Yeah I was looking at the old Dream Splashes and I saw that is how people entered. I also would rather have it here to get more traffic going here and hopefully some new, active members.

I will let you know what I'm going to do. I'm still unsure yet. Of course if others want to do traditional, count me in! If it's riding on what I do... I'll keep you posted!

You could always do multiple entries! I am thinking of writing a short fanfic of some kind. :)

That could be interesting. I'll see how time permits.

I hope the Guru statuses are revisited.

It's definitely time for a new casting of the three. That's on my agenda of "things to do."

I haven't been involved in the past with any of the guru choosing methodology, so I'm not sure how that works. I assume the mods just chat together in a private thread and decide who best embodies each category of Life, Reason, and Time?

I plan on spending several hours tonight getting the dates, rules, etc. in order. Entry will simply be created a new post under the Dream Splash VI subforum, along with proper titling. I hope to post it tonight.

Double post:

Here's what I am proposing for rules:

Quote
RULES:

1.) The contest begins May 1st, 2018 and runs until August 1st, 2018.
2.) You can use any character or setting from the franchise, regardless of source game.
3.) Any medium is welcome, just make sure you categorize it properly when submitting.
4.) If you use any sort of art component from another artist, please remember to credit them appropriately. For example, if you create a video and use a remixed song, please credit the remix author.
5.) With your submission, you must make a short description of your interpretation of the piece and how it applies to the Dream of Zeal.
6.) Multiple entries are not only permitted, but encouraged! You can also submit multiple entries in each category (although they would have to be entered individually).
7.) Have fun and keep the Dream of Zeal alive!

HOW TO ENTER:

The easiest and preferred method would be to post your submit here at the Chrono Compendium.

1.) If not already registered, please do so.
2.) Once in the forums, scroll down to Termina Esplanade - Special Events and Feedback and choose the subforum, Dream Splash VI [2018].
3.) Once here, choose to create a "New Topic." Please provide the title of your post and the category for which it is entered into. Also, in the message of the post, please post your submission along with a short descriptor indicating how it applies to your interpretation of the Dream of Zeal.

Please format the post appropriately, as such: INSERT TITLE HERE [CATEGORY GOES HERE].

For example, let's say I make a painting using oil-based paints. I can capture that however I see fit (photograph, computer scan, etc). This would fall under the 2D art category, so I would post it as:

Quote
The Fall of Magic [2D Art]

An alternate method of entry would be to submit to: <INSERT E-MAIL HERE> to be received by the Compendium's Boo the Gentleman Caller. He is an impartial forum member and not a judge of the content, and he will post it to the Compendium on your behalf with the proper format.

Just a reminder, but you can submit multiple entries in each category! Just make sure each submission is a unique forum topic.

JUDGING:

Judging will occur on or around July 31st, 2018 by a panel of five impartial judges, who may or may not be participants of the competition. If a judge is participating in a category in which they would also be judging, said judge will forgeo judging of that category by default.

CATEGORIES:

2D Art: This may be paintings, drawings, etc. (may be traditional or digital)
3D Art: This may be sculptures, videos, etc. (may be traditional or digital)
Written Word (Short Form): This may be poetry, fan fiction, or an article (less than 500 words)
Written Word (Long Form): This may be poetry, fan fiction, or an article (of equal to or more than 500 words)
Sound and Music: This may be remixes, original music related to the Chronoverse through lyrics, or music heavily inspired by the Chronoverse
Hacking and Interactive: This may be a ROM hack or interactive fan game via another means (ie, Java-based, RPGMaker, etc), may also be a fan-creation tool (such as a custom addon for Geiger's Temporal Flux)

Thoughts?

This should probably use topic/thread instead of post.

You should add something in there about multiple entries, including a note about multiple entries in the same category.

I'm now toying with three different ideas. Let's see how that works out.  :lol:

Good call out. I edited my post with the description.

Sounds like somebody's about to have a Game Jam!
