Gbax 2007 One Week Remaining Reminder

[Guyfawkes]

A quick reminder that you have a week until the July 7th 2007 at 23:59 GMT deadline for the GBAX 2007 Coding Competition. One additional and important note is that if your entry is over 20MB in file size please get in contact with us beforehand to arrange an upload to our FTP as our email only allows up to 20MB attachments. Alternatively if you have your own web space simply upload it there and let us know the URL. Full details on the competition can be found on the new site at http://gbax.gp2x.de/gbax2007.html, good luck!

I'm almost done, I only hope Richard Taylor will send my powered EXT->USB hub in time, otherwise I'm fucked

I've not started yet

I've a question, in entryinfo.txt, is the Name field the title of the game (as it implies), or the game's author's name? The example 'Joe Bloggs' for both author and game title is a bit boggling :rolleyes:

 

[sam fisher]

*grovels* might aswell finish mine off then

 

[kevcal]

Good luck to all - I'm too late for this one by a long way
But next time...!

It means the game name, it is a bad choice of name for a game but we have been using it in competitions for years now and its stuck

:blink: :blink: PANIC!

 

[fusion_power]

And when we know the Winner? How long need the jury to test the programms?

....well, I have my fav... :rolleyes:

 

[Guyfawkes]

Entries are usually available a day or two after the deadline. Winners are announced a week or two once we judged them.

 

[Huxley]

Ooh...

/is kinda excited

 

[TyBO!]

This must be why GP2X homebrew has slowed down a tad bit lately.

QUOTE
Any software which is fully working on the GP2X, GP32, PSP and DS hardware can be entered; a game, port, demo, emulator or application.


Is it just me or does that rule make it sound like the entries must be compiled to work for each listed hardware device? XD. May wish to replace that "and" with an "or". Damn bitwise operators.

 

[sam fisher]

Should it be an inclusive OR or an exclusive OR :S

*cries*

 

[Quiest]

Should you be a scientist?

I panic also, I took a few days free to work on my entries, but I couldn`t get anything done, my mind was totally blocked.

wow, everything already said! This is like rocket science...

/me lazy bum.

 

[Squidge]

I've got a cunning plan

But I still probably will watch films/etc instead of actually doing some coding

So do I.. kinda...

Can you recommend something? I think, I am going to buy the 2nd season of Battlestar Galactica...

 

[Squidge]

Program series I've been watching lately:

Heroes
House M.D.
24
The Loop
Standoff

Can't remember the last film. Remember watching it, but not it was called

You're gonna release that fullspeed N64 emulator that you finished months ago but couldn't be bothered to upload!
