New Contest

Submitted by arkiver on Thu, 2008-03-13 16:49. Community (Open)

For details go here...

Or I'll just repost them here.

So… a challenge to the community. To help rewrite the definition of Synchronicity, for all those new visitors out there. This will be the Arkive’s new contest.

Details:

  • You can use what I reposted as a “seed” if you’d like, or you can come up with your own version.

  • Submissions can be in any format, any length, and must be made by April 20th, to arkiver@xnet.com.

  • Looking for this to be informative and complete for people new to the hobby, well-written (although I can do some clean-up on a submission that’s got a good core).

  • I’ll do 2 runners up and a winner, with prizes (TBD).

Are you up to the challenge?

I'd give it a go. But is it

I'd give it a go. But is it just definition or is it more? For example, you've got definition, history, and how to do it in the current link.

I've one secret, I'm not here.

it can be...

whatever you think would be an improvement over what I originally came up with. My goal with keeping it sort of undefined is to encourage creativity when it comes to approach. But I suppose undefined is leaving it too vague, which then creates its own problems. So my primary goal with the contest then is to get a new definition, which would include a little bit at least on how to "do" a synch. The history stuff is probably more in depth, and so could be dropped pretty easily.

Hope that answers the question... glad to hear that you're interested.

peace,

frustrated?

I'm hoping that this might help the community help me update the Arkive a bit... and I will definitely be putting up a decent prize, kinda along the lines of the "non-copyright" synch contest I did, although there I didn't do runners-up...

I'd figured on Arkive tees for the runners up, and maybe a gift cert for Amazon for the winner... but haven't locked that in yet, which is why it still says TBD.

peace,
