Event id #3060 : Plain PETSCII Graphics Competition 2021

Fullscreen, baby!

Not gonna make many restrictions - there are so many restrictions IRL, art should remain as free as possible

BUT: As in former compos, anything using sprites, ECM, animation, other hankypanky will be moved to a sub category ("Mixed"). And I reserve the right to disqualify poorly-wired pr0n and other troll stuff, e.g. 8x8 gotta be reeeaaalllyyy good to be not disaqualified.

So basically pretty much the same as 4(! time's passing...) yrs ago

More info about to follow asap.

Cheers
TheRyk

PS: Be aware it's not started yet, so any uploads before Sat 8th are also not competing

As Joe oneliner-ed this week:

CSDb, not scene, but the best place for scene-cmps

OF COURSE people without a CSDb account (people keep telling me how hard such a thing is to get nowadays) can compete. Just email me your stuff to ryker[ÄT]freenet.de by May 22nd. You can also contact me when you need help with doing an executable.

Anyone WITH an account of course normally uploads their entries here themselves.

Looking 4wd to your entries,
I hereby declare this bazaar open, now!

Cheers
Ryk

Cool start yesterday and today, competitors!

Just btw: Old rule 3 entries per competitor and category (Graphics/Wild) is applied again, i.e. when you hand in more than 3 entries, you decide which one is in or out of compo. If you don't do that by end of compo, the oldest entry (of 4 for example) will be set "out".

Keep em coming!
Cheers
Ryk

PS: Just remembered and checked, 2017 amount was ltd to only 2 entries per competitor and category, but as 3's already announced, 3 shall be the number in 2021

great entries in the first days!

Just BTW voting is gonna be done externally with the same old voting disk code I blotched together some 8 years ago. Self-votes are elmininated mathematically.

This is not to discourage voting on CSDb, just for clarification.

More than one more week to go!

Yepp, indeed it seems that the PETSCII trade has evolved even further. 1980s' kids wouldn't have believed their eyes :)

Voting disk is done (after some days of ripping),
voting's open till Sun 6th of June 2021, 23:59:59 CEST.

Sorry, for not modifying that old code, but have been busy enough ripping.

Competitors:
- I triple-checked everything, but please check again if $d020 $d021 $d018 (lower/uppercase)
are set as in your released executable (screenshot is irrelevant).
- Be aware you are also invited to vote, because:
- Self-votings will be cleared from the calculation automatically, so it does not matter how
you vote for own entries.

Voters:
- Really read these two text screens before and after the voting.
- If your real hardware CRT monitor or emulator doesn't display enough top border, it says
TOP  FI   GO   SO   OH   PIC NUMBER
PIC   NE   OD   SO   NO  00? OF 064

-> Default at start is "GOOD" move joystick #2 LFT for better or RGT for worse vote.

After all the voting is done...
- Use [2]/[1] to revise (don't be irritated to see the initial screen again, SPACE)
- Once you pressed [Q] file "VOTING" is saved. There's no scratch routine on purpose.
- If all went well, there should be a proper reset and a non-blinking disk drive LED
and 229 instead of 230 blocks free containing the file "VOTING" somewhere.

Most important:
- Mail your voting disk image (as .d64) or just the file "voting" (as .prg) to
ryker[ÄT]freenet.de by 6th of June 2021.
- As voting is totally public, I need your CSDb or Forum64 handle.
- It is possible (but a little lame) to vote for Main or WiLD compo only,
but it would be cool if you quickly fill out the following and paste it in your
email:

A. My personal top 5 entries of main competition (give 5 ENTRY NO.s between 1 and 64)
================================================================================ 
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

<- These 5 entries receive some additional value in voting system depending on your ranking
   If you leave them empty or do not send them, no entry will get this bonus value by you.

B. My rating for the 5 WiLD compo entries (give each of the 5 entries 1,2,3,4 or 5 points)
================================================================================ 

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

No zeroes, no half points, no hankypanky will be accepted.
For voting help, here's a list of the WiLD entries again

 1	Cloud Face			
 2	Decompress Extended !!!<-EDIT wrongly got "03" instead of "02" on disk!!!		
 3	Don't Do It, Giger!							
 4	Groobot				
 5	Hokuto no Ken-Ken-Ken-ken-ken-ken-...-...-...				


Have fun!
Ryk
