HATPC Comp #30 - Random Word 2
This comp has already ended and has been judged.
Start Date: Sunday, Jun 14, 2009
End Date: Saturday, Jun 27, 2009
Game: Only HATPC content is allowed

Competition Rules:
It's the 30th comp! And the theme is a revival of Comp 14, which was the original Random Word Comp. Basically the idea is to pick a random word out of the dictionary, make that your title, and then base a level on it. But also don't just make a random cave and then slap the name on it, because the name should at least make sense for the level somehow. And don't be so hardcore as to just pick the first word you find, especially if you don't like it. Look around a bit until you find something you can use. Also, this time you can pick multiple words if you want and use them to make some crazy phrases.

Have fun with this comp.

Final Results:
2nd: canadianstick... (HATPC) - Quirvy
4th: No Title (HATPC) - sinpokman
3rd: Plasma (HATPC) - krotomo
1st: Potpourri (HATPC) - jazz

The judges will likely factor in the word used for their results. A person using 'polymerous' will in general receive a higher rating than a person using 'water'.

So far no one's announced that they're entering, so I will.

The word I'm using? "canadianstick..."

You can't put dots in titles, so there goes that idea.

If you choose that the judges will most probably rate your cave lower due to the bad choice of word. Choosing 'evil' is like choosing 'water'.

Edit: and now it failed.

outmanoeuvre is a superpotentiallyawsome name :O:O
i never learnt how to pronounce that word.

guys, try the word, 'poison'. it's an awsome potentially water thingie. make it murky water, and let the water rise.

I decided to give my cave the name "Excess". Its currently 98% finished and its still on paper.


I don't really care if its too evil or easy. I just want to enter a comp.

Was the cave 99% done or was the computer 99% done?
