X2016 Competitions: Your Input Wanted!
The 28th of october is still far away but getting closer and closer. The organizers have been getting busy and are now well underway to get everything sorted out for another smashing X!
Since entry delivery and running the compos at X14 went quite smooth and voting is now done in realtime, we believe we may have room for 1 or 2 more (small/fun) c64 competitions. Like a PETSCII compo or a 4k compo, or maybe you guys have an idea?
Or perhaps you think the straightforward demo/music/gfx compos are enough.
Let us know :) |

How about a gaming compo? Using Vice netplay for people at home?
And how about live streaming of some of the compos? Perhaps with remote voting? |

Quoting BurglarGood to see a lot of suggestions and responses!
Lemme start with a couple of things we will NOT do:
...
- Accept remote entries.
Disregard my vote then, not going to manage the four figure airfare this year! |

Burglar, nobody was asking to ban co-op demos... Read with understanding, please <rolls_eyes>
Also, if you are worried about length/amount of entries, PETSCII will definately produce 10x more entries than 4k, guaranteed ;) Just saying... |

Enno, I have a fresh idea... a revolutionary demo concept, something completely unseen! Let's stop my usual boasting, just wait a few days and I'm gonna produce an example of what I have in mind... downvoters stay ready :) BRB |

Ì think PETSCII is part of graphics compo, 4k is part of demo compo just like onefile/4 discside demos. If you want to be a winner, save your 4k, team up and beat the champs. Or be satisfied with a lower ranking, a brilliant 4k will be acknowledged as a great achievement by the audience anyway. Same goes for a lovely PETSCII. A 2 sid compo will ruin the charm of a 1 sid compo.
A wild compo would be nice, though. Drunk party hacking is something different compared to years of preparation. |

First of all I'd stick to the same schedule as in X2014 which seemed to work out really well - except if more compos then why not put some (like music compo(s)) for the friday-night entertainment?
The price ceremony would be great highlight for the saturday night. The "hangover" feeling of the Sunday usually do take away some of the glory.. :-)
PETSCII would be great and I don't believe there would be too many as no remote entries accepted. On the other hand, 1 minute for an entry including loading time etc. should do it.
The compos at 2014 were the best organized compo-event I've ever experienced what comes to timetables & technical aspect so you only need "cosmetic" changes if anything at all (if more compos added). \o/ |

Agree. Flawless execution with the voting app and all. Felt like next century shit ;-) |

I like Ninja's suggestion ... extended demo compo (supercpu, reu, U1541 whatever). Just have the requirement that people bring their own hardware. Would be great. I thing the 'Treu Love' really paved the way for something new. We're talking about it in the group anyway :)
1k or 4k demos ... not really that interesting is it? Instead of limiting ourselves it would be more fun to expand on the platform - hence my support for Ninja's idea.
Pal, you forgot Bonzai on that coop ;)
