Contest of the Month!

^ I like that.

Another idea is to have one big box, with a smaller box in the middle. The track must be inside the big box, but outside the smaller box.

This should have actual prizes and a point system over time, to show the most committed and skillful riders.

Anyways, vague concept ideas

Track-oriented
-Track must move in preset spiral lines
-Track must be an all red XY
-Track must have 3 pauses of at least X seconds
-Track must have a manual over X seconds.
-Track must exploit some glitch or other (not sure whether this is still doable in mhenr's version, but things like supersuperzoom, teleport glitch)
-Track must never go faster than X speed
-Track must never go slower than X speed
-Track must be completely comprised of gravity wells
-Track must have no gravity wells
-Track must move within certain boundaries (this has huge potential, but eventually it gets old)

Most of these could be combined in a variety of ways, not all of them are mutually exclusive.

Scenery-oriented
-Track must have over X lines of scenery
-Track must be a negative (black background, white scenery)
-Track must simply be a stall with an epic monument, which will be judged

Ran out of ideas.

I'd like to part of the judging process, any way I can get in on that?

hey grindlines check your PM's

what if there was a box made with only blue lines (sol provided so it is equal), and you made a track inside, but it has to end at one point out of the box.

this is kinda what i mean https://2img.net/h/i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd47/CamQuartr/Screenshot2010-11-06at92528PM.png

it may end anywhere out of the box.

wtf? So you have to line glitch outside?

sounds cool, but hard.

it doesn't have to be contest of the month for you to do it

Yeah, but its an ossum contest and everyone commented on how original and different it is. It could deserve it

well you should restate your idea in this thread then

Uhh...

The aim is:
Draw some lines in the 'draw area' and try to propel bosh out into the course which i will provide you with, and wherever bosh lands/stops moving, the number in that section will be the amount of points you get. Send the sol to me and Ill keep all the results in secret and will reveal a winner at the deadline.

Rules:
You cannot draw any lines outside the draw area
You cannot modify the track in any way!
You can move the start point anywhere withing the draw area
You can use all line colours, even green if your cool like that
You can be offsled or on sled, but if offsled:
-You get half your total points
-Your points are where the body lands, not where the sled lands
If you post your amount of points in public, you will be disqualified
You must send me the sols in PM's, or you will be disqualified
EDIT: Super rule: If the sled is on two different scores at once, you get both the scores added together.

sol of course:
<insert sol when done here>

Prizes:
1st (most amount of points): 5 rep, YT subscription, a trophy it this contest makes COTM
Runner up: 2 rep

I will also ad a printscreen of the course aswell.
I would be the host, and i probably would have a servant aswell to help (record, etc, because if its big i will plan a results video as in the downwards maze contest)

^ that sounds fun

Its nothing like the beta decline contest

This is an extremely simple version of a maze idea I had:

weee

Synchronised Dual Riders track contest.
Both riders must be visible in the video.
You can do a sort of symmetrical track or crossover track. Think of 2 synchronized swimmers.

Commence hate about Beta 3

I think it's a great idea, beta 3 is awesome

how about an all flat sled recycle track.

See how long you can make the track with only 200 lines or less. No green lines.

I already started a contest like that. The deadline is Nov. 20. Remember? You made a reply to it. lol

EDIT: I do like the idea of a maze contest.

I can make it last for 10:59 with one line

Here's a more difficult version of my maze idea: https://2img.net/h/i379.photobucket.com/albums/oo237/NiNjATeaMAwesoMe/maze.png?t=1289309440

Spoiler:

What you think? Too hard?

lineglitch straight up, 4 second win.

make the lines around the outside half a sled-width appart and get 3-4 of them to prevent use of lineglitching. or just make it against the rules.

anyway if there's gonna be a maze it should be a complicated maze.

Or it should be a maze that's basic so that new people actually have a chance of winning. No one is going to glitch it. We want contest that are pretty simple and able to be done. I don't want a freaking 1:00 maze contest.. herp derp.

I want the .sol for that!
I suggest we take Votales maze. It looks really fun to make an entry

I'm going to compile all ideas into one thread and make a poll on Saturday. If you want to flesh out your idea, do so before then

i want a friggin maze contest...NOW!

yeah i like votales maze it looks awesome

new people won't win though, it'll be an old hand abusing Gwells and pinches. at least if the maze is bigger you may see some variation in techique between entrants.

It doesn't matter if they win or not. A lot of people don't enter just to win they enter because it looks fun. That's the whole point of the Contest of the Month.

Ya i like votales idea
