I´ve been waiting for this thread, nice.

Is it possible to close the other topics for other than the competitiors and the judges?
Nope sorry it isn't otherwise we would've done that :( Any favourites to win?
Well it is possible but it takes about an hour to get make the special masks, edit the other forums so you could post in there as well and stuff. But I think MA'd rather delete a couple of posts than taking one hour now to make the masks and stuff(for those who don't know what I mean with masks; it's more of a group status thing, that you can alter so people can read and reply and stuff like that for different forums; it's kind of hard to explain)

There are 3 different matches. Not 1 battle with the people.

Aries, when will the first final battle be up, since it's been a while since we saw one. If you want to talk to me privately about it, hit me up on MSN. I'd like to talk to you anyway, so I'll check up with you ASAP. I think the finals will be awesome, seeing the graphics skills of each finalist are very well, and they all have a reputation to look upto.

Backgrounds.

Post by: Firefly on November 01, 2005, 10:16:40 PM
Maybe each round different, like 1st round everyone makes sigs, 2nd round wallpapers, 3rd web templates etc.. Each battle with a special theme of course. Or maybe just stick with sigs. There are a lot of gfx newbies on this site, and good wallpapers are not easy to make.

Post by: Aries on November 02, 2005, 03:16:57 AM
I know but were not really seeing who is the best graphics designer if we are just doing signatures are we now? Either way just tell me your ideas and I will take them into consideration.

i have post my sig :P

Post by: Xtramus on November 02, 2005, 09:40:12 AM
I would have done 1st round sig 2nd round animated and 3rd round backgrounds. And bahrain STFU, you're not a judge so you have no control over the matches. Tough luck. And don't go flaming a crew just because you don't like the person, I'm not in it, and a couple of judges aren't as well, so don't go posting stuff that sounds like we're going to let someone win because he's in a special crew.

I have a suggestion for the next tournament, but it includes a lot of changes. Though I think it will be more fair then the actual one.

As many as want to join can do that, no upper limit. The judges can be like it is now, 5 or something. There will not be one vs. one matches, everyone will be competing against everyone in every challenge. For every round there will be a new and different challenge, which all have to do. This way the allround quality will be shown by the competitors.

Then I got two ideas how the judges can do.

Idea 1:
For every round every judge has to chose the worst of the entries. The one with most votes is out. Then we just keep doing so until one is left and the winner. Maybe we could make the challenges more challenging in the end of the tournament and the final could be a bigger challenge (like the one in GTA SL or something).

Idea 2:
For every round every judge has to pick the five best entries, and give, for example, 5 points to the best one, 4 to the second, 3 to the third, 2 to the fourth and 1 to the fifth. Then we have like 10 challenges and the two with most points goes to the big final.

Yeh. I like that idea  :) Thanks for the contribution.

Post by: ChaIneD on November 03, 2005, 10:59:47 AM
I especially like the 2nd idea, being kicked out isn't fun, and with that one you won't be kicked out because you can't do anything with one challenge.

Post by: Torque on November 03, 2005, 03:11:32 PM
Cool idea man.

Post by: Aries on November 05, 2005, 04:05:00 PM
175k. Winner gets..........50k
125. Runner up gets 25k

Any favourites to win?
I entered this competition just to win and I think I got a good chance to do it. If I lose any battle I will see it as a defeat.
 :D

Thanks to all of you, hope more tournaments of this kind will come. Thanks to Areis for all his work with the tournament too.  ;)

Thanks!
