Contest: Coding Battles Topic Poll
« on: August 02, 2012, 08:16:53 am »
Please vote here for your favorite ideas for the coding battles contest. For more information on the contest go here http://ourl.ca/16662/312138
This poll will run for 3 days then whatever topic is winning will become the topic for the first Coding battles. If anyone believes that any of these should have a different time limit then 3 weeks please say so.



My guess is that snake and tetris could be done in 10 days
i would also guess the IRC bot for managing channels could be done in a week
Otherwise I think 3 weeks would be reasonable development time for the rest
I currently don't do much, but I am a developer for a game you should totally try out called AssaultCube Reloaded download here https://assaultcuber.codeplex.com/

Can we vote even if we won't participate to the contest (I don't know any computer language :-\) ?
I own: 83+ ; 84+SE ; 76.fr ; CX CAS ; Prizm ; 84+CSE
Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.

May you enter something that you started before the contest began? (or reuse parts of some old code you coded)

EDIT: I can't change what I voted for D:

@stevon8ter me neither I was hoping for a team so I dont have to spend all my time on it.

No you do not have to compete to vote this is supposed to represent what the community as a whole thinks the contest should be on.

EDIT: I dont see any way to change it so that people can revote you might want to ask an admin how to do that.

I voted :w00t:

Would it be possible to have maybe three votes. Like the top two or three ideas you'd like to see?

It's somewhat difficult choosing just one :P

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...

I'll change it to two votes and maybe if two are tied/close both can go. though I think that might bet chaotic.

EDIT: nvm I dont see how to change it without resetting the poll so it will stay like this for this time

Eh, I think we'd just have to choose one or the other in case of a tie. I could whip up a quick randomizing program in case of a tie.

I like the idea of a bot that plays games. I would participate in that.
