    One suggestion. With this much on the line it might be good to consult with the official totb judges before announcing the official theme for the contest.

    just a thought. I still think a rubric would be helpful too.

    This is going to be awesome!

    Cheers, Weswog

    I'm guessing the pro membership is just for a year?

    What do you think about Asia theme? Jungle, desert, China, Japan, Samurais, Ninjas, Sushi, India etc.? I think, it's a pretty good theme, and everyone should find something interesting in this.

    LOL you have my menu Templates twice in your prize list.

    Let make it interesting for everyone. GameSalad getting on Board makes me want to contribute more.

    1st Place - Template Pack by Tenrdrmer $100 Value
    GS BubbleBall Template
    Stacks Level Selection Template
    Expanding Options Menu Template
    Menu #3 Level Selection
    Menu #4 Level Banners

    2nd Place - Pick any 2 of the First Place Templates

    3rd Place - Pick any 1 of the First Place Templates

    I also think it would be good to make sure all judges are on board with the scoring system and such before hand. Theres a lot at stake in the one for this to be done willy nilly. :)

    How are those prizes going to be divided? Or is it just 1 prize only? Or are there multiple prizes?

    Sounds fun, at any rate.

    No worries about judge scoring I'll get on to that early next week.

    The theme idea is decided. It's a good 'n' I promise. happy to run it by any judges if they really want to know.

    Prizes will be divided up a bit. Still deciding exactly how. Probably into best overall game, most original, best art that sort of thing.

    Can someone close this thread for now and use the other discussion one please. As at the moment the other one is still showing up in recent comments. Yoda is on the case and will keep the forum tidy so any threads in the totb3 category won't show up in recent posts.

    I'll try an close this myself but on my iPhone so may struggle. Night
