Death of Rats!
The rules and guidelines for the GP2X Community Game Contest are now set in stone, and we hereby declare the contest officially opened! Deadline: 11th of December! Donate now!
After Gamepark Holdings first released their contest's rules, there was a period during which said rules were heavily discussed, mostly not including any kind of positive feedback on the rules. They were unclear, open to more interpretations than a book of religion, and prone to inconsistencies that could either be bad English or GPH being sneaky-devious.
[CUT]After a while I, Magnulus, decided that enough was enough, and
We Have A Lock!
After a little under a month of forming and discussing the rules of the community game contest in the forums of gp32x.de, we have now locked down the final rules and uploaded them to the Contest Website, along with some general guidelines for a number of things. If there is anything you wish to know more about, send an email (address found at site) or send me or PSyMastR a PM with your question. We will be building a FAQ to answer questions you might have after reading the rules.
Some direct information you might want to know right away:
Deadline for judge applications: September 1st, 2006.
Deadline for entry: midnight (gmt -5) December 11th, 2006.
Entries released for download: max 1 week after December 11th.
Winners announced: 12th of January, 2007.
Donate Now!
As this is completely community administered, we are very dependant on your donations to the prize pot. You can donate anything from a single euro (anything less will be almost completely eaten by Paypal) and you will be added to the list of donators as well as the weekly update of people who have donated. If you donate more than 500 Euros you will get a nice, big banner at the top of the list. Just make sure you include your website's URL in the comments field of the donation so we can link to you.
Example of banner: (Don't worry, you can design the banner yourself. ^_^)

Thanks, guys!
Finally, I just want to thank PSyMastR for joining up as an administrator, discussing things with me and making the website. You're a patient man (as is anyone who can put up with my incessant nagging in MSN.). I also want to thank everyone who helped us make the rules as simple, concise and pleasing as possible. Especially Dzz and X-Code, who both put a lot of effort into finding discrepancies in the rules as we went along. Epicenter, Nickspoon, Orkie, Yono, Wite Noiz etc etc etc also deserve thanks for involving themselves in this competition.
Now Get crackin' with those games, geniuses![/CUT]
UPDATE!
If you donate 50 Euros, you get your name in bold.
If you donate 200 Euros, you get the banner shown in the first post.
If you donate 500 Euros, you get a double-sized banner from what's displayed.
