Atropos

I updated the first post with the vote results. Congratulations, guys!

Voting ends within 24 hours at 11:59 PM Eastern TONIGHT (4:59 AM GMT)! Get any last-minute votes in soon.

Any time this weekend would be fine. No need to rush at this point.

If you'd still like to finish yours, I'll submit another donation for it. Your post made me curious what you were working on!

That would certainly match the style of the piece, too.

Voting is now open! Please check the first post for details. Thank you for your entries! Dhsu, I included yours in the list despite it being late (you were only late by an hour or so). I have no idea what it's from, so if you accidentally posted it in the wrong thread, let me know. With only four entries, we are increasing our donation to OCRemix to $10 per entry, and we'll give away two 3rd place prizes so all four of you can win something.

I've received only two entries so far - one yesterday and one today. I guess it's a busy time of year, with school for some and taxes for many. After going so long without any activity, I'm relieved to see any entries at all! Thanks to those who have entered so far, and hopefully other people can sneak in submissions before the deadline.

Hah, we once did a Photoshop contest where only one person submitted an entry that fit the criteria. We still picked second and third place winners out of the people who completely messed up, but the guy who met the requirements got first place by default. Winners don't always have to be good, they just have to be better than the competition.

We're officially accepting submissions for this contest as of today! Someone has to win, so even if all you do is submit a quick 1-minute-long remix, your chances would look pretty good so far.

VOTING Voting will last 1 week, opening Sunday, February 21 as soon as I post the entries and closing Saturday, February 27 at 11:59 PM EST. Voting is open to anyone on this forum who registered before the announcement of this contest. To cast your vote, please send me (Atropos) a private message on this forum, with the following format: 1st: Artist and remix title 2nd: Artist and remix title 3rd: Artist and remix title Each 1st place vote is worth 3 points, each 2nd place vote is worth 2 points, and each 3rd place vote is worth 1 point. You get to vote only once and you can't vote for the same remix multiple times. Entrants cannot vote for themselves, but they will automatically receive three points if they vote. If you would like to offer feedback to the artists along with your vote, I will be happy to post feedback with the results. I will not post who the feedback is from, however. Winners will be announced in this thread on Sunday, February 28. PRIZES 1st place - 320GB external HD 2nd place - Metal USB-charging remote control helicopter 3rd place - LucasArts Adventure Pack on Steam, or pick a size for an OCRemix T-shirt After the votes have been tallied, winners will be asked to provide a shipping address via e-mail (the same e-mail address they used to submit their entries) in order to claim their prizes. If a winner doesn't want to provide a shipping address, we'll be happy to substitute a digital prize (ie ThinkGeek gift certificates, Steam games, etc.) instead. Mailing addresses get deleted as soon as the winner confirms receiving his/her prize. If a collaboration wins, the people in that group will have to decide on a substitute prize that can be divided between them. In the case of a draw between two people, both people will receive the prize they earned. In the case of a draw between more than two people, we'll have to work something else out.* We will ship prizes internationally, but anyone outside of the USA may end up having to pay customs fees if your customs regulations are particularly evil. Prizes will be shipped within two days of the votes being tallied. * Because we can't be sending out 10 external hard drives. Sorry!

Voting is over and the results are in! 1st place: So You Want to be a Hero... by JerryTerry (inspired by Quest for Glory I) 2nd place: angelitos by Dhsu (inspired by Grim Fandango) 3rd place (tie): Dark World Dungeon by Cameron Steele (inspired by Zelda) 3rd place (tie): Survived! by Dizar (inspired by Monkey Island) All four of you did a great job! I'll be sending you four a PM and an e-mail today in order to gather information about whether you want a digital prize (no address needed) or a shipped prize. Thanks again for entering! It was a lot of fun to host a contest here and I am certain we will be doing it again.
