Competition ideas (again)

Post by **PaulH** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 7:19 pm

People seem to want competitions, but they are just not getting off the ground! Anyone had any new ideas? With CSBWins functions, there are many possibilities.

The simplest competition would be to design a simple dungeon/puzzle etc then have a further competition to play them - it's the competition that feeds itself!

Like adamo said (except his idea of small monster dungeon was going to be inhernetly complex)

So there you go - a single level 'simple' dungeon competition!

I could recreate some classic RPG levels from other games if anybody is interested

How about who can eat the most screamer slices?

(It would be a tough contest between Daroou and Mophus I think)

Nah, not Mophus, he might get green gunk on his teeth.

You could have a competition to make a small, maze-like dungeon with, say, 50 Thieves in it and then see who can kill them all the fastest

Mowing down gigglers is always high on the list of "fun things to do."

Especially if we get some excessively powerful weapons to do it with. Tee hee!

Hehe yeah, it's just a Thief-massacre, only of course they'd be running around all over the palce, and more likely than not also stealing your uber weps while you charged around colliding with walls (whether dead-ends or not), running through illusionary walls, accidentalyl cahrging into teleporters, etc, trying to catch the little buggers. But it should all be on one level I think... Oh, and of course there's the horrendous problem of finding The One Remaining Thief Who's Hiding in the Opposite Corner of the Dungeon to Wherever You Are at the end...

Oh, this reminds me when I wanted to create level(s) for Doom2 that would look like part of our city's subway system

Thief massacre? noooo way, cmon guys, everyone knows all you gots to do is shoot like 3 posion clouds and wait... ^^

I'm always game for competitions, me and antman beat the hell out of the race-to-the-ful-ya pit competition, which was unbelievably fun =] We thought up so many clever tactics, was exciting to see the unbeatable times get beaten again and again and again.

In order for it to be good, it has to be challenging yet not impossible. Quick but not too fast, and allow for multiple strategies to be used. Limiting options is not an option!

So, I'm game.
