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 :)

@jammer?
are you for real?
Breakpoint orgs did it 10 years ago. Revision orgs do it too...
but i agree it's a good routine to have it recorded before the combo.

What's your problem, m8? :) I haven't attended those parties but I attended recent Riverwash thus I speak about it only. Comment is still valid, considering it's not a regular routine at X and, moreover, nobody has mentioned it earlier in this thread.

i think a seperate compo for people who live a long way off would be fair.

also a real paint compo, where a fave c64 pic is chosen and all entrants must paint the best real pic they can!!
that would be awesome and then one of the compo winners would receive the paintings as a prize!!

I like X because it's C64 exclusive and it's the Olympics for C64 demos so to say. The X2014 organization was spot on and simple, from a visitor perspective at least. Even the catering was good.

Graphics-, Music- and Demo-compo. Doesn't have to be more complicated than that.

Perhaps give the one-file demo guys some recognition; not everyone can muster a disk side or more. These could still be part of the main demo competition but tagged differently. A one-filer can get a rank in the overall demo compo and a rank as a one-filer.

The real challenge then is to make a one-filer that can beat the multi-filers and get two trophies :-)

We have a REU demo on top of the one file demos - So yes it would be hard to make more true categories... it is a fantastic demo on top of that list... but is it a a better demo than one inside true c64... so I also think we should just stay with the compo as it is maybe after all. When boundries are this blurry there is no way you could have hw for all and working for all different stuffs I guess?

It is very cool to be total true also. c64 stock... run it or leave it!

Prerecording demos sucks. I know it's practical but then why not just make videos?

Best C64 demo video compo?
