FiestaFan "Odds and Ends" Competition. Prizes.
 
After reading this post by NavMan, http://www.fiestafan.com/forums/showthread.php?t=221, I was inspired to do something based on this idea. Ever play Fiesta and wonder who the crackpot behind the graphics and game mechanics was? The purpose of this post is to get everyone hunting for weird/funny odds and ends in Fiesta, whether it be something that looks out of place (such as NavMan's planet of the apes scene) or something that just "plain don't make sense". For example, ever wonder why the PALM trees in Fiesta drop apples?

A prize of ten silver will go to two people. Ten silver for the oddest/funniest graphical screenshot, voted by me (and partly the public), and another ten silver for the person who finds the most abstract thing in Fiesta.

Rules:

1) Screen shots must be posted here. (unfortunately NavMan's statue of liberty can not be used, as funny as it was)
2) Do not post about bugs, those aren't strange things Fiesta did on purpose, they're bugs for god sake.
3) One submission per person.
4) If you've submitted something, you can't vote. (Leave comments if you wish, just don't score).
5) Enjoy yourself.

Prize Distribution:


The prizes aren't much because I'm pretty poor, but heck that isn't really the point. Anyway, the competition will be closing one week from now (God I hope Closed Beta 2 doesn't end by then, otherwise I've made a fool of myself ._.). PM's will be sent to the winners, in which a meeting time will be discussed afterward.

Judgement

Judgement will be based on three criteria. Weirdness, humour, and public response. Weirdness and humour will be judged by myself (this is also technically judged by the public).

Quote:

Public response will be measured accordingly:

Votes are out of ten. You must leave a valid comment as to why you give a person a particular score. I don't want to read "OMG NOOB" and see scores of 1 or 2. That's retarded, and I don't like that.

People submitting screenshots/ironic things can not vote.

Those without submissions are allowed to vote though, but must give scores out of ten. Each entry into the competition will be indexed in this post (with the appropriate bookmark), which will be constantly updated.

EDIT YOUR POSTS WITH UPDATES ON YOUR OPINIONS OF OTHERS SUBMISSIONS. I do NOT want this thread to be a gazillion pages long. EDIT PEOPLE, EDIT.

If no votes are received then you receive a 0 from public response. Don't worry, if no one voted for you, I doubt anyone else got votes (FF community still pretty darn small .____.). This is just an opportunity for newbies or veterans to contribute to FiestaFan in a different way.

Terms for disqualification


Those who do not follow the rules are succinct to disqualification. Remember to EDIT your posts. I will allow a few slip ups, but anyone too incompetent to press the edit button under their first post, I will personally backhand from the competition.

Current Index of submissions:

Quote:

Pink = Ironic Phrase
Green = Screenshot

No submissions as of yet.

Well good luck hunting people, there aren't many funny things in Fiesta out there, but when they're there, they're funny .____. I hope everyone gets a good giggle out of the screenshots/weird things people are about to post.

(Competition not endorsed by FiestaFan, just named after it .___.)

LMAO. So true! I have a few dead phizzies in my folder, methinks.

Question: What is the limit of number of screens? Or can we just post one? Can we post like, our 3 best entries or something? =) This is great. I am so povo.

I hadn't thought of that, I'll be editing the post with more specific details. I'd edit it now, but then you wouldn't realise I've changed anything. This is the only post I'll make again in this thread, other then that, just check the starter post for updates.

There'll be a limit of one entry per person, so pick your best. Have fun btw =]
