    New campaign will start soon - linking the weekly activities!

    We will start a new project where the 4 weekly activities are linked to one big campaign!




    Go here for more info:

    And meanwhile, use this thread for discussion, talk etc, though further details will be released when the campaign actually starts...

    I like this idea. Should give people an added interest in the activities they don't normally take part in...and make it more fun in general. Count me in.

    Will all sections be more specific in the design? Like chow is now?

    it depends on the activity, but there will be definitely a description to all topics...

    Fozzy, should all four designs be featured in a single final image, or remain separate?

    I feel stupid If we enter 1 contest (i.e. ChOW), everything remains the same, except that ChOW would follow the same topic as all the others? And, then the "new world" created is a seperate contest or is it just a culmination of all of the winners?

    Sorry about my confusion.

    she has a point there...

    I'm a bit confused too... does it mean that those who join in have to compete in all categories (chow, cow, eow and idow)?

    would be an interesting idea if a deadline longer than one week is given (like it was with the puppetmaster challenge)...

    cheers,

    The activities are still seperate in terms of attendance, so you don't have to compete in all four, but the new campaign attemps to describe a setting in which all designs must fit, so as to unify the weekly design contests in a single world, non?

    Floris Didden summed it up pretty good...

    Actually there won't be a big difference in the flow of the weeklies...

    only change will be that we will have one general topic, let's say underwaterworld...the single weeklies would have subtopics like "mine seeking support ship" (IDW) or "huge mutated treasure guarding crab" (COW) etc...

    we will make this still 1 week, because we don't want to change the time frame, so that everything will continue as before, and really the thunderdomes are taking long enough...

    The created new world will be presented in an own thread, maybe more let's see

    oh, and you don't need to enter all weeklies, just enter one or more as you like...

    I hope this will clearify some points...

    alright to tag-team (collaborate to emphasize individual strengths)? might lead to some interesting synergies.

    Not enough entrants. I tried, but it was a half arsed effort that I am truly ashamed of.

    I was looking at movies like Aeon Flux, Equilibrium and one coming up soon, Ultraviolet. They all look the same, feel the same, and it just doesn't feel very different. If the Weekly Activity theme has something like that to push the scope of the visions of the future, it would be really cool.

    I was thinking the exact same.. as soon as I saw that the design of that building in Ultra Violet was the shape of a BioHazard symbol, I nearly threw up.
