A contest which utilizes the newest update in an amazing way. For this one, it would be BG - Track since it is the newest update (on the writing of this message). The entries could be anything from pixel-art to chain reactions to player courses or anything! To prevent stealing of ideas, the entries would need to be PMed to a chosen Judge, once the contest will not accept anymore entries (does not necessarily mean finished judging) the entries will be shown to the public. The entry would be judged on: Utilizes the update in a new way - 40% Cleanliness - 15% Complexity - 15% Shows the potential of the update - 30% If you have any questions feel free to ask. This follows the basic contest rules, except all entries will be PMed to me instead of posted here, so nobody steals any ideas. Also, there will be one week of time before this is closed in the event of no entries, as opposed to 5 days, to give you time to make the uploads. After the closing of the contest, I will post the entries. [copy-pasted part] Prizes: 1st:1,500 DB 3 Karma Winner Badge 2nd:750 DB 2 Karma 3rd:225 DB 1 Karma Participation:1 Karma [/copy-pasted part] The special award is... Well, I'll let the other staff come up with that one. I'm not really one for prizes. Feel free to modify them to your heart's content.
That's a wrap! Please don't get mad if I messed it up. It's my first contest approval. EDIT: Prizes changed to match normal prizes. A contest of this stature deserves at least the norm. ~PhoenixSorry, I figured I'd lower them a few DBs, since this isn't really a special contest, more of a once-a-PG-Update contest. Still, I guess it could give the forum economy a boost... |

The special award is determined by the judges when judging. I gave 100 Db's to the special award winners previous times. Also, they will get the new badge.

Nobody has sent me an entry yet... Still, it takes time to make uploads. Should I add something to the news fader?

You have to make a new original work that uses the ability of BG-Track.
For example, a new matrix. Oh, crap!~

Well, you can't really blame the contest for this one... It was the update that got us.

I have an entry by liamuk! The contest has officially begun in earnest!
Of course, I'll make an exception if someone is working on something that will take longer...

I dont think there are any entries, so it might as well be closed and the glass contest opened.

Yes, they get first prize, including winner badge. No-one gets the S. Award this time.
