I'll participate since CURSE 1 (LOCAA's 4th contest) is due sometime in late October and since I'm a judge rather than a participant. Should make me do something other than Pok?DigiDanmaku for a while. ^_^

still new to touhou and this forum, is this a danmaku making contest?

if so, is making danmaku with something other than damafuku allowed?

btw, how do you change avatar and sig here? I can't find it. @_@

Kimidori, welcome. It is a danmaku making contest in Danmakufu 0.12m and ph3. Not sure if Drake intends on sway to other programs, as documentation is already quite hard as it is.

I'm interested in joining this but my Danmakufu skill is really low (just started playing Touhou this week and did some experiment with Danmakufu) and I'm more comfortable to work on program I'm familiar with.

I haven't done Danmakufu in a long time, this might be interesting. Should we discuss here the ideas for rules, required design ,etc. For this?

e: Miplouf, a banned MoTK member, would like to enter but he is unable to post in this thread, or the future sign-up one. Is it okay if I (or someone from the Dnh skype group we're in) can PM OP his entry?

I think Drake will decide. And remember about Mirans and Mip.

To all the new people rolling in, we don't do sign up based contests. That makes things only complicated, the way it flows is that the hoster provides the rules, conditions and possible resources. From that point on it is feel-free-to-participate style. If you notice the previous contests there is hardly any sign up.

Sign ups are boring and only provide noise and unnecessary administration. We prefer low-barrier and easy-going entry for any participant. ゆっくりしていってね!

Also no need to feel intimidated. Healthy competition is not only fun, but also makes people learn from each other.

Regarding banned members, like their regular scripts, they are allowed to partake in the contest though details have to be discussed on how to post their scripts. I cannot find solutions for that now until Drake has summoned the contest thread. I'll get back on this.

I find these rather are more "Let me show you what I can do!" contests than  "I WON WOOO!" contests. No need to be intimidated~

It's a great way to see what others can do. Learn from their scripts, and use your newly knowledge in your next scripts.
This will be fun. It will also bring more activity to the danmakufu forum. Which is always nice.
What to you think Drake will think of in the restrictions.
Bullet types and colors?
Number of attacks?
I can't wait. Since I'm finally back on my desktop after my six week vacation. But since school is starting up, can the date be a little bit father back than average?

Oh wow, this is so cool. I've always wanted for there to be a resurgence of this kinda thing.

I like danmakufu scripting, but  I always can't think of ideas. Restrictions foster creativity~

I always wanted to participate in one of the contests that occurred way back when I was still a nub at Danmakufu (and before I joined this forum), so I'm excited to finally get to take part in one. :D

It will be an honor to compete against the vets of Danmakufu contests who inspired me to first take up Danmakufu in the first place.  Good luck to everyone!

Well considering most of us do script in Danmakufu, yes. Again though,
I find these rather are more "Let me show you what I can do!" contests than  "I WON WOOO!" contests.

I'll certainly be watching warmly. The tea can wait a bit though.

just to answer before i actually post anything

Miplouf, a banned MoTK member, would like to enter but he is unable to post in this thread, or the future sign-up one. Is it okay if I (or someone from the Dnh skype group we're in) can PM OP his entry?
I'm running the contest, not OP. But yes, he's welcome to enter even if he's banned. The same goes for Kyuu. As long as someone can get their script posted, then whatever.

is making danmaku with something other than damafuku allowed?
Aw, it's Danmakufu only?
I thought about this a bit, but I'm going to say DNH only, because one main point of the contests is to provide people with a bunch of open examples of their scripts, stuff they can look at and learn from. While I think it's great if you use a different language or engine and normally I wouldn't discriminate, entering the contest with that doesn't really contribute much for any of the other members. You're still welcome to make something and I could judge it, but it won't be ranked as an actual entry. Sorry.
