**************************************
Due to the long hours spent working on the program for Moria, we have had
no time (or talent) to create pictures for the game. Thus, we have decided
to once again do what no other public domain game has ever done before.
Run a Moria art contest! There were two winners in our first contest. The
picture that comes up at the beginning of Moria was sent in by Peter Gage.
The picture that appears when you enter the dungeon was sent in by Vaugn
Reavis and Nat Stillmaker.
The game needs three more pictures to enhance it's playability. One
picture for the town, one for when you die, and another, for the very
unlikely event that someone might win. Three prizes will be awarded, one
prize for each of the above categories (town, death, winning). The prizes
will be $25.00 and your name in the credits for the game. (Total prize
money is $75).
How it Works:
1. You read the rules (This step is optional but highly recommended).
2. You draw (or digitize) a picture of your own creation.
3. You send us a disk(s) with a COPY of your picture(s) on it (stored in
IFF form (not pasted to the side)) by June 1st. A self-addressed
stamped envelope (SASE) sent along with your picture disk will ensure
the return of your disk(s).
4. We judge the art and decide which is best (by June 10th).
5. If you win, we mail you $25.00 and your disk(s) along with Moria 4.0.
6. If you lose, and have sent a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE)
with your picture disk, we will mail you your disk(s) along with
Moria 4.0.
7. If you lose, and did NOT send a SASE, we keep the disk(s).
Rules:
1. All pictures must be original (we don't want to be sued for putting
it in Moria) material. Digitized pictures are fine IF, they are from
original materials (NO Frazetta rip offs).
2. All pictures must be on a 3.5" disk in IFF format (Deluxe Paint, Photon
Paint, DigaPaint, AegisImages, IntroCad, ...).
3. Pictures will be released as part of the public domain game "Moria"
(Version 4.0).
4. If no pictures are received for a given category (Town, Death, Winning)
then no prize will be awarded for that category. (Who would we give it
to?). Note: no prizes were awarded in our first contest for the death
or winner pictures because we did not receive any entries.
5. We reserve the right to replace any or all pictures in versions of Moria
released after December 1, 1989. (We may want to run another contest).
6. Enter as often as you like.
Judges:
1. Richard Henderson
2. Chip Flemming
3. Bryan Henderson
These judges were picked because they created and payed for the contest.
Criteria:
1. Appropriateness for one of the three pictures in Moria (Town, Death,
or Winning). (Hint: A picture of your favorite car is probably not
going to fit in the Moria motif.)
2. Artistic content as viewed by the judges. We're going to pick the
pictures that look the best.
3. If you are a single female, a picture of yourself and a telephone
number may influence Bryan or Chip.
4. Bribes will be accepted.
