Multi-instanced spell contest.
____________Well, I decided i'd take a crack at hosting a competition. I dont have any reward to offer, so this is purely for competitive reasons.
Ok, first off, you will be creating a spell that is 100% multi-instacable. The spell can be in Jass or GUI but i'd be suprised to see a multi-instancable GUI spell.
Ok, for judging: Each spell must be entered into a single catagory. Each spell is award a total of 100 points the points are judged by:
Compliance - can be from 0 to minus a one-hundred
points. (You will only get penalized if the spell
does not comply with the catagory type)
Eye candy - 25pts (Eye candy is good
Originality - 25pts (I dont want to see something
that has been done a billion times (IE a nova))
Effect - 15pts (What does this spell do?)
Leakless - 15pts (You will be penalized if the spell has memory leaks)
Usefulness - 15pts (Would the average map maker use this spell?)
Description - 5pts (Its always good to have a
good description. Just as long as it says what the
spell does, you will not be penalized.)

Ok, now for some universal catagory rules, simple enough.
Universal catagory rules:
All spell must comply with theyse rules, or be dis-
qualified:
The spell may not use any of vexorians spell templates.
The spell must be yours.
The spell must be triggered (obviously
The spell must be Easy and userfriendly to edit .
===
Ok, thats the judging & rules, now each spell must be entered into one catagory, or it will not be judged.
The catagorys are:
Non-elemental spell catagory;
The spell cannot contain elemental-type sfx, or have
any elemental effects. (IE no flame nova that sets
a unit on fire)
Elemetal spell catagory;
The spell can use any elemental sfx, but it cannot use unit-models, ect. It must be either:
Fire, ice/water, lightning/wind, earth/stone.
Free spell catagory;
The spell can use any sfx model, and can do practicaly anything.
Advanced spell catagory;
The spell cannot use units at all (except the caster). It can only use special effects/lightning. No units at all. The spell must be flashy, the more complicated the code, the higher the marks.
Pure eye candy spell catagory;
Doesnt matter what this spell does or anything, purely eye candy (but it still must be multi-instancable, and relatively leakless)
Nova spell catagory;
This one is for the ever-popular nova. Nova must be original, not just some sfx created in a circle.
Well that concludes the catagorys. The deadline is:
Tuesday, November 29, 2005. I will not extend that deadline.
GL, and have fun! I hope to see some interesting stuff!
