Welcome to the first Junior Member ONLY Competition! All JM are welcome to join, and i will be judging this competition. This competition has Wizzup?'s approval. :)

The rules are simple:

Rules

• You must work on your own
• However much you have completed must be handed in by the time limit. Even if you don't complete the script fully, you still have a (small) chance of winning
• You must use the SRL include
• You must make all of your own custom functions. You cannot take them from any other script even if you have permission. This means that the only procedures / functions you may use are the ones already in the SRL include, or ones that you make yourself
• No Reflection
• Once you have submitted a script, you cannot submit another one / edit your current one, so make sure you check it over thoroughly before submitting your entry

I may add / change the rules at any time, and i will warn you when i do. They won't be big changes though.

Extra Rules!
We have to make this competition fun now don't we? ;) So i decided to add a few extra rules to give some flavor to our scripts! I have wrote a list of various features that have to be included in your scripts!

• Selling in Rimmington General Shop
• Multiplayer
• Mining all 4 rocks (Tin, Copper, Iron, Gold)
• Possibility to use Pickaxe in Inventory or Equipped
• AntiRandoms
• AntiBan
• Progress Report

You will get 100 points for meeting all the requirements. 0 If you fail to meet even just one of them.

Script will be judged on:

• Technique
• Individuality
• Follow all SRL rules: i.e break out of potential infinite loops etc.
• Creativity
• Content
• Efficiency
• Presentation
• Meeting all Requirements (check: Extra Rules!)
• Added Extras

Prize
The prize will be SRL Members and the Competition Cup. Along with that also comes Respect and Reputation of the community.

Submitting your entry
Once you have finished your script, PM it to me so that others won't see your finished product until the end of the competition, and they can't steal your ideas! All scripts will then be posted up after the competition has ended.

Why should I enter?
Hopefully this will get you slightly motivated to create the best script you can, regardless of your standard. The more scripts you create the better you become: "Practice makes perfect". On top of that, when everyone has released their own versions of the script, you can compare yours to theirs and see what techniques they have used in their script: what works and what you can improve on. This will really help you improve your scripting skills.

In addition to comparing and contrasting with other scripts, i will also be commenting on each individual script, giving you tips on how it can be improved!

- If the you were a Junior Member at the start of the competition and then got accepted into members you are still entitled to win the Competition Cup and to have your script judged.

Thank You Wizzup?, Starblaster and Dr D. Dervish
