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 :) |

Quoting ZeSmasherok serious: multiple-stage compo!...
so you code and you do an entry for the intro/4k/demo/whatever compo, then you paint a bitmap and you enter the gfx compo and finally you compose and you enter the sid compo. make the average of all votes in these categories and the best wins. some sort of triathlon just to understand.
4k intro/4k graphics/4k SID.
Maximum 30 seconds decrunch time for the graphics section, otherwise some idiot's likely to go off and IDK photon map a mandelbox or something. |

Good to see a lot of suggestions and responses!
Lemme start with a couple of things we will NOT do:
- Ban huge co-op demos.
- Non-stock c64 entries (with 2sid as maybe the only exception).
- Accept remote entries.
That said, looking at all your replies, I'd say it's definite yes to the PETSCII compo for sure.
2sid could be nice (if not toooo many entries), but dunno yet if we have the hw for it (and then there's the 6581x2, 8580x2, 6581+8580, arrgh;)
Then the size-compo, and well, that would double the amount of compos we already have. Not sure yet if it'll all fit the schedule yet.
Would you mind if the compo lasted from 20:00 till 01:00 with prize ceremony at 02:00? (obviously with some super necessary breaks;) |

you could schedule the compos for friday evening, so ppl will actually have time to get drunk.
also automatic disqualification for everyone who goes to bed before 4am! |

Here's an idea: let's have so many compo categories there will be only one entry in each. Everybody wins! |
