I actually think that would be a highly interesting and amusing competition, if only we had more programmers around here, and someone with a computer they don't care about... I was thinking we could have a few restrictions, like you're not allowed to 1) Permanently delete any files; 2) Cause any damage we can't fix. It would of course be judged by the victim on comedy, creativity and effectiveness.

That actually sounds like a very good idea I'm actually being serious here, it certainly would be tongue-in-cheek to say the least!

Maybe if we passed source code around rather than actual files, I might be willing to run the competition, but I doubt in TWC's ability to produce enough entries. |

Stay away from my computer, you dirty criminals! As long as you use someone else as a victim, it will be fine though ![]() But I know you won't use anyone else

Hey, if you ask me, it could be 1) A good way of learning/practicing programming. 2) A good way of learning about malware and how to get rid of it. 3) A bit of a laugh.

If you seriously think you can do it, then maybe we can find someone with a computer to sacrifice? I think Sebastian's is pretty old. He might be getting a new one soon...so there might be an opportunity |

I am tempted to write a descriptive peice. But I am tempted to judge aswell. |
"Should you ever feel agony for the loss of your Brothers due to enemy guns, bear through it with a stern smile and let your enemy know that you will get into combat soon enough. His judgement cannot be avoided! Should your charge falter under heavy resistence, roar your devotion in His name and amount whatever strength you have left at one enemy point and crush it utterly! Let the enemy feel your pain by turning their's into agony! Should you lay beaten and dying on the field, laugh with pride for even in death our enemies will fear us, leave them with a scar that will haunt them till the time of their retribution!" - Chaplain Valorus | |

Dude, I've mentioned three things: 1) No deleting files; 2) No causing irreparable damage; 3) We could judge on source code and not actually run it, or check the source code to make sure it isn't going to break the first two points, and then test it. I think the main problem is getting enough entries. I know I can do this, but who else here can? |

Well, it should be someone who doesn't want to enter. And I certainly want to enter the writing competition. |

I agree with Louise Right, I just think we should have a literature competition. Doesn't matter what format it is - poem, haiku, story, whatever... - just as long as its our own composition, and the best wins. Kind of an open category. Maybe.

How about a caption comp, like we had on the spaceport. Even I won one of them. And if I can get my friend to join, he is a programmer guy, so he would participate in the virus thing. Only problem is getting him to join. |

It would be too hard to judge poems and short, 50-word stories against a 3000-word piece; they're completely different. |
