There can be nothing worthy for months, then there can be 10 outstanding works within a week. People may also not be aware / not care about the event, so any ES member running it would require to act as an art board mod and run through all threads to find any missing works to make proper judgement. And after all, ES can't even sustain a proper ingame activity level - with all respect to the current team, I doubt that they'll be able to keep this up for more than a few months at best.
Thanks for your opinion on this sir. However, do you think this outline may be more manageable?
Trimonthly — The Revamp:
- The competition would initially be started at the beginning of, let's say, April 1st. After this, the thread would be open and partially moderated for the entire three months. After the three months are up, the thread would be closed on July 1st, and the next competition would be opened up that same day. This allows for the competition to be hosted four times a year.
Ever wanted to get a little recognition for all of the excruciating time and detail put into your Toribash textures, art, and edits? Now you can! The Showcase was specifically created for you—yes, you, you super awesome artist you—to get recognized for your incredible talent!
Information:
- The Showcase is a trimonthly competition for eager artists to be recognized for their super awesome talent in their specific category.
- The top three in each category (texture creation, concept art and video editing) will be added to the official Toribash Art Showcase!
- This event only comes around four times a year. Make the most of it dudes!
Rules:
- Your submission must be completely crafted from your own wits and means. This means that you cannot use another party's art or designs for your own benefit.
- note: The only exception to this rule is for video editors using music in their edits. In this case, please let us know the song!
Violators of this rule will be bombarded with punishment.
- You may only have one submission per category. This means that you can submit in each category, but you can only submit once in each category.
- Once you have submitted for a category, you may not change your submission.
- Remember to post any programs/software used to create your art!
Esteemed Judges:
<list super awesome judges here>
These dudes will be judging your art based on creativity, design, and originality. They're pretty awesome dudes, so thanks to them for participating in this contest!
Prizes:
If anything, ES Artists could manage sifting through a few categories of art once every few months, and if not, I'm sure there are at least three to four artists who would love to volunteer for something like this.
