking, there can be an extra price, the connection prize. If you manage to make a recource for all three generators which connects with each other (three resources with the same hairstyle), you can get this prize.
Title:
Post by: Alex on March 08, 2004, 08:45:07 AM: Something like posting a "John Smith" chara, face and battlechar resources and then make a prize for "John Smith" as a global character?

Uhm, this can be interesting.
But we should be sure at least 3-4 users will create resources for this "connection prize", to make sense.
Is there someone that think to partecipate for this too?

About the logo, will wait to see yor next idea, Gary! ;)

And another thing: Judgement!
Who will be judge, this time?
Just remember that judges cannot partecipate too.
Title:
Post by: GaryCXJk on March 08, 2004, 10:50:00 AM: This time, let's make it even special. I'm not going to be a judge or participant, but instead, I'll be a freelance writer, maybe just an article about the contest, maybe an article for the new magazine.

What's next?
Title:
Post by: GaryCXJk on March 08, 2004, 12:21:29 PM: Hehehe, quicky.

It's only 100 kb (!)
Title:
Post by: Kijuki_Magazaki on March 08, 2004, 01:52:49 PM: LoL Connection? LoL I started this connection already lol. Well soon there will be plenty Megaman X resources *laughs* What was that for? lol. Anyhow Cool quickie logo Gary lol.
Title:
Post by: Alex on March 08, 2004, 04:56:15 PM: Geez, cool quick logo Gary!!!
Title:
Post by: SaiKar on March 08, 2004, 06:14:29 PM: Great concept for a logo, Gary! You might want to slow it down a bit though. It is pretty hard to read it at that speed.
Title:
Post by: GaryCXJk on March 09, 2004, 10:53:54 AM: Well, I'm planning on using another flashfile instead. I'm making three animations, which will show up randomly.
Title:
Post by: Kijuki_Magazaki on March 09, 2004, 10:31:29 PM: You are going to open another thread for the resources entering right Alex?
Title:
Post by: Alex on March 09, 2004, 11:02:22 PM: Sure, but i'll open it only after the contest's opening
Title:
Post by: Kijuki_Magazaki on March 09, 2004, 11:34:48 PM: Oh I know just wanted to make sure. :D
Title:
Post by: SaiKar on March 10, 2004, 03:13:52 AM: I have a question... how do we submit things to the contest? Do we choose one specific thing to submit, or do you just look at all of our resources in a given field?

I am entering the b-character one... so does that mean that ALL of my b-character resources are being judged, or just one specific one that I choose?
Title:
Post by: Alex on March 10, 2004, 11:04:24 AM: All the resources you'll send (if you'll enter only for bchar, max 3).
A thread for posting your contest's resources will be opened, you'll be able to post new or already uploaded resources, they just need to be created by you.

The better thing to understand the way judgements will be done is looking at past contest's judgements:

Title:
Post by: SaiKar on March 10, 2004, 03:19:05 PM: Hmm, it looks like you people are pretty tough. I will have to clean up some of my resources for the contest.

But I understand how it works now. Thanks!
Title:
Post by: moiledzep on March 15, 2004, 10:16:07 PM: I'm not sure to participate for now, but I'll try to take the time for making contests stuffs, I'll try...
But I'm impatient to see new talents!!!
