Until Mizzie comes back and picks this up again, if you guys have questions about how to do something, please ask. I am always willing to help and I know @Eliavah is too.
Hey guys, finally back.
Computer died as soon as I got out of school, and it basically took a month to get it fixed twice, plus the few days of downtime inbetween (Couldn't just hop from one job to another xD).
I have to manage the forum and catch up on my CC before I head to Indiana. I haven't kept up since before Christmas, so I'm really behind and the internet there is super slow, so it needs to be started before I leave. This obviously means that this is on the backburner for the moment (especially because I want to launch my CC and I need my sims updated for what I have planned). This should be up fairly soon though.
I'm going to start organizing the new assignments/challenges, editing the old tutorials, and working on a few other things. Since there's not much to update until we get toward the later stages in the competition, this comp will be up probably within the next few weeks (traveling next week).
If you want to suggest an assignment/challenge, be a judge, or submit tutorials, please message me. Replies will most likely be slow since I rarely log onto here anymore, but I'll make sure to remind myself to check in. Best way to reach me is through my email (xmizoreyukiix@gmail.com) or through the new forum. http://simmetrydesign.forumotion.com/
Note: I'll be posting (or just updating this thread) the comp here and on the new forum, but my main focus, and first thing to update, will always be the new modeling forum thread. I suggest that, if you haven't already, to make your way over there and sign up. The EA forum is obsolete now for modeling. (Forumotion even has @ tagging too, and we can do more than EA would ever allow, including our own polls in the actual threads, and anything else we wanted added.)
@Eliavah@LeslieM25 (I miss you! We haven't talked in ages! ;-;) @xJojox: If you're still interested in judging feel free to message me. ^_^
Working on the updates to the thread, and working through the tutorials to check for outdated information and where to stick the new information.
Also, releasing a new tutorial. I can't believe I never thought to make this one. xD
If I'm fast enough, the comp should be open today or tomorrow. The newest tutorial will release either when the comp officially starts or if I finish it before then.
Going to make a new thread so everything isn't so clumped anymore. The challenges we started were added later and I wasn't expecting how much room they would take. xD
Will take longer than expected, but I'm still aiming for a release tonight or tomorrow; I don't want to have to push it back to next week if I can help it. Anyways, I have to do a major overhaul of Tutorial 2. I can't believe I thought it was acceptable to post it.
I also have to add in that new tutorial but it's going to be absolutely massive, so not only do I have to split it into separate tutorials but I also have to do more research than I've done before (it's not editing related). *Sighs*
The first half of the new tutorial shouldn't take long at all, but the rest will take ages. I'll make a decision on whether or not to wait for its release or to just open the comp and work on it through the two weeks of sign ups. The first half has to be released before the comp starts.
Moving the release date to around June 7th because that is the day after I arrive in Indiana. I think I'm a little too busy for the next few days, with packing, etc., to ensure it releases smoothly.
@pammiechick This is an open comp, so if you want to participate when you get back you still can, or you can sign-up now/after it opens since the dates you listed still work. I'm still doing the two weeks per assignment because I want this to be as laid back as possible, and so it isn't a huge time commitment for those who are in other comps.
I'll be keeping the sign-ups open for two weeks (this leaves time to do the mock), which means you could sign-up the day it opens and submit the mock, and then go on vacation. I keep the mock simple (so you could potentially finish it quickly) as it allows people to show me where they are at in editing/modeling. Knowing the current levels helps me organize the assignments/challenges better down the road.
Anyways, by the time you come back the scores and the first assignment will be released (the same day you come back or the day before). And the two weeks for the assignment gives you time to recover from your great vacation, and still allows you time to do your assignment!
Or you could just not sign-up (sign-ups are mainly for prizes ) and instead lurk and submit whenever you feel like it. The choice is yours.
I'll have more information released (extensions, what happens if you miss, etc.) when we get closer to the release date!
Oh awesome! I really want to do it, so I will participate when I can!!! And I can be fast, so initially, I'll get the first assignment in quick! And the mock.
The competition will be launching a little later than planned today due to life and its complications. It will be up today still, or posted first thing in the early morning. Unfortunately the internet here is also spotty, so until it can be repaired I'll be doing my best with what I have.
@Amazingamphy I would love to have you join again! *Claps* It's hard to contain my excitement for this comp. xDD
We are running at two weeks again since it is summer and everyone is going on vacation at some point or another, and has other obligations like competitions, and I still want this to be relaxed. I made some changes as to how extensions work though. You can read them when I release the new thread. ^-^
I can probably help you figure out what is wrong with Gimp. Do you want to message me about it?
I intend to lurker participate. Your information has been very helpful and your skill is unquestionable so I can't wait to learn more. Thanks for all your hard work!

Again, I apologize for the delay! No one told me we would be this busy before I arrived.
Gone from this place and never coming back. P5 is good
