Boss Battle Contest 2010-10-01 20:18:29

I just thought of an awesome contest (in my opinion). I should find the best boss battle song ever! Here's how the contest works
1. Make a post with a link to your boss song on Newgrounds in this topic
2. I will decide the winner by Saturday October 9th.
3. I will select the top 3 songs (with runner ups of course).
4. There is no prize unfortunately because I have nothing to give.
5. Have fun!

How organized. I think we should all just make spammy audio and submit it for this contest.

I said we should all make audio for this contest. I never said there was anything wrong with it. And I never said that thsi was spam. You are not of the allegiance. OFF WITH HIS HEAD!

How ironic, I started composing a "Boss battle theme" 2 days ago. But considering I'm still a noob I'm not sure if I'll post it yet or not :O. Any VG mastah's willing to lend me an ear or 2(or 3 depending on the gender)?

Not really, no lol.

And for shits and giggles.

Not trying to be an ass or anything. Just a little pet peeve of mine when people misuse "irony".

If you wish to make a contest and host it on this forum, you must put some effort into it. Othervice we'd get loads of "lol imma maekin cnotnes" threads that never gets finished up. We've seen it before, and at the end of the day such threads are just a waste of space and peoples time.

I think this do sound like a fun idea, but make a little more of it.

Example of what to add:
- Have a clear set of rules. But it can, with advantage, be kept simple.
- Find some additional judges that can help you out. Othervice you might as well host a contest like this in your blog.
- Perhaps try to make a twist of the whole "boss battle" thing... maybe it should be for a specific made up boss, perhaps you could help inspire the audio artists with some visual artwork etc.

Not saying that you have to put hours of effort into making a contest, just that the more serious it looks and the more effort spent on the contest, the more likley it is that the contest will actually be finished up. I'm not just accepting anyones word similiar to "omg d00d imma finish dis fo realz, yo".

If there is a contest thread in this forum, new people should be able to join and have a good time knowing that it's gonna go all the way.

Generally, it's always a good thing to check with a BBS-mod for approval and advice.

But by all means, it'd be awesome if you spent some time and remade this contest and made MORE of it! :)
