Rules for Challenges and Competitions

PLEASE GIVE ME ANY SCRUTINY OR IDEAS THAT I SHOULD INCLUDE FOR THESE, FEEDBACK VERY WELCOME!

Hey Guys! Now that I am a mod I get to do what I have always wanted to do... Challenges and Competitions!!!

This will be the first one in a series and as we go I will keep a running tab of them to add to the sidebar for people to check out when they come.

I am thinking we can start these every Tuesday or so depending on how many people are participating.

The Difference between Competitions and Challenges

Challenges will be fun little projects that can be used to get people thinking of different ways to solve problems with interesting constraints.

Competitions will be competitive events where people will put their coding skills to the test! A winner will be chosen from the entries and maybe... given a flair or something? I will think of what we can do.

Where to Post

For Competitions: Unless otherwise stated, submissions will be sent via PM to the judges of the competition.

For Challenges: Please submit all challenge posts onto the

Rules for Challenge and Competition Submission

Challenges: Here is what your post should preferably include. Again, I want to make challenges something that people can look through and get ideas on how to accomplish things and learn from other people.

• A little description about what your code does and maybe something cool or interesting that you figured out to accomplish the task

• Preferably pictures or videos/gifs of your endeavor

• Either a link to your code or some short snippets so people that want to replicate/learn from your scripts can do so.

Competitions: What to include in your submission will differ for each competition. These will ensure that there will be sufficient evidence of your completion of the task at hand.

• There will be some parameters that the competition will be based on. These will be specified per competition and should be included in your post.

• Pictures/video/gifs used as evidence to your work.

• Your full code in link or written form.

• If you would like, add a description of your code and anything cool you did.
