Default Adventure game contest (win stuff!) [Voting Stage]

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.

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!

Default Accepting submissions!

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. :P

Just adding that atropos spent a bit of time asking some info via pm to start a worthy competition, so i hope we'll see some entry even with darkesword attractive competition.

there are probably some under-remixed adventures games soundtracks who are waiting for you.

I have an arrangement for this, but no talent on either instrument it's for to play it. I might just go for The Dig or someshiz instead.

If this were Facebook I'd like this x7.

I just wish I could remix well enough to enter this :(

Well, I've started working on something.
I'm not too good, but OCR gets $5 either way, so I may as well give it a shot.

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. :)

Gah, the deadline's the 20th? For some reason I remembered it as the 27th (I must have got it confused with the voting deadline - Thank god I came back and checked)

I'm determined to get something in though, no matter how bad it ends up. I'm suprised nobody seems to have shown much interest in this. Has anyone actually submitted anything yet?
