Edifice Rex is holding a Vehicle Contest!
In anticipation of the opening of the Ivory Tower Library of Primitives new vehicle scripting tutorial, Edifice Rex is holding an August Vehicle Competition!
Here are the details: Please Read Carefully!
1. Vehicles must be original, but they don't necessarily have to have been made for this competition.
2. Entries do NOT HAVE to be scripted. Don't let the feeling that you can't script a good vehicle keep you out of the running. Just build the model and enter it.
3. You may submit a team-built entry, you don't have to have done this all by yourself. All members of the team will share the same prize (multiple copies of trophies and shared shop space in Kitschwood Heights Plaza in Noyo for one month.
4. Entries must have no more than 31 prims, which is the maximum for a physical vehicle. Entries will be placed on Ivory Tower Library of Primitives land in Natoma. They will be viewed there by judges and the public. Awards ceremonies will be held here
5. Entries may be any kind of vehicle, from bicycle to Apollo Lunar Lander...or something straight out of your imagination that defies all normal classification of vehicles. Feel like making a flying vehicle out of the feathers of angels' wings? That's great! A toilet on wheels is also perfectly acceptable. There...we've gone from the sacred to the profane in the range of categories!
6. Only one submission per competitor...don't enter eight or nine vehicles, you'll make the judges think you can't make a decision!
7. Of course you may incorporate sounds and particle effects into your vehicle!
8. Entrants must give their entries to Lumiere Noir so that he can set them to the group that owns Ivory Ivory Tower land, which is a closed group. Set them no copy/no modify...and transfer if you like, so that he can return them to you at the end of the competition and you will be assured that he has no copies of your work afterward.
9. You may, as a competator include a vendor that will sell your vehicle. This must also belong to Lumiere Noir, but set it so that all the money goes to you!
10. Winners get the following prizes: First, second and third prize trophies. In addition, first prize winners will receive a month long slot in Lumiere Noir's Kitschwood Heights Plaza in Noyo.
You may decorate your shop as you like, and use up to 64 prims in decoration and vendors. After the month is up, you will be allowed vendor space (5 prims) in the mall for a period of time (actually until we start to totally run out of prims, which might be a good stretch of time...or not! More than a month anyway).
11. There are three levels of competition: Experienced Builder, Beginning Builder and Avatar Maker. Lumiere Noir and members of Edifice Rex will make the judgement on who is experienced and who is a beginner. This is because some residents of Second Life have played for years and never started making things until recently. Some residents of Second Life have just started and are already incredibly advanced. Newbies often get the best ideas because they don't know it can't be done yet, so they do it and succeed!
12. As mentioned above, your entry can be an avatar! Don't have any interest in making a vehicle? Design a vehicle related avatar wearing a racing outfit, or perhaps a spacesuit (Alien avatars are welcome in this stage of the competition). Ladies and gentlemen in full Victoran riding kit are not only welcome, they are encouraged to come forth! Entered a vehicle and also want to take part in the avatar competition? Knock yourself out, buddy!
