Hurry up with the assignments (i'm going to miss this somehow aren't I).
Very soon.
Also a suggestion! I wanna see more of those cool videos where people record their mapping and then speed it up to insane speeds
like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAvjb0T6dQU and (the classic) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntsr1BTsT3U

I'd love to know how to record 72 hours of mapping without filling up my 1TB hard drive.

Record it with livestream and save your broadcasts (not locally, but on your stream.) If you download them later they'll be compressed quite a bit.
A small update to point scoring system:
- Point scoring awarded to top 33% (previously 25%).
The 25% cutoff was very harsh when there was a low number of entries (<6). It's not a big change, but something I've been thinking about the past couple of days!
I have the excel document of doom. And it tells me this was a necessary edit.
In reality, it means 1 more person gets a point per assignment. (not entirely true, but it's the easy to understand explanation).

Would have entered, but was on vacation. Oh well, looks like since very few people entered, I will still have a chance in the overall competition.
Rav, you said "on a schedule". Does that mean "every friday" or can you not tell us the schedule ahead of time, so we have to keep checking back here?

I get asked "So when is the next assignment?" at a rate of about once an hour, and I don't have an answer as I'm still planning.
I would like to hear some opinions on these things:
* Is it better if I go out of my way to fit assignments so the deadline is during a weekend?
* How much time between assignments is needed? (#days between deadline close and new task starting)
* How far in advance should I announce the starting time? (no info on what the assignment is, just the starting time and date)
I have my own answers to these questions, but I want to know how you people feel so I can make adjustments where needed.

A regular scheduled ending would be nice.
I don't think you'd need too much time inbetween assignments, maybe a day or 2.
Don't care when its annouced.

Can i reccomend increasing it to about a week inbetween? Allows people who might be on holiday the best chance, avoids burnout, and gives people time to work on other projects.
