Today begins the Interguild Olympics. It's an enormous tournament that we're holding that spans through all games.  The Interguild Olympics (IO) will begin today on Saturday, July 4th (also U.S.'s Independence Day), and all rounds will end four weeks from now on Saturday, August 1st.

We've organized the rounds similarly to the real olympics: there is an array of different events and you are free to participate in whichever ones you choose. It is not mandatory that you join every single round. There are a total of 9 rounds in the Interguild Olympics, but instead of releasing them all at once, we've divided them up to be released gradually. Every Saturday, we'll release new rounds until all nine rounds have been set up. This way you won't feel overwhelmed by the large number of categories, and also to give us an excuse to keep the IO updated throughout the month and to ensure that no one forgets about it. I'm also aware that 4 weeks still may not be enough time for some people, so keep in mind that it is possible that the IO end date may be extended by a week if we ever need the time.

Each round will be judged individually, and then we'll also hand out awards for overall categories, such as "most creative entry" for example. We'll also give an award to the Champion of the IO, which is for whoever wins the most rounds.

Interguild Olympics 2009: Week One
The first rounds for the IO are:

We actually decided to break up the HATPC category into two separate groups, because HATPC is definitely the biggest game on the site, and there will probably be more than enough levels made throughout the month.
Large HATPC Levels
-Make the best HATPC level you can, but it must be larger than 60x60 (or more precisely, contains an area larger than 3600 tiles)
Small HATPC Levels
-Make the best HATPC level you can, but it must be smaller than 30x30 (or more precisely, contains an area smaller than 900 tiles)
Best N Levels
-Make the best level you can in the game: N.
Best Freestyle Video
-Basically make a video that isn't a walkthrough (and it must be related to the Interguild too).

I won't enter a HatPC level at least, that's for sure. Maybe, I will enter a N level, and maybe, I will do some non-walkthroughs videos.

UPDATE: three rounds of the IO have been deleted: Shift Levels, SMF Levels, and the Other Platformers round. We didn't need them anyway.

I mentioned this earlier, but you didn't listen? The Comp page of the IO doesn't show the rounds, now that they've ended.

So, how is the judging going. I have a hunch that nobody did yet.

We've judged about 50%. Don't worry.
