Contest #24: Spriting Tournament - Silverthorn - 01-14-2017

<MangaD> Silverthorn, any plans for a contest at 2017?
<Silverthorn> hmmm
<Silverthorn> I don't know
<MangaD> contest! contest! contest! (•̀o•́)ง

Thou askest and thou shalt receive!

Sprite your way to victory!

How this works:

In round 1, anybody may submit an entry to the theme shown below
After the deadline, anybody may vote on the entries.
Depending on the number of entries, the top X will advance to round 2
Same procedure as with round 1, the remaining participants will create a sprite matching a (yet secret) theme, after the deadline a poll will be made and the best Y will advance to round 3. Again, this will go on depending on the total number of entries submitted in round 1.

The following may differ from round to round, so please check back here before starting to work on a new theme!

Requirements (Round 1):

Create a new sprite according to the theme: BATTLES
Size: standard (80px or 100px).
You may create several individuals interacting with each other (up to 3).
Animations are not required but are welcome.
One entry per participant.
Post your entry in this thread. If you wish to remain anonymous during submission- and voting-phase, you may as well send the entry to me via Private Message; I will then add your name after completion of the votings of round 1.

Please submit your entries before Sunday, February 12^th Monday, February 20^th!!

Requirements (Round 2):

Create a new sprite according to the theme: MYTHOLOGY
Size: double-sized (160px or 200px).
You may create several individuals interacting with each other (up to 3).
Animations are not required but are welcome.
One entry per participant.
The top 5 of round 1 are eligible to enter and are set for the popular vote. The best 3 will advance to the final round 3.
However, there is an exception. Others may create an entry as well; there is a chance that one of the extra-participants may reach round 3 as well (yielding potentially 4 participants then). The conditions for that are as follows:
- There are at least 2 extra-submissions. The participant with the greater number of votes will eliminate all other extra-entries.
  Example: Anon 4, 5, and 6 joined in. Anon 4 got 4 votes, 5 got 5, 6 got 6. In that case, Anons 4 and 5 would be out.
- In the poll, the extra-entry must score higher than the third place of the round 1-winners.
  Example: let's assume Anon 1 had 10 votes, Anon 2 had 9, and Anon 3 had 8 votes. The extra-entry would then need at least 9 votes to advance to round 3. Anons 1, 2, & 3 would nevertheless advance to round 3.
- The two that dropped out of round 1 may enter as well. For the vote, they will fall into the extra-group. Additionally, they will retain the number of votes from round 1 in addition to any extra ones from round 2.
  Example: @AmadisLFE participated again and got 5 votes on his entry. Together with the 3 votes from the last round, he would have a total of 8 votes.
Post your entry in this thread. If you wish to remain anonymous during submission- and voting-phase, you may as well send the entry to me via Private Message; I will then add your name after you either drop out or when the contest ends.

Please submit your entries before Sunday, March 12^th Sunday, March 19^th!!

One entry per participant.
The winner of this contest will be determined in a popular poll.

When they're 3, do we get extra size for how big the scene can be?

No, it must all fit into an 80x80 pixels square

Kidding, if you are planning on making multiple, the canvas may be larger. Not so large that it fills up an entire monitor, of course, but there is no real size-contraint on that matter. Just keep it reasonable

Sure, anybody can participate in round 1. No limits

RE: Contest #24: Spriting Tournament - Gad - 01-14-2017

I am pumped up. Got few ideas already.

RE: Contest #24: Spriting Tournament - Cabba - 01-14-2017

i'll do my best

RE: Contest #24: Spriting Tournament - the mad maskman - 01-14-2017

and how much participants will move to next round(percentage since you don't know the number of people participating)?

Awesome, I'm excited in what you two come up with!

I really don't know and can't set a definite percentage. For example, assume I say "only the best 20% advance" and there are only 5 entries in total, then we would have an immediate winner. The same goes with fixed numbers, such as "the best 8 advance" with 5 entries seems kind of pointless as well.

That's why I'll make it up on the fly, we don't want things to end too soon and still provide an incentive to give your best

RE: Contest #24: Spriting Tournament - the mad maskman - 01-14-2017

well, it is improbable that we will only have 5 entries, since after only 7 hours, 3 people are interested to join, and, well, other spriting contests on lfe had lots of contestants.
