Photo Story Competition
Overview:
This is the Photo Story Competition. A new competition which you have to make a story with photos from Worms 4 : Mayhem. What do I mean? You must make a story but not with text, but with photos. Example, at the first photo a worm is moving, at the second it goes near an enemy worm and at the third it kills the enemy worm. You must make a story with photos and post it in the topic. The best photo story will win. You can post the stories until 30th June 2007. Then you won't be able to post another stories. In 10th July 2007, the best story will win. The rest people can vote which story is best by a poll to help me.
Rules:
"I won't accept photos from Worms 1, Worms 2, Worms 3D and the other versions. Only from Worms 4 : Mayhem."
"Maximum pictures are 5."
"You must give your story a name."
"You must not write text or explainings for your story."
"You must have a story with good and acceptable meaning."
"In the end of the competition, the winner who took part must write his/her e-mail to receive his/her memorial. The memorial for the losers will be linked in this topic."
"You must post your story until 30th June. I won't accept stories which will be posted after 30th June."
"If it's possible, post pictures with high quality, for the others to understand them."
"At 10th of July, the competition will end. Then the winner will have 10 days to write their emails to receive their memorials and the cups."
"You can post and another story. You can post maximum 3 stories but not more to leave room to others."
Prize:
There won't be prize for this competition. Just 1 memorial and 3 cups.
Winners:
The winner will be 1. He/she will get special memorials as well. Also the losers will get memorials.
Good luck!
Example:
Story name : Poor worm!

Well, you can make any story you want, but only with pictures.

Good story, but you must use only pictures. See my example. A worm is moving around the landscape, then he goes near an enemy worm, then he gets a baseball bat and he throws the enemy into the water. You have to use only pictures without text or meanings, so you must have a good meaning!

You're right, it takes a lot to load. But your story is great, excellent try!
Now I'm telling something to users who want to post their own story but they haven't posted it yet : I'm probably going to change the ending time of the competition. If I change it, I'll make it for the 20th June or earlier. So post your stories quickly!

Well, there are a lot of ways to take pictures in games. You can press Print Screen to take a picture and then paste it. You can use a camera as well. I'm using Fraps. (www.fraps.com) You can download it or buy it. I've downloaded it and the pictures have great quality. I recommend Fraps to take pictures. Then attach them in your post.

He appears to be afraid to show the names of his worms. I love it when they go flying too though. I posted a sort of guide on how to do screenshots in worms 4 mayhem in another topic.

I can't understand you. Which is the name? I must write it immediately, or I won't accept the story. Did you see the rules?
"You must give your story a name."
Please write it!

Basti@n
26 May 2007, 18:45
how do you take pics in game
Try this:
Edit carefully your "default.cfg" file on the Worms 4 Mayhem folder, then see that there is a "//ALLOWSCREENSHOTS" thingy, edit to "/ALLOWSCREENSHOTS", easy, no? Just remove a "/". :D Then press "Impr Pant (Pet Sis)*" and TADA! Check your W4M folder for a "Screen###.bmp" file.
*(Pet Sis) means that may include "Pet Sis" on the button, like mine.

Sorry, I didn't thought this is the name. But I don't think it's a valid name. You should call this story like " The high-flying worm" or something else. This name tells you like this thing more than over things in Worms 4 : Mayhem. If you want change the name or keep it.

Shockdude

CJH

McMaster

Can I post another one?
Well, I see I don't have many stories so you can write another one.
I saw in your competition that we can and another stories, so I'll post one and in your competition.
You can post and another story. I'll write it in the rules.

I can't understand you... what is the second mistake? And what's hyphon?????????? Please tell me...

CJH
19 Jun 2007, 17:27
I don't think its called a hyphon actualy, but this is the thing I was talking about: '
Well? Don't just stand there, fix it! Oh, and a Hyphon is something else. I think.:confused:
P.S. Never mind, just get rid of the "E".

CJH

"You must post your story until 30th June. You have a lot of time."
You may want to change the "you have a lot of time" part later.

McMaster
19 Jun 2007, 20:40
OK, I'll change these things. And you're right. I must delete the you have a lot of time.

McMaster
20 Jun 2007, 20:06
Well, from now you have 10 days to post your story. Time is going to end, so if someone wants to post a story, post it immediately!

McMaster
23 Jun 2007, 14:11
Please, post some stories, time is going to end and I need more stories!
Or I won't give some memorials because I have only 5 stories, and the memorials will be 5, so not all the persons who took part in the competition can be winners!

CJH
25 Jun 2007, 17:35
But won't some of them feel upset and left out? Oh, and how many days do we have now? Iv'e lost count.

McMaster
25 Jun 2007, 18:47
Well, we have 5 days... well, I want to tell you something you maybe don't know. If also your second story will win, you'll get two memorials. If you post and another story, and your stories will win in the first places, you'll get 3 memorials and all the cups. If and your another stories will be winners, you'll get and a second memorial, don't forget it! So, if you want to be an winner, it will be better posting more than one stories! (maximum 3) Remember it!

McMaster
29 Jun 2007, 09:49
Oh, we have only one day to end the competition. But I think we should have more days, because I have only 5 stories, and it can't be all the stories winners! Just I said in my previous post I won't give some memorials. Please, post a story, even 1 story resolves the problem! Post a story or I'll change the end date of my competition, or I'll close it!

CJH
29 Jun 2007, 19:16
Fine mister grouch.
Actualy no, I won't Ive posted more stories than anyone else so far. Why should I post another? Looks like your out of luck now, because no-one else cares! if you want to prove me wrong...well, you intelegent reader, know what to do.
why? well, I got better things to do. mainly f1: 2001.

McMaster
29 Jun 2007, 23:24
Well, I don't say you to post and another story, just if you want. Everyone can make and another stories, I tell you to make and another stories, just if you want to be winners easier. Maybe I'll change the ending date. The current date is today, (the previous day has passed for me) ending time 15:30. (in my time, time from Greece, I don't know if you have the same time zone, so sorry if you expect the competition end earlier [or later, depending your country]) You still have time to post your story, if you haven't still make it, you ave time to make it, and post it. Or I'll change the ending time.
Well, the competition ends soon, maybe the winner will be one, because I have to end the competition. Sorry, I had to do this, because I have only 5 stories. The winner will be one.

CJH
30 Jun 2007, 11:46
Can you add a poll to help you decide?
and if you can't get somone to make one[story], why don't you? oh, and when does the poll end? [or start?]

McMaster
30 Jun 2007, 12:06
I don't know how to do this. Maybe a moderator will help me.
The voting starts from 15:30 p.m. In my time zone.

CJH

press thread tools at the top. then press add a poll, and also open another window with this part in.

McMaster
30 Jun 2007, 12:52
Yes, I know hot to make a poll. I don't think I'll get more stories so I'll create it now! Especially on 15:00 p.m., only 8 minuites left!

McMaster
30 Jun 2007, 12:59
Time's out! Now the competition ends! You can't post a story anymore! People will vote until 10th July to make the best story the winner. You are free to vote!
Please vote, or I'll choose the story by myself!
Now Sudden Death entered!

What do you mean with themes?
So in first compeition add this theme, on the other this theam and others?
I'll try it in a future compeition, I say it again : I should have more stories in my compeition, so i don' have to make changes again!!!
