If you’ve read the comments of the previous post entitled “Reviews” you know that Alcator suggested a contest to get more reviews for the blog in the near future. He also introduced an idea of people making short, 15 second long tech-track for this purpose.
I decided to use this idea and a contest has already been created for this
While I did decide to remove the tech-track parts and give people more freedom to be creative the idea of extremely short tracks is still valid.
To get to the case, here are the main details:
- People (yes, you fall into that category) create tracks following the below rules.
- The tracks are uploaded to TMX and posted in a specific forum thread (again, see below)
- The submitted tracks are judged in a three-stage process.
This may all sound very simple, and basically it is
The main twist is the fact that each track may be no longer than 15 seconds long, and that, during the judging process, two to five tracks are to be reviewed here at the blog. The highest rated track is then the winner of the contest.
Prizes: Up to 5750 coppers split between the top tracks, along with the free exposure to the tracks being reviewed.
Now, as track building contests are usually best advertised at TMX I’ve already created a forum topic there, which will be the main asset of this contest. In other words, that thread is where you can get all the details of the contest as well as being the place where you submit tracks.
So if all this sounds interesting, go check out the thread at TMX and start building some short masterpieces
Good luck and have fun!
