New LUA-Challenge (poll)

So the Staff and i have been thinking about a new Challenge and this is that we came up with

Quote
A debugging challenge would be interesting. ie Code that runs but has runtime errors requiring the programmer to debug and fix.
by yaustar

What do you guys think about this topic?


Hopefully we will get more members and grab the lua community attention so we can get the site hoping!

Note:
If you need more information im sure Yaustar and other staff will be able to help
Code:
If your interested in making the code for the challenge PM and ill share it with the staff.
Then the Staff and i will pick one.

(All members of the forums are able to make one, staff, reg-members, etc)


note:
Staff dont Pm your code, i made a post in the staff section for us to share the codes

It sounds fun, but is it going to be a competition because i don't see how that would work.

Re: New LUA-Challenge (poll)

I can't see how well this will work, most of the posts in the lua forums are from people who can't debug their own code. I'm not sure how a contest to debug something will go, its more exclusive than inclusive of the current crop of psp lua developers.

I think a better compo is something more well defined, like create a single level of a horizontal shooter or something. something like frogger. simple static screen + couple of sprites. something basic everyone can try and have a go at.

Re: New LUA-Challenge (poll)

Yeah i guess this failed.
The issue with df's ideas is that we mine as well make the challenge a "Make another game" challenge. Maybe lets pull something random like with the weather challenge. That was something very original.
Like make an Animation.
extensive calculations applications.
or!

edit. Too good to have here. i need to talk to the staff!
ilove this idea
