Hello handsome people,
Since we have so many talented people on the forum and the tools are being updated right now, i was thinking maybe we could have some little contests.
And if moderators agree, they could handle the contests.
The possible categories may be the following:
- Best voice acting
- Best designer
- Best coder
- Best fan art
- Best short horror story writer
Rules and conditions would be decided only by the moderator that picks the category.
So what you say? Would you like to participate? Have any opinion/idea?
Short horror story is the one i would look at.

No problem, we just modify the categories.
How about
Best designer becomes
Best Level Designer ?
And maybe add
Best Modeler ?
I have actually been rolling around with, I would not say an idea, but rather a fantasy of a competition.
It would be a short mod(FC/IFC) competition centered around trying to see if any of us complainers could actually make a scary AAMFP ourself(es).
Therefore the rules for that fantasy competition would be something like this:
Felt I just had to share it since the thread was begging me for it, but in reality I am doubtful as to whether or not enough people would be up for a competition with these restrictions unless theres a really good prize, and all I got is a couple game keys.
EDIT: after reading chasers comment I decided to add a spoiler
The worse of this is that, instead me being the coolest at one thing, I'm okay-ish at pretty much all of them (except modelling and level designing, where I'm better) so I can't really choose one.
How about doing it with no AAMFP stuff: I haven't played it yet, (I will, don't worry) and I don't want to see the manpigs before I should...
How about all the ATDD stuff and custom stuff (Penumbra stuff included)
I'm in for the Level design contest.
Although the judges shouldn't only look at how it looks but also on how it performs.
I always try keeping a specific standard on my maps:
"60+ fps on highest settings."
(My personal testing rig: GTX 660 sli, i7 3770k, 16Gb ram)
I know my rig is very good so I also send a copy to my friends with a bit more casual
components so that I can assure that the maps play smooth and without glitches. For
everyone.
Still like the idea of the competition but as Robo said it may cause unwanted drama...
Stuff like Level Design, Horror Story, Character creation contests etc are okay in my book but only because it may help motivate and bring attention to creative creators.
Lol, maybe not that long.
This is what i had in mind when i said
short.
Back to topic, it seems there's only a few people looking forward to this.
Plus no moderator showed interest in this, so, sadly, it won't be possible.
