Dear Community,

Community Events

We from rAthena would like to express our thankfulness and appreciation for our loyal community by offering, from now on, periodically Community Events.

That said, I am very proud to present to you our first Community Event!

 

Community Event #1: A Fireworks Script Contest

For our first Community Event, a script which displays fireworks should be created.

How exactly the firework is displayed and of which elements it consists (be it skill effects, special effects, monsters walking around and or being killed) is completely up to you. The goal is that it is a pleasure and excitement to watch your firework.

Apart from the script, you also have to hand in a video which shows your firework.

To ensure equal chances for everyone, your video has to be exactly thirty seconds long. Your script can show a longer firework, but the winners are determined only based on the video - the scripts will be released after the winner has already been crowned.

Everyone can participate in this Community Event.

Deadline

The deadline is Tuesday, the 24th of Decembre 2013, 11:00 pm GMT/UTC. We will not accept scripts which we receive after this point of time, so make absolutely sure you submit your script before it!

 

Requirements

Your script has to be released under a free license (e.g., GNU General Public License) and you have to clear this by adding the respective comments at the start of your script. Be aware that all scripts will eventually be released for free to our community.

Moreover, you are not allowed to publicise your script and or video before the winner has been crowned. Doing so will lead to exclusion from this Community Event.

 

Submit your work

To submit your script, send a private message to Xynvaroth with the message title "Fireworks Script Contest" containing your script and video as an attachments (or, if not possible, external links). You will receive a confirmation of me that your script has been submitted.

 

The winner's election

When the deadline is reached, I will open a public vote including all videos and then, the whole rAthena community will decide over the winner.

After that, all scripts will be released and the winner awarded. All server owners are more than welcomed to use one or more of the scripts for their Silvester celebration!

 

Rewards

The winning script will permanently be added to our repository in a new folder and thus, be distributed with any future rAthena version. On top of that, the winner will receive a permanent forum award: 30jiwpe.png!

 

Conclusion

Feel free to use this topic for any questions which might remain.

I hope for many people to participate and wish each and everyone of you much creativity and good luck!

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The deadline is reached and the votes are now opened!

The votes will be closed before New Year's Eve, so be sure to cast your vote early enough!

I would like to thank everyone for participating and hope you liked it.

Yours sincerely,

Xynvaroth

huh around a 74% of the community participates on the support section, i anticipated this...

the event is a good idea, if rAthena has many many scripters

the event also delimitates, i mean, only if you can do script you can participate

just saying, an event where anyone without specific skills required to participate would be good (:

this was going to be the first event of the community o: also ty for the initiative

let me rate ...

euphy wins in script cleanliness and script readability

emistry wins in simplicity and script optimization

goddameit wins in creativity when compare to them both ... however his scripts are unoptimized as always

 

The goal is that it is a pleasure and excitement to watch your firework

but the winners are determined only based on the video

All server owners are more than welcomed to use one or more of the scripts for their Silvester celebration!

< EDITED >

and yes ... this kind of contest is only applicable for those who can write an event script <.<

when asked who can write an event script, I can use my ten fingers to count how many persons in rathena can produce one ...

me no creativity so please don't count me in ....

me only make script accordingly to the request in script request section

lol, told you, the event it's up to only ppl who can script, all other members who can't script at all will not/can't participate

the event was cool, i like it and i'm sure many more did, but if ya want more ppl to participate next time, you should think in an event that doesn't require ppl specific skills to do

 

well, congrats goddamit xd !

That doesn't matters. I enjoyed the event and I didnt participate either. I mean, just by looking at those 3 videos + the comments/ratings and the votes was enough for me.

 

Also If I have to add something, I'll say that an event without specific skills would be about ... what? o_O
