FHannes Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) For the January contest we've decided to go for another RS2 contest. Guidelines: Script goal: Withdraw bones from bank to bury all of them and repeat. No location or bone type requirement, but may be a good idea to add for extra features. Rules: You must use SCAR You must use OSI You must not use reflection, SPS, or anything of that nature (at least not this time, it's not available right now anyways.. look for future competitions) You may not receive outside help other than compilation/runtime error fixes. (this means this is not a team effort, although you can get brief scripting help if you need it ... there may be future team scripting competitions) No plagiarizing Prize: A €7.5 paysafe card (can be used to buy a month RS2 membership). (Everyone is welcome to make donations to add to the prize of course.) There is no entry fee for these competitions or entry deadline other than the script submission deadline which will be the 2nd to last Saturday of every month, though it is advisable to submit at least the Friday before that. That means the deadline is Januari 21st for this competition. To participate, send me a private message first, stating what competition(s) you're entering! Your entries for the contest should be submitted via email to contest [at] scar-divi.com, noting your username on the forums and the contest for which you wrote the script, with the script as an attachment (.scar file). If you have questions about the contest, please don't mail them to the address above, but ask them in this topic! Scripts in either competition can not be public until after the deadline has passed, not after you submit them (for early submissions) this means you can publish your script after the deadline but before the results are given. Revisions made to your script after the deadline and before the results are taken into account, but are not taken into account as much as the original submission. It is highly recommended for everyone to publish their entry as soon as the deadline passes to earn as many points as possible. Judging for this contest will be done by the OSI Developers excluding those developers that may be competing in the competition. No one who competes in the competition with any chance of collecting any type of prize may help compete or compete themselves. Every competition will have 1 predesignated final judge that will pass final script judgment and announce a winner after considerations from the other judges. For the this competition, Wanted will assume the role of final judge. Scripts will be judged based on the following 1000 point criteria system: 700 performance. 400 of which will be how well the scripts runs, efficiency and humanness (anti-ban) etc.. the other 300 of which will be longevity and durability of the script.. i.e. how long the script can run (anti-randoms is also in here) 200 content. This includes coding style, coding standards, organization, documentation, lack of redundancy... all that good stuff. Make sure you indent your script properly! 100 all other features and aspects. Extra features etc. Points given back for after submission revisions will be calculated as such: Final score = Old Score + ((New Score - Old score) X 0.25) Any plagiarizers will automatically be disqualified from the competition and be suspended for 6 months from all competitions from the date of the beginning of the start of the competition found to be cheating in. If any guidelines are broken (such as reflection usage) then the user has only the normal late submission time and submission re-earn-able points to be made. Unless a sufficient argument is made and decided in favor by the judges. If any rules are broken (such as Individual only using group efforts, or judges being bribed etc.) then automatic disqualification, but no suspension. Judges will no longer be judges and may face retribution depending on the severity and decision of the staff/other judges/ developers/ community. Competition results will be posted the day before the next competition starts. Prizes will be given out ASAP to the convenience of the distributor and winner. We hope you enjoy these competitions and gain more knowledge from them in the end and have fun more than anything, winning and prizes are just for fun. The real prize behind these competitions is the experience. Edited January 3, 2012 by Freddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bixby Sayz Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Running 2 competitions simultaneously? Ambitious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FHannes Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 The seasonal contests are intended for more advanced scripters who have quite a lot of experience with SCAR, of course everyone is allowed to participate in both contests, beginners will just have a lot better chances in the monthly contests as for experienced scripters it's logical to enter the seasonal ones since the prizes are much greater.
