| Demo competition with prizes: probing the audience
Ok, it's time to launch a scandalous proposal.
What about a demo competition with a Plus/4 as winner's reward? How many ppl would be interested? What about a double take, with a 2 categories (megademo and filedemo) compo?
What about a logo competition 4th edition with a cute gift for the winner? How many ppl would be interested? What about a "no logo size limitation" rule that allows you to select from both piclogo and charlogo sized and shaped as you wish?
I need your suggests and feedback, thank you in advance.

Sounds a great idea Luca
I'm only begining to learn to code so won't be ready to contribute as a coder, but I'm willing to sponsor the competition and provide the prize. Might be able to throw in alot more than a Plus 4
Regards,
Chris

Sure, some compos would be cool as long as they are well organized, and the goal is reachable.
I personally think megademos are out of the question. After 13 years I'm still working on our groups first megademo, perhaps others are faster, but that's too big of a production for a compo. At least in the Plus/4 scene, look at our production rate if in doubt... (Unless we're planning to give at least a year for the deadline.) File demos (perhaps based around a theme or an effect?), or size limited demos would be a fun challenge.

Mh, well, I must admit that winning a Plus/4 with a onefile demo would be a great bussiness. Well, I hope that the lighten weight of the request (onefile) will gather many more users! Other feedbacks?

Hi, I will anyhow join the Logo competition (size, color, type: no problem)
Suggestions: to get such a result I will also like to show my friends: I would prefer such logo has no color limitation (such the 4 colors in the previous ones), and if size could be a little bigger. Piclogo better fits to my experiences with tools, but if only charlogo is possible, then I will learn how to do it. Just take a little more time.
So you can count me as one player...
Nowadays I prefer more the emu on PC than the real Plussy (shame on me, but more flexible, SID emu(like a dream, hehe), PC screen capture, etc). So if I may win, I can provide the set to someone really wants to kill for a piece :->>
Proposed finishing date?
Bye: MMS

OK, just to make it clear after the previous mail: free competition without prize is also OK for me!

As an aside, we're considering running a games competition over at OSG with prizes... would anyone be interested in that?
