    I wish I knew what the themes was but if we did it wouldn't be a contest.

    Ah ha, I figured it out! I would tell you all what it is, but I'm sure Stormy wants to keep it a secret until the contest officially starts :)

    Looks like this is shaping up to be another great contest with a lot of interest so far!

    I didn't consider entering the contest because my gamesalad skills are rudimentary at best but the prize of a pro membership is tempting me to try!

    Go on...you might win something if not the pro licence...or it might lead to the best game ever and earn you millions.... :-)

    Apps of Zach that's great to hear.

    Hopefully we will have at least 30 active competitors for the contest. Maybe more.

    Is there going to be a prize drawl ;
    1= pro license, 2nd= something, 3=something, 4=something,
    Or is it everything for first,
    ---
    Also it was mentioned on Facebook, and i don't know if its going ahead, but is there a second gs pro license??
  • StormyStudioStormyStudio United KingdomMember Posts: 3,989
    @Leonard - Just the one GS Licence that I know about.

    As for prize breakdown, it will be similar (possibly the same system) as before.

    1st (GS Pro Licence plus a few others) 2nd (other prizes) and 3rd (other prizes) and then different cool prizes for best use of 'audio and graphics', 'best originality' and 'best gameplay'...

    I think thats right anyway.

    I'm going to see how to do it. There must be a website that gives you the needed code for a countdown to a specific time and date in a cool way. Hopefully without adverts

    Just some questions :D,
    Judged by the gs team?
    --
    By saying is coming 1/1/12 does that mean we have to submit by then?? Or it is starting by then??
    --
    Is it broken into different categories like the oscars;
    E.g 1st' 2nd , 3rd overall, best for sound, best for graphics, best for gameplay
    ?????

    @Leonard:

    All these questions have been answered in this thread somewhere, also in the opening comment... also its the same setup as the last contest which has all the details, rules, score sheets and stuff on my website.

    Answer to each question:

    1.Judged by the gs team?
    • No to be judged by respected people of the forum ideally the same crew as before. (I still need to confirm they're all happy too...please look at TOTB3 threads to see who the judges were before if interested, I will announce them once confirmed for this time.).

    • Thats when the theme is being announced, it's going to last all of January, you have to submit before the very end otherwise it wont count.

    Prizes:
    Review article on my upcoming website, (I have an seo, tool deal with a hosting package I already have so it will get a decent amount of views)
    --
    A custom intro (intro for a possible promo video), a custom intro, I will make the intro you can tell me the name you want and pick the style, that I will offer a selection of styles of intros,
    ( I'm still debating on this one and this is not legit, yet, I'm still not certain on this one, as it may take me some time)

    I just bough an android tablet and received an email that my GS pro lisence is expired (hell, I didn't even know the old lisence gave me pro!). Now I come back to this site after a while and I see awesomeness of Android ports! Feels like a missed opportunity..

    So I really need to try and win this TOTB :) Can't wait to see the theme.
  • kapserkapser Member Posts: 458
    sorry for double post
  • StormyStudioStormyStudio United KingdomMember Posts: 3,989
    great to have you on board Kapser...

    and @Leonard thanks for the prize offerings, I won't post about the logos if its not a legit offer yet.) As for judges taking part in the contest...no they cannot as that would give them a bit of a major advantage...
  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630
    @Stormy,
    Ok forget the logo,
    I shall make the lucky winner an intro (intro video) (can be used in promo videos, videos, websites, ads everything) ,
    Hope you guys like this,
    Jack
  • StormyStudioStormyStudio United KingdomMember Posts: 3,989
    Thanks Leonard, I'll add it to the list soon.

    Nearly got the dream 30 yes's (yes's ?) on the poll.

    I hope everyone who could take part knows about the contest.
  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630
    Yes i mean its a bit stupid really there is 46,700 gs members 40,000 (approximately because people have duplicate accounts and inactive members)
    So only 26 people are intereted i taking part in a free contest that you could win prizes over $2000 (€1600) (£1400)
    ----
    Its bit of fun at the least and if you're lucky you could win a prize,

    Do you expect anyone on here to produce anything sane?
