Re:Phrase contest!

[Oldbushie]

That contest is a little broad... I'll try it anyways, not sure if I can come up with anything amazing that is that short.

[Say]

people have been going insane proposing phrased! it may be abroad but im shocked the feedback it has had today!!!!! hahaha OMG SUBMIT YOUR PHRASE OR MANY PHRASES NOW! its really cool

this is going to be a though contest!

[Say]

omg koko, you will not believe the amount of submits we've had and we are talking about launching this contest today and to get over +10 in less than an hour , I've been sort of peaking myself but I'm currently working and sneaking in around here to see how things go, havent had time to see all the submit files and such

BUT OMG IM SO GLAD EVERYONE IS EXCITED WITH THIS so are we, believe us, Neil and I were happy as hell when we said again after 3 days of work nonstop aka gather everything to put it together and stuff... "SO THAT'S IT?!"  "OMFG THATS IT!!" lol we just love it when we do updates now (the monthly updates)

[koko_99_2001]

Well,

this game is for you guys, so the more imput we can get from you, the better!

Thanks for the kind words

[Say]

pr and web have developed a lot featured for you to get closer to what the whole team and project is about, for example the online auditions, the forum enhancement, the games, the contest, you pick it, there are always ways to reach us and not even so but also participate, hang around and enjoy we will try to bring you always cool stuff

[Say]

its not random, its general

I cant give you specifics of what is it going to be used for, time, moment, and such cuz it will ruin completly the feature, as well the surprise of the game.

It is about being spontaneously creative, it has to be kq related and even more if you believe it could suit us. You still have a month to figure it out.

Heh, fair enough I guess. I suppose I'm just being selfish in that all my creativity is of the "problem solving" variety, meaning I need a goal to work from/towards. If you said like... I dunno... "We need something that sounds like a marketing slogan," or "We need something that sounds like part of a magic spell,"  or "We need something a townsperson would say,", I could do that no problem. But I can't think stuff up just "out of the blue".  

Plus, there's a difference between something that will be for dialogue, something that will be a narrator description, something that will be part of an item, etc.

In short, too... many... choices! Ack!

Peace & Luv, Liz

Not sure if you guys can do this, as there may be so many entries, but...

Would it be possible for you all to send a one-line comment on our submissions perhaps? Just to give an idea of how much you like it, no need to rate it out of ten or anything.

No marketing slogan, no spell, no dialogues, no narrations, and try to be creative as in funny or original

we are waiting for the time of the contest to be over to review them all, I must say ppl! its though one AND there has been a lot of entries, you still have time

and dont worry I will keep you all informed about the progress of it

[KatieHal]

If it makes you feel better, Jeysie, I don't know what it's going to be used for either ;-)

[Yonkey]

There's been about 25 entries so far!    Some were really funny, some were like... WTF?  But overall the entries are really great!

Plus only one of them had an invalid e-mail address!  Woo!  But it's ok since his phrase made no sense anyway.  

[KatieHal]

who judges these things anyhow?

haha, i forget if team members were excluded from the contest, but I figure I'll keep out..I already put enough phrases in the script as is  

[Say]

On the phrase contest team members can participate, and as far as I know project directors are the one going to pick it, aka cesar and rich. If you want you can participate, its a matter of creativity anyhow. It has to like Cesar AND Rich, though.

[Say]

the game contest on the other hand its my call, the better the highscores are the happier I will be and the better the surprise will be  

anyhow I will explain further in the game thread

[Oldbushie]

Oh! I see!!!

So this phrase would be like an easter egg of sorts like in KQ3 where you can peek behind the tapestry or in KQ4 where you see a message in a bottle from KQ3.

Oh yeah, and Say, when the contest is over you'll show us the top 50-100 right? Except for the one that won, of course.

[Say]

you guys want me to show the other close ones to win?, hence they may wont be used I guess I could, I'll think about it.

[ilkilk]

When it says name Dose it mean user name or Real name

[Yonkey]

Real name.  Since we'll be adding you to the credits if you win.
