[JeffZugale]

Sheesh I might actually be able to get it done now... heh.

[notpill]

Wow, thank you! Really really greattt!

[Mibus]

Very official. We knew that many of you wanted more time, especially with the deadline so soon after the break. If you're finished, just look at it as more time to polish :)

I'm sending the emails today.

[ScottC]

So whens the next challenge ? ;)

[Mibus]

Let's not even talk about that until this one has finished :)

[walrus]

Absolutely!

[wcraig]

Does anyone know when the winners will be announced?

[Mibus]

No. Typically, it's 2-4 weeks after the close of the challenge.

[Randis]

It was said that the deadline was extended but i cant join the challenge? Isn't there anything that can be done?
Please, i just came back from holidays...

[Nazirull]

Sorry man...its closed...the dateline was on the 31st january. Obviously its way too late to do anything now.

[Randis]

I see, ok, nevermind. next time then...

[tanktony]

Hello Mibus,

8 weeks ago and i think everybody to feel keenly. Please tell us where we can see results of this event?

[tlggungor]

I agree to When when I?????? :bounce::bounce::rolleyes:

[Mibus]

Very soon now :)

[SweD]

aaaah great to read that, thanks Mibus.

I've a question of general order for the challenge, maybe it isn't time to ask that, but never know...
For this challenge, sections have change from 2d/3D to illustration/3d model/trailer.
Does CGtalk keep this configuration for others now ?

[mmoir]

Mibus,

I am looking forward to the results, when you say very soon are you talking hours or will you say something like " The results will be available March 22".

I would also would like to know about the format of the next challenge, but I am sure we will find out in time.
Good luck to everyone entered.

[Mibus]

I think it's likely that we'd keep the new categories.

As for winners... we're close. Quite close.

[NinjaA55N]

hahaha.. quite close :D Im constantly refreshing the page every 5 minutes for the last week :D

[Mibus]

Ah, but then you'd miss the pretty feature article I'm proof-reading... ;)

[Mibus]

Spoiler from the soon-to-be-released article...
Film is in to stay. Story board, live action, 3D. the results show that our community can create the best in any format. We are going to have to refine how we structure the challenges and find ways to better support the cinematic talent out there. With such a diverse range of potential categories, we have our work cut out.

[NinjaA55N]

oh come on Mibus, u r just too cruel! u know that we r all gonna click that spoiler, haha.. well, patience is a fine virtue they say... Im going to mountains to meditate until the article is fully revealed :D

[Blachart67]

[walrus]

Proof-reading? Pfft! Computer art nerds don't care about propper grammar and speeling. Call it done, and then tell us who won! :)

[mmoir]

[Mibus]

The next challenge is in pre-planning, but let's take a few days to bask in the warm glow of winning entries first :)

[Istmo]

"The next challenge is in pre-planning..." hehe, you don´t stop working. Cool:thumbsup:

One question, sorry but I don´t know the meaning of "Digg". I clicked the button but I don´t know the meaning of this term haha.:D

[Istmo]

Ok, I just discover today what "Digg" is:)

[doffer]

@Mibus:
Any news on the up-comming challenge?

Don't take it the wrong way. I can hardly imagine the amount of work you guys puts in challenges like the past ones, but it sure would be exciting if a new one was close :)

[Mibus]

No news. Things are still in the earlier* stages, but progressing smoothly so far.


* Depending on how you define "earlier". :)

Mobius one might think you were dropping a hint of some sort.

It might has something pre-historic to it.

[Nazirull]

After a CGChallenge like Eon, u guys deserve a break.....but dont ferget to come back! :beer:

[MrHobby]

Will there be another trailer catagory? The last one seemed to be extremely popular.

[doffer]

Hmm... I liked the old contests better :)
Thought EON was confusing :D

@Mibus:
Sounds cool :)

@Nazirull:
Might be reading a bit to much into it, but it would be a cool subject though ;)

[Darksuit]

Any news on the next challenge?

[Mibus]

Not yet :)

[eddieellis]

what about now ? :)

[adonihs]

how about now??

:*) Soon i hope. I just got a new iMac and I want to rape it with this new contest.

sooner the better! cant wait guys!

[paperclip]

Just finished all my exams, packed up, ready for the summer! Right about now would be a perfect time to start the challenge. Actually, this weekend would be just about ideal. How about it? :)

[Mibus]

See now this is why you should all read my blog (http://mibus.cgsociety.org/blog/) ;)

[adonihs]

[eddieellis]

Well its looks like the Eon challenge has been archieved, so it must be pretty close :)
