We need some more fun around here!
« on: 4 February 2010, 12:31:20 »
I propose an animation contest, maybe something else too, but I can see why people don't come on the forums much...

competitions would add some fun around here. We could have animation, fan art, and modeling contests.

You don't have to be an animator to judge the quality of animation unless you're judging on a technical basis.

Community scoring would be best. Something like worth1000 where applicants are unidentified until the end, so you can't downvote someone by identity instead of skill.

No I am a fair person, but yes a community vote would be better. First we need to come up with some kind of plan.

I'll just skip the texturing part, actually maybe it would be better if this were done is teams of two or something, because I can't texture for crap, and I have a feeling if teams were done, it would help make up for peoples weak areas, it would also make the contest more interesting.

One way to vote would be to code a webpage so that it reads the entries from an XML, keeping them all anonymous, it would allow voting on a 1-5 scale, then average everything. I don't see how a community vote would work on this boards because there's no real way to anonymously post except to make a new account...

It's an anonymity program for your Web Browser. ;D
Protects you from being tracked and traced by anyone.....as far as I know........

I don't care, you guys rate my anims for what they are, if you hate me, the disassociate me and my anims in your head. :P
