compo rules: "one entry for person or group"...
doing coding for 2 demos, one for your group and one as single entry, allowed or not allowed? |

it states
"One entry per person or group, per compo"
lets break this down
I see an "or" statement here ;)
thus meaning you can release and your group can release..
you group or
0 0 0
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 1 (the case I was looking for)
lets expand this statement further
for each compo
you can release an entry separately from your
group, thus meaning group can release aswell ;)
that would be shit load of releases this year \o/ can we handle it ?
that is how I interpret it 8)=) |

so the "or" is really an "OR" and not a "XOR"? :)
I interpret it the same way, thanks ZeBob! |

zesmasher, bob got it right :)
the rule is there to avoid that one musician enters multiple tunes in the music compo. it's all about common sense and levelling the playing field.
that said, looking forward to your 2 demos :) |

Compo rules: "All entries or parts of it may not have been released prior to the competitions"
I'm going to assume this means entire demo parts or intros. Reusing, for example, one of my old 1x1 fonts should be okay, right? |

compyx, yes no worry. you can also use the CBM font without any risks of being excluded :)

Ah, sweet, figured as much.
Well, better to be anal about it than to have my entry denied, that would seriously grind my gears ;) |

Sometimes I'm a little focused (no pun intended) on details, but I guess every advantage has its disadvantage ;)
Right, I'm off changing rasterbar colors in my old parts, Visual Delight 3 coming up... |

@Bob, some things should still be a bit of a surprise, but I will tell you one thing: I'd be a bit disappointed if we get less demos than at X14 :)
If all rumours become truth, we're in for a loooooong demo compo :) |

so, in that case you have to expand the prize zone... not just top 3 will on podium, but top 10 for each category :) |

heh, no way, that would cause serious prize-inflation ;)
but, we will share full results with all at the party, not just the top3 like last time. |

Quoting FranticI plan to release a demo that breaks the "longest demo duration" record.
What's the current record anyway? 1338 Eart Hour Tool comes to mind, even though it is a tool. |

This is not the freshest idea, but lets do the ultimate one-file demo. Lets allocate a block per contributer to do what they wish.
If we allocate 16 kb of memory for graphics and data, that will leave 192 blocks of memory for demoparts. That means 192 individual 256 byte demos.
It is half a year until the X 2016. 1 part per day for one person, or 1 day for 192 contributors. What say you?
Why should this be done? Because it'll be interesting to submit the demo to CSDB with full credits :) |

Oswald, exactly! Brilliant isn't it. We could also do a houndred precalc 4x4 charmode effects, they never get boring. |

I hope noone seriously thinks that gfxmode alone makes a demo, or an effect :) hires or even charmode can be spectacular, or both be fugly. |

But what does scrolling 1 pixel per frame even mean in 4x4? Does it take one second per screen, or four? And is it still 4x4 if each quadrant can contain any one of the 30 pure colours you can get by using PAL chroma blending on colours of equal luma? |
