This Week's New Rounds:

IO 2010 Pentathlon Round 2 - Write a Blog
Duration: One Week: Friday, July 9th --- Friday, July 16th
Rules: This week, you have to write a blog post! It can be about anything that is somehow linked to the Interguild. For example, you might want to write a guide, or comment on a certain design pattern for levels, or try to persuade more people to see the awesomeness behind a certain game, or reminisce about past Interguild events/times. Be creative. To enter your post into this competition, either mention somewhere in your post that it's for this comp, or post about it in the comments of this news post. Note: It must be a completely new blog post. Even if it was made after the IO started, it will not be accepted if it was made before this round started.

IO 2010 - Hurdles (Platformer Games)
Duration: Two Weeks: Friday, July 9th --- Friday, July 23rd
Rules: Basically, in this round, you can only submit levels for games under the Platformers category, and like the Puzzles round, you get two weeks. Also, unlike past Platformer comps, big games like HATPC and N are allowed.

IO 2010 - 100m (Speed Levels)
Duration: Three Weeks: Friday, July 9th --- Friday, July 30th
Rules: Just like last year's speed category, make a level that involves speed, or fast user input, or something like that. Bleh, you guys should know what a speed level is.

IO 2010 - Tennis (Collaborative Levels)
Duration: Four Weeks: Friday, July 9th --- Friday, August 6th
Rules: CSD told me to call this round "Relay Race", but we already have "Hurdles" and "100m", so do we really need another running sport? And besides, "tennis" is a cool reference to the old CaveMaking Tennis topics. You can enter any kind of level into this category, as long as it was made by at least two different people. But here's another twist: since each team has to have at least one entry in every round, their entry in this round must be a "team collab", with every member of the team contributing to it (unless a member is simply unable to participate). This category is still open to any individual collabs, as well.

so far we have five entries in the Pentathlon round. I've decided to just assume that any blog posts made since the start of this round were made for the round.

anyway, the rest of us have a little over two days left to make our entries before the round closes on Friday night, Interguild Time.

Would I be able to have an extension as I have a broken arm and am away from my usual computer. I wanted to make a knytt stories blog of how to build visually pleasing levels, but without screenshots from home it wont work... Also typing speed and clarity is reduced. I can start though if you want me to prove I am working on it.

It depends on how long it'll take you to finish. If you can finish before around this time next week, then the judges could always postpone the posting of results so that we can take your blog into account. Plus, the puzzles category will be ending this week, so we can always judge that first.

I'll try and get done by then. I'll make a start tonight anyway. Is there a way you can save some of it to the site without publishing?

I wrote a blog? I intended to write level 4 for the comp... but it appears that I got a round to it a little late? You're still gonna let me enter, right Livio? I mean, you own us all extensions after what we let you away with back in the collab comp.

since you posted it both here and the chatbox, i think I'll do the same: sure, since the judges haven't even thought about starting yet
