Task

Your task in this contest is to design a Single Player Scenario within the "Horror" genre. The idea behind the contest is to push the limits of AOK to provide fun and scares for this years Halloween!

Rules

- Must be a Single Player Scenario
- One entry per person
- Mods are allowed but must be easily installed/unistalled

Judging

Your scenario will be rated by a panel of judges in the following categories:

- Entertainment - How fun was the scenario to play, did it provide scares?
- Story - How spooky and interesting was the story?
- Map Design - How much did the map design contribute to the horror?
- Overall Atmosphere - How spooky was the overall atmosphere? This includes use of triggers and sound effects.

Each category shall be graded out of 10 and your scores in each category will be added up to give a total score. An average of your total score between the Judges will be calculated and the person with the highest average score at the end shall be crowned winner!

Results are in!

1st Place - Demon Town - by dragonslayermcmx
With 65 points out of 80.

2nd Place - Vosgian Travel - by fr steve
With 60 points out of 80.

3rd Place -Bram Stoker's Dracula - by HockeySam18
With 47 points out of 80.

I'd like to thank all the entrants for taking the time to make these scenarios and I had a lot of fun playing all three of them. I'd also like to thank panel for all the input he's put it and for taking the time to judge the entries too.

This is the first contest I've done so it's been a bit disorganised but I think it's turned out pretty well. The entrants did a really good job considering the short deadline.

Thanks for extending!

Just a question, since I come closer to end : when I finish my mission, I submit it with HHC in its name, and that's all, or must I do something else?

I think just having HHC in the title would be fine, unless anyone thinks otherwise?

i think in other competitions of this kind (the MGC I participated in for instance), you were allowed to submit and even update your file until the deadline. While the judging took place however, you were not allowed to update.

I think that would work here too. It is up to Scibadi to decide in this case though.

i will maybe sent an entry, but dunno how long it will take to finish it...
Currently working on:

Modern Warfare (Mod): 10%
I changed the plans for it, i'm now making some kind of near-future mod that keeps the main structure and tree of AOK. 5 civs with 2-3 UUs planned for now.

Sign me up, please. Sorry for the short notice, but all the same, I am almost finished my entry. It is a remake of the Dracula legend, merging the life of Vlad Tepes and Bram Stoker's novel.

@Devestator - Try your best, man

@fr steve - woohoo!

@HockeySam18 - Awesome, I'll add you to the list

Guys I will try and set a deadline for the judges as well, I don't want to be too tight but then again no one wants to wait long for results. Let me know what you think.

Ahhh well I can't get my entry out in time so you can take me off the list.
Things have been hectic these past two months. Once break starts for me, I can finally do some editing.
Hope the rest of the competitors manage to get one in!

I'm all in favor of that, though I think it's best to see how many entries we have first. 2 entries could be judged pretty quickly, but 5 for example would be a different thing.

Although i am still heavily into designing, i won't make it to submit my entry tomorrow. I would be really grateful if you could give me until the 27th or 28th Perhaps it will even be finished before then.

Would people be OK if I extended the deadline until the 28th so that Devastator can get his submission in? I know it kind of negates the point of having the deadline but I don't want to leave him out after he's spent effort on his scenario.

Hmm, to the looks of it there will only be two entries... Meaning we have double the amount of judges... Eh.

EDIT: It appears I'm in a fix... To play Frsteve's scenario, I'll need mod pack studio, which my computer fails to install. Now what?

Dementor, the deadline will probably be extended a few days more. So get cracking.

@ Lord Sipia: is it because you have a 64 bit system? that's the problem I'm dealing with. I need to wait until I get to a 32 bit one.

Yeah, it is. Since it's not likely I'll get a new system or something any time soon, I think I'll have to bail out... Sorry.
