Voting for Fanmade Contest #3 Topic

by TheHallMonitor » Sun Nov 04, 2012 10:04 pm

PLEASE tell me you didn't already vote before reading this.

So yeah, I feel like I don't really have to explain anything. Here's what each topic includes:

Heroes: You think of your own hero (no using heroes that have already been thought of), his/her exact stats for each level, and his/her skills.

Levels: This one will probably be the most difficult. You must design your own level. You have to make a crude drawing of how the level would like (tower positions, pathways, the shield thingy), you have to explain exactly what and how many enemies (think of new enemies for an A) are in a wave (12 waves btw), and any additions.

Level Specific Additions (positive): These are helpful extras that you see in levels. Stuff like Sasquatch, Sunray, and the Imperial Guards. You must explain in high detail about every aspect. Can you upgrade it? Can you buy more units? Do you have all units you can possibly have when you start?

Level Specific Additions (negative): These are bad bad things that may or may not make you want to scream and ragequit. Repeatedly. Things like the Graveyard and the Green Lake from Rotten Forest. Some examples would be fog, terrain that is dangerous for barracks, or an area with a powerful wind that renders arrows useless. (this category I'm unsure of, I would really like to hear some opinions on whether or not it is a good idea to do this ^^)

Can we use levels we've already made?

This would require a breakdown of how it fits into the level, which is why I'm leaning towards levels, but:
I need THM to say whether or not we can use levels we have already made.

Only a brief breakdown, nothin' much.

Sure. But I don't think a level should completely add new advancement towers. And that boss is just... ridiculous, in my opinion.


Actually for levels, would you guys prefer community voting, or three judges? (I'll be one)

Voting is more democratic (can I be a judge if we choose the other way?)

For levels (and stories) I'd rather have judges, as many people
are not going to read all entries when they are of such length ^^

When I looked at the 4 things to pick from I chose hero because I had no idea what the level addition positive and negative were but then I read what it was and now I wish I chose level addition positive

Alright, it looks Heroes are just barely in the lead. But there's still one more day, anything can happen.

And since a majority say so, winning levels will be picked by (3) judges. The other two judges would be picked in a vote when it comes to it.

Alright, based on the results, it looks like I'm awesome.

Oh and it also looks we're doing heroes for the next contest. That'll (hopefully) be up on Saturday, remember user entries must be sent by PM, minimum 8 entries to start the contest, backstories are not required. And I'll change all the entries to match one format so it would be even more anonymous.^^

There is no deadline, after the first 8 entries that is.

Can you at least give us an example form or something for us to base it off of to make sure our forms aren't missing anything making them invalid? A small request that would help a lot. Just post it on the Hero Contest Topic.
