    Re: Programming competition.

    I was trying to come up with a way to indicate winners of such contests. An example of what I was trying to accomplish is on the Zyvxn post:

    http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=333547

    You'll see that the award is shown. This graphic is too big, but it is kind of a cool indicator. I'm not sure if this alone is enough to get people to enter a contest.

    Brad!

    I was 100% sure that Zyvxn is just an alter ego of yours. The Brad! signature "betrayed" you.

    Re: Programming competition.

    I haven't read the entire thread, but it's not impossible to organize an informal competition in places such as the chit-chat forum :shrug: . You can probably ask some of the members to be the judges of the competition.
    Here are the rules, you must obey them or the gender bender will get you.

    And if you ever think of posting without code-tags, the evil monkey will come after you.

    Re: Programming competition.

    Well if you look at the site, this is the code*guru* site.

    Gurus share knowledge with everyone for ratings or the fuzzy feeling.

    I think a competition is a *project* that would take alot of work.

    That is why we are codeguru, and they are codeproject!!!!

    We have our thing and code*project* has theirs.

    Although I would go for a sort of reality theme like codeguru island!
